Show Powers From Within "I've never met a person," says Dr. Preston Bradley, "I don't care what his condition, in whom I could not see possibilities. I don't care how much a man may consider himself a failure, I believe in him, for he can change the thing that is wrong in his life any time he is prepared and ready to do it. Whenever he develops the desire, he can take away from his life the thing that is defeating it. The j capacity for reformation and change lies within." Triumphant, victorious living depends on our own inner attitude. One cannot climb up, while thinking down. One .cannot develop power while thinking weakness. At the end of his life, Charles Darwin made the wise observation that man differed less in capacity than in zeal and determination to use the powers they have. And it was William James, the psychologist, who taught that the aver- age man uses only 10 per cent of his potential ability. Few! men energize up to their maximum. The real person to blame for our failures is usually one's own self. We may rave against fate, conditions and! bad luck but it is just a waste of time. The secret of conquest con-quest is to turn on more power within. The scientists tell us we have it. It's up to us to put it to work. |
