When we recognize and acknowledge that there is a Master Plan of the universe - (call it what you will - I call it God) - one can get an immediate 'advantage' in his/her pursuit of the greatness of life.
We can see the great Master Plan everywhere we look;
The seasons - (A time for preparing the soil for planting; A time for planting; A time for harvesting; and a time for the soil to rest and restore itself.
Pretty basic, until you realize that the entire universe is set around a 'plan';
The springtime of youth - when the seeds of maturity and morality are planted; A time of summer - when we grow and mature - love, marry and raise our families; A time of fall - when we enjoy what we have built - and enhance the intellectual growth that we didn't have time to nature in our 'summer'; And then, winter, when we seek the meaning of life - and prepare for the mystic journey into the unknown.
From the smallest - to the greatest - there is a pattern to all of life.
This Cosmic plan includes all of creation - and there are definite principles:
- Order
- Harmony
- Intelligence
- Growth
- Attraction
- Balance
To look first at 'Order' - Who could dispute that there is a great order in the universe? The ebb and flow of tides; the earth's rotation; the perfect order of the planetary bodies.
Then, we look at 'Harmony' - Pythagoras said that the universe operates under a mathematical system that is so harmonious and scientifically fixed as the laws governing music.
Friends, I could go on and on - e.g. Confucius saying that there is an imperative need for the observance of the laws of order, harmony, and balance; Kant saying that there is a moral law within that is as fixed as the laws that govern the stars in the heaven; One of the great tenets of Oriental philosophy is the law of equilibrium or balance - Mind must balance the body; work must balance the play; sleep and rest must balance work;; the inner must balance the outer.
However, most of us are geared to action - not philosophy. I would invite you to look and explore -

Millicent Metz is an individual who believes passionately in the tremendous power of the mind. Nothing esoteric, but just an absolute conviction in the old adages, such as:
`Your Self-Image is your key to a better life`, - -`It is up to you to acquire the habit of Happiness`, And so forth. It is one thing to give `lip service` to these beliefs, and quite another to believe passionately and to live your life accordingly. Can we really accept the idea that there is, indeed, a Law of Attraction? The problem is that most of us need outside help or mentoring to get to the point where we can really `call the shots` Is there really such a thing as The Secret?
