The method by which DESIRE for riches can be transmuted into its financial equivalent, consists of six definite, practical steps, viz:

First. Fix in your mind the exact amount of money you
desire. It is not sufficient merely to say “I want plenty of money.”
Be definite as to the amount. (There is a psychological reason for
definiteness which will be described in a subsequent chapter).


Second. Determine exactly what you intend to give in
return for the money you desire. (There is no such reality as
“something for nothing.)

Third. Establish a definite date when you intend to possess
the money you desire.

Fourth. Create a definite plan for carrying out your desire,
and begin at once, whether you are ready or not, to put this plan
into action.

Fifth. Write out a clear, concise statement of the amount of
money you intend to acquire, name the time limit for its
acquisition, state what you intend to give in return for the
money, and describe clearly the plan through which you intend
to accumulate it.

Sixth. Read your written statement aloud, twice daily, once
just before retiring at night, and once after arising in the
morning. AS YOU READ—SEE AND FEEL AND BELIEVE
YOURSELF ALREADY IN POSSESSION OF THE MONEY.

It is important that you follow the instructions described in
these six steps. It is especially important that you observe, and
follow the instructions in the sixth paragraph. You may complain
that it is impossible for you to “see yourself in possession of money”
before you actually have it. Here is where a BURNING DESIRE will
come to your aid. If you truly DESIRE money so keenly that your
desire is an obsession, you will have no difficulty in convincing
yourself that you will acquire it. The object is to want money, and to
become so determined to have it that you CONVINCE yourself you
will have it.
