The starting point of great success in your life begins, in the simplest terms, when you discipline yourself to think and talk about only the things you want and refuse to think and talk about anything you don't want.

Think continally about what you want, not about the things you fear.

If you expect to be successful, you will eventually be successful. If you expect to be happy and popular, you will be happy and popular. If you expect to be healthy and prosperous, that is what will happen... Always think and talk positively about the future. Start every morning by saying: 'I believe something wonderful is going to happen to me today.' Then, throughout the day, expect the best.

You perform as well as you believe yourself capable of performing. You are as effective as you believe yourself to be in whatever you do. You can never be better or different on the outside than you believe yourself to be on the inside.

Never say anything about yourself you do not want to come true.

What is the most important and valuable work that you do, in any field or profession? It's thinking!

All change is from the inner to the outer. All change begins in the self-concept. You must become the person you want to be on the inside before you see the appearance of this person on the outside.

You can never rise any higher than your expectations of yourself. Since they are completely under your control, be sure that your expectations are consistent with what you want to see happen. Always expect the best of yourself.

As you begin to see yourself and think about yourself as more competent and confident, your behavior becomes more focused and effective.

No person or situation can make you fed anything-it is only the way you think about a situation that makes you feel the way you do.

The very act of visualizing yourself performing at your best prior to any event or activity will improve your performance.

This is the basic principle that underlies most religion, psychology, philosophy, and metaphysics. This law says, "Whatever you believe, with conviction, becomes your reality.
