WHEN RICHES BEGIN TO COME THEY COME SO QUICKLY, IN SUCH GREAT ABUNDANCE, THAT ONE WONDERS WE HAVE BEEN HIDING DURING ALL THOSE LEAN YEARS.
This is an astounding statement and all the more so, when we take into consideration the popular belief, that riches only to those who work hard and long.
When you begin to GROW RICH. You will observe that riches begin with a state of mind, with definiteness of purpose, with little or no hard work. You and every other person, ought to be interested in knowing how to acquire that state of mind which will attract riches.
Observe very closely, as soon as you master the principles of this philosophy and inspiration begin to follow the instructions for applying those principles, your financial status will begin to improve and everything you touch will begin to transmute itself into an asset for your benefit. Impossible? Not at all!One of the main weaknesses of mankind is the average man's familiarity with the word "impossible.” He knows all the rules which will NOT work. He knows all the things which CANNOT be done. This book was written for those who seek the rules which have made others successful and are willing to stake everything on those rules.
“A great many years ago I purchased a fine dictionary. The first thing I did with it was to turn to the word "impossible,” and neatly clip it out of the book. That would not be an unwise thing for you to do.”
Success comes to those who become SUCCESS CONSCIOUS.
Failure comes to those who indifferently allow themselves to become FAILURE CONSCIOUS.
The object of this article is to help all who seek it, to learn the art of changing their minds from FAILURE CONSCIOUSNESS to SUCCESS CONSCIOUSNESS.
Another weakness found in altogether too many people in the habit of measuring everything and everyone, by their own impressions and beliefs. Some who will read this will believe that no one can GROW RICH. They cannot think in terms of riches, because their thought habits have been steeped in poverty, want, misery, failure, and defeat.
Millions of people look at the achievements of Henry Ford after he has arrived and envy him, because of his good fortune or luck, or genius, or whatever it is that they credit for Ford’s fortune. Perhaps one person in every hundred thousand know the secret of Ford's success and those who do know are too modest (bahut maamoolee), or too reluctant (bahut anichchhuk), to speak of it, because of its simplicity. A single transaction will illustrate the “secret” perfectly.
He chose to build an engine with the entire eight cylinders cast in one block and instructed his engineers to produce a design for the engine. The design was placed on paper, but the engineers agreed, to a man, that it was simply impossible to cast an eight-cylinder gas engine block in one piece.
Ford said, “Produce it anyway."
“But," they replied, “it's impossible!"
“Go ahead," Ford commanded, “and stay on the job until you succeed no matter how much time is required.”
The engineers went ahead. There was nothing else for them to do if they were to remain on the Ford staff. Six mon went by, nothing happened. Another six months passed a still nothing happened. The engineers tried every conceivable plan to carry out the orders, but the thing seemed out of question; "impossible!”
At the end of the year Ford checked with his engineers and again they informed him they had found no way to carry out his orders.
“Go right ahead," said Ford, “I want it and I'll have it."
They went ahead and then as if by a stroke of magic, the secret was discovered.
The Ford DETERMINATION had won once more!
This story may not be described with minute accuracy, but the sum and substance of it are correct. Deduce from it, you who wish to GROW RICH, the secret of the Ford millions, if you can.
You'll not have to look very far.
