How to Become a Master of Money - Florence Scovel Shinn




Editor's Note:  The following is an excerpt from The Game of Life and How to Play It by Florence Scovel Shinn.



How to Make a Demonstration
I have often been asked just how to make a demonstration.


Get a Definite Lead
I reply: "Speak the word and then do not do anything until you get a definite lead." Demand the lead, saying, "Infinite Spirit, reveal to me the way, let me know if there is anything for me to do."


The Answer Will Come Through Intuition
The answer will come through intuition (or hunch); a chance remark from someone, or a passage in a book, etc., etc. The answers are sometimes quite startling in their exactness. For example: A woman desired a large sum of money. She spoke the words: "Infinite Spirit, open the way for my immediate supply, let all that is mine by divine right now reach me, in great avalanches of abundance." Then she added: "Give me a definite lead, let me know if there is anything for me to do."

The thought came quickly, "Give a certain friend" (who had helped her spiritually) "a hundred dollars." She told her friend, who said, "Wait and get another lead, before giving it." So she waited, and that day met a woman who said to her, "I gave someone a dollar today; it was just as much for me, as it would be for you to give someone a hundred."

This was indeed an unmistakable lead, so she knew she was right in giving the hundred dollars. It was a gift which proved a great investment, for shortly after that, a large sum of money came to her in a remarkable way.


Giving Opens the Way for Receiving
Giving opens the way for receiving. In order to create activity in finances, one should give. Tithing or giving one-tenth of one's income, is an old Jewish custom, and is sure to bring increase. Many of the richest men in this country have been tithers, and I have never known it to fail as an investment.


Bills Should Be Paid Cheerfully
The tenth-part goes forth and returns blessed and multiplied. But the gift or tithe must be given with love and cheerfulness, for "God loveth a cheerful giver" (2 Corinthians 9:7). Bills should be paid cheerfully; all money should be sent forth fearlessly and with a blessing.


Become a Master of Money
This attitude of mind makes man master of money. It is his to obey, and his spoken word then opens vast reservoirs of wealth.
