Whenever you go out of doors, draw the chin in, carry the crown of the head high and fill the lungs to the utmost; drink in the sunshine; greet your friends with a smile and put soul into every handclasp.

Do not fear being misunderstood. Try to fix firmly in your mind what you would like to do, and then, without veering the direction, you will move straight to the goal.

Keep your mind on the great and splendid things you would like to do, and then, as the days go gliding by, you will find yourself unconsciously seizing upon the opportunities that are required for the fulfillment of your desires, just as the coral insect takes from the running rides the elements it needs.

Picture in your mind the able, earnest, useful person you desire to be, and the thought you hold is hourly transforming you into that particular individual. Thought is supreme.

Preserve a right mental attitude – the attitude of courage, frankness, and good cheer. To think rightly is to create. All things come through desire. We become like that on which our hearts are fixed.

每次出门的时候，抬起你的下巴，高高昂起你的头，挺起胸膛；沐浴着阳光；微笑着和朋友打招呼，真诚的握手。

不要担心被误解，把你的心思集中在你想要做的事情上，并且坚持自己的方向，你就会发现自己直奔目标。

把你的精力集中在那些你喜欢做的美好并且伟大的事情上，那么，随着时间的流逝，你就会自觉不自觉地抓住那些让你的目标得以实现的机会，就象珊瑚借力潮汐吸取养料一样。

在你的头脑中刻画出那个你想成为的形象：能干、真诚、有益于社会，这样你所控制的思想就会分分钟的把你逐渐转化成那个形象，思想是至高无上的。

保持一份好的心态：勇敢、真诚、开朗。好的心态意味着创造力。任何事情都是从念想而来。我们最终会成为我们的心里所定的那个形象。
