Zig Ziglar

Then the second paragraph, I, John Jones, I'm a compassionate, respectful, encouraging, who is a considerate, generous, gentle, patient, caring, sensitive, personable, attentive, fun-loving person.

I am supporting, giving, and forgiving, clean, kind, unselfish, affectionate, loving, family-oriented human being.

And I am a sincere and open-minded good listener and good finder who is trustworthy.

These are the qualities which enable me to build good relationships with my associates, neighbors, mate, and family.

Now, something interesting about that.

You see, again, Joy's brother says you cannot consistently perform in a manner which is inconsistent with the way that you see yourself.

Well, you see, when you claim to be kind and gentle and loving and affectionate and caring and then chew your wife or your husband out or somebody in a restaurant or somewhere else, the minute you do that, your conscience will be pricked and you'll say, hey, that is not me.

And you will change the behavior.

I'm talking about something that is psychologically and theologically sound, folks.

Something that will make a difference in your life.

There's no question about it.

Every day you do this, morning and night.

I'm a person of integrity with the faith and wisdom to know what I should do and the courage and convictions to follow through.

I have the vision to manage myself and to lead others.

I'm authoritative, confident, and humbly grateful for the opportunity life offers me.

I am fair, flexible, resourceful, creative, knowledgeable, decisive, and an extra miler with a service attitude who communicates well with others.

I am a consistent, pragmatic teacher with character and a finely tuned sense of humor.

I am an honorable person and am balanced in my personal, family, and business life.

I have a passion for being, doing, and learning more today so I can be and do more tomorrow.

Then you wind it up.
