Me, Maisy my dog and three canvases.
Plus some quotes from our brother James Allen for my meditation on this day and yours also if you wish.
“The outer conditions of a person's life will always be found to be
harmoniously related to his inner state...Men do not attract that which
they want, but that which they are.”
The law of harvest is
to reap more than you sow. Sow an act, and you reap a habit. Sow a habit
and you reap a character. Sow a character and you reap a destiny.

“A man only begins to be a man when he ceases to whine and revile, and
commences to search for the hidden justice which regulates his life. And
he adapts his mind to that regulating factor, he ceases to accuse
others as the cause of his condition, and builds himself up in strong
and noble thoughts; ceases to kick against circumstances, but begins to
use them as aids to his more rapid progress, and as a means of the
hidden powers and possibilities within himself.”
“Cherish your visions.
Cherish your ideals.
Cherish the music that stirs in your heart, the beauty that forms in your mind, the loveliness that drapes your purest thoughts.
For
out of them will grow all delightful conditions, all heavenly
environment, of these, if you but remain true to them, your world will
at last be built.”
“The more tranquil a man becomes, the greater is his success, his
influence, his power for good. Calmness of mind is one of the beautiful
jewels of wisdom.”
“You are today where your thoughts have brought you;
you will be tomorrow where your thoughts take you.”
“Circumstance does not make the man; it reveals him to himself.”
“He who would accomplish little need sacrifice little; he who
would achieve much must sacrifice much. He who would attain highly must
sacrifice greatly.”
“Do not dwell upon the sins and mistakes of yesterday so
exclusively as to have no energy and mind left for living rightly today,
and do not think that the sins of yesterday can prevent you from living
purely today.”
“The dreamers are the saviors of the world. As the visible world
is sustained by the invisible, so men, through all their trials and sins
and sordid vocations, are nourished by the beautiful visions of their
solitary dreamers.”
“Men are anxious to improve their circumstances, but are unwilling to improve themselves.”
“As a man thinketh in his heart, so shall he be”
“A particular train of thought persisted in, be it good or bad,
cannot fail to produce its results on the character and circumstances. A
man cannot directly choose his circumstances, but he can choose his
thoughts, and so indirectly, yet surely, shape his circumstances. ”
“A noble and God-like character is not a thing of favor or chance,
but is the natural result of continued effort in right thinking, the
effect of long-cherished association with God-like thoughts.”
“The world steps aside for the man who knows where he is going”
“The visions you glorify in your mind,
The ideals you enthrone in your heart..
This you will build your life by...
This you will become.”
“Calmness of mind is one of the beautiful jewels of wisdom. It is
the result of long and patient effort in self-control. Its presence is
an indication of ripened experience, and of a more than ordinary
knowledge of the laws and operations of thought.”
“To Desire is to Obtain to Aspire is to Achieve”
“The law of harvest is to reap more than you sow. Sow an act, and
you reap a habit. Sow a habit and you reap a character. Sow a character
and you reap a destiny. ”
“There can be no progress nor achievement without sacrifice, and a
man's worldly success will be by the measure that he sacrifices his
confused animal thoughts, and fixes his mind on the development of his
plans, and the strengthening of his resolution and self-reliance.”
“A man becomes calm in the measure that he understands himself as a
thought-evolved being. For such knowledge necessitates the
understanding of others as the result of thought, and as he develops a
right understanding, and sees ever more clearly the internal relations
of things by the action of cause and effect, he ceases to fuss, fume,
worry, and grieve. He remains poised, steadfast, serene.”
“Dream lofty dreams, and as you dream, so shall you become. Your
vision is the promise of what you shall one day be; your ideal is the
prophecy of what you shall at last unveil.”
“Man is made or unmade by himself. By the right choice he ascends.
As a being of power, intelligence, and love, and the lord of his own
thoughts, he holds the key to every situation...”
The law of harvest is
to reap more than you sow. Sow an act, and you reap a habit. Sow a habit
and you reap a character. Sow a character and you reap a destiny.
