Self Confidence Formula

(This should be read out loud the first thing every morning and silently just before bed at night)
From the Science of Achievement Developed by Napoleon Hill

 

1

 

I know I have the ability to achieve the object of my definite purpose in life, therefore I demand of myself persistent continuous action toward its attainment, and I here now promise to render such action.

 

2

 

I realize the dominating thoughts of my mind will eventually reproduce themselves in outward physical action and gradually transform themselves into physical reality.  Therefore I will concentrate my thoughts for 30 minutes daily upon the task of thinking of the person I intend to become, thereby creating in my mind a clear mental picture.

 

3

 

I know through the principal of auto suggestion, any desire that I persistently hold in my mind will eventually seek expression through some practical means of attaining the object back of it, therefore I will devote 10 minutes daily to demanding of myself development of self confidence.

 

4

 

I have clearly written down a description of my definite chief aim in life and I will never stop trying until I shall have developed sufficient self confidence for its attainment.

 

5

 

I fully realize that no wealth or position can long endure unless built upon truth and justice, therefore I will engage in no transaction which does not benefit all whom it effects.  I will succeed by attracting to myself the forces I wish to use and the cooperation of other people.  I will induce others to serve me because of my willingness to serve others.  I will eliminate envy, hatred, jealousy, selfishness and cynicism (distrust - doubt), by developing love for all humanity, because I know that a negative attitude towards others can never bring me success.  I will cause others to believe in me because I will believe in them and in myself.  I will sign my name to this formula, commit it to memory and repeat it aloud once a day with full faith that it will gradually influence my thoughts and actions so that I will become a self reliant and successful person.
