I have always considered myself blessed to have been propelled into what most would consider a successful career and life as a very young man. Having my professional practice focused on both acupuncture and chiropractic, my personal practice became very successful shortly after I began my career. I completely credit the following list of laws as the ultimate success principles that have guided my success. I would read and focus on these laws daily and weekly. The more often you read them, the more secrets are revealed. What you will take away from these laws the first time you read them is nothing compared to what you will experience after you have read them 50 times. It is worth the time and effort to focus on these simple words.
I learned most of these laws in China as a student of acupuncture and martial arts in the early 1970s on multiple trips to Hong Kong and later to the People’s Republic of China. The others I learned from my many mentors, including Dr. Richard Busch, founder and publisher of The American Chiropractor magazine (TAC). It is a great honor to share these extremely important laws of life with the readers of TAC in 2018, which marks the fortieth anniversary of The American Chiropractor magazine.
Post these laws in a conspicuous place and read just one or two of them each morning. At least once a week, focus on each of these laws by reading each one in detail and thinking of the impact of the law. Make these laws an integral part of your life and know them by memory. By do-

ing this, you will be met with incredible rewards; ignoring this advice may be one of the most foolish things you have ever done. Your personal development, practice, and life adventures will be forever positively altered by knowing and using these laws.
Lao Tzu said, “A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” Best wishes on your life journey. You’ve taken the first step.
THE LAW OF CREATION: Whatever we think about and focus on grows into reality. We create the situations we think about throughout the day. Think you will succeed, and then you will. Think you will fail, and then you will do that instead. Think you are old, and then others will perceive you that way. The same is true for youthfulness.
THE LAW OF ATTRACTION: We attract people, places, things, and circumstances into our lives in direct proportion to our wants, needs, and desires. People and situations come into our lives not by accident but by our creation of the need.
THE LAW OF CONTROLLING YOUR OWN LIFE: If we are not specifically controlling our own lives and creating the circumstances necessary to meet our desires, we will become an instrument for others who do control their own lives. In essence, others will use us to meet their mission and destiny.
THE LAW OF RELAXATION: With physical laws, the harder we work, then more is accomplished. With mental laws, the more we relax, believe, and expect to succeed with ease and confidence, then the better the results.
THE LAW OF RECIPROCITY: whatever we see in the universe sees us. Whatever attitude, feelings, thoughts, and desires we put out, regardless of if they are negative or positive, will always return to us.
THE LAW OF THE UNIVERSE (KARMA) : Like the law of reciprocity, which deals with mental factors, the law of karma deals with physical manifestations. This law may affect our personal belongings, physical health, and financial status. This law works negatively or positively depending on what we put out into the universe.
THE LAW OF RETURN: Our rewards in life are in direct harmony with the value of our products, services, or ideas.
THE LAW OF SUBSTITUTION: Consciously substitute all negative thoughts with positive ones immediately upon experiencing the negative thought. We can only experience one thought at any given time. By substituting a positive thought for a negative one, only the positive will reach the subconscious.
THE LAW OF BELIEF: Whatever we believe with strong feelings becomes our reality. We are not limited by what we think we can do but by what we think we can’t. Self-limitations are not based upon reality; they are based on negative belief systems.
THE LAW OF PRESENT-TIME CONSCIOUSNESS: It is imperative that we live in the present as opposed to “tomorrow” or in the past. Preparing for tomorrow with righteous living and positive thoughts prepares us for what we will manifest. However, it is what we do today—right now (present-time consciousness)— that is important to achieve the rewards of life.
THE LAW OF PERSONAL GROWTH: “To become, act, and feel as if.” To become a successful practitioner, business person, parent, sports player, etc., act and feel as if you are already successful. The human spirit will act upon what it is given.
THE LAW OF EXPECTATION: We must know what it is that we want to accomplish or obtain before
the universe can manifest our desires. Most people don’t know what they want due to unclear thinking and foggy mental vision.
THE LAW OF CLARITY: The clarity of our mind and thoughts are in direct proportion to the physical clutter in our lives. Take a look around you.
THE LAW OF CAUSE AND EFFECT: Within universal law, our thoughts are the cause and the conditions (good or bad) are the effects. The outcome is dependent on our creation of thought.
THE LAW OF PERSEVERANCE: People who succeed never stop trying. People who stop trying never succeed.
THE LAW OF FORGIVENESS: Forgiving all others is a necessary and effective purgative for a successful life. The law doesn’t demand that we like the other person or situation. We just have to forgive them and let go of the mental chains that entrap us.
