Carnegiean Advice

Andrew Carnegie was a Scottish-American industrialist who led the enormous expansion of the American steel industry in the late 19th century. At the turn of the 20th century, he was one of the wealthiest men in the world. Incidentally, he was the one who inspired Napolean Hill, to undertake the study of successful men which eventually ended in the publication of "Think and Grow Rich".

He said, "Any idea that is held in the mind, that is emphasised, that is either feared or revered, begins at once to clothe itself in the most convenient and appropriate physical form available." This is an excellent quote to ponder over multiple times. It has the essence of the movie "The Secret" embedded in it.

Hold on to the image of what you DO WANT, and it will begin to move into form. This happens because you will be motivated to take the actions necessary for it's realization. If it is held consistently, you will move towards it consistently. When you begin to fear , doubt and worry about the eventual outcome, you replace this image with the polar opposite, and this in turn with paralyse you and move you into procrastination, inaction and so on.

Either ways, the image you give your thought and feelings to the most will be realized by you. So make sure you pause and look at the way you are approaching your goal. Is it with calm confidence or is it with fear and worry?
