Introduction
Would you bring into your life more power· Get the power consciousness. More health· Get the health consciousness. More happiness· Get the happiness consciousness. Live the spirit of these things until they become yours by right. It will then become impossible to keep them from you. The things of the world are fluid to a power within man by which he rules them.
You need not acquire this power. You already have it. But you want to understand it； you want to use it； you want to control it； you want to impregnate① yourself with it， so that you can go forward and carry the world before you.
Day by day， as you go on and on， as you gain momentum②， as your inspiration deepens， as your plans crystallize， as you gain understanding， you will come to realize that this world is no dead pile of stones and timber， but that it is a living thing！ It is made up of the beating hearts of humanity. It is a thing of life and beauty.
It is evident that it requires understanding to work with material of this description， but those who come into this understanding are inspired by a new light， a new force， they gain confidence and greater power each day， they realize their hopes and their dreams come true， life has a deeper， fuller， clearer meaning than before.
1.That much gathers more is true on every plane of existence， and that loss leads to greater loss is equally true.
2. Mind is creative， and conditions， environment and all experiences in life are the result of our habitual or predominant mental attitude.
3. The attitude of mind necessarily depends upon what we think. Therefore， the secret of all power， all achievement and all possession depends upon our method of thinking.
4. This is true because we must “be” before we can “do” and we can “do” only to the extent that we “are，” and what we “are” depends upon what we “think.”
5.We cannot express powers that we do not possess. The only way by which we may secure possession of power is to become conscious of power， and we can never become conscious of power until we learn that all power is from within.
6.There is a world within—a world of thought and feeling and power； of light and life and beauty and， although invisible， its forces are mighty.
7.The world within is governed by mind. When we discover this world we shall find the solution for every problem， the cause for every effect； and since the world within is subject to our control， all laws of power and possession are also within our control.
你想讓你的生活獲得更多的力量嗎？那么，爭取力量意識吧。你想讓你的生活更健康嗎？那么，獲得健康意識吧。你想讓你的生活更快樂嗎？那么，擁有快樂意識吧。在生活中踐行它們的精神，使之為你所有。到時，任何人都無法從你身上將它們奪走。一個人靠一種力量支配著世界上的事物，這些事物就會流向這種力量。
你不必去獲得這種力量，因為你已經(jīng)擁有。但是，你想理解它，利用它，控制它，并且使自身充滿這種力量，這樣你才能夠勇往直前，大獲成功。
一天天，你不斷進(jìn)步，獲得前進(jìn)的動力，靈感不斷深化，計劃更加明確，不斷有所領(lǐng)悟，你會認(rèn)識到這個世界并非一堆毫無生氣的石頭和木頭，而是一個有生命力的東西！它擁有人類跳動的心臟，充滿了生命和美。
顯而易見，要使用本書所描述的材料取得效果，就需要理解，但是能獲得這種理解的人受到一種新視角、新力量的激勵。因此，他們每天增添更多的自信，獲得更大的力量，他們意識到自己的希望和夢想會得以實現(xiàn)，生活比從前會有更深刻、更豐富、更清晰的意義。
1.在生活的各個層面上，多者愈多千真萬確，損者愈損也自有道理。
2.意識具有創(chuàng)造力，生活中的條件、環(huán)境和一切際遇都是我們習(xí)慣性的或者主要心態(tài)的結(jié)果。
3.我們的心態(tài)必然取決于我們的所思。因此，一切力量、成就和財富都取決于我們的思維方式。
4.這其中的道理就在于，我們必須先“是”什么，然后才能“做”什么。我們只能在“是”的范圍內(nèi)，去“做”。我們“是”什么，取決于我們“想”什么。
5.我們不具備的力量就無法表現(xiàn)出來。我們獲取力量的唯一方法，就是要意識到力量。我們只有在明白一切力量都來自內(nèi)在之后，才能意識到力量。
6.存在一個內(nèi)在世界——一個思想、情感和力量的世界；一個光明、生動、美麗的世界，這個世界看不見，但是它的力量是無窮的。
7.內(nèi)在世界受意識的支配。我們發(fā)現(xiàn)了這個世界，我們就能找到每個問題的解決辦法，找到產(chǎn)生結(jié)果的原因。因為內(nèi)在世界受我們的控制，所有力量和財富的法則也在我們的控制之中。
