A famous trapeze artist was instructing his students how to perform on the trapeze high bar. Finally, having given full explanation and instructions in this skill, he told them to demonstrate their ability. One student, looking up at the insecure perch upon which he must perform, was suddenly filled with fear. He froze completely. He has a terrifying vision of himself falling to the ground. He couldnt move a muscle, so deep was his fright. I cant do it! he gasped. The instructor put his arm around the boys shoulder and said, Son, you can do it, and I will tell you how. Then he made a statement which is of inestimable importance. He said, Throw your heart over the bar and your body will follow. Heart is the symbol of creative activity. Fire the heart with where you want to go and what you want to be. Get it so deeply fixed in your subconscious that you will not take no for an answer, then your entire personality will follow where your heart leads. “Throw your heart over the bar” means to throw your faith over your difficulty, throw your affirmation over every barrier, throw your visualization over your obstacles. In other words, throw the spiritual essence of you over the bar and your material self will follow in the victory groove thus pioneered by your faith-inspired mind. Expect the best, not the worst, and you will attain your heart’s desire. It is what is in the heart of you, either good or bad, strong or weak, that finally comes to you. Emerson said, “Beware of what you want for you will get it.” Dr. Norman Vincent Peala, The Power of Positive Thinking
