they are attracted to the acorn; because of the nucleus or the
patterned plan which rests within the seed。
Now; unlike the human creature; the acorn does not have
the ability to change its vibratory rate。 It can therefore only
grow into what it has been programmed to grow into; namely;
an oak tree。 You are much like the acorn in many respects。
For example; you are also a 〃seed;〃 relative to the whole
scheme of things。 However; the difference between you and the
acorn is that since you are a cocreator; you can choose your
own programming。 Therefore; the image you choose to hold;
on the screen of your conscious mind; and plant deeply in the
treasury of your subconscious mind is the patterned plan or
the nucleus which determines what you will eventually grow
into。 It dictates the vibration you will be in and also controls
what you will attract to you and what you will repel。
This is an orderly universe; nothing happens by accident。
The images which you plant in your marvelous mind instantly
set up an attractive force; which governs your results in life。
You must remember though; if your image is continually
fluctuating; you will continually be growing into something
different and that sets in motion a most chaotic process。
Unfortunately; those individuals who are unaware of these
very exact laws are planting images of plenty in their minds
one minute and then images of poverty the next。 They are
continually 〃switching〃 vibrations; so they are attracting good
things one minute and then bad things the next。 The sad truth
is; the vast majority of people spend their entire lives
oscillating between these two extreme positions; with the
resulting effect that their lives bee disordered and chaotic
to the 〃nth〃 degree。
Although it is true that everything you will ever want is
already here; it is up to you to get into harmony with it。
Clearly; you will never get into harmony with prosperity; if you
insist upon holding images of lack and limitation in the
storehouse of your marvelous mind。 Since you are always
magized toward something; it follows it can never be
anyone else's fault; when something es into your life you
supposedly do not want。 Understand you have ordered it and
it is being delivered to you; right on schedule!
The RiskTakers
The days of defending your present 〃possessions〃 and
〃positions〃 are gone forever。 Therefore; from this day forward;
you will never have to concern yourself with such problematic
issues as 〃maintaining your present job〃; or 〃keeping up your
current standard of living。〃 Instead; you will put the things
which 〃can go wrong〃 on the defensive; and you will put the
things which 〃must go right〃; in ready formation for the
attack。 As of today; you are a dynamic; vigorous risktaker;
whose eyes are always turned toward your strengths and
assets; rather than toward your weaknesses and liabilities。
Henceforth; you will wake up in the morning; thinking only of
〃ways to do the things you want to do〃; rather than waking up
thinking of 〃all the reasons why you cannot do those things。〃
As of today; you will think repeatedly of the many
achievements which you are going to acplish in the future;
that are vastly superior to anything you have ever done in the
past。 Clearly; these are the results that can only be obtained if
you are first willing to take some kind of a risk。 Believe me;
once you undertake this process; it won't be long before you
start winningand in a big way。 You should understand;
however; that as you bee increasingly involved in the risk
taking process; you will find yourself forced to draw upon
resources which you previously didn't even realize you
possessed。 At first; this may prove very frightening to you。
Nevertheless; you must always remember you will never hear
of; read about; or see anyone who achieves anything of
greatness in his or her own life; without first taking some kind
of a risk。
As a case in point; just consider the monumental risks
which all of our great religious leaders have undertaken
during the course of their heroic lives。 Then stop and reflect
upon the enormous risks which all of our great business
leaders have also undertaken; during the span of their
illustrious careers。 Finally; as you seriously meditate upon
these stupendous acplishments; you will bee
increasingly aware of the fact that you too must bee a
risktaker for you to develop the greatness you were born with。
Moreover; you should understand; that in truth; no genuine
satisfaction in life can ever be attained by you or anyone else;
who simply refuses to take risks。 For the life of anyone who
chooses to live with extreme caution will never amount to
anything more than a succession of dull; soporific days;
continuing on; without interruption。
The Diving Board Analogy
To help you grasp the full implication of what I am
saying; consider the following analogy。 Just cast your mind
back to the time when you were a child and attempt to recall
the degree to which you admired 〃the neighborhood kid〃 who
went right up the ladder; and dived off the high diving board
without any hesitation whatsoever。 Then see if you can recall
the feelings which you harbored in yourself; as you watched
him take that first 〃risky〃 leap into the water below。 If you are
like most of us; you probably lost just a little bit of your own
selfrespect at that time; until finally; out of sheer
embarrassment; you too mustered up enough courage to
jump。 Finally; see if you can recollect how good you felt once
you actually made the plunge and proved to the world that you
could do it too。
Now that you have taken your mind on this mental
journey through your past; bring it forward to the present
time。 Let it bee fully aware of the legions of men and
women today wholike the young child looking longingly at the
high diving boardwould dearly love to quit their jobs; set out
on an independent path and do their own thing。 However; due
to their overwhelming fear of failure; these unfortunate people
never quite work up enough courage to step out and actually
take the plunge。 As a result; such individuals miss out on
many of the opportunities that life affords us all; and what is
even sadder; they never get a chance to plumb 〃the depths〃 of
their own innate resources。 Since they are afraid they might
not make it; afraid they might lose; afraid they might fail; they
simply choose to maintain the status quo and do nothing。 The
irony is; however; that even if a person should assiduously
attempt to avoid all risks; he or she will still inevitably end up
failing from time to time! But the point is; so what? What
difference does it really make? After all; 〃failing〃 does not make
us a 〃failure〃; and the only time we do bee a failure is
when we decide to stop trying any more。 Therefore; even if we
should falter along the way; we never really fail because we
always retain the capacity to try once more。
Flip Wilson's Story
Flip Wilson; the famous edian; is best known for his
ability to make people laugh。 But here is what he said in a
somewhat more serious vein; about his own experience with
the risktaking process。 〃I fell down and got up; I fell down and
got up。 For sixteen years I did practically nothing else but fall
down and get up。〃
Even so; do you think Flip Wilson ever thought of himself
as a failure? You bet your life he didn't。 For if he had; he
would never have found the courage to try 〃just one more
time;〃 and you and I would probably have never even heard
his name!
You should understand; at this juncture; that as soon as
you seriously set a big goal for yourself; you are going to
bee involved in a process of risktaking which will add a
dimension of excitement; indeed a whole new flavor to the
course of your life。 But at the same time you should be aware
that as you start engaging in more risktaking behavior; the
majority of people will be trying to avoid it 〃at all costs。〃 In
other words; instead of taking meaningful risks; most people
will continue to ensure th
