Your belief that you can do the thing gives your thought forces their power

The source and center of all man's creative power. . . is his power of making images, or the power of imagination.

A single idea / the sudden flash of a thought / may be worth a million dollars.

Make every thought, every fact, that comes into your mind pay you a profit. Make it work and produce for you. Think of things not as they are but as they might be. Don't merely dream - but create!

Belief gets in the way of learning.

The shock of discovering that most of the power in the world is held by ignorant and greedy people can really bum you out at first; but after you've lived with it a few decades, it becomes, like cancer and other plagues, just another problem that we will solve eventually if we keep working at it.
