When shall we learn that the wasteful, destructive thoughts are our great enemies? It takes but a few minutes to burn a house which it may have taken years to erect. A single stroke of the artist's brush will ruin a picture on which he may have been working for years. It is possible for the mind, through anger, jealousy, through pessimistic, melancholy, worrying, destructive thoughts, to spoil life's great picture which we have been many years in painting.

Try this experiment, the very next time you get discouraged or think you are a failure, that your work does not amount to much — turn about face. Resolve that you will go no further in that direction. Stop and face the other way, and go the other way. Every time you think you are a failure, it helps you to become one, for your thought is your life pattern. You can not get away from your thought. You can not get away from your ideals, the standard which you hold for yourself, and if you acknowledge in your thought that you are a failure, that you can't do anything worth while, as other people do, that luck is against you, that you don't have the same opportunity that other people have your convictions will control the result.
