Enclosed herewith I hand you Part Four. This part will show you
why what you think, or do, or feel, is an indication of what you
are.

Thought is energy and energy is power, and it is because all the
religions, sciences and philosophies with which the world has
heretofore been familiar have been based upon the manifestation
of this energy instead of the energy itself, that the world has
been limited to effects, while causes have been ignored or
misunderstood.

You have found that the Individual may act on the Universal, and
that the result of this action and interaction is cause and
effect. Thought, therefore, is the cause, and the experiences
with which you meet in life are the effect.

Eliminate, therefore, any possible tendency to complain of
conditions as they have been, or as they are, because it rests
with you to change them and make them what you would like them
to be.

Our difficulties are largely due to confused ideas and
ignorance of our true interests. The great task is to discover the laws
of nature to which we are to adjust ourselves. Clear thinking and
moral insight are, therefore, of incalculable value. All
processes, even those of thought, rest on solid foundations.

It is my privilege to enclose herewith Part One of The Master
Key System. Would you bring into your life more power? Get the
power consciousness. More health? Get the health consciousness.
More happiness? Get the happiness consciousness. Live the
spirit of these things until they become yours by right. It will
then become impossible to keep them from you. The things of the
world are fluid to a power within man by which he rules them.

Nature compels us all to move through life. We could not remain stationary however much we wished. Every right-thinking person wants not merely to move through life like a sound-producing, perambulating plant, but to develop - to improve - and to continue the development mentally to the close of physical life.

Some men seem to attract success, power, wealth, attainment, with very little conscious effort; others conquer with great difficulty; still others fail altogether to reach their ambitions, desires and ideals. Why is this so? Why should some men realize their ambitions easily, others with difficulty, and still others not at all? The cause cannot be physical, else the most perfect men, physically, would be the most successful. The difference, therefore, must be mental - must be in the mind; hence mind must be the creative force, must constitute the sole difference between men. It is mind, therefore, which overcomes environment and every other obstacle in the path of men.
