As a Man Thinketh (1914)

William Jones is capable enough, but he allows himself to be imposed upon by everybody he knows. He visits a fortuneteller who tells him that he has "an iron will" and is "destined to govern." Mr. Jones goes home and subdues his domineering wife. At the office he shows his fellow clerks their proper places, strikes the boss for a raise, and is promised the advance if he succeeds in getting a business contract, which has been returned, signed by the refusing party. He takes the papers and within the hour is back with the signature. The raise materializes, he is made head clerk, and after that he goes home every night to a wife who thoroughly respects him.
