You will find, perhaps, a series of deposit entries, reason
ably close together, an evidence of aspiration, backed by will
power.
Then, maybe, comes a gap. Your deposits stopped. A
withdrawal or two intervened.
Did your ardor cool? Did the promptings of pleasure
get the upper hand? Or did grim necessity befall and find you
prepared ?
+ + +
At any rate, the performances written indelibly in your
bank book prophesy, better than could any seer, the nature of
. . the performance of the future, UNLESS—
UNLESS you arouse yourself to the fact that an entirely
different program is necessary to bring you to cherished goals.
I
+ + +
j
Get cut your bank book and “tell your fortune.” Steady,’
unremitting deposits prophesy your success. Half-hearted at
tention to your bank account indicates the need of fresh resolve.
