Success is a Plane of Mind

by Alfred J Parker

“Success is a plane of mind which is closely associated with self-confidence and initiative.

A lazy mind is never a successful one; one cannot be apathetic and a mere dreamer, and be creative at the same time.

Success requires a disciplined mind and systematic thinking with the vision and positivity of thought. One must have a broader vision including the individual steps that must be taken to the attainment; I do not mean just wishful thinking; millions desire riches but never attain to them.

One must know what one desires to the point where one’s mind becomes adjusted to the realization and thinks in terms of success.

I am not suggesting that one develop the habit of squandering what one receives in the hope that it will be replaced with the generosity of nature, but I do maintain that having the fear of failure and penny pinching are evidence of a purely negative state of mind.

What creates one’s standard of living? Is not everything a plane of mind – – no matter where one happens to be upon the highway of life?

Of course, it creates initiative and ambition, and yet there are millions of people who are seemingly ambitious and put forth a great deal of effort and money and effort in fruitless gambles.  These people are still chasing success, whilst successful ones are those who always had it in their state of thinking; to them, success was a foregone conclusion at an early age.

Success is a plane of mind that one must capture and hold onto that thought and picture regardless of the tests. In time the picture will materialize.

Wherever you are is the place where your mind and thinking have placed you.

It is the doubts that creep in that are the poisonous arrows of negativity and failure. One must be so sure of success that his thinking provides the necessary vision and steps upon the path, and then everything fits into the picture, as in a jigsaw puzzle.

No one would expect to create a symphony on piano strings that were all out of tune, so why attempt to progress toward happiness and success with a discordant mind and confused thinking?

If your utterances are a reflection of your mind and you do not know too much about the mind itself, at least look over your utterances and thoughts; they, in turn, will give you a very definite mental pattern with which to work.

Let us all express only positive and happy thoughts, eliminate the word, “can’t” from our vocabulary, and know that the power of the mind is unlimited both upon the path to constructive progress and to complete degeneration.

You alone are the captain of your own ship – – your fuel is wisdom in positive thinking.”
