“The principle of psychology through which you canimpress your definite chief aim upon your subconsciousmind is called Auto-suggestion, or suggestion which you

repeatedly make to yourself. It is a degree of self- hypnotism, but do not be afraid of it on that account, forit was this same principle through the aid of whichNapoleon lifted himself from the lowly station of poverty- stricken orsican to the dictatorship of !rance. It wasthrough the aid of this same principle that Thomas A."dison has risen from the lowly beginning of a newsbutcher to where he is accepted as the leading inventorof the world. It was through the aid of this same

principle that #incoln bridged the mighty chasm betweenhis lowly birth, in a log cabin in the mountains of$entucky, and the presidency of the greatest nation onearth. It was through the aid of this same principle thatTheodore %oosevelt became one of the most aggressiveleaders that ever reached the presidency of the &nited'tates.
