Fools exploit the world; the wise transfigure it.

Learn to shake yourself loose from what the world believes is the only reality.

Your Imagination is YOU yourself, and the world as your Imagination sees it is the real world.

You are already that which you want to be, and your refusal to believe this is the only reason you do not see it.

All transformation begins with an intense, burning desire to be transformed. The first step in the 'renewing of the mind' is desire. You must want to be different [and intend to be] before you can begin to change yourself. Then you must make your future dream a present fact. You do this by assuming the feeling of your wish fulfilled. By desiring to be other than what you are, you can create an ideal of the person you want to be and assume that you are already that person. If this assumption is persisted in until it becomes your dominant feeling, the attainment of your ideal is inevitable.

Be careful of your moods and feelings, for there is an unbroken connection between your feelings and your visible world.

Disregard appearances, conditions, in fact all evidence of your senses that deny the fulfillment of your desire. Rest in the assumption that you are already what you want to be, for in that determined assumption you and your Infinite Being are merged in creative unity, and with your Infinite Being all things are possible.
