More from yesterday’s topic of increase.

You should convey the impression of increase with everything you do, so that all people will receive that rich impression. Whether writing, telephoning, thinking about meeting others, give your family, social acquaintances, business acquaintances, friends, world leaders – everyone – the thought of increased good.

When speaking of someone, speak in terms of their success only. If you know of someone who has been making a comeback from past mistakes, contribute to making his unfolding success by ignoring his past and emphasizing only his present good. Not only will you add to his increased good but you can be assured the skeletons on your own closet will be rattled less. I don’t know about you but this might be the most difficult thing for me to do especially if there is just that one person that gets “on your nerves”. But I have to continue to remind myself of this!

Give Yourself Thought of Increase

Give yourself an equal thought of increase. You can do it just by feeling that you are becoming more successful and that you are helping others to do so too. Every act, tone and look should express a quiet, rich assurance of success. You don’t need words of success to convince others of that success. You’ll get that feeling of richness implanted in your mind. It then radiates from you and subconsciously communicated to others. You’ll find that everyone will want to be associated with you. They will be able to sense your successful vibrations.

As you work quietly to get that feeling of richness, success and prosperity you’ll draw to you prosperity minded people you’ve never even seen before – people who will become your customers, business associates and friends. You will be surrounded by an atmosphere of increase. Also as you give the thought of increase to others, they are automatically attracted to you.

Try to invoke the law of increase in every way – large and small. A woman helped her husband out of financial doldrums but saying to him every day when he returned home from work “Now, tell me every GOOD thing that happened today.” They were both surprised to see how much good came to pass and how much they had to be thankful for.

This is also where daily use of the Gratitude Journal is so important. Do you have your copy of the Gratitude Journal?

Normal people (you and me) are seeking an increase in what we call the basic staples – food, clothing, better homes, knowledge, time, pleasure, luxury, satisfaction etc – more increase in everything. This is normal and should not be condemned or suppressed.

When people criticize, condemn or belittle others, they do not realized that through the law of mind action, they are asking for the same things to happen to them. Never waste your time giving yourself or others the thought of decrease. What you send out comes back to you multiplied and it will produce corresponding experiences in your life.

Do NOT talk of bad times and do not allow those around you to do the same – walk away if you cannot change their topics of discussion. Do NOT think about bad times no matter what is happening – declare “That is not my truth; my truth is lavish riches and prosperity in all aspects of my life”.

You can invoke the law of increase in simple ways. You should speak the law of increase about yourself and others boldly and positively. Look and act out the law of increase and image and affirm rich increase. Although this may seem foolish and nearly impossible to do (I can hear the naysayers as I type), I can tell you that it makes a big difference in your outcome. I used a similar technique to prevent me from worrying (and thus worsening the situation) over a major life situation I was facing – something I had not experienced before. I had an affirmation I used every time I started to think of it in a negative way. I really did come out of it smelling like a rose! So, I am not just preaching it, I’m practicing it too.

If we are using the law of decrease then we’re only delaying our own prosperity. If you use the law of decrease and limit your good, you are never satisfied with the limited result. This applies to our feelings of self-worth too. I was living the law of decrease by not stepping out and taking chances because I was “too shy” and “people wouldn’t like me” and “what do I have to offer anyone”. Well, the 30 day Blog challenge I participated in got me to step out and try things I had never done before and go beyond my comfort zone. And you know what? Using that law of increase rather than the law of decrease (sitting back like a scaredy cat) let my life unfold before me in a way that I never believed would happen.  It really does work.

You’ve heard people say you have to “act as if”? If not, then let me introduce you to one of the most important parts of achieving prosperity – Acting as if.

You are now beginning to believe you are a prosperous thinker (this is assuming you’ve been through our previous posts and lessons on the “Dynamic Laws of Prosperity” – Catherine Ponder’s glorious work).

First you have to establish and maintain an attitude of rich increase toward EVERYTHING and EVERYBODY! Let your main thought, when thinking of yourself and others, be the thought of riches, prosperity, great good and success. Believe it or not, just by thinking these things you CAN make it so.

Give others your benefit of rich and successful thoughts – this will help them become that way even if they are not consciously aware of what you’re doing.

One example that Catherine Ponder gave was of a man who was  credit manager collecting overdue accounts. He used this concept of seeing the good and richness in others and he led in collections for the entire company which had offices all over the south. On one customer who owed thousands of dollars he said to the officials of the company “the only way we will collect all this money is by being kind, courteous and positive in talking to him. We’ve got to restore some faith in himself; we’ve got to show him that we believe he will soon be able to pay this amount in full. Criticism will get us nowhere.” After they did that the man turned his life around and instead of declaring bankruptcy he was able to begin paying back the money he owed.

Make the affirmations the last phase of a three step formula for prosperity.

1) Daily write out your notes of desired good.

2) Mentally image the successful results.

3) Boldly and Deliberately affirm and command those successful results to appear.

If you persist daily in following these three simple steps, you will not be able to stop the flood of good from overflowing into your life.

You can have any of God’s rich good for which you are willing to pay the price of daily affirmations and command. There is no easier or more exciting way of changing your thinking and getting on the road to success. You become what you want to be by affirming that you already are!

I love the Law of Command. I would benefit much more from it and the other steps if I were to implement all the steps deliberately every single day. I’m willing to commit to this  – are you? Post your comments below.

Maybe you’re in a situation where there is little privacy for you to use the Law of Command.

If that’s the case, write out your affirmations over and over again. Perhaps it’s been a hectic day, write out an affirmation hundreds of times concerning the perfect solution to a business disagreement or situation. “This situation does not dismay me. God is with me to uphold and sustain me, and to make all things right I trust everything in my life to the tender care of the father. I know His will for me is health, happiness, prosperity, spiritual unfoldment and all that is good.”

As you go to sleep then affirm over and over “Nothing but good can come into my life, God is in charge.”

Do you have health issues? “Let Divine health manifest for me and in me now.” Do NOT discuss your medical problems or experiences and do NOT let your friends discuss it either. Do not keep things alive or give them energy. Your purpose is simply to affirm and command life in you.

Remember that prosper means to thrive or succeed in any given goal and desired objective.  When we write about prosperity, we write of the desire for wholeness and balance in one’s life and affairs.  Life is worth little without health or the ability to produce it.

Prosperity means everything in your life! Use the Law of Command.
