Therefore Success depends upon your having a warm heart and your radiating at all times, Love. This radiation is called improperly, "Personal magnetism." It, like magnetism, is a Mode of Motion, and it is like magnetism, one of the forms of Universal Attraction, and in its attractive power, it acts as magnetism does. But it is Love under control of the individual Ego as Will. Will directing the Life-force, which is Love, is the secret of Success. Therefore only as you love and throw yourself into your Thought will you succeed. Love as force can be diffused, expended upon a variety of things; under a variety of wishes, passions and endeavors; failure in high endeavor is the result. Sexual passion is but one way and not, by far, the most destructive. For with it does go some human feeling. But concentration upon mere business success, upon mere money getting, upon a life of mere superficial excitement; a life of mere pleasure; these in time completely absorb the Human element; are most vitiating in the making a success in Character.

For Health let your love manifest to all about you. A smile, a word of cheer, a helping hand, a generous deed, are stepping stones to success in business, in health and in happiness, because they are openings for the stream of love; are developing those radiations of personal influence that cause others to feel us, to respect us, to confide in us, and to do as we wish them to do. Cold heartless men may succeed in their special line, but they succeed at the expense of health and of the love of their fellows.

Remember, Love is Power. As such it will either use us in its blind animal way, or we will use it intelligently, as we do other forms of Power. I can give you no greater thought, were I to exhaust all language, than this. The Sub-conscious is God manifesting as Love and this Power of God is subject to Thought, the Human expression. Love can be, is to be, directed by Thought. "By my Thought, by my Auto-Suggestion
