Remember YOUR castle.



A king was out hunting with his princes in a forest many miles from the castle. A sudden snowstorm fell on the party. In the confusion, the king was separated from the others. When he failed to return to the castle after four days he was given up as lost. But on the fifth day, he appeared in the warm dining room.

Someone asked him how he had found strength enough to keep going. The king replied, "I remembered all that the castle means to me."
That kind of thinking will keep anyone going forward. Even while involved in difficulties and obstacles, we can remember what it means to succeed. This remembrance creates a powerful emotional force that carries us through.
It is helpful to concentrate on some specific castle, that is, some special goal of yours. Examples:
To be less tense and anxious
To build a brighter future
To banish depression
To be a better businessperson
To have smoother human relations.
Think of what it means to win one of these. Remember the rewards that go with your success. This supplies strength that keeps you going all the way to your castle.

"A thrill passes through all men at the reception of a new truth . . ." (Emerson)
There is a hidden fire in your nature, which if you turn outward, will guide you into prosperity. Learn how to turn this fire over the world by repeating: “The words that I speak unto you, it is not I that speak, but the Father that dwelleth in me.” ECH
