Using The Law Of Success To Succeed In School

By Josie Uitendaal


"Success" is a concept not often associated with law. Success has too many variables. Success is dependent on luck or fate or conditions beyond control. Not so, says Paramahansa Yogananda. Success is as reliable as gravity for the individual who understands and applies the law.Given the same conditions, physical laws are considered universal and invariable. Everyone experiences the phenomenon's of gravity or motion or energy whether or not they understand the full functioning of the law. Mastery of the law however, knowing with complete certainty the means to realize a specific outcome, confers immense advantage.

Seek God first, writes Paramahansa Yogananda in his succinct (24 pages) "The Law of Success". Confirm contact, then align yourself with divine will. If it be divine will all things - wisdom, abundance, health - will be bestowed upon you. Your task in life is to discern and act in accordance with God's will. Doing so invariable leads to success.Paramahansa Yogananda, an Indian yogi, lived his last 30 years in the United States. He possessed an uncanny ability to adapt and merge the ancient principles of his profound Hindu faith with modern American Christianity. Exhibiting a quick wit and jubilant spirit he reconciled truths for countless seekers to achieve self-realization.Every person possesses and is wholly responsible for two powers: thought and will. Applying those powers correctly is the key to creating a fulfilling, successful life."Will power is the spring of all your actions." Action is the energizing of will and thought. You can control your destiny through your thoughts. As success must serve, that is advance life, you must discipline your habits of thought to constructive purposes. Ultimately your objective must be to tune your intentions and your thoughts to the will of God.

Planting the Seed.The farmer plants the seed of the crop he wishes to harvest. He does not plant corn seed to get a harvest of wheat. So, too, a person must plant the seeds of what he wishes to gain. This is where goal setting comes into the process. The person needs to decide what his goals are, and then create a plan for reaching those goals, so that he can plant the right seed for the desired harvest of success. A person wishing financial success must plant financial seeds, whether these be investments made or skills learned. The person must understand how the seeds being planted will grow to the desired harvest.

Succeed in School through Recitation.You don't have to be a know-it-all to be great at recitation during class. While a lot of people sound like they're just showing off when they stand up and speak in the middle of a lecture, that's just one way of reciting. One great way to recite and use the law of success quite subtly is to ask more questions, rather than be the first one to blurt out the correct answer in an attempt to aggrandize yourself. Show to your teachers that you are genuinely curious about the lesson, and that you trust them to teach you more. This will definitely get you on their good side, and when grading comes at the end of the year, they'll remember you as the highly inquisitive one.

Harvesting at the Right Time.The farmer needs to gather in the crop when the time is right. He cannot do it too early, or the crop will not be useful; he cannot do it too late, or the crop will destroy itself in the field. A person working towards success needs to realize when the opportunities arise so that the efforts planted can be realized at the right time. Hesitation can cause the opportunity to rot away; the attempt to reach the absolute maximum can cause the right time to slip by. Act when your subconscious says to act; by listening to the small voice within you, you will know when the harvest time has occurred. The farmer doesn't wait until the absolute peak ripeness occurs; he harvests the crop just before then, so that the ripeness will occur when the harvest is delivered. So, too, a person needs to act just before the maximum results, so that the results can mature during the act of harvesting. Particularly when it comes to investments, it is better to get 95% of the profit by acting early than to get 80% of the profit by acting too late.

The Most Subtle of the Laws.There are several laws of success, but the Law of the Farm is perhaps the most subtle. Just as a farmer gets better at raising crops as the years go by, so too a person gets better at using this law as he works it. Of all the laws, this one gets better the more you use it.Have you ever heard of The Secret and The Law Of Attraction? Most likely your answer would be Yes.

Your definite chief aim must be written down and committed to memory. It must be written down on a daily basis and placed where you can review it at least once a day. The mind works as such that we act in harmony with our dominating thoughts. The stronger we feel about those thoughts, the more our behavior lines up. It is amazing that when we think about not spilling the hot coffee, we always seem to get second degree burns. One key thing that must occur when you write down your goals and dreams is that it must be handwritten to achieve the desired effect. The effect of the written words and the mind is very powerful. Those words are committed to memory and recalled faster when a simple composition pad and pen is used.

The Law Of Obedience.The Law of Obedience says all the Laws work in their own ways and they can't be changed, regardless of what we want and believe in and notwithstanding whether we agree or not. When we are aware of the Laws and we respect them, then we can act in alignment with them. By doing so, we attract the things we desire into our lives. Be obedient to the laws of the universe. Work with them, don't try to change them. Instead, change yourself.

Your goals and dreams must be personal to you. I remember when I was in college I always wanted to own a home at the age of twenty seven years old. I did not achieve it till I was thirty years old; I was brutal on myself for those three years of not achieving my goal. I did more damage to the success of that goal in the way. I was unforgiving to myself in not reaching it earlier. You have a better chance of reaching your goals and dreams when your mind is right. When you are writing your goals and you feel good about them, then you are more likely to achieve them. If you don't have a good feeling as you write them, then you should review them and change them. The more your mind accepts your goals and dreams the better chance that you to achieve them.The daily regimen of reading your goals is the final ingredient in allowing your definite chief aim to saturate your subconscious mind. This acceptance of your chief aim by the subconscious mind will dominate your activities in your life. Napoleon Hill equates this level of achievement very similar to auto-suggestion. Napoleon Hill as it is written in "Think and Grow Rich" believes that "so as a man thinketh so is he".
