This is the “Iron
Law” of human destiny. This law says that we live in
a world governed by
law, not chance. It says that everything happens for a reason, whether or not we know what it is. Every
effect, success or failure, wealth or poverty, has a specific cause or causes. Every
cause or action has an effect or consequence of some kind or another, whether we
can see it, or whether we like it or not.
This law says that
all achievement, wealth, happiness, prosperity and success are the direct and
indirect effects or results of specific causes or actions. What this means is that,
if you can be clear about the effect or result you want, you can probably achieve
it. You can study others who have accomplished the same goal, and by doing what
they did, you can get the same results.
The Law of Cause and
Effect applies to money as much as to any other subject. This law says that financial
success is an effect. As such, it proceeds from certain, specific causes. When you
identify these causes and implement them in your own life and activities, you will
get the same effects that hundreds of thousands, and even millions of others have
gotten. You can acquire whatever amount of money you really want if you will just
do what others have done before you to achieve the same results. And if you don’t,
you won’t. It is as simple as that.
The most important
expression of this universal law is that, “Thoughts are causes and conditions are
effects.”
Put another way,
“Thought is creative.” Your thoughts are the primary creative forces in your life.
You create your entire world by the way you think. All the people and situations
of your life have been created by your own thinking. And when you change your thinking,
you change your life, sometimes in seconds!
The most important
principle of personal or business success is simply this: You become what you think
about most of the time.
It is not what happens
to you but how you think about what happens
to you that determines
how you feel and react. It is not the world outside of you that dictates your circumstances
or conditions. It is the world inside of
you that creates the
conditions of your life. Specifically, it is the way you
think about money
and about your financial situation that largely determines your financial conditions
today.
Accurate diagnosis
is half the cure. Look at the most important parts
of your life - your
family, your health, your work, your financial situation, and observe the cause-effect
relationships between what you think, say, feel and do and the results you are getting.
Be honest with yourself.
