Today I promise myself To be so strong that nothing can disturb my peace of mind. To talk health, happiness and prosperity to every person I meet. To make all my friends feel that there is something in them. To look at the sunny side of everything and make my optimism come true. To think only of the best, to work only for the best, and to expect only the best. To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as I am about my own. To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future. To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature I meet a smile. To give so much time to the improvement of myself that I will have no time to criticize others. To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble. To think well of myself and to proclaim this fact to the world, not in loud words but in great deeds.

I will not feel disappointed when things seem disappointing. I will keep my eye single upon the same brilliant future regardless of circumstances, conditions or events. I will not lose heart when things go wrong. I will continue undisturbed in my original resolve to make all things go right. I will never be weakened when things are against me and I will grow stronger and stronger until all things will delight to be for me. I will nally have all the strength I may desire or need. I will always be strong and I will always be stronger. When I think of Myself, I think of my Larger Self, MY Immense Subconscious Self that is limitless in both Power and Possibility.

Page 10

I enjoy life and the many opportunities before me. I resist all negativity and draw close to things that strengthen and empower me. I think only on those things that promote a healthy mind and body. I take the time to invest in myself and my own happiness. I am human. It's okay to make mistakes. I don't have to be perfect. With each breath I take, I feel more focused than before. Peace and calm ll my mind. I am no afraid of how I am feeling. My feelings will not hurt me. A panic attack will not hurt me. When I am anxious, I will slow down and accept the way I am feeling. I no longer hurry through anxious situations or feelings. I am able to feel the fear and do it anyways. It is not my surroundings that make me feel the way I do, it is my own self talk that causes anxiety and panic. More than ever, I pay attention to the way I talk to myself. I no longer accept negative thinking as part of who I am. When I notice negative thoughts coming into my mind, I quickly let these thoughts go and replace them with truthful, positive thoughts.

Each time I panic and accept it, I am training myself to overcome it. I am proud of myself and my accomplishments, no matter how small. I am calm, positive, condent and self-assured. What I feel in my body when I am anxious are only normal feelings that are exaggerated. They do not mean anything else is wrong or that something bad is going to happen.
Page 11

My body is only blufng me when I am anxious or panicky. I will let go and not ght these feelings. Fighting anxiety and panic will only provoke more anxiety and panic. I no longer ght them but instead I welcome them. I am condent and I am getting stronger everyday. When I notice panic creeping in, I will make my body limp, accept and oat with it. I remind myself often that I am okay and doing well. I am healthy and strong. When I notice anxiety or panic, I immediately and deliberately focus all my attention on things outside of myself. I notice others and their own humanity and imperfections. I sympathize with others. I am not losing my mind, anxiety is a liar. That is a fact. I will not entertain "what if" thinking unless it is positive and encouraging for me. I will persevere and do whatever it takes to overcome this anxiety and panic. I take full responsibility for myself and my own recovery. I no longer avoid situations because of the way I am feeling. I have the power to control the thoughts I want to think. I think what I choose to think. If I don't like my thoughts, I can change them. I no longer choose thoughts that are negative or self-defeating. Instead I choose thoughts that are encouraging and helpful to me. I am no longer afraid of anxiety or panic. They will not hurt me. I will live the rest of my life as if I am a great person. I will live as if my dreams are possible and work each day to make them happen. It doesnt matter if I am ten years old or ninety years old, I can still live as if I am great. Any age is the right age to work on my dreams, and any place is the right place to make them come true. I dont know how much time I have left, but in whatever times remains, I will live as if I am great. I will be all that I can be and do all that I can do. I will nd an area of excellence that I can develop and give to the world. Planet earth will be a better place because I became great in one area. I can never fail as long as I develop the excellence that I have within. I will live the rest of my life as if I am a great person. I am what I think about all day long. Whoever I am, I am that person rst in my mind. Whatever I accomplish, I accomplish it rst in my mind. Whatever I become, I become it rst in my mind. The way I use my mind denes what it means to be me. At the most basic level, I am what I think about all day long. My mind is the only part of me that can change or that would ever be worth changing. If I want to change who I am, I must change the collection of thoughts that denes what it means to be me. What I think about is important, because it changes who I am. When I think positive thoughts, I become a more positive person. When I think empowering thoughts, I become a stronger person. When I think resourceful thoughts, my
Page 12

life moves in the direction of excellence, and I become a better person. When I think unlimited thoughts, I realize there is no limit to how good my life can become.

The sky is the limit to what I can have. I put all past mistakes and failures behind me; I delightfully look forward to a new day and new opportunities. I am what God says I am, I can do anything He says I can do. I choose to exercise patience as I go along my daily journey. I live one day at a time, I do not worry about the future. I commit adequate time daily to praying and studying the Word of God. I set realistic goals; I write them down and I put a plan of action in place to accomplish them. I choose to set a positive environment for my loved ones, circle of friends and other social environments in which I interact. I remove all limits off myself, for with God, I can excel to a new dimension in my life. I think positive thoughts at all times and I accept the condence I feel because of it. I love the balance I get from weekly fellowships with my friends. I am inspired because of the great strides Im making in my career. I devote time to myself daily because I know I deserve it. Because I take pride in what I put in my body, I engage in eating 3 healthy meals a day. God has not given me a spirit of fear, but of love and of a sound mind. I choose to operate in peace and love. I thrive off of my past failures for they inspire me to succeed. I immediately seize every opportunity and open door as they are presented to me. I refrain from putting unnecessary pressure on myself and do my best in everything I do. I value my relationships and I delight in reaching out a helping hand. I value difcult challenges for they provide opportunities to improve my weaknesses. I accept myself for who I am, and I also accept others for who they are.
Page 13

I make wise decisions that are benecial for me in the present day and in my future. I create balance in my life. I devote adequate time to myself, family, and my career and I keep them all within perspective. I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me.

I AM the manifest Perfection of being. I AM the illimitable Light of God made manifest everywhere. I AM the Light of the Holy of Holies. I AM a son of God. I AM the Light in the holy mountain of God.

I always do everything I need to do, when I need to do it. I never argue or let my emotions work against me. I have a good memory. I easily and automatically remember any name or anything that is important to me. I eat only what I should. I am a good listener. I hear everything that is said. I am attentive, interested, and aware of everything that is going on around me. I have the courage to state my opinions. I take responsibility for myself and everything I say and do. I never spend more than I earn. I am nancially responsible, both for my present and for my future. I set goals and I follow them. I set my sights, take the appropriate action, and achieve my goals. I spend time with my family and my loved ones. I enjoy sharing their lives with mine and my life with theirs.
Page 14

I do not worry. I am in control of my own thinking and I think only those thoughts which create and fulll the best in me. My mind is constantly in tune with the positive. It is bright, cheerful, enthusiastic, and full of good, positive thoughts and ideas. I am able to relax easily and comfortably in my body and in my mind. I am calm, condent, and self-assured. My mind is orderly and well-organized. I consciously choose what I think and I always choose those thoughts which are the most positive and benecial for me. All of my thoughts create healthiness within me. My mind dwells only on those thoughts which create more harmony, balance, and well-being within me and in the world around me. I automatically, and always, think in a decisive and determined way. I am full of resolution and the absolute assurance of the best possible outcome in everything that I do. I choose to look at the world around me in the bright, healthy light of optimism and self-assurance I do only those things which are best for me. I create the best within myself, I attract the best in others, and I nd the best in the world around me. I willingly, and without fail, take care of the duties and obligations which I have accepted for myself. I commit only to those responsibilities which I know I can fulll. I focus the attention of my mind only on those things that I can do something about. If l cannot affect it or direct it I accept it. I keep my mind too busy thinking good, healthy, positive, constructive, and productive thoughts to ever have any time for worry. I control the thoughts I choose. No thought, at any time, can dwell in my mind without my approval or permission. I never worry.

Page 15

I take full responsibility for everything about me, even the thoughts that I think. I am in control of the vast resources of my own mind. I alone am responsible for what I do and what I tell myself about me. No one can share this responsibility with me. I also allow others to accept their responsibilities for themselves and I do not try to accept their responsibilities for them. I enjoy being responsible. It puts me in charge of being me and that's a challenge I enjoy. I allow no one else, at any time, to assume control or responsibility over my life or over anything that I do. My responsibility to others is an extension of my own responsibility to myself. I choose to leave nothing about me up to chance. When it comes to me and anything in my life, l choose to CHOOSE! My choices are mine alone to make for myself. I do not, at any time, allow anyone else to make my choices for me. And I accept full responsibility for every choice and decision I make. I always meet all of the obligations which I accept. And I accept no obligations which I will not meet. I am trustworthy. I can be counted on. I have accepted winning responsibility for myself-and I always live up to the responsibilities I accept. There is no they on whom I lay the blame, or with whom I share my own personal responsibilities. I have learned the great secret of mastering my own destiny. I have learned that "they" is me!" I have no need to make excuses and no one needs to carry my responsibility for me. I gladly carry my own weight and I carry it well. Each day I acknowledge and accept the responsibility not only for my own actions but also for my emotions, my thoughts, and my attitudes. I accept the responsibility for living my life in a way which creates my strengths, my happiness, my positive, healthy beliefs, and for my past, my present, and my future.

And tomorrow, when I'm even better, I'll like myself then, too? It's true that there really is no one else like me in the entire world. There never was another me before, and there will never be another me again. I am unique from the top of my head to the bottom of my feet. In some ways I may look and act and sound like some others but I am not them. I am me. I wanted to be somebody and now I know I am. I would rather be me than anyone else in the world.

I know what to do and when to do it, and I do everything I need to do, when I need to do it. l program my mind to make the maximum use of my time. I am in control of my time and how to use it. I like being organized, efcient, and on top of things. Controlling my time keeps me that way. I never waste time I always "plan" time. And because I plan my time I always have time to do the things I choose to do. Each day I become more organized and in control of all areas of my life, at home, at work, in my mind and in my thoughts and in everything I do. l am very well organized. Each night I make a list of things I need to do the next day. I set my priorities and I follow them. I am always on time. I am always right where I need to be, exactly when I need to be there. Being on time is easy for me and the more I control my time and the more organized I become, the easier it is. I am in control of my feelings, my emotions, my attitudes, and my needs. I control them; they do not control me. I have the winning vote in the outcome of my own actions. And I choose to live my life by choice, not chance. Therefore, I take the time to take control.

The way I think is the way I live and I think "right." I am the director of my destiny. I know where I am going and I know why I am going there. My earthly life is in my hands and in my control. I control my goals and the achievement of my goals. I organize my goals by writing each of them down, along with the steps I need to reach them. One of the reasons for my success is that my goals are clearly dened and organized. I am in complete control of what I think and how I think. Therefore, I choose to think only those

Today I have the inner strength to do more than ever. I am an exceptional human being. My goals and my incredible belief in myself turn my goals into reality. I have the power to live my dreams.

Positive Self-Talk
One of the most powerful influences on your attitude and personality is what you say to yourself. It is not what happens to you, but how you respond internally to what happens to you, that determine your thoughts, feelings, and your actions. By controlling your inner dialogue, or your self talk, you can begin to assert control over every part of your life. Your self-talk determines the majority of your emotional life. This is because, the words that you use to describe what is happening to you, and how you feel about external events, will trigger the emotions of happiness or unhappiness that you experience. When you see things positively and you look for the good in every situation and in each person, you will become a very positive and optimistic person.

Page 31

Since the quality of your life is determined by how you feel moment to moment, you should make it a habit to only think and talk about what you want and keep your mind off of what you dont want. You are constantly faced with challenges, difficulties, and problems every day of your life. They are unavoidable and one of the inevitable parts of being human. But as you draw upon your resources to respond effectively to each challenge, you grow and become a stronger person. When you look back over your life, youll see that you are the kind of person that you are because of all the difficulties and problems that you have had to overcome in your life. Without those setbacks, you could not have learned what you needed to know to develop the character and strength that you have at this point in your life. Much of your ability to succeed comes from the way you deal with life. Having a positive mental attitude is indispensable for success and happiness. It is the key to success in business, and it is vital to building strong relationships with other people. Everyone wants to be around a positive person with a cheerful attitude towards life. But no one wants to be around a negative person who is always pessimistic about everything. Your ability to develop and maintain a positive mental attitude, no matter what the situation may be, will play a critical role in any success you achieve. One of the best ways to define a positive mental attitude is having a constructive and positive response to adversity. It is only when you are confronted with a setback or adversity that you really know if you have a positive attitude or not. Anyone can be positive when things are going well. It is only when things are going against you, that you are able to demonstrate to yourself and others, that you have a positive character and personality. One of the common characteristics of all high achieving men and women is that they recognize the inevitability of temporary setbacks and disappointments. They accept them as a normal and natural part of their life. They do everything possible to avoid problems, but when they come up; successful people learn from them and rise above them. They continue to move forward towards their goals. Optimistic people develop the habit of talking to themselves in constructive ways. Whenever they experience adversity of any kind, they immediately describe it to themselves in such a way that it looses its ability to trigger negative emotions. They are able to exert a sense of control by how they describe any event or situation to themselves.
Page 32

There is a natural tendency in all of us to react emotionally when our expectations are frustrated in any way. When something we wanted and hoped for fails to materialize, we feel a temporary sense of disappointment and unhappiness. We feel hurt and disillusioned. We react just as though we had been punched in the emotional solar plexus. A person who is positive and optimistic is resilient and bounces back fast when he or she encounters a problem or setback of any kind. He or she responds quickly to an adverse event and interprets it as being temporary and only external. An optimistic person takes full control of his or her inner dialogue and counters any negative feelings by immediately reframing the event so that appears positive in some way. Since your mind can hold only one thought at a time, either positive or negative, if you deliberately choose the positive thought to dwell upon, you keep your mind optimistic and your emotions positive. Since your thoughts and feelings determine you actions, if you keep your words and thoughts positive, you will automatically be a more positive person and move more rapidly toward your goals. It all comes down to the way you talk to yourself on a daily basis. When a problem or difficulty comes up you must learn to change your language from negative to positive. For example, you should learn to use the word situation instead of problem. A problem is something you wrestle and struggle with. It represents a potential loss and difficultly. A situation, on the other hand, is just something that you deal with. The event is the same. But the way you interpret the event to yourself is what makes it sound and appear completely different. An even better word to substitute for problem is the word challenge. When you are faced with a difficulty of any kind, instead of saying, I have a problem, you should say, I have an interesting challenge facing me. The word challenge is inherently positive. It is something that you rise to and that makes you stronger. It is again the same situation, only the word that you are using to describe it is different. As a result, your emotional response will be different as well. The best of all possible words for any event or situation is the word opportunity. When you are faced with a difficulty of any kind, instead of saying, I have a problem, you should say, I am faced with an unexpected opportunity. Within ever difficulty or problem, there lies the seed of an equal or greater opportunity or benefit. If you focus your attention on finding out what the valuable lesson is, you will always find it.
Page 33

You should start your day in front of a mirror saying affirmations, such as I like myself, I am the best, and I can do it. These are personal and positive affirmations that will build your levels of self confidence and self-esteem. You should say these affirmations out loud in front of a mirror at least 50 times a day. By doing this, you will be driving these new positive thoughts deep into your subconscious. When you first begin to do this, youll feel kind of funny doing it, only because your mind over many years has been programmed with so much negativity that it will take time to reprogram your mind with these new positive affirmations. The hallmark of the truly successful and happy person is the ability to be objective and unemotional when caught up in the inevitable storms of daily life. The high achieving individual has the ability to continue talking to himself or herself in a positive and optimistic way no matter what the situation is. They are always calm, clear, and completely under control. As a result, they are able to exert a far greater sense of control and influence over their environment, and are less likely to be angry, upset, or distracted by problems or difficulties. The starting point of becoming a more positive person is to monitor and control your self-talk every minute of the day. Keep your thoughts and words positive and consistent with your goals. Keep your mind focused on what you want and on becoming the person you want to be. Remember that it is impossible to learn, grow and become successful without adversity and difficulties. You must rise above them in order to become a better person. So, welcome each difficulty as a learning experience and look into the situation to find something good or beneficial in it. Always, keep your thoughts on your future and on your goals. Constantly think about the person you want to become. When things go wrong temporarily, respond by saying to yourself, I believe in the perfect outcome of every situation in my life. Resolve to be cheerful and pleasant in every situation. Resist every temptation to respond to a situation negatively. View disappointment as an opportunity to grow stronger, and talk to yourself and others about it in a positive and optimistic way. When you practice positive self-talk, and keep your words and your mental pictures consistent with your goals, nothing can stop you from being the success you are meant to be.
