PROSPERITY – How to Attract It - Chapter 2. THE LAW OF ATTRACTION - Orison Swett Marden - HQ Full Book.In this pivotal chapter of Prosperity – How to Attract It, Orison Swett Marden eloquently explores the foundational principle behind personal success and abundance: the Law of Attraction. He asserts that the universe is governed by immutable laws, and among them, the law that "like attracts like" is a central mechanism by which individuals attract prosperity or poverty, success or failure, joy or despair. According to Marden, the Law of Attraction is not just a metaphysical concept but a demonstrable principle woven into the fabric of existence. The chapter begins with a poetic invocation by John Burroughs, who beautifully articulates the idea that "my own shall come to me." This serves as a thematic overture, emphasizing the natural magnetism between our inner convictions and our external realities. Marden builds on this by stating that everything we experience is, in some way, a response to our dominant thoughts, emotions, and mental attitudes. The universe, he suggests, is an abundant, limitless storehouse of riches—both material and immaterial—available to anyone who aligns themselves with its laws. Marden makes a bold and inspiring claim: it was never intended that human beings live in lack or want. He argues that the cosmos is abundant by nature, filled with opportunities, blessings, and resources waiting to be drawn toward those who are in harmony with its principles. This abundance, however, is not accessed through brute strength or sheer willpower. Rather, it is attracted by the invisible but powerful force of mental affinity. In essence, the mind must become a magnet, attuned to the things it desires. This mental magnetism is not arbitrary or whimsical. It is governed by the Law of Attraction, which ensures that the energy we emit in thought becomes the energy we attract in experience. Just as a magnet attracts metal but not wood, our thoughts attract their own kind. Positive thoughts attract positive outcomes; negative thoughts bring negative results. Marden underscores that we do not draw to ourselves what we merely wish for—but what we habitually think about, believe in, and emotionally invest in. The chapter provides practical examples, including a tragic story of a young girl who died of fright at a dentist's office. Marden uses this anecdote to illustrate that even though she did not understand the Law of Attraction, it was nonetheless working in her life. Her overwhelming fear became a magnet that drew the very thing she dreaded. In the same way, many people attract financial hardship, illness, and failure because their minds are steeped in thoughts of fear, lack, and worry. One of the most empowering insights Marden offers is the idea that we can consciously choose the kind of mental magnet we wish to be. By doing so, we can attract the circumstances, people, and opportunities that align with our dominant mental atmosphere. He notes that even bad or immoral individuals often become financially successful—not because of their character, but because they understand and apply the principles of attraction better than many virtuous people do. The law is neutral; it rewards alignment, not morality. Marden also addresses a common misconception: that prosperity is a matter of luck or fate. He dismantles this belief, insisting that success is not mysterious or accidental—it is systematic and law-governed. The same way one would prepare for a career in medicine or law, one must prepare mentally and emotionally for a life of prosperity. It is a discipline, a mental craft that must be learned, practiced, and refined. Throughout the chapter, Marden returns to a vital theme: the mind is the builder. Whatever image dominates our mental vision will, through the processes of life, be translated into experience. He cautions readers to avoid thinking obsessively about the things they fear or hate, for by doing so, they increase their vibrational affinity with those very things. The better approach is to train the mind to dwell only on images of success, prosperity, health, and happiness. Visualization, affirmation, and persistent belief are key practices for reorienting the mind toward constructive attraction. He also warns against the destructive habit of worry. Worry is not only futile but actively harmful, as it attracts the very misfortunes we hope to avoid. Marden suggests that if people could see the invisible forces they summon with each thought—forces that either build or destroy—they would be far more careful in curating their mental landscape. In discussing the universality of the law, Marden states that everyone uses the Law of Attraction, whether consciously or not. A child, a business magnate, a pauper—they are all drawing to themselves the conditions that correspond to their mental state. The difference lies in intentionality. Those who thrive do so by ...
