The Law of Transmutation
The following excerpts are from The Game of Life and How to Play It by Florence Scovel Shinn. Any emphasis is original.
[T]he great law of transmutation [is] founded on nonresistance. Through [your] spoken word, every failure [can be] transmuted into success.
If [you] have a failure … baptize it success, in the name of [all the holy and righteous prophets, in the Name of Jesus, in the Name of Allah.]…
[You cannot resist] the situation … seeing two powers instead of one. [You must bless the individual and baptize] the situation “Success!…”
As there is only one power, God, [you must believe that the situation is] for [your] good and [your] prosperity…. [You must believe that] every man is a golden link in the chain of [your] good, for all men are God in manifestation, awaiting the opportunity given by man, himself, to serve the divine plan of his life.
Bless your enemy and you rob him of his ammunition. His arrows will be transmuted into blessings. (p. 32)
