Today’s reading was edited and adapted from How to Lick Fear by David V. Bush, published in 1924.

The common saying that you are making a mountain out of a molehill, contains more truth than poetry. When your imagination takes wings, and fancy runs wild, you can picture and anticipate more trouble in five minutes than you could actually bring upon yourself in a lifetime. Imagination can do almost anything: It can give us the right mental attitude for success, health, and happiness; but uncontrolled, it can build structures of doubt, sorrow, ill-health, and many a trouble.

Most of the troubles we have are imagined. Our worst troubles never come. Whether our troubles are real or imaginary, there is one way to meet them and rise superior to them — one easy, sure way to knock every fear in the head and throw it out of your mental picture gallery. It is so simple that you will wonder why the human family has not been taught it from infancy.
