TRAIN YOURSELF

TRAIN YOURSELF

WHAT you do for yourself counts far more than all that others have done or can do for you

Self-discipline is the most important feature in any life.

Unless you put yourself under mental discipline, you will never develop the forces in you that are valuable to the commercial world.

 

Rule your temper so that no matter what happens, what is said or done, your temper will be under absolute control.

The man who does not rule his temper can never achieve the success that belongs to him.

He destroys the building that he erects.

Govern your tongue, so that it will say nothing that will injure anyone around you.

 

Practically all the injury that is done to a character, to a business, a home, or a person, is done with words.

It is tongue work. The man or woman who makes no contribution to destructive thought and talk is a valuable asset anywhere.

 

He is deaf to anything that is destructive to another.

He is blind to anything that folks around him do.

He cannot speak of it. He has mastery of himself.

The efficiency of an office force is reduced sometimes by 50 percent by idle, unkind words.

The man who can govern his temper, his tongue, and his appetite, though he has but mediocre ability, is bound to get to the top.

Gaining the mastery of these will be among your first real victories.

 

It is controlled power that is valuable.

That waterfall is simply beautiful. It has no commercial value until it is harnessed.

It is the harnessed ability in you that is worthwhile, an ability under intelligent mastery.

Find out what you wish to be or do, then train yourself for it.

 

What you have undeveloped in you has no value. No one else either wishes or has the time to develop it. That is your business.

The training is all done by you.

If you have a voice, put yourself under a teacher; then work and carry out the teacher's instructions.

If it is art, put yourself under a competent instructor and obey the laws of art and work.

Nothing will take the place of hard work, intelligently directed. Talents in you need push and determination to make them worth money.

It is you, and you alone, who will do the developing.

The lazy person who waits for something to turn up is a failure.

 

The only things that will turn up are rent and bills.

Nothing will take the place of self-denial and hard work.

It is easy to become a failure; all you need to do is to idly dream.

It is the man who wills and keeps on willing who wins. Don't float. Don't wait for an opportunity. Go make your opportunity.

 

Put your whole self into life. Study, drive yourself.

Always remember that your worst enemy is inside of you.

No circumstance, no person or combination of persons can conquer you as long as you do not destroy your own prospects yourself.

Don't be satisfied with anything you do. Always seek to improve yourself.
