Robert Collier’s Principles Of Success



Action
Begin to free yourself at once by doing all that is possible with the means you have, and as you proceed in this spirit the way will open for you to do more.

Affirmation
You must intensify and render continuous by repeatedly presenting with suggestive ideas and mental pictures of the feast of good things, and the flowing fountain, which awaits the successful achievement or attainment of the desires.

Conflict

One might as well try to ride two horses moving in different directions, as to try to
maintain in equal force two opposing or contradictory sets of desires.

Desire

Plant the seed of desire in your mind and it forms a nucleus with power to attract to itself everything needed for its fulfillment. The first principle of success is desire - knowing what you want. Desire is the planting of your seed. Very few persons, comparatively, know how to Desire with sufficient intensity. They do not know what it is to feel and manifest that intense, eager, longing, craving, insistent, demanding, ravenous Desire which is akin to the persistent, insistent, ardent, overwhelming desire of the drowning man for a breath of air; of the shipwrecked or desert-lost man for a drink of water; of the famished man for bread and meat…

Giving
You have to sow before you can reap. You have to give before you can get.

Imagination
Pictures help you to form the mental mold...

Luck
All of us have bad luck and good luck. The man who persists through the bad luck - who keeps right on going - is the man who is there when the good luck comes - and is ready to receive it.

Obstacles
The mere fact that you have obstacles to overcome is in your favor...

Planning
Make your mold. The best flux in the world will not make a usable shape unless you have a mold to pour it in.

Success
Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out...

Visualization
See things as you would have them be instead of as they are.

FYI, Robert Collier is an author of self-help and New Thought metaphysical books.
