There is a law of gratitude, and it is . . . the natural principle that action and reaction are always equal and in opposite directions. The grateful outreaching of your mind in thankful praise to supreme intelligence is a liberation or expenditure of force. It cannot fail to reach that to which it is addressed, and the reaction is an instantaneous movement toward you.

Do not talk about your greatness; you are really, in essential nature, no greater than those around you.

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.

... because all things have contributed to your advancement, you should include all things in your gratitude.

Intellect helps us to see the best means and manner of doing the right thing, but intellect never shows us the right thing.

Act now. There is never any time but now, and there never will be any time but now.

Resolve that you will now lay aside all else and concentrate upon the attainment of conscious unity with God.
