Habits

Refuse to compromise!
...
Success and failure are largely the results of habits!

Think and Grow Rich

Emotions

Remember, when reading aloud the statement of your desire, that the mere reading of the words is of NO CONSEQUENCE -- UNLESS you mix emotion, or feeling with your words.

Think and Grow Rich

Christianity

The basis of Christianity is FAITH, not matter how many people may have perverted, or misinterpreted the meaning of this great force, and no matter how many dogmas and creeds have been created in its name, which do not reflect its tenets.

Think and Grow Rich

State of Mind

If you think you are beaten, you are, if you think you dare not, you don't. If you like to win, but you think you can't, it is almost certain you won't.

If you think you'll lose, you're lost. For out of the world we find, Success begins with a fellow's will -- It's all in the state of mind.

If you think you are outclassed, you are. You've got to think high to rise, you've got to be sure of yourself before you can ever win a prize.

Life's battles don't always go to the stronger or fater man, but soon or late the man who wins is the man WHO THINKS HE CAN!

Think and Grow Rich

Definite Chief Aim

<...you are asked to write out a statement of your major purpose, or Definite Chief Aim, commit it to memory, day after day, until these vibrations of sound have reached your subconscious mind.

Think and Grow Rich

Subconscious mind

To make this "deceit" more realistic, conduct yourself just as you would, if you were ALREADY IN POSSESSION OF THE MATERIAL THING WHICH YOU ARE DEMANDING, when you call upon your subconscious mind.

Think and Grow Rich

Belief

The state of mind must be BELIEF, not mere hope or wish.

Think and Grow Rich

Wish

If the thing you wish to do is right, and you believe in it, go ahead and do it!

Think And Grow Rich

Riches

If you don't see great riches in your imagination, you will never see them in your bank balance.

Think And Grow Rich

Method of transmutting desire for riches to money

First. Fix in your mind the exact amount of money you desire. It is not sufficient merely to say "I want plenty of money." Be definite as to the amount.

Second. Determine exactly what you intend to give in return for the money you desire. (There is no such reality as "something for nothing").

Third. Establish a definite date when you intend to possess the money you desire.

Fourth. Create a definite plan for carrying out your desire, and begin at once, whether you are ready or not, to put this plan into action.

Fifth. Write out a clear, concise statement of the amount of money you intend to acquire, name the time limit for its acquisition, state what you intend to give in return for the money, and describe clearly the plan through which you intend to accumulate it.

Sixth. Read you written statement aloud, twice daily, once just before retiring at night, and once after arising in the morning. As you read -- see and feel and believe yourself already in possession of the money.

Think And Grow Rich

Success

Success comes to those who become SUCCESS CONSIOUS. Failure comes to those who indeffirently allow themselves to become FAILURE CONSCIOUS.

Think And Grow Rich.

Overtime

Most managers have at least a suspicion that overtime doesn't help, that projects that work a lot of overtime are not much of a credit to their managers' skills and talents. But they end up allowing or encouraging overtime, anyway. Why is this? Jerry Weinberg has an answer of sorts: He suggests that we don't work overtime so much to get the work done on time as to shield ourselves from blame when the work inevitably doesn't get done on.
Peopleware.

To start with...

This is the place, where I put my thoughts and release my head for new thoughts.

Let it be.
