How To Get Started On Your Dream - 1
It has been said by a wise old sage, that to get started on a
journey is to be half way there. Of course, it is quite obvious
that if one never gets started toward an objective, it is
absolutely impossible to ever reach that objective. It is of
vital importance, therefore, for one to learn how to get
started on ones dream.
Before we pursue the matter of how to get started on ones
dream, let us review briefly some of the fundamentals which
we have been considering.
What is the secret of genuine success? The secret is very
simple.
All anyone has to do to enjoy a large measure of
happiness, health and prosperity is to find a great human
need, to find the answer to filling that need, burn all of his
bridges behind him, and learn to take the answer to that
need through a channel of service in quality and quantity.
It is very important also want to become aware of some of
the very simple mental processes upon which success is
based.
For instance, one must become aware that he is a thinking
being.
The majority of the people of the world are unaware of this
basic fact. Besides being aware that he is a thinking being,
one must become aware that he thinks constantly and that
he thinks only one thought at a time.
At times, it seems that one thinks more than one thought at
a time because it is possible for us to switch our attention
from one thing to another so rapidly that it seems like we're
thinking of three or four thoughts at a time, but basically,
and this has been scientifically proved, one thinks only one
thought at a time.

Next, it is important that one become keenly aware that he
can control the one thought which he thinks at a time
through will power.
He must be aware that nothing on the outside of himself has
any power to control him unless he permits it. This
establishes the seat of control within himself.
Next, it is important that he become keenly aware that he
is, that everyone is what they are, because of the quality
and the quantity of their past thoughts and experiences.
This basic truth is crystallized in the saying of wise old
Solomon, "As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he."
Now, if we are thinking being, if we think constantly, if we
think only one thought at a time, if we can control our
thoughts, if we are what we are because of what we have
permitted ourselves to think throughout the entire past,
then, in order to be anything we want to be and to have
anything we want to have, we can exercise the privilege of
control over our thoughts, and from this moment forward,
direct all of our attention toward that which we want to be
and have. It is obvious that the law of cause and effect will
bring about the fulfillment of our dream.
It is important for us to choose our objectives or our goals.
Due to the peculiar nature of the mental processes,
operating through the conscious mind and the subconscious
mind, it is necessary to choose or definitize our thinking
relative to an objective or a goal. Otherwise, thought
concentration to the point of action toward our objective or
goal is impossible. It is amazing to me that only 2 people
out of 100, according to statistics, have made a definite
decision relative to their goal in life.
Report excerpted from If You Can Count to Four

In order for one to be happy, healthy and prosperous, one
must have an objective.
If he does not, he will not be appropriating the great power
within himself.
It is important that one develop self-confidence.
One must feel strongly that he is capable of doing the things
which are necessary to reach his objective. The basic cause
for a feeling of inferiority is that we're making false
comparisons constantly. We are inclined to compare
ourselves with other people. There is really no basis for
comparison between one person and another, because every
person is an individual.
Everyone is especially and exclusively designed to do
something well and possibly better than anyone else.
Therefore, due to the fact that no two individuals are like or
are designed for the same purpose, there is no intelligent
basis for comparison of one individual with another.
• Realize that you are important.
• Realize that you are designed especially to do a great
service to humanity and that you are different.
• Realize that you are exclusive.
• Realize that you have your own individuality.
• Become keenly aware of your individuality, and your
great purpose, and then dedicate yourself to fulfilling
that great purpose, and you will develop self-
confidence.
In order to get started on our dream, we need to know the
proper concept of money, which is the medium of exchange
used in our economic world today.

Money is a symbol of service. Money is deferred service.
Money isn't affected, service is cause.
So, when we get into the habit of giving most of our
attention to the effect or a symbol, which is money, then we
do not have very much money. However, when we learn to
render a quality and a quantity of service to humanity,
which is cause, like planting in the field of life, we know that
we are compensated in proportion to the quality and
quantity of service rendered, not only in the realm of joy
and living, but in the realm of the finances as well. We will
then have the proper concept of money and money will not
be a power over us but we will be the power over money.
There is a great law in this universe, the law of habit.
It is sometimes referred to as the law of cosmic habit force.
It is a basic universal law, which maintains that when we
have a thought experience or a physical experience, which
occurs over and over and over, it becomes established, and
soon we think the thought or do the act. Therefore, we can
learn to think, automatically or habitually, the thoughts
which will cause us to be successful and we can learn to do
the things, automatically or habitually, which will cause us
to be successful.
There is a way for every individual to obtain the missing
ingredients he needs in order to reach his dream or
objective. I refer to the Mastermind Principle.
Through this mastermind principle, which means the
friendly alliance of two or more people working toward a
common objective, one can obtain every necessary
ingredient, the experience, the skill, the prestige, the time,
the energy and even the money which is necessary to reach
an objective.

Discovering this great principle and learning how to use it,
will eliminate all need for an excuse for not reaching any
objective in life.
Consider, too, the will power, which every individual
possesses.
This will power is not the creative power within ourselves,
but it is the power to direct our attention and to control our
attention, at any time we choose, toward that which we
desire to be or desire to have.
Once we used this will power for a brief period of time,
controlling our attentions and our thought processes along
constructive and desirable lines, the power of habit takes
over and becomes established, and then we automatically
do the things or say the things and think the things which
make it possible for us to reach our objectives.
Another very important factor in getting started on your
dream and having the dream fulfilled is to become
thoroughly acquainted with the marvelous imagination
which every individual possesses.
It is the instrument or the faculty to design and experience a
new idea. Our ability to definitize a new idea, is like
planting the seed of life in the soil of life. When we imagine
and definitize an idea and plant it in the subconscious, the
great law of sowing and reaping will cause the idea to grow
and become a reality.
So, accept the challenge to constantly learn to use this
wonderful ability to imagine. It is an ability which gives us
the power to us so that we already are what we want to be
and that we already have what we want to have. It is the
power which makes all desires obtainable.

The habit of going the second mile is one of the most
important principles of success.
It is unfortunate, but the majority of people in the world
today are not in the habit of going the second mile. Going
the second mile means rendering more service than that
which is usually expected in any situation and rendering
that extra service with a positive attitude. Every great
individual in history discovered this principle and made it a
habit. They always looked for an opportunity to do more
than that which was usually expected and perform that
extra service with a positive mental attitude. One of the
finest ways in the world for you to realize your dream
fulfilled is to acquire this marvelous habit of going the
second mile.
It is vitally important that one learn the power of the
emotion or the power of feeling, because when the
conscious mind uses the imagination, and definitizes an
idea, that idea must be felt.
One must feel strongly about an idea, otherwise it will not
be impressed upon the subconscious and consequently it
will not express itself in one's experience. So, if one believes
in an idea of which he is designing with his imagination, the
degree of belief and the degree of feeling determines the
degree of power with which the subconscious will accept
and express it in experience. Therefore, learn to feel
strongly about the great need which you are trying to fill!
Feel strongly about the answer to that need! Feel strongly
that you are the one to take the answer to the need to
humanity in quality and quantity.
Another important factor in attaining health, happiness
and success, is constantly having peace of mind.

Harmony of soul. To have peace of mind, one must have a
true concept of life, a true concept of the universe in which
we live, a true concept of our relationship to ourselves and
to our fellow men and to our Creator. There is just one great
power in this universe, and it expresses itself at many levels
of intelligence.
• The lowest level is the mineral world.
• The next level upward, or the second level, is the
vegetable world.
• The third level is the animal world.
• The fourth level is where the human can express
themselves through thought.
Thought with freedom of choice and decision. When we
realize that this one power is within us, and realize that we
have legislative and judicial and executive powers within
ourselves, we know that we can refuse to react negatively to
any life situation. We can choose to see the good, the true
and the beautiful at all times. To know and firmly believe
that all is good at all times, causes us to become
invulnerable to in harmony or frustration, and we can
always maintain a peaceful state of mind.
Now, give serious consideration of "How to Get Started on
Your Dream."
First, take inventory of your present situation,
relative to the size and quality of your thinking. May
I suggest that you obtain a notebook and write down an
inventory of your present situation, fourth dimensionally
and third of dimensionally. You may wonder how to take
inventory fourth dimensionally. Write down, in your
notebook, your concept of how much poise, how much
charm, how much kindness, how much love, how much

faith, how much gentleness, how much patience, how many
good qualities which are desirable, and how many bad
qualities which are undesirable you possess as a matter of
habitual experience at the present time.
That will be your fourth dimensional inventory. Be
frank with yourself. If you feel that you are unlovely to any
degree, write it down. By the same token, if you feel that you
are to a large degree a lovely person, write that down also.
Be honest with yourself in this inventory.
Now, write down your third dimensional inventory.
Your third dimensional inventory includes the type of house
you live in, the type of car you drive, the type of clothes you
wear, the type of income you habitually receive. Everything
you have in your physical environment is in your third
dimensional inventory. Get a clean-cut, distinct picture of
your NOW, fourth dimensionally and third dimensionally.
That is number one.
Then, turn the page in your notebook and write
down what you would like to be fourth
dimensionally. How lovely you would like to be, how
charming you would like to be, how much confidence, how
much faith, how much patience, how much love, how much
joy, how much peace, how much gentleness, how much
kindness you would like to experience habitually.
Describe it distinctly, and definitize it in words, so you will
get a clean-cut mental concept of what you want to be
fourth dimensionally. Make quite a study of this. If you can't
find any pictures, color pictures preferably, in magazines or
newspapers, which seem to represent the kind of person
you would like to be, clip those pictures out and paste them
in your notebook.

Then, take inventory of the type of person you
would like to be from the standpoint of the third
dimension. What kind of house would you like to live in,
what kind of a car would you really like to drive, what kind
of clothes would you like to wear, what kind of a
neighborhood would you like to live in, what kind of a
country club would you like to join, what kind of friends
would you like to socialize with, how much money would
you like to have as a stable, basic income?
All of those things are your third dimensional desires. Write
those down and definitize them in every way possible.
Anything that you can do to cause you to become more
keenly aware of what you want to be and what you want to
have is very important in this regard.
Number three, have a little talk with yourself. You
are constantly carrying on a conversation with yourself,
within yourself.
Now, start talking from the position of your dreams
fulfilled. Read the things you want to be and have, listed in
your notebook, each night before you go to bed. Assume,
through this wonderful power of your imagination, that you
already are or what you want to be and you already have
what you want to have.
Live in your dreams fulfilled as often as possible. It
will take a little time for you to feel natural, emotionally, in
your dream fulfilled, because each day, you must go about
your usual life and usual work.
As soon as you learn to feel natural in your dream fulfilled,
thinking from the position that you already are what you
want to be and that you already have what you want to have,
you will find that you have attained this new level of

experience and you will be casually living in your dream
fulfilled.
Actually, you will have detached yourself from the old
inventory and will be making new inventories in your
notebook. As you attain an objective, you will make up your
new inventory fourth dimensionally and third
dimensionally. You will fill out a new seat, with new
objectives, new dreams and you will continue to do it time
and time again. There is no end to the possibility of growth
and expression. We continue to grow and expand and
experience new dreams throughout our lives.
The way to get started on your dreams now, is to definitize
them now. When you have attained the new level of your
present dream fulfilled, you will be able to see further over
the horizon of life and will be in a position to design a new
dream of being and having. In turn, when you reach the
attainment of new dreams fulfilled again and again you will
be at a new vantage point and will live in a continually
increasing abundance of living through all of your life. Isn't
it a joyful thought to know that there is no end to the
attainment of our dreams?
So I close with this wonderful challenge, "Make large
plans for they have magic to stir men's blood."
