“Without doubt, the most common weakness of all human beings is the habit of leaving their minds open to the negative influence of other people.

Therefore I will concentrate my thoughts for 30 minutes daily upon the task of thinking of the person I intend to become, thereby creating in my mind a clear mental picture of that person.”
