The insight for today:
“IS VISUALIZING HOLDING A THOUGHT?
Question—How can the statement that we should not hold thoughts be reconciled with the endeavor to visualize, or see, things mentally as we wish them to be? Is not the effort to (page 18) visualize a thing as it should be, the act of ‘holding a thought?'”
“ANSWER—There is a difference between visualization and holding thoughts. To visualize means to mentally see, to conceive of an image in thought of some definite desire, while holding thoughts too often becomes a mere process of willing things to happen. It is not necessary either to hold thoughts or visualize in order to demonstrate—although visualization might often be a very substantial prop to the acquirement of a correct consciousness. As the plant is potential in the seed, so the thing inheres in the concept of it, and every word, as has been stated by a great thinker, carries its own mechanics with it.”
RGCSL Daily Insights:
“Thought should be loosed, not held, but loosed in the full conviction that it is a tangible, definite, spiritual entity in an intelligent and receptive law, whose business it is to take the concept and evolve it into tangible form.”
“It operates simply by speaking.”
– Ernest Holmes
