Success Passage: Old Man Worry by Napoleon Hill
Worry is a State of Mind based upon Fear. It works slowly, but persistently. It is insidious and subtle. Step by step it “digs itself in” until it paralyzes one’s reasoning faculty, destroys self-confidence and initiative. Worry is a form of sustained fear caused by indecision; therefore, it is a state of mind which can be controlled. Kill the Habit of Worry, in all its forms, by reaching a general, blanket Decision that nothing which Life has to offer is worth the price of Worry.

Success Strategy: Leave Your Comfort Zone Behind and Do It Afraid
There is a kind of Fear that lurks within our conscious and subconscious minds that is not natural; and, worse, in the long run, it does us harm. This type of Fear is self-induced, pernicious and irrational. It works in stealth mode and its objective is simple: to keep Change and Growth at bay and keep you locked in your “Comfort Zone.” If you are ever going to advance in life and seek to be, do and have more, you must – necessarily – leave the cozy confines of your Comfort Zone. There is no other way. Period.

Success Key No. 19: The Impression of Increase
Wealth-Culture consists in making constructive use of the people and things in your environment. First, get a clear mental picture of what you want – be very specific, very clear. Second, define a clear mental image of the Purpose for attaining what you want.

Fourth, keep unwaivering Faith that you will attain your goal, that God hears you, and that the Universe will respond. Do this, and you cannot fail to Succeed!
Success Strategy: The Seven Steps to Self-Confidence
A prerequisite to Succeed is that of attaining, cultivating and executing Self-Confidence. Generally, the greater one’s Self-Confidence, the greater the Success. How often have we heard the maxim that Success goes to “the man who thinks he can?” That is, the person who has the Self-Confidence in his or her ability to Succeed is the one who Succeeds. A careful analysis of the most Successful individuals of the world shows that the dominating quality that they ALL possessed was Self-Confidence. Nobody can bring you Success except yourself, and whether or not Success is attained is a function of your Self-Confidence.
Image Making: Acting “AS IF”
ONE OF THE MOST POWERFUL TOOLS to be used in constructive “Image Making” that I have learned – but find it rarely discussed – is the process of acting “As If.” As we continue to build the positive images in our mind, and as we plant those images into the subconscious mind, it is critically important that we take the next necessary steps of actually “stepping into” or assuming the Image(s) that we have created – of the person that we wish to become, or the Success that we Desire. Many have questioned or wondered how is that possible – how do we take Image Making transformation from the internal world into the external world? Acting AS IF is that technique, and it requires us to step outside of our comfort zone and began to assume the persona of the person that we Desire to become, or the Success that we Desire to attain. When we act AS IF, we take the Image Making process from our world within and apply it to our world without. Combining strong positive visual images in the consciousness of our mind and planting those images to the subconscious mind is the first half of the Image Making process. The second half of the process – which is just as equally important – is to act, immediately, AS IF, you are already that person and that you have achieved the goal of which you Desire.
