1. Believe You can Succeed and You Will
Success means many wonderful, positive things.
Believe, really believe you can move a mountain and you can. Not many people believe that they can move mountains. So, as a result, not many people do. You can’t wish away a mountain… But you can move a mountain with belief. You can win success by believing you can succeed.
Belief, strong belief, triggers the mind to figuring ways and means and how-to. Believe, really believe, you can succeed and you will.
Think doubt and fail. Think victory and succeed.
A person is a product of his own thoughts. Believe big and grow big.
Your mind is a “thought factory”. It’s a busy factory, producing countless thoughts in one day. => under the charge of two foremen, – Mr. Triumph and other Mr Defeat. Both of them are intensely obedient.
How to develop the power of belief
1. Think success, don’t think failure. “I’ll win” not “I’;; probably lose” – “I’m equal to the best” not “I’m out-classed”
2. Remind yourself regularly that you are better than you think you are. Successful people are not supermen; they are just ordinary folks who have developed belief in them-selves and what they do. Never – yes, never-sell yourself short.
3. Believe big. The size of your success is determined by the size of your belief. Big ideas and big plans are often easier – certainly no more difficult, than small ideas and small plans.
2. Cure yourself of Excusitis, The Failure Disease
Unsuccessful people suffer a mind-deadening thought disease – EXCUSITIS. Every failure has this disease in its advanced form. And most “average” persons have at least a mild case of it.
=> Health, Intelligence, Age (too old or too young), luck
3. Build Confidence and Destroy Fear
It’s only your imagination, Don’t worry. There’s nothing to be afraid of. Fear is real. And we must recognize it exists before we can conquer it. Most fear today is psychological. Worry, tension, embarrassment, panic all stem from mismanaged, negative imagination. But simply knowing the breading ground of fear doesn’t cure fear.
Action cure fear. Indecision, postponement, on the other hand, fertilize fear.
