you will find your whole life changing. You will find yourself with more heart for your work, and things will seem easier to do. Depressions will grow less frequent and less profound, and in time they will entirely cease, and you will find new ideas coming to you about how to do your work. Then your interest in it will increase and you will begin to know the joy of the successful artist.

When you arrive at this stage you will wake some morning to find yourself making more money And you will find yourself with a little real faith, or conviction, that in due time your Ideal will become real After that all is easy — our Ideal will live you, instead of having to be carefully nurtured at stated intervals.

Between the times when you gaze specially upon your Ideal it is well to forget it as fully as possible Put your best thought into your work. But never neglect your stated seasons with your Ideal.

All life is growth, and a live Ideal is no exception. Let it grow Stretch your imagination to take in all you can When you find yourself approaching the $5,ooo-a-year mark you have set for yourself you will find yourself wanting $10,000. Now don’t accuse yourself of never being satisfied. Just rejoice in this evidence of spiritual growth, enlarge your operations and go in to win on a larger scale.

When you have got your children well educated don’t stagnate. Look within and find another Ideal to work for.

Your Ideals are God-given for use. Look eagerly upon them and know that they are Life.

You do not make your Ideals; they make you—if you keep mentally in touch with them.
