When learning to apply faith as a verb, or taking action toward your desire another concept is that the more true your desire is, the more your faith will have power. Let us face it. If you have absolute faith that you are going to look like a greek god in your physical appearance, that may be a good intent but may be so far from the truth that there is just no way you will get there. Now you could improve your physical appearance, certainly, but greek god status? If you have faith in something that is true, something that is very likely to occur because it is based in reality, then you have real power. When you apply to faith to something that is questionable or potentially even completely false, you may have a positive effect but it will be done with an extraordinary amount of effort. Pushing a rock up a hill so to speak.
The closer to a source of truth that your faith is focused, the more powerful your actions are.
So it pays well to really think about your objective and your goal. Is what you are trying to achieve, what you have hope that you can achieve a good thing? Is it something that can happen if you apply enough effort? Do you really believe it? This is the second principle. Action is the most important, but the second is action towards an objective that is actually true.
