Fix upon your ideal of what you wish to make of yourself.

Read less and think more. Read about great things and think about great questions and issues.

You must have absolute faith in your own perceptions of truth. Never act in haste or hurry; be deliberated in everything; wait until you know the true way.

The grateful mind is constantly fixed upon the best. Therefore it tends to become the best. It takes the form or character of the best, and will receive the best.

Gratitude unifies the mind of man with the intelligence of substance, so that man's thoughts are received by the formless.

I surrender myself to conscious unity with the highest.

The more clear and definite you make your picture then,and the more you dwell upon it, bringing out all its delightful details, the stronger your desire will be, and the stronger your desire, the easier it will be to hold your mind fixed upon the picture of what you want.
