A Common Stumbling Block to Wealth

There is one emotion which is the cause of the lack of
wealth in the lives of many. Most people learn this the hard
way. It is envy. For example, if you see a competitor depositing
large sums of money in the bank, and you have only a meager
amount to deposit, does it make you envious? The way to
overcome this emotion is to say to yourself, “Isn’t it wonderful!
I rejoice in that man’s prosperity. I wish for him greater and
greater wealth.”
To entertain envious thoughts is devastating because it
places you in a very negative position; therefore, wealth flows
from you instead of to you. If you are ever annoyed or irritated
by the prosperity or great wealth of another, claim immediately
that you truly wish for him greater wealth in every possible
way. This will neutralize the negative thoughts in your mind
and cause an ever-greater measure of wealth to flow to you by
the law of your own subconscious mind.
