A Chief Cause Of Unhappiness Is What I Call Mental Movies. Mental Movies Are A Misuse Of The Imagination. You Know How It Goes. You Have A Painful Experience With Someone, Then Run It Over And Over In Your Mind. You Visualize What You Said, What He Did, How You Both Felt.

Be Very Careful That You Do Not Unconsciously Assume That Nervous Tension Is Power. This Is Vital. Watch Yourself The Next Time You Work Toward Some Goal.

They Are Thieves Of Genuine Powers. As Always, Your Awareness Of Their Thievery Is Your First Fine Step Toward Casting Them Out.
