There are three basic steps in the Creative Law of Prosperity:
1) Having a plan, writing out your desires concerning that plan and constantly expanding it
2) Mentally imaging that plan as fulfilled
3) Constantly affirming its perfect fulfillment

Without the first part, the other two are ineffective.

Today we’ll talk about this first step – desire and the ability to do something constructive about that desire.

There is nothing weak or lukewarm about true desire. It is intense, powerful. If it’s properly developed and expressed it carries with it the power for success. The stronger your desires for good, the greater the power of your desires to produce that good for you.

How can you release your deep-seated desires for prosperity and success? By centering your attention on one big goal at a time. One big goal always includes a number of small desires that are automatically fulfilled went he big one is achieved. We influence people and events by having great desires and great goals.  It is as though everything and everybody subconsciously tunes in on our big desires and goals, and gets busy helping us to achieve them.

Use this affirmation “I desire the highest and best in life, and I now draw the highest and best to me.”

Write down your desires:
Take your deep-seated desires and, instead of suppressing them as impossible dreams, begin expressing them constructively by deciding what they really are. Then doing something very simple but very powerful about them – WRITE THEM DOWN.

Make a list or draw up some potential plan (make sure you remember you are free to change, revise, reform and rearrange your ideas about it as necessary). Writing out your desires and formulating a plan on paper clarifies the desires in you mind and the mind produces definite results only when it has been given definite ideas through which to work.

Don’t be afraid to be definite in your thoughts and desires. Don’t just say you want to live better – say HOW you want to live – what does “better” mean to you. Instead of saying you want “more” money – how much money do you want – get specific, get definite. “Desire is God tapping at the door of your mind, trying to give you greater good.” ~Dr. Emilie Cady.

If you suppress those deep desires, they have no constructive outlet and often turn into destructive channels expressed as neurotic tendencies, phobias, tension or perhaps as suppression that finds outlet through alcoholism, mental illness, addiction, other negative actions.

You must form a vacuum in order for prosperity to come into your life.

Once you have formed that vacuum, do whatever you can to effect the rich feeling and the rich atmosphere.

Mention the apparent lack or vacuum to NO ONE!!! Silence is one of the most important tools you can employ while working the laws of the Universe. Speaking about the lack and limitation keeps many people in the poorhouse financially (and in other areas of their lives as well). Never think of yourself as poor or needy! do not talk about hard times or the necessity for strict economy. Do NOT think about how little you have – think about how much you have. Use your best china and silver, wear your best clothes.

As you form a vacuum and let go of what you do not want; as you use your present visible supply to meet the immediate needs as best you can. As you live as richly as possible in the face of appearances – the rich results will begin to come forth. Amazingly new channels of supply will appear to meet your needs.  You’ll discover other financial assets in your life – these will be things you were previously unaware of. You’ll be surprised – other people will do things to add to your riches – you’ll receive gifts – gifts of money, gifts of free meals, you’ll find sales, etc.

Your quiet confidence is your strength during this time. Always remember to ask for divine guidance concerning the practical as well as the spiritual ways in which you may form a vacuum for new prosperity.

Do NOT panic. This is just another opportunity for you to prove the invisible laws of prosperity can produce visible results.

If you learn hot to form a vacuum for new good early in your conscious development of prosperous thinking, then you do not panic at financial challenges – you know that you can meet them head on and emerge victorious.

Remember to think not in terms of lack but think in terms of the universal abundance that surrounds us and is just there for us to pull into our lives.

As you give up and cast away old ideas and attitudes, old possessions, and put them in their place new ideas of prosperity, your conditions will steadily improve.

There must be constant elimination of the old to keep pace with this growth. When you cling to the old, you hinder your advance or stop it altogether.

Embark on your vacuum-creating process today…
