Concentration Finds The Way
Everyone has two natures. One wants us to advance and the other wants to pull us back. The
one that we cultivate and concentrate on decides what we are at the end. Both natures are
trying to gain control.
The will alone decides the issue. A man by one supreme effort of the will may change his whole
career and almost accomplish miracles. You may be that man. You can be if you Will to be, for
Will can find a way or make one.
I could easily fill a book, of cases where men plodding along in a matter-of-fact way, were all at
once aroused and as if awakening from a slumber they developed the possibilities within them
and from that time on were different persons.
You alone can decide when the turning point will come.
It is a matter of choice whether we allow our diviner self to control us or whether we will be
controlled by the brute within us. No man has to do anything he does not want to do. He is
therefore the director of his life if he wills to be. What we are to do, is the result of our training.
We are like putty, and can be completely controlled by our will power.
Habit is a matter of acquirement. You hear people say: "He comes by this or that naturally, a
chip off the old block," meaning that he is only doing what his parents did. This is quite often the
case, but there is no reason for it, for a person can break a habit just the moment he masters
the "I will."
A man may have been a "good-for-nothing" all his life up to this very minute, but from this time
on he begins to amount to something. Even old men have suddenly changed and accomplished
wonders. "I lost my opportunity," says one. That may be true, but by sheer force of will, we can
find a way to bring us another opportunity.
There is no truth in the saying that opportunity knocks at our door but once in a lifetime. The fac
is, opportunity never seeks us; we must seek it. What usually turns out to be one man's
opportunity, was another man's loss. In this day one man's brain is matched against another's.
