“When Henley wrote the prophetic lines, “I am the Master of my Fate, I am the Captain of my Soul,” he should have informed us that we are the Master of our Fate, The Captains of our Souls, because we have the power to control our thoughts.
“He should have told us that the ether in which this little earth floats, in which we move and have our being, is a form of energy moving at an inconceivably high rate of vibration and that the ether is filled with a form of universal power which ADAPTS itself to the nature of the thoughts we hold in our minds; and INFLUENCES us, in natural ways, to transmute our thoughts into their physical equivalent.
“…he should have told us, with great emphasis, that this power makes no attempt to discriminate between destructive thoughts and constructive thoughts…
“He should have told us, too, that our brains become magnetized with the dominating thoughts which we hold in our minds, and, by means with which no man is familiar, these “magnets” attract to us the forces, the people, the circumstances of life which harmonize with the nature of our dominating thoughts.”
~ Napoleon Hill, Think and Grow Rich, (the original, unabridged edition)
Right there, my friend, you have a perfectly detailed description of the Law of Attraction. Not only that, but you have how and why your mind can be your best friend or your worst enemy.
So, have you taken all that in? You understand that it’s your mind, right? And that you, whether consciously or not, are directing it. Did you know that? I only ask because some people don’t. And that’s a scary thing! Imagine possessing an incredible, unlimited power and using it against yourself because you simply didn’t know.
Well, all I can say is don’t let that be you, my friend.
