Confident, honest, constructive basic feelings
which tap positive forces
that lead inevitably to the right actions and reactions
in any given situation.
These feelings are created and maintained by using will power to direct your thoughts. The ways and means you actually choose will be experimentally determined by observing which ones give you the right feelings, just as in learning other skills.
By developing positive thoughts and eliminating negative thoughts,
you be turning on an effective, natural stabilizer to help meet life’s storms. This PMA stabilizer will absorb the rough shocks and keep you on the course you choose but only if you use it.
