1.看起来重要，会让你觉得自己很重要。 你的外表会说话。要确保外表能让你精神抖擞，满怀自信。外表也会影响他人。确保你的外表会传达出这样的信息，这个人很重要，很聪明，很成功，很可靠。

2.要认为自己的工作很重要。 只有这样，思想才能指引你更好的完成工作。你看重自己的工作，下属才会看重他们的工作。

3.每天鼓励自己几次。 写一个自我推销广告。要抓住所有机会，不断提醒自己：我是个一流人物。

4.不管遇到什么事情，都要问自己，成功人士会这么做吗？然后不断调整自己的行为。

Ever ask yoursel, "What is my greatest weakness?" Probably the greatest human weakness is self-deprecation-- that is, selling oneself short. Self-deprecatio shows through in coutless ways.

The point is this: Big thinkers are specialists in creating positive, forward-looking, optimistic pictures in their own minds and in the minds of others. To think big, we must use words and phrases that produce big, positive mental images.

Use big, bright, cheerful words. Use words that promise victory, hope, happiness, pleasure; avoid words that create unpleasant images of failure, defeat, grief.

Practice this. Practice being a big thinker. See the company's interst as identical with your own.

Get the big view of your job. Think, really think your present job is important. That next promotion depends mostly on how you think toward your present job.

To do anything, we must first believe it can be done. Believing something can be done sets the mind in motion to fina d way to do it.

Big people monopolize the listening. Small people monopolize the talking.

4. In all of life's situations, ask yourself, "Is this the way an important person thinks?" Then obey the answer.

Practice courtesy all the time.

1. Be an activationist. Be someone who does things. Be a doer, not a don't-er.

4. Use action to cure fear and gain confidence. Do what you fear, and fear disappears. Just try it and see.

5. Start your mental engine mechanically... Take action, dig in, and you move the spirit.

6. Think in terms of now.

7. Don't waste time getting ready to act. Start acting instead.

If you don't produce, you don't get where you want to go. Tell yourself, there IS a way.

1. Get a clear fix on where you want to go. Create an image of yourself ten years from now.

2. Write out your ten-year plan. Your life is too important to be left to chance. Put down on paper what you want to accomplish in your work, your home, and your social departments.

No one accomplishes more than he sets out to accomplish. So visualize a big future.

3. Surrender yourself to your desires. Set goals to get more energy. Set goals to get things done. Set goals and discover the rel enjoyment of living.

Throw away those murder weapons! Remember, the only way to get full power, to develop full go force, is to do what you want to do. Surrender to desire and gain energy, enthusiasm, mental zip, and even bettter health.

4. Let your major goal be your automatic pilot. When you let your goal absorb you, you'll find yourself making the right decisions to reach your goal. 5. Reach your goal one step at a time.

6. Build thirty-day goals.

7. Take detours in stride. A detour simply means another route. It should never mean surrendering the goal.

8. Invest in yourself. Purchase those things that build mental power and efficiency. Invest in education. Invest in idea starters. Real education, the kind worth investing in, is that which develops and cultivates your mind.

Just give other people the kind of treatment you like to receive. You'll be rewarded.
