The conscious mind forms beliefs and opinions from the evidence of the senses or the perceived outer world
The creative power within each of us accepts as true that which the conscious mind impresses upon it
My creative power takes those ideas, which are thought of with feeling, and projects them in my outer world. It is important to remember that not all thoughts are creative
Only those that are believed to be true or which are joined with feeling create the circumstances and events that I will encounter
First, I must be like the watchman at the gate. I must watch every thought that contains I Am. If I am observant, I will see that I have created every circumstance and experience of my life
Sea of Ideas
Each of us is subjected to a sea of ideas. We listen to the radio, watch the news on television, or hear some gossip
If what I observe calls forth an emotion, I have reacted and, thereby, planted a seed that will sprout at some future time
Thoughts do not recede into the past. Rather, they advance into the future to confront me so that I may see that which I have planted, either wisely or unwisely
It is a worthwhile exercise to awake in the morning and imagine myself at the end of my day, having accomplished all that I wanted and feeling happy and contended
If there is a situation that I will encounter later in the day that is of concern to me, spend a few moments imagining the outcome I wish to experience
These imaginal activities will not advance into my future to reveal the harvest I so wisely planted
Daily Revisions
That which is confronting me in my world now is the result of my past thoughts, beliefs, feelings, and imaginal activity
These appearances will continue in being as long as I give them life through my conscious awareness of them. I must disregard the evidence of my senses as it pertains to any undesirable condition in my life
I must imagine and feel that I have already attained that which I want to experience rather than that which I do not want to continue in being
This may appear difficult, yet I have probably exercised this principle unconsciously to produce negative results
