We should convince ourselves that our pay-check is a
reflection of our inner conviction of our worth, plus our determination to
achieve it; that the great Ocean of Subjective Mind will produce what we want,
when we go after it with a single mind; that neither hell nor high water can
keep us from getting it, that conditions, depressions, shortage of jobs do not
apply to us - they apply only to those who fear them; that we have been endowed
with the same Mind that has always brought success to the prosperous, and that
our mind has great creative power because it is the Mind that created the
universe, and all the wealth that is in it. ― Ernest Holmes Power for Good
Getting means to me both
receiving and understanding with empathy. So, we are getting prosperity when we
receive cheerfully every ounce of pleasure in every minute we are alive and we
are getting prosperity when we understand with relaxed ease that any person’s
prosperity enhances our own. We expand our experience of prosperity and our
ability to live fully whenever we know the truth that prosperity belongs to all
of us and is readily available to the one who will begin where he or she is and
use what he or she has fearlessly and joyfully.
We buy complete freedom with
persistent coinage of faith as thoughts and actions, which affirm, “I can; I
will; I am.” Even the rare born billionaire must use it wisely or lose it. The
rest of us with nothing to lose and everything to gain, begin where we are and
idea by idea, actively vision and pursue our dreams and to the degree that we
accept them, we get them as reality and daily experience.
Countless have reflected on the
manna in the desert and on receiving their daily bread. We need to praise our
constant supply and then settle down with a clear understanding that right in
front of us and all around us there is a promised land of plenty ready for us
to receive it but in order for us to get it, we must see it and with faith
fearlessly confront any remaining doubts or beliefs that stand in the way. And,
then, we must act daringly with firm resolution and a smile in our hearts as we
do all of the little things that add up to the big things, which make up the
life and actions of a prospering person.
The idea of self-made prosperity
in money and love is fabled in poem and proverb. It is an ancient idea that we
find in sacred scripture and scratched on the walls of ancient caves and
buildings. I think that we have always known the possibility and too many have
failed to prosper because they thought some luck or favor of the gods, which
they did not believe they possessed made it happen.
The favor of the gods and all
luck result from belief. “I am lucky. My stars favor me. God loves me and wants
me to have great wealth.” These are the statements of the prosperous. They
rarely boast it but inside where they motivate themselves, they affirm their
right to good. It is this affirmative belief and persistent attitude of favor
that attracts the wealth they receive. Receive first in mind and heart and the
getting is easy.
Withholding from none, lifting
everyone in thought, I claim now my right to prosperity because I am alive.
Spirit as my substance, my wisdom, and my creativity, motivates my activity in
right places, ways, and channels to my benefit, which I freely share. In all
ways possible, I get and keep on getting my prosperity and so it is.

“First
you ask definitely for direction, then it will enter your consciousness as a
definite thought; then in your turn you give it back the thought and it will
give you back the thing. It answers every question, solves every problem; it is
the solution to every difficulty.” Ernest Holmes
