This book has presented the essential steps and guidelines needed to utilize the power of the mind, specifically that of the subconscious. This is very crucial to the realization of goals and aspirations, and this is a power that all humans possess if they would learn to wield it. This is the premise Joseph Murphy tries to establish in his book. The following is a direct quote that can be found in the book;
“As you sow in your subconscious mind, so shall your reap in your body and environment. Imagine your subconscious mind as a bed of rich soil that will help all kinds of seeds to sprout and flourish, whether good or bad. Every thought is a cause and every condition is an effect. This is the reason it is so essential that you take charge of your thoughts. In that way you can bring forth only desirable conditions.”
The subconscious mind is so powerful that it can interfere with the normal working condition of the body. People who get depressed, anxious, and sad can be susceptible to body malfunctions such as heart, lungs, stomach, and intestines among other organs or system malfunctions. This is usually able to be fixed when you communicate with your subconscious mind and relax. According to Joseph Murphy’s book, what you feed and speak to your subconscious mind is what will translate into the physical. So if you are happy, relaxed and unperturbed, the effect would be a well-functioning body system and a realization of goals. On the contrary, when you let your subconscious mind be consumed by the feeling of unrest and anxiety, the result would be discomfort, illness, and overall lack of achievement.
