<aside> 💡 Whatever idea you tell yourself, your mind will generate supporting arguments which will convince you of that further. Therefore, always tell yourself that you will succeed, because then your mind will tell you how to do so.

• People often confuse "thinking big" with "wishful thinking"; wishful thinking is the idea that you can wish and cause reaction, without any self action. Belief is not wishful thinking; belief is everything. When you believe I can do it, the how to do it develops.
• The attitude "okay I'll give it a try but I don't think it will work" produces failures. Disbelief is a negative power.
• When you tell yourself that today will be a bad day, your mind naturally discovers reasons why this is true, further convincing you that yes, indeed, it is a bad day. But if you tell yourself that it's a great day, your mind will work for you, and show you why.

How To Develop the Power of Belief

1. Think success, don't think failure. In every aspect of your life, think that you'll come out on top, and then the way to do so will appear. Thinking success conditions your mind to create plans that produce success.
2. Remind yourself that you are better than you think you are. Success does not require divine intellect; it just requires belief and hard work. Never sell yourself short.
3. Believe big; the size of your success is determined by the size of your belief. The bigger you belief, the more pathways to that belief your mind will create.
