“A person who doubts himself is like a man who would enlist in the ranks of his enemies and bear arms against himself. He makes his failure certain by himself being the first person to be convinced of it.”
Alexandre Dumas (1802-1870);Writer, Author
Believe in yourself!
What was written almost a century ago by Napoleon Hill
remains true until today.
He said:
To be successful you must become a person with a great
capacity for belief....and the place to start believing is with yourself.
Recognize that you were born with the privilege to take
complete control of your own mind and make it give you whatever you
demand in life. The Creator never intended
for you to beg for anything in your life.
You can have whatever you want if you have a capacity for belief, to
direct your mind to whatever you want and off the things you do not want.
Applied faith is the only means by which the master key can
be appropriated and used.
To create the mental attitude favourable for the expression of faith:
1. Know what you want
and believe that you can and will get it
2. Give expressions
of gratitude many times daily for having received that what you want, even if you haven’t received
it physically yet...possession first starts in the mind...
3. Keep your mind
open for haunches from within, and when
you are inspired to action, do not wait but move on your personal initiative at
once. There can be no application of
applied faith without action.
4. When overtaken by
defeat as you may be many times, remember that man’s faith is tested many times
before he is crowned with final victory.
And accept your defeat as nothing more than a challenge to keep on
trying.
5. A burning desire
of the thing or circumstances you want is the
starting point of all applied
faith. Be definite, believe and act. And
keep on acting even if at first you may encounter defeat.
6. When doubt creeps
into your mind, remember that whatsoever
a man believeth, that he shall also reap.
Remember, faith is not something you get ,
faith is something you already have. But
you may be using it in reverse gear by believing in the circumstances and
things you do not want, the things you fear.
Remember also that faith is guidance only, it is not a
power which will bring you what you want, but a power that can guide you to go after what you want and
get it. Remember also that your faith is
limited only by your own capacity to believe.
You can do whatever you make up your mind to do.
Good luck on your lifejourney to success!
