00:01We become what we think about

00:05We become what we think about

00:10We become what we think about

00:15Now let me say that again

00:17We become what we think about

00:21Throughout all history the great wise men and teachers, philosophers and prophets have disagreed with one another on many different things

00:29It is only on this one point that they are in complete and unanimous agreement

00:35Listen to what Marcus Aurelius, the great Roman Emperor said

00:38He said, a man's life is what his thoughts make of it

00:42A man's life is what his thoughts make of it

00:45Disraeli said this

00:47Everything comes if a man will only wait

00:50I have brought myself by long meditation to the conviction that a human being with a settled purpose must accomplish it

00:57And that nothing can resist a will that will stay even existence for its fulfillment

01:03We become what we think about

01:10We become what we think about

01:16We become what we think about

01:21Now let me say that again

01:23We become what we think about

01:27Ralph Waldo Emerson said this

01:30A man is what he thinks about all day long

01:34William James said

01:36The greatest discovery of my generation is that human beings can alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind

01:44And he also said

01:45We need only in cold blood act as if the thing in question were real

01:50And it will become infallibly real by growing into such a connection with our life

01:55That it will become real

01:57It will become so knit with habit and emotion that our interest in it will be those which characterize belief

02:03He also said this

02:06If you only care enough for a result

02:08You will almost certainly attain it

02:11If you wish to be rich

02:13You will be rich

02:14If you wish to be learned

02:16You will be learned

02:17If you wish to be good

02:18You will be good

02:20Only you must then really wish these things

02:25And wish them exclusively

02:27And not wish at the same time

02:30A hundred other incompatible things

02:32Just as strong

02:34We become

02:35What we think about

02:38We become

02:41What we think about

02:43We become

02:46What we think about

02:48Now let me say that again

02:50We become

02:51What we think about

02:54In the Bible you read

02:57In Mark 9 23

02:59If thou canst believe

03:01All things are possible

03:03To him that believe in

03:05Dr. Norman Vincent Peale said this

03:08This is one of the greatest laws in the universe

03:11Fervently do I wish I had discovered it as a very young man

03:14It dawned upon me much later in life

03:16And I found it to be one of the greatest

03:18If not my greatest discovery

03:20Outside of my relationship to God

03:22And the great law briefly and simply stated is that if you think in negative terms

03:26You will get negative results

03:28If you think in positive terms

03:30You will achieve positive results

03:32That is the simple fact

03:34Which is at the basis of an astonishing law of prosperity and success

03:37In three words

03:39Believe and succeed

03:41Believe and succeed

03:43Believe and succeed

03:45Believe and succeed

03:47Believe and succeed

03:51Believe and succeed

03:53Believe and succeed

03:55Believe and succeed

03:57Believe and succeed

03:59Believe and succeed
