See yourself with the good that you desire. Every religious book tells us that, every great book on philosophy, every great leader, all the avatars who have ever lived. Co back and study
the wise ones. Many of them have been presented to yon in this book. Thei/ all mitierstooti one thing. They understood The Secret. Now yon understand it. And the more yon use it, the more you 11 understand it.
The Secret is within vou. The more you use the power within you, the more you will draw it to you. You will reach a point where you won't need to practice anymore, because you will Be the power, you will be the perfection, you will Be the wisdom, you will Be the intelligence, you will Be the love, you will Be the joy.
MICHAEL BERNARD BECKWITH
I believe that you're great, that there's something magnificent about yon. Regardless of what has happened to you in your life. Regardless of how young or old you think you might be. The moment you begin to "think properly," this something that's within you, this power within you that's greater than the world, it will begin to emerge. It will take over your life. It will feed you. It will clothe you. It will guide you, protect you, direct you, sustain your very existence. If you let it. Now that is what I know, for sure.
Lisa Nichols
You've come to this juncture in your life, merely because something m you kept saying, "You deserve to be happy." You were horn to add something, to add value to this world. To simply be sotuethiug, bigger mid better than you were yesterday.
Every single thing you've been through, every single moment that i/on'i'c come through, were to all prepare you for this moment right now. Imagine what you can do from this day forward with what you now know. Now you get that you are the creator of your destiny. So how much more do you get to do? How much more do you get to be? How many more people do you get to bless, simply hy your mere existence? What will you do with the moment? How will you seize the moment? No one else can dance your dance, no one else can sing your sotig, no one else can write your story. Who you are, what you do, begins right now!
The earth turns on its orbit for You. The oceans ebb and flow for You. The birds sing for You. The sun rises and it sets for You. The stars come out for You. Every beautiful thing you see, every wondrous thing you experience, is all there, for You. Take a look around. None of it can exist, without You. No matter who you thought you were, now you know the Truth of Who You Reallv Are. You are the master of the Universe. You are the heir to the kingdom. You are the perfection of Life. And now you know The Secret.
May the joy be with you!
"The secret is the answer to all that has been, all that is, and all that will ever be."
