you will perform in every area of your life. The more you like your-
self, the better you will do, and the better you do, the more you will
like yourself.

BECOME YOUR OWN CHEERLEADER
To improve your performance in your work, or in any other area re-
quiring skill or ability, continually repeat the words,
“I’m the best,
I’m the best, I’m the best!”
By talking to yourself as if you were al-
ready the person you want to be sometime in the future, you be-
come your own cheerleader.You will then find yourself doing better
and better at whatever you attempt.
Another powerful affirmation you can repeat every morning be-
fore you start off is,
“I love my work!”
Sometimes when you wake up
in the morning, you won’t feel particularly excited about the com-
ing day. But you can take control over your mind and emotions by
repeating, “I love my work!” until it actually feels true.
Even better, you can start every day with the words,
“I like my-
self and I love my work!”
This affirmation, repeated enthusiastically
several times every morning, will rev you up and get you excited
about getting to your job.
