The Scroll Marked Eight: Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold

Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold.
A mulberry leaf touched with the genius of man becomes silk.
A field of clay touched with the genius of man becomes a castle.
If it is possible for leaves and clay and wood and hair to have their value multiplied a hundredfold by man, why can't I!


Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold.
I am liken to a grain of wheat which faces one of two futures. The wheat can be placed in a sack until it is feed to swine. Or it can be placed in the earth and allowed to grow. It will produce a thousand grains from the single one.
I am liken to a grain of wheat with one difference. The wheat cannot choose whether it be fed to swine, ground for bread, or planted to multiply. I have a choice and I will not let my life be wasted. I will never let it be destroyed by the rocks of failure and despair.
Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold.
Like the wheat grain which will sprout and blossom only if it is nurtured with rain and sun and warm winds, I also must nurture my body and mind to fulfill my dreams. But to grow to full stature the wheat must wait on the whims of nature. I need not wait , for I have the power to choose my own destiny.
Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold.
And how will I accomplish this? First I will set goals for the day, the week, the year, and my whole life. Just as the rain must fall before the wheat will crack its shell and sprout, so must I have objectives before my life will blossom. I will never concern that my goals are too high. If I aim my spear at the moon, I may only strike an eagle. But it is better than to aim my spear at eagle, finally only strike a rock.
Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold.
The height of my goals will not hold me in awe. If I stumble I will rise. All men must stumble often before they reach the goal. Only a worm is free from the worry of stumbling. I am not a worm. I am not an onion plant. I am not a sheep. I am a man. Let others build a cave with their clay. I will build a castle with mine.
Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold.
Today I will surpass every action which I performed yesterday. I will climb today's mountain to the utmost of my ability. Tomorrow I will climb higher. To surpass others is unimportant; I want to surpass myself.


Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold.
I will never aim too low.
I will do the work that a failure will not do.
I will always raise my goals as soon as they are attained.
I will always strive to make the next hour better than this one.
Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold.
