  7. “Believe in yourself! Have faith in your abilities! Without a humble but reasonable confidence in your own powers, you cannot be successful or happy.” - Norman Vincent Peale Bestselling author and speaker What does this mean?

  9. Thomas Alva Edison held 1,093 patents for different inventions. Many of them, like the light bulb, the phonograph, and the motion picture camera, were brilliant creations that have a huge influence on our everyday life. However, not everything he created was a success; he also had a few failures. One concept that never took off was Edison's interest in using cement to build things. He formed the Edison Portland Cement Co. in 1899, and made everything from cabinets (for phonographs) to pianos and houses. Unfortunately, at the time, concrete was too expensive and the idea was never accepted. Cement wasn't a total failure, though. His company was hired to build Yankee Stadium in the Bronx. Don’t Let the Opinions of Others Stop You

  10. Expectancy Theory states that our brains learns what to expect. You Get What You Expect • If you expect to fail, you will! • If you expect to succeed you will!

  11. What we believe about ourselves becomes our reality. Moving From “I Can’t” to “I Can!” “The only real limits to our potential are those we give ourselves.”

  12. Only you know your full potential. Believe Even When Others Don’t Believe in You

  13. Dr. Daniel Amen’s 18/40/60 Rule: • “When you’re 18, you worry about what everybody is thinking of you; when you’re 40, you don’t give a darn what anybody thinks of you; when you’re 60, you realize nobody’s been thinking of you at all.” • When you worry about what others think, you loose focus of your goals. Don’t Worry About Other People
