Thinking Truth Regardless of Appearance

The following is taken from Wallace D. Wattles 'Science of Getting Rich," first introduced to me during a year long coaching & mentorship program with Bob Proctor in 2004-2005 :

There is a thinking stuff from which all things were made, and which, in its original state, permeates, penetrates, and fills the interspaces of the universe.

A thought in this substance produces the thing that is imaged by the thought.

You can form things in your thought, and by impressing your thought upon formless substance, can cause the thing you think about to be created.

...To do things in a way you want to do them, you will have to acquire the ability to think the way you want to think.....To think what you want to think is to think truth regardless of appearances.

You have the natural and inherent power to think what you want to think, but it requires far more effort to do so than it does to think the thoughts which are suggested by appearances. To think according to appearances is easy. To think truth regardless of appearances is laborious and requires the expenditure of more power than any other work you have to perform.

I'm not sure about that. This afternoon, while thinking about optionality, and gamma, theta, and delta ratios it felt like I was expending a lot of brain power !

My mind drifted from work for a few minutes, and I was alarmed at the clarity of what I permitted myself to see. I had to walk around a bit to regain focus.

More later...
