there's one or two key points in this
seminar that I have stressed thousands
of times it's vitally important that you
follow them properly on page 26 in your
action planner it suggested did you make
a written description of the person you
are about to become I couldn't stress
this enough I pointed that there's two
pages in this book that can literally
change your life this is the first one
now what I want to suggest you do it may
seem foolish it may seem like a fantasy
but I can assure you it works I want you
to stop and think of exactly how you
would like to be the type of person you
really want to be write it in as much
detail as possible on page 26 and write
it in the present tense you may draw on
different people that you admire and
respect as role models that you might
want to emulate this part or that part
of their personality but make this in as
much detail as possible in the present
tense begin by writing I am so happy
that I am and then describe the person
you truly want to become in as much
detail as possible don't go any further
until that part of this exercise book is
filled in don't spend five seconds
wondering how you're going to become
this person just make it very clear the
person you want to become will tell you
later on how to execute the image when
you have that completed turn your tape
back on and John canary is going to
introduce you to a concept of how this
great power within us takes over and
does what we want I always like to kind
of get into this lesson with a with a
particular idea because you know we're
into something I make a lot of people
feel uncomfortable and just to make sure
that we're all in the same chapter here
we're over on page 27 where it states
let go
let God you know his a cute little story
about Billy and Johnny they were they
were having a little bit of trouble in
town on an ongoing basis and mom didn't
know quite how to handle this dad had
been gone for years and if some went
wrong these kids that hide in the
basement because they would get blamed
for it whether they were involved in the
activity or not well mom took a run down
to the minister there brought Billy and
Johnny with her and she walked in she
said you know Reverend I don't know
quite what to do these two boys are
constantly in trouble
and every time something goes wrong they
get blamed for it and I don't know quite
how to handle it well he said listen mom
you you just go on on home there I'm
gonna take care of this situation right
now and she's away she went he said now
Billy I want you to sit in the hallway
here in that chair and Johnny I want you
in my office
well Johnny get in there and he said him
in that chair and he old Reverend there
he just sat back in that big ole oak
desk and he looked down and he said now
Johnny we're gonna start with some
questions and the first one is where is
God
well Johnny just sat up on that chair
there started to vibrate you know in
state of confusion didn't know quite
what the do blood vessel started to
dilate and he's trying to get a word out
he said come on Johnny right now where's
God when he started to spit stamping
stutter stutter whatever the case might
be and he said Johnny that's the last
time I'm gonna ask you where's God well
Johnny just up off that chair and beat
it down the hallway put on the brakes
grabbed Billy said Billy we got to get
out of here God's missing and they're
gonna blame that one on us too
and this marvelous book that everyone
has in their kit when you pick up and
you read this chapter I want you to keep
something in mind that for 8,000 years
all of the great thinkers they have all
disagreed with one another on many many
different things but you know there was
only one thing that they were in
complete and unanimous agreement with
just one that there is a power in this
universe and they say that this power
that it animates it penetrates and it
motivates the entire cosmos now not too
long ago on a TV show
madam O'Hare was being interviewed by
Phil Donahue and Donny who is she's the
lady who's the head of the atheist
movement and she denied the existence of
any power in this universe but one night
she was being interviewed by Dick Cavett
and Dick Cavett you see he didn't get
emotionally involved in the idea he
stopped and he started to think and he
was able to reason with her without him
losing control and she said the only
good thing about believing in a power is
that you get a lot of holidays and Dick
Cavett said to her you get a holiday
every single year as all atheists do and
she said when is that and he said on
April the 1st
now if you were to go to the arc of
apollo at delphi you'll see just two
words inscribed over that arc at delphi
and those two words go like this it said
no know thyself but what do we really
know about us and what this power is
that animates flows through us flows
with us I mean that really is what we
are all about this power that bob
referred to so much yesterday as spirit
now to properly do this exercise we're
going to have to define or try or
attempt to define this power but you see
if the if you define something then you
place limits on it so you see the way
we're going to define it will not limit
it as a matter of fact it will show that
it is unlimited and that it is infinite
in a marvelous book that I brought out
here with me this morning called your
invisible power
geneviève biron I think put it together
well in this book when she said to get
good results in our life we must
properly understand our relationship to
this great impersonal power now think
about what she said if we are going to
get she said the kind of results that we
want we are going to have to understand
our relationship to this here great all
encompassing this great impersonal power
now she said this power is intelligent
you and I we are intelligent but she
said it is these two intelligences
working together that determine the kind
of results that we get well then where
do we go to find out a little bit more
about this power you see if you examine
it there's a hundred and seventy eight
different names to describe it I mean we
got by hi Vishnu krishna Mohammed Buddha
and and the list goes on and on and on
rather than talk about the name why
don't we try to define the active
to see how it operates to with and
through us now you see if I were in the
United States today and those the people
that are here from the US you check this
out with them if I were to ask them if
they paid their hydro bill what kind of
response do you think I'm going to get
Brian they would think they paid their
water bill or something but you see you
know what I mean by hydro bill but
they're not sure what I mean by hydro
bill but isn't it really the very same
power yes no it's the very same power
well you see this power that we're
talking about rather than try to define
its name let's see if we can define the
activity now if you're going to find out
what it is you're going to have to go to
two sources of reference the only two
that are available and one is science
and the other is theology they are the
only two sources of reference we can go
to if we're going to try to find out
anything now you'll find this in the
chapter on let go and let God in that
book and I'd suggest that you read it
and reread it until you not only gain an
intellectual comprehension but until you
can gain what is called an inner
spiritual emotional intelligence you see
the individual that works only with
intellectual intelligence they're really
not going to accomplish a whole lot but
the individual that can work with that
inner emotional or spiritual
intelligence that individual will open
themselves up to unlimited possibilities
so if we're going to define this power
and we were to go to the scientist and
say what is this power that animates
penetrates and motivates the cosmos why
can I walk and talk what keeps that wall
standing what about night and day why is
there such order in these cosmos how do
I know whether there's a certain star
going to be a thousand years from now
and
within a fraction of a second well the
scientists will tell you there is a
power that animates the cosmos and the
scientists will say he will call or she
will call that power energy that's the
name they used to describe this activity
now if you ask well what is energy this
is the only thing the scientists can
tell you and remember the word science
means - no it means organize knowledge
well then ask what is energy and this is
the only thing science continue that
energy just is it is neither created nor
destroyed it is the cause and effect of
itself and it is 100% evenly present in
all places at all times
doesn't that mean right in here surely
doesn't that mean right in here Lesley
all places at all times
it didn't say 20% discovered 50% in
Tennessee 100% evenly present in all
places at all times is almighty and is
all power that's fine you may say well I
choose not to believe that well you're
entitled believe what you want
well remember this you don't believe in
something you're gonna fall for anything
so we can cross that one out if you like
but some of you will not well that only
leaves you one place left to go and if
you were to go over to theology and what
does theology mean well theology just
means one thing the study of God at
least in this part of the world in
another part of maybe by hi Vishnu
Krishna Mohammed boot again it goes on
and on and on bullets but if you were to
ask the theologian I just left the
scientist I'm trying to find out what is
this power that animates penetrates and
motivates the cosmos say I just left
down there and and I'm trying to find
out a little bit about this power I mean
you've been told that if you do this
thus and so you're going to win that you
have great potential have you ever been
told that John you ever been told honey
if if you change your attitude we get
along better and if you change your
attitude you can use
potential you can be more effective you
ever told that Jim on a daily basis sure
yeah but you see the scientist I went
that I went to this scientist and they
told me something about this energy now
you go over the other side you a
theologian and the theologian will say
yes there is a power in this universe
that keeps everything in working order
but we have a name for the power in this
part of the world what do they call what
is the name they use in this part of the
world so you see we take that symbol and
we put it on the board and then we ask
the theologian well tell me what is who
is what do you mean by God can you give
me a definition and this is the only
thing the theologian can tell you
because remember you cannot limit it and
the theologian will say there is a power
in these cosmos that we call God and God
just is neither created nor destroyed he
is the cause and effect of himself and
he is 100% evenly present in all places
at all times now it seems to me that I
heard that just few minutes ago so the
only thing that has changed is the name
the activity is the same and it has
clearly demonstrated in the book you'll
find in this book something Wernher von
Braun stated Bob quoted Wernher von
Braun von Braun pointed out that science
are studying you could say the energy
and the force around humanity theology
are studying the force within humanity
and they're eventually going to find out
that they are studying one and the same
force you see when we understand what
beerain said it is intelligent we are
intelligent but it is the working
relationship with this power that brings
about the
kind of results we get because they
can't do for you what it can only do
through you gosh I'd get just about
anything for a person to get a hold of
that or to understand that that it
cannot do for you what it can only do
through you think about that now what
you go over to page 27
you got to got to move on here and at
the very top of the page for centuries
there has been a select group of people
who are the real thinkers I mean we
could mean many Edison Emerson Thoreau I
mean there are so many we could be here
all day talking about but every one of
them of all they had different ideas and
different philosophies this is the one
thing they were in complete and
unanimous agreement with these
individuals have always known there is a
power which permeates penetrates and
fills the interspaces of the cosmos and
that everything you see around you was
an expression of that power and so is
everything which you feel the power
operates in a very precise manner which
is generally called law we choose to
call it God others may speak of it as
love divine mind by an intelligence
Jehovah well Lord father first cause as
well as a whole host of other synonymous
names but it doesn't really matter what
you call it because the important thing
to bear in mind and anyone of
understanding will really admit the fact
is that there is a it is the power that
do with the work it's not you and I it's
something we work with but it also works
with us in other words everything comes
from one source and that source that
source power always flows in works to
and through you and that is you state it
differently the image that you have
formed can only come to you on the
physical plane of your life in other
words your results in one way and that
is by the by law and through faith now
the the second part of this particular
chapter bob is going to work with to
show just how faith moves this power
into action keep these two things in
mind as we go through it there are own
two words you need to remember as Bob
walked you through this one is order and
the other is movement order and movement
and when both of those are functioning
together rather than working against one
another we have success happiness health
and wealth which is your birthright so
let's bring on to take us through the
rest of this particular chapter my good
friend and your good friend

Silvia Vander Hoek with our company
she's a vice president with their
company gave me a bumper sticker here a
couple of weeks ago and it said it's too
bad
ignorance isn't painful and you know
that's so true
in covering this particular subject
you're hitting on probably one of the
most important things that anyone can
study and yet very few people study it
in any depth with respect to application
in the various areas of their life
John was quoting Wernher von Braun the
late dr. von Braun he said one time now
keep in mind this was a scientist he is
considered by many as the father of the
space program and he said after years of
studying the spectacular mysteries of
the cosmos he was led into a firm belief
in the existence of God and he pointed
out that science and religion were not
antagonist ik-hee said on the contrary
there are sisters well one studies the
forces of nature outside of us the other
studies the force within us John made
reference to that he was talking about
the atheist I heard a cute little story
one time where the guy said he always
felt sorry for the atheist he said when
they die they said they're all dressed
up and they got nowhere to go and now I
have seen in my own life in a number of
other people's lives some spectacular
things take place when a person grasps
this idea yesterday I pointed out that
one of our great problems was that we
thought we were physical beings and of
course we're not if we were just
physical then there would be a limit to
what we could do there's a limit to what
that table can hold you start piling
wait on that table and you're going to
get to a point where the tables just
going to crush under the weight it's
like the story of the camel on the straw
you put too much straw on the camel's
back and you get to a point you just put
one straw in too many and that's the
straw that breaks the camel's back
we are spiritual beings living in
physical bodies now you and I have an
intellect and through the proper use of
the intellect we can do wonderful things
in our life now we used a drawing
yesterday and in the previous lesson and
I'd like to suggest that you come back
and focus your attention on this drawing
again now remember we were talking about
the mind we have no difficulty getting
an image of a person's body we see our
own every day we see it reflecting back
from the mirror every time we look at
someone else we see their body well the
problem we have is that we have no image
for the mind well of course in the
previous lesson we gave you one and we
said let this represent the mind and
then we pointed out to let this
represent the body and we took and we
divided this and we said this actually
is the creative or the start of all
creation in our life this part of our
personality because as this power flows
into us we can do whatever we choose
with it and of course we can build a
negative concept or we can build a
positive concept but we have the choice
of what we're going to build now ask
yourself if you could have anything you
want and it starts in the form of an
image
what would you start imaging because
that's really the name of the game its
name it and claim it now this works both
on a negative as well as a positive
basis because as you take this image you
can accept it you can reject it as the
we just come into our mind we can do
anything we want with them we do not
have to get emotionally involved with
them now this part is the spiritual side
of our personality this side of us has
no ability to reject an idea yet just
accepts whatever comes into it and
instantly and automatically moves the
body into that vibration in other words
the image begins to move into form now
as we go on in the in the upcoming
lessons we're going to talk about more
how that happens through vibration and
through attraction I want to share
something with you a couple of stories
and then one personal experience I was
in Jackson Mississippi back in 1977 I
had gone into Jackson to do a seminar
and as I was waiting for my bags to come
down the chute this gentleman come over
and he shook hands with me and
introduced himself he told me his name
was MC Duncan and he was from Oklahoma
City he was the president of Oklahoma
life and he said you know I've been
listening to you all week and I've been
watching you all week and I said well
that's interesting where was I and he
just laughed and he had been listening
to cassettes and watching the videos and
as fate would have it we were there for
different reasons but we were both going
to the same hotel so we shared a cab we
went over the hotel we checked in at the
registration desk and then we just
wandered over in the foyer and sat down
and started chatting now you're going to
find that every one that starts to study
themselves they become great readers
they always want to get into good books
because they want to find out more about
the subject is so fascinating well he
and I got talking about the various
books that we liked and we had read many
of the same books and I asked my city if
you ever read any of Robert Russell's
books and he said no he hadn't well I
had an entire side of them I think there
were eight of them I had them in my
briefcase now I had been reading these
books I'd give him away here and there
and I just picked up a new set prior to
leaving town and I put them in my
briefcase so I took them out and I gave
them to him and he looked at me a little
strange and he said well let me pay you
for them
no no I said don't pay me funny nice did
you just take them and enjoy them and
you know I just smiled and I said you
you know that you can never give
anything away it always comes back and
like press down and running over I said
that's the rules and he laughed and he
said yes I know well when I get back to
Chicago to my office I began to get
inundated with great material from MC
Duncan and the first thing he sent me
was this transcript of a minister's
sermon that was preached on November the
21st 1976 now I received this on the 3rd
of March 1977 so the sermon was only a
couple of months old it was delivered by
Reverend Norman Neves
at the Church of the servant in Oklahoma
City and MC Duncan wrote here he insist
upon miracles today here he wrote Bob
first four paragraphs great story about
wrong thinking etc etc best regards MC
Duncan now this is a classic it really
is keep in mind this is how a minister
is starting a servant so the sermon in
Oklahoma City
he began by saying I read a story in the
paper the other day that not only caught
my attention but that continued to hold
it and hold it the further I read it was
a story of a railway employee somewhere
in Kansas who accidentally locked
himself into a refrigerator car and then
who wasn't able to escape perhaps you
read the story also and know what I mean
when I say it continued to hold my
attention no he said apparently this man
had banged and banged on the side of the
car to attract someone's attention
but apparently also no one heard him so
he finally gave up and resigned himself
to his fate sometimes during the night
as he felt his body becoming numb he
began to scribble some sentences on the
wall of the car sentences recording some
of his last sensations as he moved
closer and closer to death the first
sentence said
I'm becoming colder the second sentence
a little bit further down said still
colder nothing to do but wait then it
said I'm slowly freezing to death half
asleep now I can hardly write and then
down at the bottom this sentence which
said these may be my last words which in
fact they wear when the car or the
railroad car was open the following day
they found him dead
but let me tell you something that's
really startling about this story the
freezing apparatus on the car had been
malfunctioning it had not been operating
properly for several days and believe it
or not the temperature hadn't gotten
below 49 degrees during the entire night
that he was there in other words this
man had become the victim of his own
illusion he had presumed that his time
had come and his life is over
when in fact there was no need of that
presumption at all and so even though
the temperature had never fallen below
49 degrees this man died nevertheless
and isn't here to enjoy himself today
Neves went on to point out he said
there's a lot of us that do that with
our lives aren't there we miss read the
signs of our predicaments we presume
that things are worse than they really
are and so like that man we to become
the victim of our own illusion we die if
you will even though the temperature of
our circumstance never even gets close
to freezing now you see this man used
his reasoning factor and he used it
incorrectly he let what he thought were
circumstances control his thinking
that's the image he put in and that's
exactly what he got do you think maybe
that that's what Moses was talking about
when he talked about that reasoning fact
when he said behold today I lay before
you both a blessing and a curse I'm
going to give you an example of someone
that used it the other way many years
ago I made a sales call in Chicago when
I first started to do seminars in the
United States on a gentleman named Mel
hey crap Mel hey crap was the
vice-president of sales to the
Prudential Insurance Company in their
mid-america region now I did not know it
at the time but the Prudential Insurance
Company was the number one company in
the world and the Mid America region was
the number one region in the Prudential
Insurance Company out of 10 different
regions so needless to say I was talking
to a heavyweight when it comes to
business I was only in his office a few
minutes and Mel said well Bob what is it
and I said Mel I've got a seminar that
will just kick your sails flying and
I'll never forget the smile that you
come on his face and you looked at me
and he pushed his chair back from the
desk and he opened a drawer and he took
a file folder out and he spun these
brochures across the desk you just see
all those brochures I said yeah he's all
those people said the same thing this is
that right I said well we're different
we was me at the time but if you're
alone in business you never referred to
me you think so at any rate I said we
are different see I had a brochure made
up that made it look like we operated on
the entire 12th floor the Hancock Center
I thought but in any rate he looked at
me and smiled and he said how are you
different I said we get results he said
they all said the same thing now I knew
that I was making any headway you're in
sales you know when you get to a point
like that you either have to dance or
hit the exit and I wasn't about to leave
had a hard time getting in see this man
as a matter of fact the associate of
mine had phoned him every Monday for a
year we couldn't get in to see him one
Monday was sick Mel phoned him asked
what was wrong and that's how we broke
down his door but at any rate I said
I'll tell you what I'll do you give me a
hundred of your best people don't give
me the worst give me the best does
anyone can do something with the word
excuse me the best and I said we will do
a seminar won't cost you a dime we'd
give you the material give you the
seminar and I said let them be the judge
of whether this will help them in their
sales
he said you got a deal so he did that
seminar I run into a chap in Detroit
here just a little while ago Karl Walker
that was in that group of people
I remember Karl sit in the back row you
never forget Karl and about halfway
through the seminar he kept getting up
and down and up and down and up and down
the guy was going getting so excited he
couldn't stay in the seminary had to go
sell somebody but it anyway that's the
true story Karl's over in Detroit and
Karl will you'll be watching this you'll
remember as well as I do we laugh about
it every time I see him but at any rate
we passed the test I found myself in
front of 450 of their district insurance
agents at the hillside Holiday Inn in
Chicago when I was talking to them for a
very short period of time I suggested
that anyone in that room could go out
and write five million dollars worth of
business now when I mentioned that you
could just feel
oh I am the minds go closed I'd lost the
entire group now you see what we were
doing and what was different we were
introducing this element right here to
their sales to the psyche of their
salespeople to their sales presentation
to their belief system they had never
had that mixed in with their training
before it was chaff come up to me at the
first break he says Proctor said did you
ever sell insurance and I said no I
never had because I didn't think so
that's why you saying that he's you
don't know what you're talking about
well I said no hold on a second I didn't
say I didn't know what I was talking
about I just said I've never sold
insurance I don't know any more about
insurance than the doorman or the salad
chef in here I said I'm operating on the
premise you already know how to write
five million dollars worth of business
he looked at me and said we'll wait just
a minute he said you know this company
is a hundred years old and I said I'd
heard that he said you know there's
20,000 agents in this company and I said
yeah I heard that
well I said did you hear that we've
never had one right five million dollars
worth of business I said then you can be
the first
yeah now this was around the end of
August he said you said this year I said
that's right he said the years over half
done I said then it won't take his long
to do it now I said done yep you can see
yourself as a five million dollar
producer you heard what Paul Hutt's II
did with this idea and you get
emotionally involved with that idea you
turn it over that part of you that's
unseen it's non-physical but it's in
every part of your being I guarantee you
you'll act differently and what you
attract to you will be quite different
and I said you'll do it now that's the
magazine that that company prints or
printed that's a picture of the man I
was talking to his name's Don sloven and
that's a write-up about our conversation
the second week in December done sloven
had paid for five million two hundred
thousand dollars worth of business he
closed the year with a little better
than six million dollars with the
business and the strange part about this
is when he crossed that imaginary line
there was a whole string of people
following see every person everywhere in
history that took the image of what they
wanted they burned that image into their
mind they refused to accept
circumstances every one of them have
accomplished what they've imaged for
years people had tried to run a mile in
four minutes
I need thousands of years you know the
early Egyptians used to turn a lion
loose and let it chase a person hoping
they'd run a mile in four minutes but
they couldn't do it the experts said it
couldn't be done they said our
cardiovascular system wasn't plumper for
it they said our muscles weren't right
the bone structure wasn't right but in
the spring in 1954
guy named roger bannister quit believing
in the experts started to believe in
roger bannister
and he run a mile in under four minutes
within a month other people were running
a four-minute mile really young guy in
this company down Louisiana as a matter
of fact he worked for policy that wrote
five million in a week and he previously
hadn't written three in a year now why
am i mentioning these things why mention
them because you could all tell a story
like this about yourself now just
reading on commitment here it's vitally
important that you remain committed to
your goal understand that if you've got
a vision there's no such thing as an
unrealistic vision Roger Bannister did
not believe in the experts Roger
Bannister believed in Roger Bannister
and it's precisely why he broke that
four-minute mile you can do it don't
listen to the people that tell you you
can't I would introduce you to a lady
that has a phenomenal vision Susan Busey
relate to her and the goals she said do
you have a dream for your business oh
yes what is it
without being a cliche to be a household
name but to be the best service in the
world
Susan Busey said the very biggest and
the best in the world
Susan Busey started a maid service there
cleaning homes and she wasn't satisfied
just to work in our own neighborhood and
earn a few dollars she wanted to develop
this worldwide I received a call from
Susan just within the past week susan is
opening in the Orient she has a
contractual arrangement with Japanese
business firms and she's going to be
opening her business in the Orient
Susan busi like Roger Bannister did not
let people telling them they couldn't do
it stop them don't let anything stop you
you stay committed to your goal keep
that dream in your mind and understand
the power within you will execute it if
you just hold it there and give it
everything you've got
it was his stick person concept letting
go of the past which I was quite
prepared to do and I'd never heard of
anybody say to me let go of the past in
such a way that I did take a look at the
future with optimism and fight if you
want something bad enough go for it and
get it and I did how many people here
have played at Yoga come on
how many play to yo-yo let me see you
have you ever played a yo-yo sure you
have well I was wandering down a street
in Columbia South Carolina must be 15
years ago I was working out of Los
Angeles and at noon this day I didn't
feel like eating I was doing a little
stir-crazy in the hotel so I decided to
just go for a walk I was with another
chap named michael silva was a lawyer
virus out of LA and we're wandering down
the street it's a beautiful day and I
sign this little kid playing a yo-yo
now do you know it's marvelous the way
our mind works we can relive year
they're light in seconds just like that
a millisecond well when I saw this
little guy I had a great movie just
wound right across the scream of my mind
and I saw myself as a little kid coming
running out of balmy Beach Public School
in the East End of Toronto and I would
run up kinks up Beach Avenue and down
Kingston Road and I was looking for a
specific guy his name was Ricky McGinnis
and Ricky McGinnis was employed by the
cheerio yo-yo company here in Canada he
was a yo-yo Pro he was a champion and
I'm gonna tell you this guy could play a
yo-yo
now they dressed these guys up you see
the game uniform the uniform consisted
of a maroon sleeveless sweater that had
red white and blue here and a v-neck
that was 4 V for victory that came from
the Second World War some you weren't
around then most of you weren't around
then but anyway and that that's what
that represents but he had a great big
crest here in the center and it had
cheerio across them and it had yo-yo
champion that in had little badges sewn
all over it each one of these little
badges represented a trick and if you
learned the tricky to get these little
badge as well of course he had them all
and I always remember I envied this guy
because he had a great big draft of
yo-yo strings around his neck now yo-yo
Springs and I was young guy were two for
a nickel and of course if you had two
nickels at the same time in our
neighborhood you're considered
financially independent I mean now it
was a poor neighborhood none of us slept
alone in that area until after we got
married I mean get his fat ones on the
bottom you know I mean I was rough area
well at any rate every now and then we'd
break a string and we didn't have a
nickel to buy a new string and he would
take one of these strings out and he'd
hand it to us
he might even had us on the head call us
by name of course we had arrived after
Pro recognizes because you see he was
like the Pied Piper when we found him
walking up the street we'd walk with him
and we just stare at him you know and it
was look at him I mean we had this guy
you talked about God we thought this guy
was God I mean we had him deified well
any rate here we get to Kingston Road
Scarborough and he'd start teaching us a
trick and he tests us on a trick and
we'd form a great big circle around them
now that's what I saw he had a matter of
a millisecond when I saw this kid play
to yo-yo and I suddenly had the
strongest urge inside of me to play a
yo-yo I didn't have you know so I called
this little kid over
he's a Khmer it was all about himself
just a little kid you know
shake him over and he I said give me her
yo-yo so he took this yo-yo off and he
gave it to him
now he was still at a pump your body
stage and say he didn't know how to play
the yo-yo
he was like Carol he was just learning
but at any rate he'd be walking along
and he pumped his body and I guess if he
kept doing that he figured it would go
up and down so at any rate the little
kid give me the yo-yo and I thought I
wonder if I could still play one of
these things I hadn't had one in my hand
for years it's not bad you give me a
hand for that it's going well then I
started to remember some of the tricks
that's called making it sleep if you
can't do that you all right a lot you
can't play the oil you can't do the
tricks so did that then I remembered
this one this was rock the cradle you
learn how to do that you get a bad you
see isn't there wonderful what trick is
that that's a dandy you know Gina asked
me just a few minutes ago John there's a
yo-yo in that bag you want to throw it
they Jean asked me a few minutes ago
how's the string in your yo-yo nice to
know it's fine now that's the second
time
and a week that's a second time in a
week that that's happened I gotta get
this one working right it wasn't working
right earlier yeah yeah John used to
carry the yo-yos and playing the boards
you see how I got it done right right
back in business
remember that song John is just like old
times
[Laughter]
there was only a baby he was a bad baby
too
no you don't believe me asked his mother
she said and I'm dead
well at any rate I was in the Boy Scout
you see I came prepared I have two
yo-yos I think I have to yeah that was
rock the cradle learn how to do that and
get a badge now we had another one well
this is a dilly and this one called
shoot the gun now seeing as how it
throws out is best regardless I'm gonna
make this sucker works red in a night
and
one day came around and he said lesson
we're gonna have a big contest and he
said the winner is going to get one of
these sweaters well I'm gonna tell you
you talk about building an image in your
mind all of a sudden I could see on the
screen of my mind that sweater on me and
you talk about getting emotionally
involved what we say feeling was we said
feeling is conscious awareness of
vibration what we say cause vibration we
said getting emotionally involved in the
idea put the body into the vibration
that it had to be in and when you become
consciously aware of that you called it
a feeling well I could actually feel
this sweater on me I mean I could hear
all the pretty little girls saying
that's the guy that won the sweater and
of course I'd let on it in here and I'd
say that's right you know it was me and
then I could actually feel this I mean I
had to have that sweater you know every
once in a while something comes up and
you just have to do it I had to win that
sweater now I was just a little kid I
was learning a phenomenal life's lesson
but I didn't know I was learning it now
Rick would come around and he just show
us this trick once he'd fire this thing
down and he'd bring it up I may have to
get another string for this thing get up
here
[Applause]
that's it how many of you can do that
with the yo-yo now ask yourself why
you're not able to do that and I am you
want to know why I'm gonna tell you why
see any person in this room could learn
how to do that if you wanted the sweater
bad enough and I wanted that sweater and
I hooked the sweater up what I wanted
with what I was doing and I had to
believe I could get it wasn't Napoleon
Hill say he says there's a difference
between wishing for something and
believing you can receive it and he said
the key is you've got to believe it
William James says believe in your
belief will create the fact well you
know that's where it all starts that's
where it all starts I don't care how
simple it is I don't care if it's just
winning a sweater with the yo-yo it
could be writing the five million or it
could be doing what that men did in the
boxcar it works both ways yet has no
ability to change the idea whatever you
ask for that's exactly what you get now
as you take the idea that you build and
you've got the ability to sit down and
design any idea you want you see if you
are going to decorate your room you'd
get an idea here in your mind of how
you'd like that room decorated and then
you'd go and get the things that you
needed and you'd put them in place until
you had built on the physical plane of
life a replica of the picture you've got
in here we have a gentleman here with us
today that wrote the music and the
lyrics for the ghost and mrs. Muir give
Scott Turki Hannah
sitting right over hand as I stand up
Scrat is the music musical director over
at lea puzzlin theater when you heard
Dave asked is there anybody from out of
town and you heard someone say from
Colorado
Scott is from Colorado but he is
entertaining over at the Apostles feet
if you want to see a good play you want
to go over I've been to Scott's play in
the past and I'm going to tell you this
man is quite a musician Scott where does
the music start would you say it starts
right in here you start hearing it in
your head don't you that's right you
actually hear the music in your head you
see Scott takes this power and he turns
it into music in his head he literally
hears it and as he hears it he sees it
written on paper am I right or wrong
then you take a pen or a paper and you
write it
Scott stand up for just a second because
this is a good example then when he's
got the music he not only rights to
music he put words with the music is
that correct and we call those lyrics
and he takes and he writes the lyrics
and he knows those words what are words
words are nothing but ideas dressed up
for our physical benefit and you put
words and that puts more meaning than to
the sound that you've heard is that
correct
thank you span
did you see some people will say well
he's creative but I'm not that's not
true
everyone's creative we're all an
expression of the same power we've all
been given the same tools Scott has
developed those and many of us haven't
this is where it starts now you're
working with the universal power this
power just isn't in you it's in everyone
it's in everything we use this drawing
to graphically convey an idea of you
your body your mind your intellect but
if you were to look at this properly
this is how it would appear it's a
universal power that you're impressing
that ID on you know when you throw a
pebble into the lake the entire
shoreline has been changed
if you throw a pebble get into the
Atlantic Ocean
the entire shoreline has been altered
you'll say oh not the Atlantic yeah even
the Atlantic Ocean
you know where our problem is we could
not see with these physical things the
change in the shoreline but
understanding lets us see the change in
the shoreline van Gogh was asked how he
did such beautiful work he did the same
way Scott does it I dream my painting
and then I paint my dream do you know
you'll never buy an original painting
why the originals on the mind of the
artist or we're all working with the
same power Don sloven sensed that I
believed he could write the five million
I knew he could write the five million
that give dawn a little inspiration and
he started to think about it he started
to think of all the good things that
would come to him fame porch and
everything but he got a mostly involved
and as he put that idea in there Don
sloven moved into a brand new vibration
he started to attract all kinds of
different things
to him do you think it's an accident
when one person one in sales goes into
their office and in their pigeonhole
there are no messages and another one
goes in and there's 14 people want to
buy something from them do you think
it's an accident whether there are two
businesses side by side one when one
loses I go to a barber shop down on
Bayview Avenue Toni's I've been going
there for 25 years
whenever I've lived in Toronto four
doors away is another barber shop on
Bayview Avenue I have never seen anyone
in that barber shop in 25 years I've
never seen one person now I know someone
goes in there I know that because the
person couldn't keep the doors open
otherwise Tony's you always have to wait
and the other one you would never have
to wait someone would say well that'd
probably be a good place to go I don't
think he'd cut it the way I want to cut
and I think there's a lot of people
think I don't think he'll cut it the way
I want it cut but why is it empty is
because I'm thinking that now it's empty
because that's the way that man sees his
barbershop we had some people come into
Chicago one time when I was working with
the Nightingale organization they had a
chicken restaurant in Ohio it was out in
the country it was a great big beautiful
white mansion they sold more chicken
dinners than any restaurant in the
United States people would come from
three states away to buy from them it's
in the image now ask yourself what kind
of an image of you been holding have you
been wishing good things would happen
but think bad things would happen you
see most people most people will let
their present physical results control
their way of thinking
they are mostly involved in it they
think it's an accident that the same
results keep reoccurring that's no
accident if you've got a financial
problem if you've got a cash flow
problem if you've got a marital problem
that's what most people concentrate on
if a doctor takes a photograph of your
body and then tells you your second
shows years
what's the person concentrate on
sickness what's the photograph prove the
photograph proves that the person has
been concentrating on something wrong to
move their body into that vibration what
should they do they should ask for help
where does it come from there's only one
source and they see perfect health or
they see prosperity but the cynics don't
believe this it's a strange thing the
cynics don't get results hey there quit
letting your present results control
your thinking this power that I call God
is in every one of us and it's no more
present in one person than it is in the
other it's got to Turk hasn't gotten any
more this power than Bob Scott Plouffe
hasn't got any more of it than than
reen's God Reena hasn't got any more of
it than Dave's God every one of us are
expression of the same power and when we
really grasp this this universal concept
we're going to realize that we are all
essentially the same with the same
powers that's learning how to use this I
remembered how that went then it says
because the time will most assuredly
come and the best and wisest know not
how soon when death the leveller of all
human greatness will reduce us all to
the same level it's like burning the
paper and it has like boil in the water
see death as we know it is moving under
this thing life as we know it is in this
thing but if nothing's created or
destroyed and if all science and all
theology tell us the same thing that not
only postulates one theory the theory of
life see everything you have is going to
belong to someone else at the time of
your death but what you are is yours
forever now we want to try and
understand this concept on page 28 we
say you are a perfect instrument for
spirit to express itself through start
to see yourself now every time you think
of yourself think of that drawing there
every time you think of the drawing you
think of yourself you've got to have an
image to work with on page 28 we say see
yourself as a perfectly endowed
spiritual instrument without limitation
when you do you're gonna find it easy in
fact natural to expect the good you
desire you will also understand that
doubt simply obstructs the unfoldment of
the prosperity in your life now read
this bottom paragraph and page 28
don't does not shut down the workings of
the power the power is always working
think of the man in the refrigerator car
it's always working
it never stops there isn't some
emotional or capricious God say no wait
a minute you're choosing the wrong
thought you ask and you'll receive you
ask for the wrong thing you're going to
get it it'll be delivered right on
schedule you can make book on it the
don't you hold becomes the picture which
will turn into your physical results you
see when you build the picture you
control from inside you do not control
from outside regardless of the
circumstance of the present results what
it James Allen say your circumstances
may be uncongenial but they are will not
long remain so if you perceive the ideal
and strive to reach it you know in an
ideal is an ideal is an idea that you
fall in love with and you know what love
is love is resonance it's harmony it's
in tune its operating on the same
frequency well when you get the higher
side of your personality operating with
the lower side of your personality
you're gonna see miraculous changes take
place on the physical side of your
personality but until you get these two
in tune you're gonna have problem
because when they're not in tune there's
what we call conflict and if there's
conflict in the mind I guarantee it'll
express itself in the body what do you
think this ease is it's the operative at
ease on page 29 one of the best
definitions of faith I've ever heard
came from a chap in Chicago Clarence
Smith listen Clarence Smith
he said faith is the ability to see the
invisible would we say about Scott's
music no one on planet Earth had ever
heard that music that he heard in his
head until he put it on paper and then
sent it out so the rest the world could
enjoy what he was enjoy it's the ability
to see the invisible to believe in the
incredible what is incredible is that
there's a power in every cell of your
being that operates in a totally
deductive manner it will take whatever
image you impress upon it and it'll move
you into the vibration you have to be in
to act the way you have to act to
attract this thing you have to track for
the manifestation of the image that you
chose to build you can say using a
slightly different vocabulary I'd make
the observation if you can show me a
person who achieves great things I can
show you a person who has great faith in
themself and their ability to achieve
what they imagine on page 29 I was
having dinner last night with Paul Hutt
see he told me a most interesting little
story Paul was talking about it's what's
on the inside it's not what on the
outside he talked about it yesterday
well he was talking about it last night
and he tells the story about the little
black boy that went to the to the
carnival and there was a man there
blowing up balloons filling them with
helium gas and then letting them go and
he filled a red balloon and then he tied
it up and he let it go and the little
boy was standing there watching him then
he filled the yellow balloon with helium
and he tied it and he let it go then he
filled a green blue and he tied it and
he let go and the little boy said mister
he said can black balloons fly he said
son any balloon can fly it's not what's
on the outside that makes it fly it's
what's on the inside and that's the way
it works
interesting idea we say comparatively
few people today realize just how much
faith in oneself your higher self not
this false concept that we've been
running around with can't do this can't
do that your higher self that sight of
you that's universal that's the same
side of us all that part of you that
spiritually perfect has to do with your
achievement the majority of people never
seem to conceive of faith as being a
genuine creative force yet the truth is
that not only is faith a bona fide power
yet is the greatest one you will ever
encounter ever encounter in fact I'd go
so far as to say that whatever you
accomplished in your lifetime will be in
direct proportion to the intensity and
persistence of your faith intensity what
do we mean by that well remember we said
one of the intellectual factors was the
will the will gives us the ability to
concentrate on an idea when we
concentrate on the idea we're just
taking that power and turning it right
over we're giving more energy to the
idea what the Emerson's say the only
thing that can grow is the thing you
give energy to it's been told to us ten
thousand ways I think what we want to do
is wake up and I borrow your program
thanks know the tapes you have a set of
these tapes you need a new tape some of
you will be wondering how to get these
out you're digging with your fingernails
and the ladies are getting upset because
they're breaking their fingernails you
just have to press on the side and they
pop over and then it tells you
underneath how to get them out
Andy Rooney would probably get about an
hour and a half out of that now you've
got a relaxation and visualization tape
I want to suggest that you put this to
good use on page 30 on page 30 we're
suggesting that you take this new
understanding that you're developing you
take the description of the new you that
you wrote up on page 26 that new
description should include no negatives
it should be in the present tense it
should not say I am going to become it
should say I am I am so happy that I am
and describe everything that you want to
be it's going to be this is vaguely
important in present tense this part of
your personality knows nothing about
past or future there's only now you ask
yourself where am I what time is it
you'll always get the same answer to
those two questions I'm here it's now so
this is written in present tense it
includes no negatives everything is
positive you write it out when you write
it out you have built brain cells I'm
gonna ask the gentlemen sitting there
that I had up here yesterday Nino Nino
do you want to stand up for just a
second Nino you looked at an object
yesterday and when you looked at that
object
you had no cells of recognition for it
in your brain now me no I am just going
to mention that the the object it was a
metal toothpick yesterday you didn't
even know what it is today when I say
you can see it in here is that correct
definitely thanks Nino now do you know
what Nino is saying I built brain cells
yesterday
well do you know as you write out this
description of you you're literally
building brain cells you're building new
brain cells those new brain cells holds
an image of the new you now this is how
the change is made you use this and you
let yourself totally relax don't try and
relax let yourself relax trying is
forcing and you must let on the mind you
let yourself get emotionally involved in
this image and you know that every time
you do in a very relaxed State
when you just trigger those brain cells
you just think of the new you and that
picture comes up and you know every time
you do that you're giving more and more
energy to those brain cells they become
stronger and stronger in a relatively
short period of time those ideas will be
fixed in your mind and that's the way
you'll live when Kari grant passed away
I read a page the worried on Cary
Grant there was an entire page of
one-liners the last one was by Cary
Grant himself he said I acted like Cary
Grant for so long
I became him I acted like Cary Grant for
so long I became him you can say I've
acted like this person on page 26 for so
long I became that person now you can go
over this lesson and go over it you
can't go over it too often couldn't
possibly we're gonna touch now on what
you should expect because you're gonna
find that expectation is what really
makes the difference now as John goes
through this page I want you to think I
want you to think if I built that
picture on page 26 I painted the picture
it's like Scott heard the music then he
painted it on paper
well you saw the person and then you
painted it on page 26 and every time you
get emotionally involved you rewrite it
and you're gonna find you'll crystallize
it and you'll make it better and you'll
make it better and you'll make it better
well every time you do that you're
moving yourself into that vibration
you're going to get to the point where
you'll start to expect the good that you
desire and John's going to tell you what
will happen when you do and you know
when I wrote that goal on the card years
and years ago of having the $25,000 I
didn't believe it you may not believe
what you write on that page you might
think this is really silly you may think
it's silly try it
I can guarantee in a relatively short
period of time you won't think it's
silly anymore because as I pointed out
you write a lie on a card and you meet
it often enough you're gonna believe it
and you're gonna find your belief as
William James said will literally create
the fact the more often you listen to
that section of you're born rich program
the clearer its going to be in your mind
I previously mentioned there were two
pages in this book that would make a
world of difference for you one was page
26 and the other was page 30 now on page
26 as you wrote down the person you
wanted to be you might have looked at
that as being a fantasy do you know some
people truly live their fantasies what
was actually happening when you sat and
you thought of the person you want to
become you've built this picture in your
mind you were literally building brain
cells just as I did with Nino on the
first cassette that you are watching now
as you made the written description of
the person you wanted to become you
built brain cells in your mind now we're
going to activate those brain cells now
consider this for a moment
here you have fantasy theory and fact
permit me to explain what's going to
happen
if you will take the number-7 audio
cassette from your born rich program and
play this tape what you're going to do
is put yourself into a very relaxed
State
it'll be an altered state of
consciousness go and lay down someplace
quiet by yourself and turn this cassette
on and when you get into a very relaxed
State
throw the switch of that person you want
to be you're going to activate those
brain cells now in the beginning it's
going to remain a fantasy but by playing
this tape daily twice a day if you can
and turning that picture on that you
built on page 26 activating those brain
cells that fantasy is going to be turned
into a theory in your mind now every
time you build that picture in a relaxed
state take page 30 and rewrite the
picture and what you want to do is
crystallize the picture of the person
you want to be Cary Grant one time
pointed out I acted like Cary Grant for
so long I became him that's what's going
to happen to you the power within
ultimately we'll take this image of
yours and begin to express it with and
through you in your life but it's
vitally important that you use this
cassette put yourself in an altered
state of consciousness a very relaxed
State
throw the switch that you created when
you wrote out page 26 begin to visualize
your fantasy only it becomes real when
you come back to a normal conscious
state it's very important that you
rewrite this picture again each time you
rewrite it it'll become clearer and
clearer now you may alter it a bit as
you rewrite it and as you rewrite it you
give more energy to those brain cells
every time you relax you're moving that
picture more and more into a state that
we call a theory and you're going to
find that you will be motivated
the power within you will actually take
that image and begin to express it with
and through you and your theory will
literally become a fact mine has Roger
banisters did and so will yours but it's
important that you do what we suggest
with page 30 now when that's complete
the next part that John Canary is going
to lead you into is going to be truly
rewarding for you John's going to
suggest that you begin to expect an
abundance in your life in all areas of
your life keep this idea in your mind as
we run through this abundance lesson
here time is going to lead you through
that now let's give John a hand
[Applause]
about six years ago I was down in a
place called South Jersey around Cherry
Hill Trenton Atlantic City and there was
two speakers on a program just before me
and I've never been able to understand
why I'm always the last one on a program
no matter where we're speaking as a
matter of fact same thing happens to
Robert but something interesting
happened on this program there were two
people on it who were stone blind the
first speaker was Tom Sullivan that you
see in the odd TV show Good Morning
America programs of that nature and both
of them gave the same title to their
talk that day and the title went like
this if only you people could see what
we hear now that day I learned something
about that we don't see with our eyes
but we do see with our mind in other
words and I'm going to work with both
boards here in a little while but I
learned that day that the individual who
has a desire can achieve that desire
when they understand the relationship of
being able to see it with their mind now
when Charlie Bosley got up that day I
could not believe what I heard when he
was introduced as one of the top 10% of
all life insurance agents on this earth
but yet the man was stone blind now
Charlie Bosley said he has always had a
desire to achieve something but he said
he never ever left the house because he
was feeling sorry for himself as a
result of something had happened to him
in Vietnam then he said one day he was
down in Atlanta watching a great golf
tournament with the great Ben Hogan and
Ben Hogan would get up and tee off and
they tell Charlie Ben's getting up the
tee off and he'd yell come on Ben come
on
man you can do it you can do it they
come over say mr. Bosley can't talk like
that at a golf tourney after ten you're
at a Funeral
but he said I went through it for 18
holes because Ben Hogan is my hero and
he said no one's gonna throw a blind man
off the golf course now he said when it
was all over Ben Hogan came up to him
and he said mr. Bosley I want to thank
you for being such an inspiration to me
today and Bosley said no it's I who
should be thanking you mr. Hogan he said
you see when I heard your story I was a
man living in pity he said I heard about
your car accident and how before the
head-on collision you fell in front of
your wife to protect her and then when
they got you to the hospital they said
to your wife mrs. Hogan Ben will not
live tonight and your wife said you
obviously don't know my husband now he
said the next morning when you proved
the experts wrong and you were able to
continue with your life they said but
mrs. Hogan then is never going to walk
again and she said
you obviously don't know my husband now
as months went by you see Ben you know
he started to get his spirit back again
he started to becoming consciously aware
I'm in a bed my body is broken but I
want to play golf again
and they said mrs. Hogan he wants his
Golf Club is now strung up from the
ceiling where he can see them all day
long but he's never going to play golf
again
and mrs. Hogan said now he said mr.
Hogan you have one more golf tournaments
and championships since your accident
than before and he said that's the
reason that I started to experience a
different relationship with all the
things that I have ever desired and
Hogan said is there anything I can do
for you mr. Bosley he says as a matter
of fact there is he said you know I'm
pretty good golf do you know that he can
beat many people on a golf on the golf
course any day of the week even though
he's blind he said what can I do for you
mr. Bosley he said I want to play one
round of golf with the great Ben Hogan
any time you want he said there's one
condition mr. Hogan I want to play for
$1,000 a hole
now I want you to keep in mind here
before I finish this story Bob mentioned
how some people put what is called a
crown on circumstance in other words
there are some people that actually get
down and they deify this word
circumstance that's what's in control of
their life well yet here was a man whose
sensory factor called sight
it was absent he was blind and been said
there is no way that I'm going to play
you for $1000 a hole what will people
think of me
he said now just a minute mr. Hogan you
asked me for a request I gave it to you
now you're backing out well he got the
best of Ben and Ben said I'll tell you
what I've got some people here they help
they'll uh they're witness to the fact
that I warned you I'll play you but I am
going to play my best Charlie said
that's fine I wouldn't expect you to do
anything else Ben Ben said okay when do
you want to play and Charlie said ten
o'clock tonight
now I want you to think about what
happened you see I want you for just a
moment to think about all the things
that you actually desire think about all
the things that you desire but now let
me ask you something
on a scale of one to ten I'll bet ten
being high that your desire for certain
things in life I would bet that they are
at a ten see I've heard people say
people like desire
nobody likes desire you see if you take
and define this word desire for just a
moment just define this word desire it
is the effort of an unexpressed
possibility within us that is seeking
expression through us the word desire it
comes from the latin word daya da - SI r
e which means to give birth to everybody
in here has something rattling around
within them that they want to give birth
to desire is the language of spirit but
it seems the basic difference in people
who experience their desire versus
people who do not experience their
desire it has something to do with this
great principle the greatest principle
an individual can ever learn which is
called expectation expectation now if
you had to take and write down something
that surrounds this central purpose just
for a moment if I said to everyone in
this room now Bob asked you to write out
on a page what you want to become now
I'm going to suggest to you that
everybody in this room from the top to
the back and in the middle that every
one of us have a desire to be mo
to do more and to have more but how many
people actually expect it to happen you
know as a great point in history where
Moses was leading all these people
around a desert and you know a lot of
people said he was lost Moses was not
lost he was a man of wisdom and what he
was doing is leading these people around
and around in circles until he was able
to change the attitude or the
consciousness before he went in to this
new land and all the people they came to
him and they said Moses we've got a
problem we have no water
what are you gonna do he said you go and
pray to your God for rain and away they
went and back they came and they come
back when they said Moses God has
forsaken us he said what'd he mean he
said we have no rain Moses said tell me
where are the ditches he said to what he
said the ditches if you believed it was
going to rain you would have dug the
ditches you see you can go around and
desire all the things you want to be all
the things you want to do and all the
things you want to have but until you're
able to see yourself on the screen of
your mind you will never ever experience
the desire until you're able to see it
and then proceed by acting on it you
will never experience the desire now I
want to move over to the other board and
cover a little idea that is very dear to
my heart just before I touch in the book
now think about this
everybody in here at one time started
out even in search of a better condition
improved quality you could say in our
life but for some reason or other
somewhere in the neighborhood of 20% of
the people
actually experience the objective the
goal the purpose that they started out
with what happens to 80% of the people
who start off with this great desire
this great love to achieve something to
become more to have more and to do more
to express more and more of themselves
in that marvellous book I just talked
about a moment ago
Genevieve beerain said this she said
that the purpose of spirit the very
purpose of spirit is expression that it
is seeking to become more and more over
and above what it has all ready become
what a great thing to understand it is
seeking to become but it cannot unless
we permit it and provide this channel of
expression unless we give it the channel
there is no expression so how many
people expect what it is they desire
Bob's going to get into this a little
more later but Raymond Halliwell said in
his book we should never desire
something we don't expect and we should
never expect something we don't desire
this is the year now the season right
now where you see that commercial come
on television and you see a guy standing
under a lamppost there and he's sniffing
and it's raining and it's cold and it's
dark and he's getting a cold and home he
goes in the scene switches and there he
is resting easily in bed because his
wife just gave him nyquil
now if you were to go down to any
drugstore today and check the shelves
for the cold remedies they will be they
won't be too many but as soon as the
commercial hits the market go down and
they'll have an entire aisle dedicated
just to the coals to come or you could
say that is consistent with the
commercial because the season now has
set up this mental ruling state which is
called expectation this is the season we
expect to catch a cold I've had people
in the programs I go up them I say
something like this
do you get a couple of calls a year yeah
how many of you had this year one leave
you got one more to come yeah I usually
get it about November now that is the
mental ruling state your expectation is
a magnet and it will attract everything
of a like nature you give an example
Brian would you stand up with Leslie for
a moment just go ahead and stand up
mom's right but when you met Leslie did
you just say that's the girl I would
like to spend some time with sure that's
Brian just tell me lastly when you
looked at Brian did you say now there's
a guy I want to spend my time yeah
now I want you to understand something
here the two of them met long before
they laid eyes on one another now I know
that's going to pop the navel of most
people in here but what you're looking
at is the law of expectation
now whether Brian was aware of it or not
he was attracting Leslie into his light
Leslie was attracting Brian into his
life
Bob said resonants our love is the
residents of thought what you're looking
at is love and what you're looking at is
one idea vibrating in two bodies
vibrating in two bodies Brian made me
promise I'd get him on the program okay
Brian
now think about it where did you get off
in search of or in pursuit of what is
called your goal I want you to imagine
going down to Maple Leaf Gardens and
suddenly the game starts to drop the
puck you look at each end of the rink
and there's no nets now the game would
be a little confusing you need Nets to
play that game I shouldn't say that what
the least doesn't matter but now think
about I mean if there were no Nets at
each end of the rink the game there
would be a lot of activity but there
would be no purpose in playing the game
how can you play the game of life how
can you get up in the morning put both
feet in the floor and you've got nothing
to work or see you have a desire but
what you do is you don't see yourself in
possession of the desire consequently
you don't release this power that flows
with and through you but isn't it
interesting that we all started out in
pursuit of the objective but something
happens at a particular point we run
into a crisis we run into conflict and
it seems that we run into what is called
demands what are some of the domains we
all run into when we start to try and
improve the quality of our life be a
little better as a salesperson be a
little better as a person as a mother as
a father someone once asked me give me
one good reason canary why I should have
a goal and maybe try to be a little bit
better than I am I'm gonna give you one
there a little eyes upon you when
they're watching night and day that a
little ears that quickly they take in
everything you say their little hands
all eager to do everything you do and a
little boy or girl who's dreaming of the
day they'll be just like you for you're
this little person's Idol you're the
wisest of the wise and their little mind
about you no suspicions ever arise well
they believe in you devoutly and it
always say and all we do those little
people or dreaming of the day they'll be
just like you and just like me what are
we like for we are setting an example
every day in all that we do to those
little gaffers who are dreaming
of the day they'll be just like you just
like you and just like me well you see
when you're faced with a demand don't
have enough money debt people phoning us
and I'd suggest that anyone who is in
debt I strongly urge you to read that
chapter on board and rich will show you
how to handle it I'll show you how to
him and I'll think about this why is it
when some people are faced with demands
that turn into what are call risks that
some take what is called an option do
you know the mind is such a marvelous
marvelous piece of equipment although
the mind is an activity it is not a
thing it is not a thing I want you to
think about this for just a moment when
the mind is presented with a demand or a
risk the mind will offer you and me an
option
do you know the option it offers us when
we're faced with a strong demand and a
risk is called the escape hatch we then
start expecting the result that we don't
want we are a force of energy and we
attract everything of a like nature Bob
mentioned that this mental state of
vibration which generates this emotional
state of vibration which moves this body
into action those three states of
vibration are nothing more but your
thoughts your feelings and your actions
think of this word attitude attitude as
nothing more but our thoughts our
feelings and directions that's your
state of vibration that's the energy
that you send out into light and the
only thing that flows in your life is
based on what flows out of your life
your thoughts feelings and actions
release this energy and will attract
everything to corresponds to that ruling
state expectation can be either a
blessing or a curse but either way it is
certainly one of the most powerful
unseen forces in your life what do you
expect I'll tell you how to know what
you expect take a look at the results in
your life your results will tell you
exactly what you've been expecting what
you've been expecting now worry is the
opposite of expectation using the same
energy but worry sets up a magnetic
force that attracts things of a like
nature or events and people to cause
that worried state to actually manifest
in one's life just quickly this is a
letter from a young boy named David
Holly in Hamilton Ontario and the letter
he writes is about coming to a program
that we were doing out in Hamilton and
he gives me all kinds of pleasantries
here Dear John this that the other thing
and all the great things that happened
to him he said when I was at your
seminar I wanted to stand up and say I
was a goal setter I am a goal setter but
he said I couldn't do that he said I
allowed the demands and the rest to
control what I was going to do I allow
the demands and risks to keep me in my
seat but he said then he said you spent
some time with me we sat down we talked
about it and he said you gave me a
little better understanding of what I
want versus what I expect there's the
result I want you to take a real close
look at this report card because what's
on it if you go all the way down the
page you will see straight A's straight
A's can you see it John he became a goal
setter first second he expected the goal
to appear in his life now I want to
introduce you to Mark Dwyer
mark I was standing out in the hallway
and Mark came all the way down the back
stairs and Mark come up and he said I
said can I help you with something he
said I just wanted to come down and meet
you you see
so I want that bring up a little talk
with them and I want you to give a warm
welcome to mark Dwyer come on up here
now you see mark has the same goal but
David Holly hence isn't it interesting
he happened to appear and talk about
something I was going to share with you
now mark which mark is your lowest mark
in what subject Addie in which subject
Merc Merc do you like science as much as
you like English you see mark is never
going to do as well in science as he's
doing in English do you know why he's
not really excited about it
how could he possibly expect to do well
in it now mark wants you to just stand
sideways with me here and I want you to
take a look at the board like just
trying to face me just turn around and
face me go ahead like I'm standing okay
do that now mark
mark have you been talking to Bob before
you come up there I'm gonna get Brian
down here to do a little okay mark mark
you see here's a person that's not
getting any marks in school they have a
desire and they start out mark with all
that all the marks that they want in
school they want to be good kids you
understand what I'm saying they want to
do well in school but you know there's
demands and their risks you know what
the demands and risks are mark the
demands and the risks are coming from
their peers you know mark there are
people in school that are gonna stop you
from doing well if you let them isn't
that right mark mark are you gonna let
them know
mark you see you have a desire right now
mark you can see yourself not
accomplishing that desire because
there's a lot of demands and a lot of
things to tell you you can't do it
there's a lot of people are gonna say
you can't be a member of our club if you
want to get good marks and then what you
do is you take the escape hatch mark I
want you to remember one thing for me
will you that no one can make you feel
inferior without your consent will you
remember that yes no one now mark I want
you to back up just a little bit take a
couple steps back okay
okay and stand like I stand okay now
mark you do have a desire mark has an
average of B's in school now is that
correct mark mark what what what mark do
you want mark
mark wants AIDS in school mark can you
see yourself with a report card with
AIDS on it yes no mark when you go home
I want you to sit down with your mom
your mom is here isn't there right yes
and I want you to you and your mom to
get a blank report card at school when
is the next report card mark mark when
you get the next one I don't know you
get it in the next couple of months
December something like that yeah I want
you to get a blank report card when you
go home and you take it home you and mom
and you sit down and what you do is you
fill in the marks that you want this
year and then you put it up beside your
bed and you actually see those marks not
only in your mind but before you go to
bed every night you see the marks that
you want already on the report card long
before you get the report card can you
do that mark yes you can do that yep
mark is there anything you want to say
to everybody here
mark I want to thank you for being such
a pro okay mark how about a little hug
before you go
now you see why can we not sit down
would say kids in school and fill out
the report card before the term begins
we do it in business we do and
everything else why not set up an
environment or an atmosphere of
expectation all right now I'm going to
ask you that before you leave here today
like at lunch you take this book with
you you take some time today and you sit
down with page 33 and you list in your
personal life and your family life that
in your business life all the things
that you really want and then beside it
put down whether or not you have been
expecting them now why haven't we been
expecting them because we allow the
demand and we allow the risk to control
whether or not we're going to do it
don't allow others don't allow
circumstance don't allow it to control
the way you feel about you you determine
your mental ruling state now we just
switch back please to page 31 and want
to finish this so we can stay on time
there now there is one line just below
the first paragraph on page 31 what are
you doing to increase your income I
could have said what are you doing to
increase your relationships what are you
doing to increase will say your
well-being what are you doing to
increase your productivity what are you
doing to increase these things to
improve them well if your answer to this
question is nothing or if you are just
beginning to think seriously about what
you could do you have probably not yet
grasped the ideas presented in the
previous chapters you should be aware
that the chapters in this book resemble
the individual
of a jigsaw puzzle and each chapter is
related one to the other in such a way
that if we put them together we can see
the entire picture the entire picture at
an individual come up in one day the
seminar said you know canary said this
is all well and good and I'd like to go
ahead and do it but he said you realize
that by the time I reach this goal
I want to set he said I'm 50 now he said
for me to reach this goal I'd be 58 I
said well how old will you be if you
don't reach it come on think about it
now I mean the kind of thinking that we
get involved in Einstein said to all
conditions in all circumstances in our
lives he said they are a result of a
certain level of thinking now he said if
we want to change the conditions in the
circumstance we got to change the level
of thinking that's responsible for it we
got to change the level of thinking
that's responsible for it which is our
expectations must move to a new
dimension in this last paragraph since
you are now well into the heart of the
book I would ask you to pay particular
close attention to the ideas which
followed so you can use them to
successfully tie all the pieces together
you will soon discover that if the ideas
in this chapter are applied with
intelligence that expectation can be a
triggering mechanism which attracts into
your life every good that you desire you
know if you have something you desire
today what you do you know that puts you
in touch with it you're hooked up to it
you're in harmony with it right now
well it's your expectation that moves it
into your life we will always gravitate
towards that which we most secretly love
be it based of beautiful or a mixture of
both for into your hand will be placed
the exact result of your ideal your
vision into your hand will be placed the
exact result of your vision and your
ideal so expectation is the triggering
mechanism however if you do not exercise
extreme caution expectation can also
turn just as rapidly into a destructive
lethal enemy as people go around
expecting bad things to happen to them I
want to undo that what if this happens
therefore you must be cognizant of how
you are exercising this invisible but
powerful force we believe then that you
already understand that you cannot have
wealth in your material world until you
first visualize the wealth in your mind
have you ever considered that the
highest the most noble and the most
excellent thing about you is formless in
nature that the highest the most
excellent the most noble thing about you
is formless in nature but what does this
really mean it means that before any one
of us can ever begin to overcome the
poverty which surrounds us in our
external world we must first conquer the
impoverishment that is buried deep
within ourselves impoverishment meaning
many areas of our life some people are
emotionally bankrupt emotionally now
what we're going to do is Bob is going
to come up and take you through the rest
of this chapter and that will start on
page 32 and this will show us exactly
how this expectation releases or moves
this energy into what is called form and
no one will do that better than Bob
Procter thank you
flip over to page 32 now rather than
read that page I want to suggest that
you just listen and mentally go along
with me I'm going to attempt to paint a
picture in your mind I want you to image
an elderly couple that are living in the
backwoods they've been there all their
life they know nothing except what's in
their own immediate environment
now this elderly couple have never had
an experience of using electricity while
they've ever illuminated their home with
is a wax candle or a kerosene lamp
they've had travelers that drop by
periodically that have talked about this
idea of electricity but they have never
used it in the latter years of their
life they're transported into a small
town and to their amazement this house
is lighted with it little eight candle
bulbs now keep in mind all they've ever
used is the elect is the wax candle or
the kerosene lamps now to their
amazement they have this electricity it
would truly be magic to them now I want
you to imagine if you've just I don't
know maybe purchased a microwave oven
that has a sensory touch just the energy
coming from your finger will activate
the switch and it would cook a hotdog
faster than you could pour a glass of
milk we stand and we look at those
things even when we're using them when
we're alone and we will have you think
wow you know
meaning he's not able to talk to us it's
not able to allow for this but we're
amused by this concept
well this couple I would imagine would
go over and they touch the switch
remember light to them was fire up to
that point and they're amazed that it
doesn't burn them and they just flipped
the switch the light's gone it's dark
again I would imagine me to look at this
Wow think of it experience this in your
mind they have never ever seen anything
like this before they do it together and
then when they are alone they wander
over and they flipped that switch again
see their expectation would be that a
fire and every time they get near light
they expected to be burned but now
they're finding that this doesn't burn
them it's much better to read by if they
had a book they could sit and they'd
read it so much easier with this new
light than they would have with the old
well you know electricity is very very
much like this power that we use in many
respects if you're going to work with
electricity you must work from a higher
to a lower potential any engineer any
electrician will be quick to tell you
that if you attempt to work from a lower
to a higher potential you'll get no use
out of the electricity certainly no
positive use they'll also tell
you that electricity can cook a person's
dinner or it can cook the person and the
truth is we have used it for both on
occasion you can use the electricity to
freeze food or you can use electricity
to fry the food it can be used one way
or another one day after this elderly
couple had become used to this new
concept and they can turn the light on
without any fear of being burned and
there used to these little eight candle
powered bulbs a traveler knocks on their
door the traveler is holding a light
bulb and he's saying those little bulbs
are no good anymore there's not enough
light from them the illumination it's
limited what you really need is one of
these sixty candle powered bulbs those
little eight candle powered bulbs are
really next to useless the elderly
couple of course doesn't really know
what the travelers talking about why he
said you know that one of these bulbs
would illuminate this room to a greater
degree than all of these bulbs put
together said let me show you and he
goes around and he loosens all the
little bulbs but one then he takes the
one remaining bulb that's burning and he
takes it right out of the soffit and he
puts in the sixty candle power bulb and
when to their amazement that entire room
is illuminated illuminated like daylight
they have difficulty believing that so
much light could come from one bulb now
I want you to imagine that traveller
attempting to tell that elderly couple
that the magic is not in the bulb that
the power
had always been there they'd say oh no
way
the magic send the bulb you go back to
the electrician of the engineer and
they'll tell you that the only limits
placed on this power that we call
electricity that is illuminating this
stage the only limits placed on it are
the limits that's placed on the form
through which it blows namely the
transformer or the bulb likewise the
only limit that's placed on this power
are the limits that's placed on the form
through which it flows and if you want
to illuminate your life to a greater
degree all that is necessary is for you
to build a bigger idea understand the
laws of this power impregnate this part
of your personality with that bigger
idea and you will see your results
changed just as fast as the light in
that room changed now I'm going to give
you an excellent example at the break I
had a gentleman come over and talk to me
he's sitting right over here on my land
and he showed me something I read you a
letter yesterday or in an earlier lesson
where Joanne white Kansas City told me
about her son going to the seminary 1976
and the change that took place that
letter was dated February 1986 there's
this gentleman sitting on the side here
she want to stand up for a minute please
he came to the seminar in February 1986
what were you earning prior to that L
approximately eighteen thousand eighteen
thousand dollars I'm going to relate
to the little eight Kendall Howard bulb
now approximately what are you earning
today per year approximately five
hundred five hundred thousand dollars he
didn't he mess around with a sixty
candle Powerball now I referred to my
son's manager yesterday this man has the
same manager and I was mentioning that
your environment is vitally important
see not only as Bryan force enough to
have the same manager he's fortunate
enough to have an associate like Al
there are 20,000 agents selling real
estate in Al's company is that correct
al that's within remix international
there's 20,000 correct how many of the
20,000 al now think of the way I'm
asking you the question of 20,000 how
many of them sell more in a year than
you did about 13 he stands number 14 out
of 20 thousand salespeople many of these
people would be in the business for a
number of years Al's been in the
business since February 1986 how many in
Canada sell more than you l hate sort so
changes daily I guess
when you handed this to me at the break
and that's when he gave it to me what
did you tell me made the difference just
changing changing my attitude and
following some of the things that I've
picked up through your seminars you came
here seminary shortly after you started
and he took these ideas and look what
he's done with them
give me another hand
you know I mentioned early in the book
that reading and memorizing this
information does absolutely no good I
have been in this business a long long
time I've been in it just about as long
as Brian's been living and I have
watched many people come in and go to
this business many of them could talk
very intelligently about this but only a
few ever really learned how to use it
you've got to stick with this and you
have to take these lessons seriously
sound a little silly at times but it's
like the little young guy from
Burlington that I mentioned Tim crow
Chuck he said although this stuff may
sound hokey it works you see L went from
an $18,000 idea to a $500,000 dollar
idea
this power doesn't recognize difference
yet just takes whatever you give to it
and turns it into form
I was just reading from belief in the
torchbearer series you just saw young
mark he obviously believed what John
suggested to him we received a call here
just recently in our office Mark's last
report card
he received 82 82 in his last report
card l suppose Erie obviously believed
he had a $500,000 idea locked up within
him
you see mark was always capable of
getting the 82 and Al was always capable
of earning the five hundred thousand a
year you're capable of doing what you
want you believe and you can do it is
there a better position in your life is
there a better report card in your life
believe you'll get it
