A few days ago I was having my devotion and came across an article by Zig Ziglar which I found really interesting. I have started incorporating the following procedure in my life daily and already beginning to experience positive results. Naturally, I felt obligated to share it with you:-)
Every morning before you start your day, and every evening at the close of the day, stand in front of the mirror in a room by yourself, look yourself in the eye (the eyes are the windows of the soul) and say, “I am a child of the King (John 1:12) in the will of God (The Lord’s Prayer), and can do all things through Christ who gives me the strength (Philippians 4:13). I claim the following attributes because I have the mind of Christ ( I Corinthians 2:11), am a confidant of God (Psalms 25:14), and although I am weak in many of these qualities I am specifically told (Joel 3:10) to ‘let the weak say I am strong.’ By claiming, developing and using these Biblical qualities, I will become the person God created me to be and will glorify God and benefit mankind.
“I am an honest, intelligent, organized, responsible, committed, teachable person who is sober, loyal, and clearly understands that regardless of who signs my paycheck I am self employed. I am an optimistic, punctual, enthusiastic, goal-setting, smart working self-starter who is a disciplined, focused, dependable, persistent positive thinker with great self-control, and am an energetic and diligent team player and hard worker who appreciates the opportunity my company and the free enterprise system offer me. I am thrifty with my resources and apply common sense to my daily tasks. I take honest pride in my competence, appearance and manners, and am motivated to be and do my best so that my healthy self-image will remain on solid ground. These are the qualities which enable me to manage myself and help give me employment security in a no job-security world.
