1. FUNCTIONS OF MAN ~ Several references from Mary Baker Eddy indicate that all functions are from Mind. Therefore, there is no action that can come from any other source to interfere with any good activity.


2. INTRODUCTION QUOTES: 

a. See Science and Health 151:17 
b. See Pg 129 & 131 ~ Treatment or Healing by True Prayer by Frederick L Rawson. 


3. TRAINING ~ In pilot training, they teach one that at the onset of any indication that there's trouble, that's when you take action, you don't wait even a second. Immediately your senses should be ready to go at any moment, because one moment can make the difference of life or death. Well, we have to think about the same way about our consciousness at the onset of any suggestion of something that is chaotic, discordant, anything unlike God that's when we take action to deny that it can have any power and then explain the reason why, which is that God is all Good, God is perfect, and there is no other power.


4.  MODELS of THOUGHT ~ Mary Baker Eddy makes it plain that we need to always have in therefore thought of consciousness the perfect model. And that's what we want to be continuously looking at. No matter what we are doing, anything at all that we're doing, we want to know what we're doing, we want to have a model of perfection there, and we want to be constantly referring to it. Just like if we were a painter or a sculpturist or an architect or whatever, there's a model th...at we should have and we want to constantly refer to it.


5. VISION, INTERFERENCE, PERFECTION 
We want our focus to not be influenced by what comes our way, but we want our focus to be constant on the model of thought that we should be having. In the letter that Mary Baker Eddy wrote to one of her students, which is under the title of Vision, and that's in the Mary Baker Eddy Index on the website mbeinstitute.org. She states or she asks the question to her student, are you able to focus no matter what comes your way? That's what we need to remember. No matter what comes our way. We need to have that focus on the perfect model of thought.
