I read Dale Carnegie to learn how to love others.
Not how to exploit them for my gain.
I needn't self help, because I do not wish
To go anywhere. I do not wish to improve upon my worldly status.
I do not wish to earn millions of dollars.
I wish, and it will happen,
For my work to earn me a living.
Do I know whether it will happen?
No.
Do I have faith that it will happen?
No.
Do I believe that it will happen?
No.
But, God is just. It doesn't matter what I believe.
If I worked, there will be payment.
If I crafted, and did so with skill,
He will cause me to find an audience.
Does my will have any effect on whether I manifest my destiny?
No.

The Law of Attraction is Black Magic.
It is the Mystery Occult.
It is the thing I hate most in life.
For, there are billions of uneducated people
Who have no hope of ever attaining even a tenth of what I have.
Not through all their effort,
Not through all their work,
Not through all their motivation and belief.
Yet, I, being gifted with intelligence,
Being gifted with time to hone my skill,
Being gifted to build up a repertoire of work
Can some day help them improve upon their lives.
And that good intention is my only magical incantation.
Built from the Proverb,
"He who devotes his work to the LORD, shall be established."
What devotion is there to the LORD?
To give, and to unburden the captives.

That is my Law of Attraction.
That if I improve my character---
Not learning how to pleasure the woman,
Learning how to charm the woman,
Learning how to trick her, and twirl her, and use psychological shadows---
And learn how to love the woman,
I shall find her for my heart is prepared for her love.
If I prepare myself for a lover,
I prepare myself for loves.
If I prepare myself to love others,
I prepare myself to love no matter if I find love or not.
For, homelessness after having created masterpieces like mine...
If I need to be homeless, then so be it.
For, I deserve my portion for working.
Even a slave gets fed so he can continue to work---
Yet, I am not, nor was I ever a slave.
I am a free man.
And as a free man, I ought to be unhindered
To eat and enjoy the bounty of my labor
Which is to find wisdom under the sun.
Should I give my wisdom to another,
That makes me his slave.
And I live in a land where such a thing is illegal.
