I BELIEVE one can get rich if he goes about it the right way," a young husband admitted candidly, "but it takes so long to make the grade that it requires more ambition than I have to put it over."
This statement is not unusual, although not many people will admit their weakness as frankly as this one did; but the fact remains that most people feel that the road to success is a tough one—and they hesitate getting started. Suppose someone gave you a large check of six figures or more; you would feel that you had suddenly become rich, wouldn't you? Of course, it would be a few days before you could use the money because a check of that size would have to clear through your bank before you would be allowed to draw against it. So, there would be a few days when you would feel rich without actually being so. You would feel rich because you would know that the money would soon be available to you. What the principles in this book have given you is not a check or a specific amount—but a signed blank check; a check which
you may fill out for any amount you wish, i.e., any amount your beliefs can see. These principles have worked time and time gain; they are working—and they will continue to work. This being true, are you not rich right now? Does it matter whether or not you have money? Does it necessarily mean that your bills must be paid before you are rich? No.' Because you
know that with this blank check you can satisfy any desire you may have for material possessions, as well as clearing off any indebtedness you may have.
One of the readers of my book, I Will, became imbued with the spirit of success and was determined to prove that he could be a success.
His first problem was his clothing. He knew that to be successful he should appear successful, but the trousers of his one business suit was shiny. The heels on his shoes were worn down. His few shirts had been mended many times—and in places where the patches could be seen.
You now know that when you develop a success consciousness, constructive ideas begin to flow. This proved true with this chap.
He visited a small clothing store and, after meeting the owner, frankly explained his plight. He said he needed a complete head to toe outfit and wanted to know if there was a way he could obtain this wearing apparel and pay for it with service; of some kind.
The owner asked him if he could erect some shelving that he needed for additional items of haberdashery. The man said that he had done much carpentry work and was sure he could please. It was not long before this fellow could make a good impression and was ready to achieve success.
Obtaining a position selling investment securities, he did well that he became sales manager with an income of nearly $2,000 monthly.
This man did not become a success after climbing to a higher income position; he was a success the moment he began see himself as a success. With the start he now has it is safe to predict he will become a man of power and wealth.
