Suggestion is Power

Suggestion is Power. Chapter 4 of the Magic of Believing by Claude Bristol.

Suggestion is power. Repetition of mantras, words or formulas is basic to all religions and play their part.

This brings us to the power of suggestion and autosuggestion which causes the subconscious mind to begin its creative work.

Once belief becomes a deep conviction, things begin to happen. It is the law of suggestion.

Suggestion is power – through raising our expectations. It’s the ACT of BELIEVING that is the starting force or generating power that leads to successful accomplishment

Suggestion is a powerful weapon in the hands of anyone who knows how to use it positively.

“ Every person is the creation of himself, the image of his own thinking and believing. As individuals think and believe, so they are.” – Claude Bristol

Mind is your Supreme Commander

Chapter 3 of Magic of Believing by Claude Bristol involves the subconscious mind.

The conscious mind is the source of thought while the subconscious mind is the source of power. Thought power is your supreme commander.

A close harmony between the conscious and subconscious mind is a work of art that allows for the best results in life.

Subconscious power includes intuition, emotion, inspiration, imagination, psychic powers and dynamic energy.

Keeping your mind on what you do want assists in attracting your desires.

“ The person with a fixed goal, a clear picture of his desire, or an ideal always before him, causes it, through repetition, to be buried deeply in his subconscious mind

and is thus enabled, thanks to its generative and sustaining power, to realize his goal in a minimum of time and with a minimum of physical effort.” – Claude Bristol

the Power of Thought

The Power of Thought inspired by Chapter 2 of the self help classic The Magic of Believing by Claude Bristol, revised for 2012.

Rolls-Royce luxury automobiles, F-22 jet airplanes and $150,000,000 exquisite mansions – where did they come from originally?

Only one source, from that creative force – THOUGHT. Obssessive thinking and a burning desire makes it so.

Keep your mind off the things you don’t want and on the things you do want. This is the secret to power and plenty.

Something more than hard work is necessary. It is creative thinking and firm belief in your ability to achieve your ideas.

All of our possessions came as a result of our creative thinking. Thought is the source of all wealth.

Successful people have succeeded through their thinking. Their hands were helpers to their brains.

“ There is nothing good or bad, but thinking makes it so.” – William Shakespeare

That’s the power of the magic of believing. Belief may be a miracle worker.

There’s genuine magic in believing.  It’s the act of believing that is the starting force or generating power that leads to successful accomplishment.

I firmly believe that there is.”  – Claude Bristol
