Wealth-culture consists in making constructive use of the people and things in your environment.
First, get a clear mental picture of what you want. If your present business or profession is not the one most suitable to your talents and tastes, decide upon the one which is most suitable and determine to get into that business or profession and to achieve the very greatest success in it. Get a clear idea of what you want to do, and get a mental concept of the utmost success in that business or profession and determine that you will attain that. Give a great deal of time to forming this concept or mental picture. The more clear and definite it is the easier will be your work. The man who is not quite sure what he wants to build will put up a wobbling and shaky structure.
Know what you want, and keep the picture of it in the background on your mind night and day. Let it be like a picture of the wall on your room, always in your consciousness, night and day. And then begin to move toward it. Remember that if you have not the fully developed talent now, you can develop it as you go along. You can surely do what you want to do.
It is quite likely that at present you cannot do the thing you want to do because you are not in the right environment, and have not the necessary capital. But this does not hinder you from beginning to move toward the right environment and from beginning to acquire capital. Remember that you move forward only by doing what you can in your present environment. Suppose that you have only capital enough to operate a newsstand, and your great desire is to own a department store. Do not get the idea that there is some magical method by which you can successfully operate a department store on a newsstand capital. There is, however, a mental science method by which you can so operate a newsstand as to certainly cause it to grow into a department store. Consider that your newsstand is one department of the store you are going to have. Fix your mind on the department store and begin to assimilate the rest of it. You will get it, if you make every act and thought constructive.
To make every act and thought constructive, every one must convey the idea of increase. Steadily hold in mind the thought of advancement for yourself. Know that you are advancing toward what you want, and act and speak in this faith. Then every word and act will convey this idea of advancement and increase to others and they will be drawn to you. Always remember that what all people are seeking for is increase.
First, study over the facts in regard to the great abundance until you know that there is wealth for you, and that you do not have to take this wealth from any one else. Avoid the competitive spirit. You can readily see that if there is limitless abundance, there is enough for you without robbing anyone else. Then, knowing that it is the purpose of nature that you should have what you want, reflect upon the fact that you can get it only by acting. Consider that you can act only upon your present environment, and do not try to act now upon environment of the future. Then remember that in acting upon your present environment, you must make every act a success in itself. And that in doing this, you must hold the purpose to get what you want. You can hold this purpose only as you get a clear mental picture of what you want. Be sure that you have that. Also, remember that your actions will not have dynamic moving power, unless you have an unwavering faith that you will get what you want.
Form a clear mental picture of what you want. Hold the purpose to get it. Do everything perfectly, not in servile spirit, but because you are a master mind. Keep unwavering faith in your ultimate attainment of your goal, and you cannot fail to move forward.
