PROSPERITY – How to Attract It - Chapter 4. ESTABLISHING THE CREATIVE CONSCIOUSNESS - Orison Swett Marden - HQ Full Book.In Chapter 4 of Prosperity – How to Attract It, titled “Establishing the Creative Consciousness,” Orison Swett Marden lays out a compelling argument that the foundation of all achievement begins not in action, resources, or effort—but in consciousness. He asserts that within every individual lies an immense reservoir of power and possibility. However, until we become fully conscious of these inner resources, they remain dormant, unused, and unrealized. Marden opens the chapter by emphasizing that awareness is the gateway to creation. Just as we cannot use a tool we're unaware we possess, we cannot access our infinite inner potential unless we recognize it. He powerfully states: “The consciousness of power creates power,” meaning that once we perceive ourselves as capable, we begin to manifest capability in the physical world. Whatever we vividly and persistently hold in our minds, we start to attract and create. The author then challenges one of the most common mindsets among those who feel stuck or unsuccessful: the consciousness of lack. He draws attention to the biblical lament of Job, “The thing which I feared is come upon me,” reframing it as a powerful psychological truth: “The thing which I was greatly conscious of is come upon me.” In other words, whether we dwell on fear, lack, failure—or abundance, victory, and success—what we consistently hold in our consciousness will shape our outer reality. Marden argues that failure is rarely due to a lack of talent or opportunity, but rather, a result of failing to hold the correct mental image. The individual who is perpetually afraid of failure is, in effect, planting the seed of failure into their consciousness. Likewise, those who succeed tend to hold a victorious consciousness, a firm belief in their capacity to succeed. They visualize their goals vividly and nurture an unwavering expectation of achievement. Through historical examples like Joan of Arc, who from childhood believed she was destined to save France, Marden illustrates the incredible power of an idea held deeply in one’s mind. Without consciously understanding the law of mental attraction, Joan’s life was directed by a belief so powerful it turned her into a national savior. Similarly, many prominent figures—artists, scientists, explorers, entrepreneurs—share the common trait of having a clear, unshakable vision of their goal and their ability to reach it. The author also discusses the dangers of a poverty consciousness. A mindset steeped in fear, lack, and scarcity attracts more of the same. People who constantly visualize struggle and limitation inadvertently block themselves from abundance. Marden stresses that this kind of thinking violates the natural law of attraction—you cannot attract wealth with a mindset rooted in poverty. You cannot manifest success with a failure consciousness. It’s not fate or external forces that hold us back—it is the inward pattern of our thoughts. He then presents a transformative idea: each person can develop any type of consciousness they choose. Just as a musician develops a musical consciousness or a doctor develops a medical one, anyone can nurture a success consciousness, a prosperity consciousness, or even a God consciousness. The key is to fix a vivid image of your goal in your mind and make it central in your thoughts, feelings, and actions. Begin with clarity of purpose, and then foster conviction—stronger even than willpower—that you can and will achieve your goal. Conviction, Marden argues, is often more powerful than effort. A person may try very hard to succeed, but if they don’t truly believe they can succeed, that disbelief will override their efforts. On the other hand, someone with deep conviction about their capability is almost unstoppable. The chapter is filled with inspiration for readers to reshape their mental blueprint and take ownership of their inner state. Marden also illustrates how, in moments of great need or danger, people suddenly tap into extraordinary strength or ability. He shares the story of a frail woman leaping over a high gate to escape a perceived threat. This surge of power came because, in that moment, she was forced into a consciousness of her hidden reserves—she didn’t question whether she could do it; she just did. However, after the danger passed, she reverted to her previous limitations. The message is clear: our power is always there, but we don’t consistently access it because we don’t believe in it on a daily basis. He reinforces this idea with real-life examples of paralyzed or weak individuals performing miraculous acts in emergencies, only to relapse afterward into helplessness. These feats are not miracles, he explains—they are the manifestation of a momentary consciousness of power. But unless we sustain ...
