Faith is an optimist because it sees the way out. Doubt is a pessimist,
cannot see the way ahead and fears because
not conscious of being able
to cope with the uncertain.
Faith is the divine messenger sent to guide man, blinded
by doubt and
sin.
Your own estimate of yourself, of your ability, your standing, the
weight you carry, and
of the figure you cut in the world, will be
out-pictured in your appearance, in your manner.
Confidence is the
very basis of all achievement. There is a tremendous
power in the conviction that we can do a thing. The man who has great
faith in himself is relieved from a great many uncertainties as to
whether he is in his right place, from doubts as
to his ability, and from
fears regarding his future.
Freedom is essential to achievement. No once can do his greatest
work
when his mind is cramped with worry, anxiety, fear, or uncertainty, any
more than he can do his best physical
work with his body in a cramped
position. Absolute freedom is imperative for the best brain work.
Uncertainty and
doubt are great enemies of that concentration which is the
secret of all effectiveness.
We are told that it is
faith that doubles one's power and multiplies
one's ability, and that without it we can do nothing. How quickly a
strong
man is stripped of his power the moment he loses confidence in
himself or his ability!
The habit of dwelling on
difficulties and magnifying them weakens the
character and paralyzes the initiative in such a way as to hinder one
from
ever daring to undertake great things. The man who does things is
the man who sees the end and defies the obstacles.
Many
people never seem to come to themselves until they have received a
great humiliating defeat. This seems to touch a spring
deep in their
nature, setting free dynamic forces which enable them to do marvels.
When a man who has got the right
stuff in him is made a slip and feels
that he is down and out, when he sees those that know him regarding him
as a
failure, calling him a "has been", he makes a resolve to redeem
himself from the disgrace and every red blood corpuscle
in him helps him
to make good.
