Free yourself of your bad memories and fears of failure. Your self image is your most precious asset. Make it a daily task to build it, to nourish it and to feed it. Serendipity - Most of my successes have come purely by chance by being in the right place at the right time, as well as staying positive even when things look bad. The image that concerns most people is the reflection they see in other people's minds.
Man is a goal-seeking organism.
His personality is controlled not as much by his past accomplishments and present environment, as by his future goals. People with no definite goals have an unfocussed life - they accomplish little of substance. An unfocussed life is a wasted life, and a wasted life is most open to a low self image. So write down your daily goals. Always think the best of others.
