Today has been very revealing. My thinking that knowledge is the meaning of life has been turned on its head.

How do you grow as a person?  How do you become the person you want to be? How do you make an idea come alive?  How do you achieve your purpose?  

“You must first be able to imagine it.  What kind of attention do you place on your desires?  Imagination is more important than knowledge.  Knowledge is limited.  Imagination encircles the world.1  Logic will get you from point A to B, but imagination will take you everywhere.  Make your future dream a present fact by assuming the feeling of the wish fulfilled.  

That which you feel yourself to be you are.  And you are given that which you are.  Assume the feeling that would be yours were you already in possession of your wish.  And your wish must be realized.  So live in the feeling of being the one you want to be, and that you shall be.  If this assumption about what you’d like to become is persisted in until it becomes your dominant feeling then attainment of your ideal is absolutely inevitable.  

You must first assume the feeling of a wish fulfilled in all aspects of your life.  Don’t allow anyone else’s influence to tell you what is possible or not possible for you.  If you advance confidently in the direction of your own dreams and endeavor to live the life that you have imagined.  You will meet with unexpected success.  It will chase after you.  

If you can place into your imagination what it is that you’d like to attract and begin to feel it.  You will start retraining your unconscious mind.  Your subconscious mind responds to what you suggest to it.  96-97% of everything that you do is done as  result of your subconscious mind.  And when your subconscious mind gets programmed it responds to whatever it is your conscious mind has placed into it.  This is the secret and the mystery.  You are the creator.”2
