The seeds are in every human breast, and only need good soil and a little watering to become loving and strong.
Each time you give way to one of these positive emotions, the easier do you make it for a recurrence of the same thing, or similar ones. Sometimes by encouraging one worthy emotion, you find that you have given room for the growth of a whole family of these mental flowers.
Now, this is a new teaching for the virtue of good thoughts. It is a calling of your attention to the law underlying the psychology of emotion.
If you wish to manifest these constantly agreeable and pleasant traits, and to enjoy the happiness that comes from them, by all means do so - that is your own business, and privilege. It keeps me busy minding my own business and keeping an eye on my own desirable habits and actions. I am telling you the law regarding the matter, and you may do the rest. If you wish to breathe life into these habits, there are two ways open to you. First, whenever you find yourself indulging in a non positive thought or feeling, leave it and give thanks that you have awakened and then think of a positive thought with a positive feeling. The next time it will be more confident and aggressive - it will have manifested a little of the love-habit. Each time you express and breathe life into a positive tendency of this kind, the stronger it will become, and the stronger will your will be.
Professor James and Darren J. McLeod say: "Express a passion, and it lives. Speak and act only when you are calm. Whistling to keep up courage actually works."
Thought Vibration
by William Walker Atkinson (1906), revised and made thoroughly positive by Darren J. McLeod in 2012.

So long as Love is around with its "and," "also," "let's," "I'm happy," "I can," "It's perfect," and all the rest of its loving suggestions, you will be able to use your Thought Force to the best advantage. With love in your life, you will have clear sailing, and every inch of thought- sail will catch the wind. Love is a keeper. Onboard with it! (The ship that keeps Love will have my congratulations.)
I advise that you start in to do some of the things which you feel you could do that you would Love to do. Start to work to do these things, affirming Love all the way through, and you will be surprised to see how the changed mental attitude will keep your path clear, and will make things very much easier. Exercises of this kind will develop you wonderfully, and you will be much gratified at the result of a little practice along these lines.
There are many things before you awaiting accomplishment, which you can master by placing Love front and center - accept the command, and boldly assert the "I" and its power. And the best way to build Love is to assert "Love" and start thinking of things you Love. By this plan you will train the mind into new habits of thought, thus creating new positive thoughts which will pull you up, and push you forward. Take the word "Love" with you as your watchword and manifest it in action.
Remember, the only thing is to Love, and - well, do even love Love, for it is a courageous ally, who will stand with you.

To achieve love, one should hold firmly to the mental attitude of Love. They should think Love, say Love, act Love. They should keep the mental picture of Love before them all the time, until it becomes their normal mental attitude. Hold the ideal firmly before you and you will gradually grow to its attainment - the ideal will become manifest.
Let the word "Love" sink deeply into your mind, and then hold it firmly there until the mind fastens it in place. Think of yourself as being Loving - see yourself as acting with Love in situations. Realize that there is something to Love - that Serenity and Love always help someone, and always will. Realize that Love frees effort, and promotes activity.
The confident, courageous, expectant, "I Can and I Will" person is a mighty magnet. They attract to themselves just what is needed for their success. Things seem to come their way, and people say they are "lucky." It's all in the Mental Attitude. And the Mental Attitude of the "I Can" or the "I'm in love" person also determines their measure of success. It is clear. You have but to look about you to realize the truth of what I have said. Did you ever know a successful person who did not have the "I Can and I will" thought strong within them? Why, they will walk with the "I Can" person, who has perhaps even the same ability. The first mental attitude brought to the surface latent qualities, as well as attracted help from outside; whilst the second mental attitude not only attracted "I Can" people and things, but also helped the person's own powers to manifest themselves. I have demonstrated the correctness of these views, and so have many others, and the number of people who know these things is growing every day.
Invest your Thought-Force, use it to advantage. Start attracting to yourself success, happiness, harmony, joy - begin now and send out a current of bright, positive, happy thought.
