The Invisible Mentor

I read Key to Yourself by Venice Bloodworth and extracted 10 lessons I think are worth learning. This is a book I really enjoy and read each year. It is not for everyone because it is very Christian-oriented, but not preachy. First published in 1952, the focus is on Law of Attraction, long before the term became “cool.”

1. Fear nothing, you have the inner power to conquer all
2. Life gives back to us exactly what we give
3. Thoughts are causes, conditions are effects. If you don’t like the condition change your thoughts
4. Fear makes cowards of us all
5. The secret to success is to fill your subconscious with desire, ambition, courage, determination, enthusiasm, and faith in yourself
6. The greatest barriers to individual progress are conformity and a slavish devotion to precedent
7. What people are and do depend entirely on the use of their inner power
8. Most of us reflect the opinions of others – we fear the search for truth. Instead, we should think new thoughts and blaze new trails
9. Health, happiness and prosperity are not limited to time, place or individual
10. There is plenty of time to accomplish everything that is important to us

“For the best verse hasn’t been rhymed yet.

The best house hasn’t been planned

The highest peak hasn’t been climbed yet,

The mightiest rivers aren’t spanned.

Don’t worry and fret, faint hearted

The chances have just begun,

For the Best jobs haven’t been started,

The Best work hasn’t been done.”
