"The Power Of Word"


A person knowing the power of the word

A person knowing the power of the word, becomes very careful of his conversation. He has only to watch the reaction of his words to know that they do "not return void." Through his spoken word, man is continually making laws for himself.

I knew a man who said, "I always miss a car. It invariably pulls out just as I arrive."

His daughter said: "I always catch a car. It's sure to come just as I get there." This occurred for years. Each had made a separate law for himself, one of failure, one of succes.. This is the psychology of superstitions.

The horse-shoe or rabbit's foot contains no power, but man's spoken word and belief that it will bring good luck creates expectancy in the subconscious mind, and attracts a "lucky situation." I find however, this will not "work" when man has advanced spiritually and knows a higher law. One cannot turn back, and must put away "graven images."

For example: Two men in my class had had great success in business for several months, when suddenly everything "went to smash." We tried to analyze the situation, and I found, instead of making their affirmations and looking to God for succ
ess and prosperity, they had each bought a "lucky monkey." I said: "Oh I see, you have been trusting in the lucky monkeys instead of God." "Put away the lucky monkeys and call on the law of forgiveness," for man has power to forgive or neutralize his mistakes.

They decided to throw the lucky monkeys down a coal hole, and all went well again. This does not mean, however, that one should throw away every "lucky" ornament or horse-shoe about the house, but he must recognize that the power back of it is the one and only power, God, and that the object simply gives him a feeling of expectancy.


I was with a friend, one day, who was in deep despair. In crossing the street, she picked up a horse-shoe. Immediately, she was filled with joy and hope.
She said God had sent her the horsehoe in order to keep up her courage.

It was indeed, at that moment, about the only thing that could have registered in her consciousness. Her hope became faith, and she ultimately made a wonderful demonstration. I wish to make the point clear that the men previously mentioned w
ere depending on the monkeys, alone, while this woman recognized the power back of the horseshoe.

I know, in my own case, it took a long while to get out of a belief that a certain thing brough disappointment. If the thing happened, disappointment invariably followed. I found the only way I could make a change in the subconscious, was by asserting, "There are not two powers, there is only one power, God, therefore, there are not disappoint
ments, and this thing means a happy surprise." I noticed a change at once, and happy surprises commenced coming my way.

I have a friend who said nothing could induce her to walk under a ladder. I said, "If you are afraid, you are giving in to a belief in two powers, Good and Evil, instead of one. As God is absolute, there can be no opposing power, unless man makes the false of evil for himself. To show you believe in only One Power, God, and that there is no power or reality in evil, walk under the next ladder you see."

Soon after, she went to her bank. She wished to open her box in the safe-deposit vault, and there stood a ladder on her pathway. It was impossible to reach the box without passing under the ladder. She quailed with fear and turned back. She could not face the lion on her pathway. However, when she reached the street, my words rang in her e
ars and she decided to return and walk under it. It was a big moment in her life, for ladders had held her in bondage for years. She retraced her steps to the vault, and the ladder was no longer there! This so often happens! If one is willing to do a thing he is afraid to do, he does not have to.

It is the law of nonresistance, which is so little understood

"How to be you a chic on the go!"

Fast Face
Learn how four products can get you a flawless face in minutes!

There are those moments in life when looking your best matters, but so do another 30 things you have on your plate. Between work and life there's little time for the modern woman to devote to her beauty routine. And even when you do have extra time on your hands, it doesn't mean you want to spend all of it turning yourself into a glam queen (although that's necessary sometimes). Having a few easy tools that make things easier in a time crunch is an ideal way of looking good without spending tons of time fooling with an eyelash curler.

Cover Up

Depending on how much coverage you need, opt for either a tinted moisturizer or a lightweight foundation. Paired with concealer, either will provide more than enough coverage to keep you looking fresh all day. Apply a light layer of tinted moisturizer or foundation, blending it thoroughly. Next, hit trouble spots, redness and dark circles with concealer that is one shade lighter than your skin shade. Blend the concealer in to even out skin tone and create a flawless look that isn't heavy.

Ring Around the Rosey

The next step is crucial in looking fresh, so choose your product accordingly. Look for a do-it-all stick in a soft peach or pink, depending on your skin tone. Fair to medium skin should choose a sheer pink with blue undertones, while tan or dark skin should choose a peach or coral-infused shade. A product ideal for this is Nars The Multiple, an all-purpose color stick. At the hefty price of $37, the stick easily lasts a year, and that's with daily use. The color is sheer, and can be applied with a heavy hand for more drama, making it the perfect color to pack when going from day to night. Even better, The Mulitple can be used on cheeks, eyes, and lips. Universal shades include Southbeach, Maldives, and Orgasm. With your skin perfected, hit the apples of your cheeks with The Multiple and blend with your fingers in an swift, upward motion.

Give 'em Lip!

After hitting your lips with your favorite lip balm, blend The Multiple into your lips, just as you would with a lipstick or gloss. This is the reason you want to choose a shade that best compliments your natural skin tone. The color is going on your cheeks and lips, so it should be a shade that compliments your undertones.

Batting Average

To get full lashes in only a few swipes, start with a dome shaped wand (CoverGirl's new Lash Blast mascara is a great pick that is affordable and delivers), and begin at the root of the lashes. Moving towards the tip, bring the wand back and forth in a zigzag motion, wrapping each lash in mascara and creating a wide eye in the process.

With only four products (maybe one less if you're able to do without concealer), and a few minutes, you've achieved a clean day look that works at the office, brunch with friends or for a day of shopping. Investing in one multi-purpose product that works seamlessly into any makeup routine can help you get the most out of your time

"Review to Cure the Acne and Skin Care"

Review to Cure the Acne and Skin Care
Those who have never suffered with acne (Zits) cannot possibly understand the stress it causes; however, many effective treatments are available. Medical investigation and research is ongoing and making interesting discoveries; now, some of these skin conditions are gradually being conquered. Although the number of acne skin care products and treatments might at first seem endless, they can actually be categorized into three areas:


Tips to Cure Acne and Skin Care.
Drugstore or Internet: Preventative medication
Over-the-counter: Treatment Prescription only: Requires visit to doctor.
General acne products are used as a preventative measure and include cleansers,
make-up removers and other similar products that can help prevent acne. Whilst many sufferers use these products there are even more people who just want to keep their skin clean and conditioned.Some of these products are designed to act like an acne skin care product and act against the causes of this complaint. They work by limiting the production of sebum/oil and prevent clogging of skin pores. These products prevent the oil from getting trapped in pores and can hamper the growth of bacteria, this can lead to the bad skin condition.Exfoliation skin peels have proved quite effective as a skin care treatment and at controlling the problem. There are now more and more of these types of products available over the counter. This type of peel helps reduce the chance of oil clogging up the pores as well as removing other skin impurities; this can reduce the bacterium growth on your skin.

Many other acne skin care products have become available over the counter and
on the internet; they don't usually require a prescription. Products that contain the chemical benzoyl peroxide and the naturally occurring salicylic acid are used in vanishing creams. They work by removing the excess oil from the skin and halt the growth of acne.

Generally it is best to start using this type of product with only a small amount of
benzoyl peroxide; in fact no more than 5.5 percent is recommended just to see how the skin reacts. There are alternatives to this including products which contain alpha hydroxy acid. It might just be a case of trial and error, if nothing seems to work speak to your dermatologist for any advice or try a different acne skin care product.

There are benefits of seeing your doctor or dermatologist, they can prescribe you
with a prescription for treatments not available over the counter, for example a course of antibiotics. Under certain circumstances, having the infected material removed from the pores under a local anesthetic may be suggested by your dermatologist. This is something you should never attempt yourself.

Your doctor may even suggest a course of hormone therapy as a skin care
treatment. Hormone changes are sometimes responsible for acne and can be very effective when used under prescription. The end result is dealing with this skin complaint is not the problem it once was, there are now a huge range of products specifically formulated for the task. This means that a sufferer does not have to put up with this condition anymore.
