A

“I bargained with Life for a penny,
And Life would pay no more,
However I begged at evening
When I counted my scanty store.

For Life is a just employer,
He gives you what you ask,
But once you have set the wages,
Why, you must bear the task.

I worked for a menial’s hire,
Only to learn, dismayed,
That any wage I had asked of Life,
Life would have willingly paid.”

“If I think I am beaten I am,
if I think I dare not, I don’t
If I like to win, but think I can’t,
It is almost certain I won’t.

If I think I’ll lose, I’m lost
For out of the world we find,
Success begins with a fellow’s will-
It’s all in the state of mind.

If I think I am outclassed, I am,
I’ve got to think high to rise,
I’ve got to be sure of myself before
I can ever be sure of a prize.

Life’s battles don’t always go
To the stronger of faster man,
But soon or late the man who wins
Is the man WHO THINKS HE CAN!”

Q

SELF-CONFIDENCE FORMULA

A

SELF-CONFIDENCE FORMULA
Everybody recognizes my outstanding level of self-confidence, cool, calm and collectedness.

Everybody recognizes and respects my level of Self-control and Self-discipline.

1) I know I am achieving the object of my Definite Purpose in life, therefore I DEMAND of myself persistent, continuous action toward its attainment, and I here and now promise to render such action.
2) I realize the dominating thoughts of my mind will eventually reproduce themselves in outward, physical reality, therefore, I will concentrate my thoughts for thirty minutes daily upon the task of thinking of the person I intend to become, thereby creating in my mind a clear mental picture of that person.
3) I know through the principle of Auto-Suggestion, any desire that I persistently hold in my mind will eventually seek expression through some practical means of attaining the object back of it, therefore I will devote ten minutes daily to demanding of myself the development of SELF-CONFIDENCE.
4) I will engage in no transaction which does not benefit all whom it affects. I will succeed by attracting to myself the forces I wish to use, and the cooperation of other people. I will induce others to serve me, because of my willingness to serve others. I will eliminate hatred, envy, jealousy, selfishness, and cynicism, by developing love for all humanity.
I will cause others to believe in me, because I will believe in them, and in myself.
