BELIEVE YOU CANSUCCEED

Is achievement or success one of the goals of your life?

Then believe that you can achieve it. God gave you the abilities that you need!

When you believe, the how-to-do-it will follow.

Belief in successis required to succeed.

Think victory andsucceed.

THINK BIG

How big we thinkdetermines the size of our accomplishments.

You are biggerthan you think you are. Never sell yourself short.

Speak and thinkpositive things whenever possible.

See what canbe---not what can’t be.

BUILD CONFIDENCEAND DESTROY FEAR

Recognize fear toconquer it.

Confidence isacquired through action and results.

The best way toget over a fear of water is to jump in and start swimming.

Isolate your fearand take appropriate action.

Buckle down. Analyze all factors. Make sure you are right. Make a decision and stick with it.

Make changes.Trust you own judgment. Remember others are human just like you.

Be enthusiastic.

YOU ARE WHAT YOUTHINK YOU ARE

Some people getrespect.  Somepeople do not get respect. Why?

Thinking andself-respect is the answer. Think and act important. How you think determines how you act.

Self respect or noself respect shows through in everything we do.

Build a good imagethrough good actions. Your reputation is your most important asset.

Remember the oldrazor blade commercial? “Look sharp, feel sharp, be sharp!”

Think that the jobyou do is important. It is.  Everyonein an organization must do a good job to help the organization be successful.

USE GOALS TO HELPYOU GROW

All deliberatesuccess is first visualized by someone. There is no success if there is no goal for success.

A goal is morethan a dream.  Itis a plan to be acted on. Make some plans and take the necessary actions.

Get a clear fix onwhere you want to go. Then establish it as a goal.

The importantthing is where you want to be not where you have been.

IN SUMMARY....

Believe you cansucceed.

Think big.

Build confidenceand destroy fear.

You are what youthink you are.

Use goals to helpyou grow.
