People who ask condently get more than those who are
hesitant and uncertain. When you've gured out what you
want to ask for, do it with certainty, boldness and
condence.

What others think about you is none of your business.

When you think you can't, revisit a previous triumph.

If you are going to be a winner, you have to acknowledge


the truthit is you who took the actions, thought the
thoughts, created the feelings, and made the choices that
got you to where you now are. It was you!

You don't have to get it


perfect, you just have to

Confidence

Self-esteem is made up primarily of two things: feeling


lovable and feeling capable.

Build your self-esteem by recalling all the ways you have


succeeded, and your brain will be lled with images of you
making your achievements happen again and again.

Greater self-esteem produces greater success, and greater


success produces more high self-esteem, so it keeps on
spiraling up.

When you have inspired thought, you have to trust it and


you have to act on it.

You either create or allow everything that happens to you.

Believing in yourself is a choice. Its an attitude you develop


over time.

Theres a four letter word you must use when you get
rejected.next.

If you are going to be successful in creating the life of your


dreams, you have rst have to believe what you want is
possible and you are capable of making it happen.

Don't worry about failures, worry about the chances you


miss when you don't even try.

Everything you want is out there waiting for you to ask.


Everything you want also wants you. But you have to take
action to get it.

If you love your work, if you enjoy it, you're already a success.

If you are going to be successful, you need to give up the


phrase, I can't and all of its cousins, such as I wish I
were able to.

Success

If you give your mind a $10,000 problem, it will come up with


a $10,000 solution. If you give your mind a $1 million
problem, it will come up with a $1 million solution.

If you can tune into your purpose and really align with it, set-
ting goals so that your vision is an expression of that
purpose, then life ows much more easily.

The longer you hang in there, the greater the chance that
something will happen in your favor. No matter how hard it
seems, the longer you persist, the more likely your success.

Vague goals produce vague results.

Success

Good or bad, habits always deliver results.

There's a secret I've learned that works quite well at helping you
to achieve what you want: Decide what you want.

Gratitude is the single most important ingredient to living a


successful and fullled life.

If you are clear about your goals and take several steps in the
right direction everyday, eventually you will succeed. So decide
what it is you want, write it down, review it constantly, and each
day do something that moves you toward those goals.

Our job is not to gure out the 'how'. The 'how' will show
up out of the commitment and believe in the 'what.

History has demonstrated that the most notable winners


usually encountered heartbreaking obstacles before they
triumphed.

Trust your gut feeling about things, listen to what others


are saying, and look at the results of your actions. Once
you know the truth, you can set about taking action to
improve. Everyone will be better for it.

No one becomes an expert in a new career overnight,


even if you are coming from another career where you
were established and experienced.

Everything you want is on the other side of fear.

People should live full lives and not settle for


anything less.

Personal Responsibility

There is no right reaction. There is only your reaction.

You only have control over three things in your life, the
thoughts you think, the images you visualise, and the
actions you take.

You cant hire someone else to do your


pushups for you.

It is a universal principle that you get more of what you


think about, talk about, and feel strongly about.

Blame is a waste of time.


No matter how much fault
you nd with another, and
regardless of how much
you blame him, it will not

Personal Responsibility

You and you alone are responsible for maintaining


your energy. Give up blaming, complaining and excuse
making, and keep taking action in the direction of your
goals - however mundane or lofty they may be.

You can't heal what you don't acknowledge.

In order to get what you want, you must rst decide


what you want.

Practice random acts of kindness and senseless


acts of beauty.

your life and results.
Nothing less will do.
