Mastery of Fate

By: Christian Larson

Narrated by: John Marino

What man is, and what man does, determines in what conditions, circumstances, and environments he shall be placed. And since man can change both himself and his actions, he can determine what his fate is to be.

To change himself, man must change his thought, because man is as he thinks; and to change his actions, he must change the purpose of his life, because every action is consciously or unconsciously inspired by the purpose held in view. To change his thought, man must be able to determine what impressions are to form in his mind, because every thought is created in the likeness of a mental impression.

To choose his own mental impressions, man must learn to govern the objective senses, and must acquire the art of original thought. Everything that enters the mind through the physical senses will produce impressions upon the mind, unless prevented by original thought. These impressions will be direct reflections of the environment from whence they came; and since thoughts will be created in the exact likeness of these impressions, so long as man permits environment to impress the mind, his thoughts will be exactly like his environment: And since man becomes like the thoughts he thinks, he will also become like his environment.

Better than The Secret

Simply put, Mastery Of Fate is an elaborate explanation of the idea that we become what we think about.
Oh, it could also be an elaborate and INDIRECT explanation of the phrase IN the first two Terminator movies.
You know, the thing about fate being what me make for ourselves.
