If you believe in yourself, there is nothing you cannot achieve. Success starts with self-belief. If you believe in yourself, other people will believe in you and follow you to the gate of hell. Louisa May Alcott said, “He who believes is strong; he who doubt is weak. Strong convictions precede great actions.”

If you believe in yourself, you are strong. You can take on anything. You can do anything. You can change your life. You can face your fears. You can defeat your fears. You can connect with your inner self. But if you don’t believe in yourself, you won’t be able to connect with your real self. We need to connect with ourselves if we are to enjoy our lives. You cannot enjoy another person’s life. You can only enjoy your own life. And you cannot enjoy your life if you don’t know your real self. NEVER DOUBT YOURSELF!

But if you doubt yourself, you have defeated yourself. You have planted the seed of fear and doubt in your mind. Believe you can do anything, and you can. Norman Vincent Pearle once said, “Believe in yourself! Have faith in your abilities! Without a humble but reasonable confidence in your own powers you cannot be successful or happy.”

Believe in yourself.

Believe in your abilities.

Be confident.

Be bold. Be fearless, but be respectful.

Work hard. Work smart.

Success will come to you.

Words are strong and powerful. So be careful what you saying to yourself. If you want to say something to yourself, let it be something positive. Let it be something inspirational. Stop saying negative things to yourself. You are better and smarter than that. Positive words are what your mind is craving for. Feed your mind with positive words, and your world will change forever.

Are you ready to start saying positive things to yourself? If you are ready, start today.

The Benefits Of Defining Yourself

You are the only person who can define you. Do not allow people to define you. If you allow that to happen, they will give you the wrong picture of yourself.

One of the opportunities of your life is to be able to define your real self. Tell people who you are. Do not allow people to tell you who you are. They will tell you the wrong things about yourself.

Joseph Campbell said, “The privilege of a life time is being who you are.” You cannot know who you really are, if you do not define yourself in your own terms.

Sometimes we allow others to define us because we want them to like us. But we are not really helping ourselves by doing that. The great Aristotle said, “Know thyself.” If you want to live a positive, happier, healthier, and a successful life, you MUST know yourself.

You will never know yourself if you allow people who do not even know you to define you. They do not know you. They do not know what you stand for. They do not know where you are going. They know nothing about you. Because of that, do not let their opinions affect you. Their opinions have nothing to do with you. Just focus on what is important to you and the people around you.

Define yourself.
