“This is what happens. We are all sending out into the Universe a stream of thought; the clearer it is, the better it will manifest; if it becomes doubtful it will not have so clear a manifestation. If it is confused it will manifest only confusion. All this is according to the Law of Cause and Effect, and we cannot change Law. Too often, when we tell our friends what we are going to do, they confuse our thought by laughing about it, of doubting our capacity to do such large a thing. Of course this would not happen if it we were always positive, but when we become the least bit negative it will react and we will lose that power of clearness which is absolutely necessary to do good creative work.
When you want to do a big thing, get the mental pattern, make it perfect, know just what it means, enlarge your thought, keep it to yourself, pass it over to the Creative Power behind all things, wait and listen, and when the impression comes, follow it with assurance. Don’t talk to anyone about it. Never listen to negative talk or pay attention to it and you will succeed where all others fail.”
-Ernest Holmes
