Happy Week Before Thanksgiving! Just think, this time next week most of us will experience great food and family as we celebrate a holiday of giving Thanks. This week will have 2 posts from our reading of Think and Grow Rich. Today will include questions from Chapter 12 and tomorrow will include Chapter 13. After this week, we will not only be caught up but will be one step closer to completion.
Chapter 12: The Subconscious Mind is indicated as the Eleventh Step Towards Riches. It is a step and Chapter of the power of our thoughts. It reminds us to keep our minds focused on our ultimate objective, the desire to achieve the goal which we identified at the beginning of this journey together. For the first time, I am sharing my desire – Complete my 1st book. That’s what I am working on when I have a few moments to spare and no one around me. It is a slower process than I once imagined but I am concentrating on ensuring I write everyday and by sticking to that practice, I find I am making progress. How about you, are you making progress with your plan to THINK AND GROW RICH?
Here are my favorite quotes of Chapter 12:
“Man can create nothing which he does not first conceive in THOUGHT” – Napoleon Hill
“Positive and negative emotions cannot occupy the mind at the same time” – Napoleon Hill
