Your dominant thoughts produce the conditions of your surroundings. What you are thinking and feeling most of the time will become what you experience. Your life will become what you affirm, through the use of repetitive, constant affirmations designed to create what you truly desire.

Affirm what you desire by stating it as if it were already here-now. Don't say, "I'm going to become healthy." This places the condition you desire somewhere off in the future. Instead, state "I am wealthy", even if your not. Remember, the subconscious does not know the difference between a truth and a lie. Constant repetition of the affirmation will bring the situation to the npresent....perhaps not right away, but in due time.

Always affirm something in the positive. Don't focus on the negative. Don't even mention it. When affirming, act as if the desired good has arrived. Focusing on the fact you have a headache will only intensify it. Instead, state "I feel fine."

You can write your affirmations down or you can speak them. Many people do a combination of both until such time as they have their statements memorized. Speaking it allows the subconscious mind to take the affirmation to heart right away and begin the response process. Reading written words or thinking the affirmation silently is a bit slower process, because your mind must assimilate the words and translate them into inner speech.

Sometimes however, it is not convenient to speak the words. In that case, writing or thinking them will have to suffice and it will still work, but slower learning, memorizing, remembering, and the likes, is one characteristic that distinguishes man from any other being in the world. The nature of the human mind is like that of a mirror; having different functions and features: (a) open and vast, (b) reflects in full and precise details, (c) unbiased towards any impression, (d) distinguishes clearly, and (e) potential for having everything already accomplished.

Open and Vast

Martin H. Fischer (1879-1962), a German-born U.S. physician and author, quoted "All the world is a laboratory to the inquiring mind." Isn't it ironic how small the human brain where mind processes undergo is, and yet it encloses matters in as huge as the universe? That's how open and vast the mind can be.

It can consist of things as trivial as the number of moles you have in your body, or as essential as how many dosages of cough syrup you need to take in when you are sick. It can create illusion or reality, bring delight or sadness, trigger conflict or peace, and generate love or hatred.

And most importantly, it can make you, by influencing you how to be the best of who you are, or break you, by covering you with all the fears, embarrassment, and shame you least need in going through everyday.

The exposure of the mind to practically 'anything under the sun' keeps it from hiding any secrets the world unfolds from us. But again, all information that we can easily gather from outside is not always being marked off by the society - which is good and which is bad, which is right and which is wrong, or which is divine and which is evil. Therefore, the mind, as an all-encompassing system, accesses everything and yet restricts us from nothing.

Indeed, we have to agree with Fischer that the world is just a laboratory of the inquiring mind. A gigantic world of mind exists to which we are almost totally unexposed. This whole world is made by the mind. Our minds made this up and put these things together. Every bolt and nut was put in by one after the other's mind. This whole world is mind's world, the product of mind.

Reflects in Full and Precise Details

In her outstanding book, Choose the Happiness Habit, Pam Golden writes: "Take the story of two brothers who are twins. One grows up to be an alcoholic bum. The other becomes an extremely successful businessman. When the alcoholic is asked why he became a drunk, he replies, 'My father was a drunk.' When the successful businessman is asked why he became successful, he says, 'My father was a drunk.' Same background. Same upbringing. Different choices."

The brothers chose different thoughts regarding the identical experience they've been in. One took the fact that their father was a drunk as an example for him to imitate; thus, making him one too. In contrast, the other brother thought the same idea as something not to be mimicked, making him doing the opposite thing until he became

Whenever we look at the outside world, or just any of the things it consists of, we tend to have a very strong impression of its substantiality. What we probably don't realize is that the strong impression is merely our own mind's interpretation of what it sees. We think that the strong, solid reality really exists outside, and when we look within ourselves, perhaps we feel empty.

This is a common misconception among people. The wrong mental attitude that fails to realize that the strong impression that appears to truly exist outside of us is actually projected by our own mind.

Everything we experience - feelings, sensations, even shapes and colors - comes from our minds.
