What Is Faith?
Think and Grow Rich - Napoleon Hill
Chapter 3 Faith
In this chapter Napoleon defines faith as "the visualization of and belief in attainment of desire." It is said that faith is the second step toward riches. Faith is the only means by which man can harness and use the cosmic force of infinite intelligence.
Faith is the head chemistry of the mind. Also, faith when joined with the vibration of thought reaches the subconscious mind and is then translated into the spiritual equivalent which is then transmitted to infinite intelligence. Faith is one of the most powerful of the major positive emotions which has the ability to get a response from infinite intelligence.
Additionally, faith is psychic and relates to the spiritual side of man. When mixed with major positive emotions, it has the ability of opening a direct line of communication between the finite thinking mind of man and the infinite intelligence
Faith is said to be a state of mind which can be induced or created by means of repeated instructions or affirmations to the subconscious mind by means of the principle known as auto-suggestion and is the only known method of voluntary development of the emotion of faith.
Moreover, when the mind is controlled by positive emotions, it becomes a fertile ground for the state of mind known as faith. In this state, the mind easily passes instruction to the subconscious mind which it readily accepts and instantly acts upon.
Finally, faith is said to be the “eternal elixir” which has the ability to act upon the impulse of thought and can give it life and power. It is the beginning of all accumulation of riches. Faith is the basis of all miracles and mysteries which cannot be analyzed by the rules of science. It is an element, the “chemical” that has a direct communication with infinite intelligence when it is mixed with prayer. It is the only known antidote for failure.

Hi Nicola, I hope that things are going well for you.
Faith is what we need to empower us when we are not sure of the outcomes or journey that we are on.
From observation, faith is in abundance around WA and it is freely emboldened.
Take care and stay safe.

I really like the word faith “is the only known antidote for failure”.
Just my personal opinion, I do believe that faith affects our personal lives not only in business matters or financial success but more importantly about our future.
In these times of pandemic despite deaths, pains, and agonies, faith is the only stronghold of our souls hoping that everything will be fine.
God is the source of faith. Due to his LOVE and MERCY, he promised to end all our suffering.
He knows our hearts were broken and sicked that is why He set an appointed time to heal our wounds.
Yes, all we need now is faith.
Hope I help to ease a little bit of our burden.
Thanks.
Yes , God is the source of faith.
