The Scroll Marked Six   羊皮卷之六


Today I will be master of my emotions.

The tides advance; the tides recede. Winter goes and summer comes. summer wanes and the cold increases. The sun rises; the sun sets. The moon is full; the moon is black. The birds arrive; the birds depart. Flowers bloom; flowers fade. Seeds are sown; harvests are reaped. all nature is a circle of moods and I am a part of nature and so, like the tides, my moods will rise; my moods will fall.

Today I will be master of my emotions.

It is one of nature's tricks, little understood, that each day I awaken with moods that have changed from yesterday. Yesterday's joy wilI become today's sadness; yet today's sadness will grow into tomorrow's joy. Inside me is a wheel, constantly turning from sadness to joy, from exultation to depression, from happiness to melancholy. Like the flowers, today's full bloom of joy will fade and wither into despondency, yet I will remember that as today's dead flower carries the seed of tomorrow's bloom so, too, does today's sadness carry the seed of tomorrow's joy.

Today I will be master of my emotions.

And how will I master these emotions so that each day will be productive? For unless my mood is right the day will be a failure. Trees and plants depend on the weather to flourish but I make my own weather, yea I transport it with me. If I bring rain and gloom and darkness and pessimism to my customers then they will react with rain and gloom and darkness and pessimism and they will purchase naught. If I bring joy and enthusiasm and brightness and laughter to my customers they will react with joy and enthusiasm and brightness and laughter and my weather will produce a harvest of sales and a granary of gold for me.

Today I will be master of my emotions.

And how will I master my emotions so that every day is a happy day, and a productive one? I will learn this secret of the ages: Weak is he who permits his thoughts to control his actions; strong is he who forces his actions to control his thoughts. Each day, when I awaken, I will follow this plan of battle before I am captured by the forces of sadness, self-pity and failure-

If I feel depressed I will sing.

If I feel sad I will laugh.

If I feel ill I will double my labor.

If I feel fear I will plunge ahead.

If I feel inferior I will wear new garments.

If I feel uncertain I will raise my voice.

If I feel poverty I will think of wealth to come.

If I feel incompetent I will remember past success.

If I feel insignificant I will remember my goals.

Today I will be master of my emotions.  

Henceforth, I will know that only those with inferior ability can always be at their best, and I am not inferior. There will be days When I must IN THE WORLD constantly struggle against forces which would tear me down. Those such as despair and sadness are simple to recognize but there are others which approach with a smile and the hand of friendship and they can also destroy me. Against them, too, I must never relinquish control-

If I become overconfident I will recall my failures.

If I overindulge I will think of past hungers.

If I feel complacency I will remember my competition.

If I enjoy moments of greatness I will remember moments of shame.

If I feel all-powerful I will try to stop the wind.

If I attain great wealth I will remember one unfed mouth.

If l become overly proud I will remember a moment of weakness.

If I feel my skill is unmatched I will look at the stars.

Today I will be master of my emotions.

And with this new knowledge I will also understand and recognize the moods of him on whom I call. I will make allowances for his anger and irritation of today for he knows not the secret of controlling his mind. I can withstand his arrows and insults for now I know that tomorrow he will change and be a joy to approach.

No longer will I judge a man on one meeting; no longer will I fail to call again tomorrow on he who meets me with hate today. This day he will not buy gold chariots for a penny, yet tomorrow he would exchange his home for a tree. My knowledge of this secret will be my key to great wealth.

Today l will be master of my emotions.

Henceforth I will recognize and identify the mystery of moods in all mankind, and in me. From this moment I am prepared to control whatever personality awakes in me each day. I will master my moods through positive action and when I master my moods I will control my destiny.

Today I control my destiny, and my destiny is to become the greatest salesman in the world!

I will become master of myself.

I will become great.

今天我学会控制情绪。

潮起潮落，冬去春来，夏末秋至，日出日落，月圆月缺，雁来雁往，花飞花谢，草长瓜熟，自然界万物都在循环往复的变化中，我也不例外，情绪会时好时坏。

今天我学会控制情绪。

这是大自然的玩笑，很少有人窥破天机。每天我醒来时，不再有旧日的心情。昨日的快乐变成今天的哀愁，今天的悲伤又转为明日的喜悦。我心中像一只轮子不停地转着，由乐而悲，由悲而喜，由喜而忧。这就好比花儿的变化，今天枯败的花儿蕴藏着明天新生的种子，今天的悲伤也预示着明天的快乐。

今天我学会控制情绪。

我怎样才能控制情绪，以使每天卓有成效呢？除非我心平气和，否则迎来的又将是失败的一天。花草树木，随着气候的变化而生长，但是我为自己创造天气。我要学会用自己的心灵弥补气候的不足。如果我为顾客带来风雨、忧郁、黑暗和悲观，那么他们也会报之于风雨、忧郁、黑暗和悲观，而他们什么也不会买。相反的，如果我们为顾客献上欢乐、喜悦、光明和笑声，他们也会报之以欢乐、喜悦、光明和笑声，我就能获得销售上的丰收，赚取成仓的金币。

今天我学会控制情绪。

我怎样才能控制情绪，让每天充满幸福和欢乐？我要学会这个千古秘诀：弱者任思绪控制行为，强者让行控制思绪。每天醒来当我被悲伤、自怜、失败的情绪包围时，我就这样与之对抗：

沮丧时，我引吭高歌。

悲伤时，我开怀大笑。

病痛时，我加倍工作。

恐惧时，我勇往直前。

自卑时，我换上新装。

不安时，我提高嗓声。

穷困潦倒时，我想象未来的富有。

力不从心时，我回想过去的成功。

自轻自贱时，我想想自己的目标。

总之，今天我要学会控制自己的情绪。

从今往后，我明白了，只有低能者才会江郎才尽，我并非低能者，我必须不断对抗那限些企图摧垮我的力量。失望与悲伤一眼就会被识破，而其它许多敌人是不易觉察的。它们往往面带微笑，却随时可能将我们摧垮。对它们，我们永远不能放松警惕。

自高自大时，我要追寻失败的记忆。

纵情得意时，我要记得挨饿的日子。

洋洋得意时，我要想想竞争的对手。

沾沾自喜时，不要忘了那忍辱的时刻。

自以为是时，看看自己能否让步驻步。

腰缠万贯时，想想那些食不果腹的人。

骄傲自满时，要想到自己怯懦的时候。

不可一世时，让我抬头，仰望群星。

今天我学会控制情绪。

有了这项新本领，我也更能体察别人的情绪变化。我宽容怒气冲冲的人，因为他尚未懂得控制自己的情绪，就可以忍受他的指责与辱骂，因为我知道明天他会改变，重新变得随和。

我不再只凭一面之交来判断一个人，也不再一时的怨恨与人绝交，今天不肯花一分钱买金蓬马车的人，明天也许会用全部家当换树苗。知道了这个秘密，我可以获得极大的财富。

今天我学会控制情绪。

我从此领悟人类情绪的变化的奥秘。对于自己千变万化的个性，我不再听之任之，我知道，只有积极主动地控制情绪，才能掌握自己的命运。

我控制自己的命运就是成为世界上最伟大的推销员！

我成为自己的主人。

我由此而变得伟大。

The Scroll Marked Seven   羊皮卷之七



I will laugh at the world.  

No living creature can laugh except man. Trees may bleed when they are wounded, and beasts in the field will cry in pain and hunger, yet only I have the gift of laughter and it is mine to use whenever I choose. Henceforth I will cultivate the habit of laughter.  

I will smile and my digestion will improve; I will chuckle and my burdens will be lightened; I will laugh and my life will be lengthened for this is the great secret of long life and now it is mine.  

I will laugh at the world.  

And most of all, I will laugh at myself for man is most comical when he takes himself too seriously. Never will I fall into this trap of the mind. For though I be nature's greatest miracle am I not still a mere grain tossed about by the winds of time? Do I truly know whence I came or whither I am bound? Will my concern for this day not seem foolish ten years hence? Why should I permit the petty happenings of today to disturb me? What can take place before this sun sets which will not seem insignificant in the river of centuries?  

I will laugh at the world.  

And how can I laugh when confronted with man or deed which offends me so as to bring forth my tears or my curses? Four words I will train myself to say until they become a habit so strong that immediately they will appear in my mind whenever good humor threatens to depart from me. These words, passed down from the ancients, will carry me through every adversity and maintain my life in balance. These four words are: This too shall pass.  

I will laugh at the world.  

For all worldly things shall indeed pass. When I am heavy with heartache I shall console myself that this too shall pass; when I am puffed with success I shall warn myself that this too shall pass. When I am strangled in poverty I shall tell myself that this too shall pass; when I am burdened with wealth I shall tell myself that this too shall pass. Yea, verily, where is he who built the pyramid? Is he not buried within its stone? And will the pyramid, one day, not also be buried under sand? If all things shall pass why should I be of concern for today?  

I will laugh at the world.  

I will paint this day with laughter; I will frame this night in song. Never will I labor to be happy; rather will I remain too busy to be sad. I will enjoy today's happiness today. It is not grain to be stored in a box. It is not wine to be saved in a jar. It cannot be saved for the morrow. It must be sown and reaped on the same day and this I will do, henceforth.  

I will laugh at the world.  

And with my laughter all things will be reduced to their proper size. I will laugh at my failures and they will vanish in clouds of new dreams; I will laugh at my successes and they will shrink to their true value. I will laugh at evil and it will die untasted; I will laugh at goodness and it will thrive and abound. Each day will be triumphant only when my smiles bring forth smiles from others and this l do in selfishness, for those on whom l flown are those who purchase not my goods.  

I will laugh at the world.  

Henceforth will l shed only tears of sweat, for those of sadness or remorse or frustration are of no value in the market place whilst each smile can be exchanged for gold and each kind word, spoken from my heart, can build a castle.  

Never will l allow myself to become so important, so wise, so dignified, so powerful, that I forget how to laugh at myself and my world. In this matter I will always remain as a child, for only as a cl1ild am I given the ability to look up to others; and so long as I 1ook up to another I will never grow too long for my cot.  

I will laugh at the world.  

And so long as I can laugh never will I be poor. This, then, is one of nature's greatest gifts, and l will waste it no more. Only with laughter and happiness can l truly become a success. Only with laughter and happiness can I enjoy the fruits of my labor. Were it not so, far better would it be to fail, for happiness is the wine that sharpens the taste of the meal. To enjoy success I must have happiness, and laughter will be the maiden who serves me.  

I will be happy.  

I will be successful.  

I will be the greatest salesman the world has ever known.


------------------------------------------------------------------------------


我要笑遍世界。

只有人类才会笑。树木受伤时也会流“血”，禽兽也会因痛苦和饥饿而哭嚎哀鸣，然而，只有我们才具备笑的天赋，可以随时开怀大笑。从今往后，我要培养笑的习惯。

笑有助于消化，笑能减轻压力，笑，是长寿的秘方。现在我终于掌握了它。

我要笑遍世界。

我笑自己，因为自视甚高的人往往显得滑稽。千万不能跌进这个精神陷阱，虽说我们是造物主最伟大的奇迹，我不也是沧海一栗吗？我真的知道自己从那里来，到那里去吗？我现在所关心的事情，十年后看来，不会显得愚蠢吗？为什么我要现在发生的微不足道的琐事烦扰我？这漫漫的历史长河中，能留下多少日落的记忆？

我要笑遍世界。

当我受别人的冒犯时，当我遇到不如意的事情时，我只会流泪诅咒，却怎么笑得出来？有一句至理名言，我要反复练习，直到它深入我的骨髓，出口成言，让我永远保持良好的心境。这句话，传自远古时代，它们将陪我度过难关，使我的生活保持平衡。这句至理名言就是：这一切都会过去。

我要笑遍世界。

世上种种到头来都会成为过去。心力衰竭时，我安慰自己，这一切都会过去：当我因成功洋洋得意时，我提醒自己，这一切都会过去。穷困潦倒时，我告诉自己，这一切都会过去。腰缠万贯时，我也告诉自己，这一切都会过去。是的，昔日修建金字塔的人早已作古，埋在冰冷的石头下面，而金字塔有朝一日，也会埋在沙土下面。如果世上种种终必成空，我又为何对今天的得失斤斤计较？

我要笑遍世界。

我要用笑声点缀今天，我要用歌声照亮黑夜。我不再苦苦寻觅快乐，我要在繁忙的工作中忘记悲伤。我要享受今天的快乐，它不像粮食可以贮藏，更不似美酒越陈越香。我不是为将来而活。今天播种今天收获。

我要笑遍世界。

笑声中，一切都显露本色。我笑自己的失败，它们将化为梦的云彩；我笑自己的成功，它们回复本来面目；我笑邪恶，它们远我而去；我笑善良，它们发扬光大。我要用我的笑容感染别人，虽然我的目的自私，但这确实是成功之道，因为皱起的眉头会让顾客弃我而去。

我要笑遍世界。

从今往后，我只因幸福而落泪，因为悲伤、悔恨、挫折的泪水在商场上毫无家值，只有微笑可以换来财富，善言可以建起一座城堡。

我不再允许自己因为变得重要、聪明、体面、强大，而忘记如何嘲笑自己和周围的一切。在这一点上，我要永远像小孩一样，因为只有做回小孩，我才能尊敬别人，尊敬别人，我才不会自以为是。

我要笑遍世界。

只要我能笑，就永远不会贫穷。这也是天赋，我不再浪费它。只有在笑声和快乐中，我才能享受到劳动的果实。如果不这样，我会失败，因为快乐是提味的美酒佳酿。要想享受成功，必须先有快乐，而笑声便是那伴娘。

我要快乐。  

我要成功。

我要成为世界上最伟大的推销员。

The Scroll Marked Eight   羊皮卷之八


Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold.  

A mulberry leaf touched with the genius of man becomes silk.  

A field of clay touched with the genius of man becomes a castle.  

A Cyprus tree touched with the genius of man becomes a shrine.  

A cut of sheep's hair touched with the genius of man becomes raiment for a king.  

If it is possible for leaves and clay and wood and hair to have their value multiplied a hundred, yea a thousandfold by man, cannot I do the same with the clay which bears my name?  

Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold.  

I am liken to a grain of wheat which faces one of three futures. The wheat can be placed in a sack and dumped in a stall until it is fed to swine. Or it can be ground to flour and made into bread. Or it can be placed in the earth and allowed to grow until its golden head divides and produces a thousand grains from the one.  

I am liken to a grain of wheat with one difference. The wheat cannot choose whether it be fed to swine, ground for bread, or planted to multiply. I have a choice and I will not let my life be fed to swine nor will I let it be ground under the rocks of failure and despair to be broken open and devoured by the will of others.  

Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold.  

To grow and multiply it is necessary to plant the wheat grain in the darkness of the earth and my failures, my despairs, my ignorance, and my inabilities are the darkness in which I have been planted in order to ripen. Now, like the wheat grain which will sprout and blossom only if it is nurtured with rain and sun and warm winds, I too must nurture my body and mind to fulfill my dreams. But to grow to full stature the wheat must wait on the whims of nature. I need not wait for I have the power to choose my own destiny.  

Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold.  

And how will I accomplish this? First I will set goals for the day, the week, the month, the year, and my life. Just as the rain must fall before the wheat will crack its shell and sprout, so must I have objectives before my life will crystallize. Insetting my goals I will consider my best performance of the past and multiply it a hundredfold. This will be the standard by which I will live in the future. Never will I be of concern that my goals are too high for is it not better to aim my spear at the moon and strike only an eagle than to arm my spear at the eagle and strike only a rock?  

Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold.  

The height of my goals will not hold me in awe though I may stumble often before they are reached. If I stumble I will rise and my falls will not concern me for all men must stumble often to reach the hearth. Only a worm is free from the worry of stumbling. I am not a worm. I am not an onion plant. I am not a sheep. I am a man. Let others build a cave with their clay. I will build a castle with mine.  

Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold.  

And just as the sun must warm the earth to bring forth the seedling of wheat so, too, will the words on these scrolls warm my life and turn my dreams into reality. Today I will surpass every action which I performed yesterday. I will climb today's mountain to the utmost of my ability yet tomorrow I will climb higher than today, and the next will be higher than tomorrow. To surpass the deeds of others is unimportant; to surpass my own deeds is all.  

Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold.  

And just as the warm wind guides the wheat to maturity, the same winds will carry my voice to those who will listen and my words will announce my goals. Once spoken I dare not recall them lest I lose face. I will be as my own prophet and though all may laugh at my utterances they will hear my plans, they will know my dreams; and thus there will be no escape for me until my words become accomplished deeds.  

Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold.  

I will commit not the terrible crime of aiming too low.  

I will do the work that a failure will not do.  

I will always let my reach exceed my grasp.  

I will never be content with my performance in the market.  

I will always raise my goals as soon as they are attained.  

I will always strive to make the next hour better than this one.  

I will always announce my goals to the world.  

Yet, never will I proclaim my accomplishments. Let the world, instead, approach me with praise and may I have the wisdom to receive it in humility.  

Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold.  

One grain of wheat when multiplied a hundredfold will produce a hundred stalks. Multiply these a hundredfold, ten times, and they will feed all the cities of the earth. Am I not more than a grain of wheat?  

Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold.  

And when it is done I will do it again, and again, and there will be astonishment and wonder at my greatness as the words of these scrolls are fulfilled in me.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

今天我要加倍重视自己的价值。

桑叶在天才的手中变成了丝绸。

粘土在天才的手中变成了堡垒。

柏树在天才的手中变成了殿堂。

羊毛在天才的手中变成了袈裟。

如果桑叶、粘土、柏树、羊毛经过人的创造，可以成百上千地提高自身的价值，那么我们为什么不能使自己身价百倍呢？

今天我要加倍重视自己的价值。

我的命运如同一颗麦粒，有着三种不同的道路。一颗麦粒可能被装进麻袋，堆在货架上，等着喂猪；也可能被磨成面粉，做成面包；还可能撒在土壤里，让它生长，直到金黄的麦穗上结出成百上千颗麦粒。

我和一颗麦粒唯一不同在于：麦粒无法选择是变得腐烂还是做成面包，或是种植生长。而我有选择的自由，我不会让生命腐烂，也不会让它在失败，绝望的岩石下磨碎，任人摆布。

今天我要加倍重视自己的价值。

要想让麦粒生长、结实，必须把它种植在黑暗的泥土中，我的失败、失望、无知、无能便是那黑暗的泥土，我须深深地扎在泥土中，等待成熟。麦粒在阳光雨露的哺育下，终于发芽、开花、结实。同样，我也要健全自己的身体和心灵，以实现自己的梦想。麦粒须等待大自然的契机方能成熟，我却无须等待，因为我有选择自己命运的能力。

今天我要加倍重视自己的价值。

怎样才能做到呢？首先，我要为每一天，每个星期、每个月。每一年、甚至我的一生确立目标。正像种子需要雨水的滋润才能破土而出，发芽长叶，我的生命也须有目的方能结出硕果。在制定目标的时候，不妨参考过去最好的成绩，使其发扬光大。这必须成为我未来生活的目标。永远不要当心目标过高。取法乎上，得其中也，取法中也，得其下也。

今天我要加倍重视自己的价值。

高远的目标不会让我们望而生畏，虽然在达到目标以前可能屡受挫折。摔倒了，再爬起来，我不灰心因为每个人在抵达目标之前都会受到挫折。只有小爬虫不必担心摔倒。我不是小爬虫，不是洋葱，不是绵羊。我是一个人。让别人作他们的粘土造穴吧，我只要一座城堡。

今天我么加倍重视自己的价值。

太阳温暖大地，麦粒吐穗结实。这些羊皮卷上的话也照耀我的生活，使梦想成真。今天我要超越昨天的成就。我要竭尽全力攀登今天的高峰，明天更上一层楼。超越别人并不重要，超越自己才是最重要的。

今天我要加倍重视自己的价值。

春风吹熟了麦穗，风声也将我的声音吹往那些愿意聆听者的耳畔。我要宣告我的目标。君子一言，驷马难追。我要成为自己的预言家。虽然大家可能嘲笑我的言辞但会倾听我的计划，了解我的梦想，因为我无处可逃，直到兑现了诺言。

今天我要加倍重视自己的价值。

我不能放低目标。

我要做失败者不屑一顾的事。

我不停留在力所能及的事上。

我不满足于现有的成就。

目标达到后再定一个更高的目标。

我要努力使下一刻比此刻更好。

我要常常向世人宣告我的目标。

但是我决不炫耀我的成绩。让世人来赞美我的吧，但愿我能明智而谦恭地接受它们。

今天我要加倍重视自己的价值。

一颗麦粒增加数倍以后，可以变成千株麦苗，再把这些麦苗增加数倍，如此数十次，它们可以供养世上所有的城市。难道我不如一颗麦粒吗？

当我完成这件事，我再接再励。当羊皮卷上的话在我身上实现时，世上会惊叹我的伟大。

The Scroll Marked IX   羊皮卷之九


My dreams are worthless, my plans are dust, my goals are impossible.

All are of no value unless they are followed by action.

I will act now.

Never has there been a map, however carefully executed to detail and scale, which carried its owner over even one inch of ground. Never has there been a parchment of law, however fair, which prevented one crime. Never has there been a scroll, even such as the one I hold, which earned so much as a penny or produced a single word of acclamation. Action, alone, is the tinder which ignites the map, the parchment, this scroll, my dreams, my plans, my goals, into a living force. Action is the food and drink which will nourish my success.

I will act now.

My procrastination which has held me back was born of fear and now I recognize this secret mined from the depths of all courageous hearts. Now I know that to conquer fear I must always act without hesitation and the flutters in my heart will vanish. Now I know that action reduces the lion of terror to an ant of equanimity.

I will act now.

Henceforth, I will remember the lesson of the firefly who gives of its light only when it is on the wing, only when it is in action. I will become a firefly and even in the day my glow will be seen in spite of the sun. Let others be as butterflies who preen their wings yet depend on the charity of a flower for life. I will be as the firefly and my light will brighten the world.

I will act now.

I will not avoid the tasks of today and charge them to tomorrow for I know that tomorrow never comes. Let me act now even though my actions may not bring happiness or success for it is better to act and fail than not to act and flounder. Happiness, in truth, may not be the fruit plucked by my action yet without action all fruit will die on the vine.

I will act now.

I will act now. I will act now. I will act now. Henceforth, I will repeat these words again and again and again, each hour, each day, every day, until the words become as much a habit as my breathing and the actions which follow become as instinctive as the blinking of my eyelids. With these words I can condition my mind to perform every act necessary for my success. With these words I can condition my mind to meet every challenge which the failure avoids.

I will act now.



I will repeat these words again and again and again.

When I awake I will say them and leap from my cot while the failure sleeps yet another hour.

I will act now.

When I enter the market place I will say them and immediately confront my first prospect while the failure ponders yet his possibility of rebuff.

I will act now.

When I face a closed door I will say them and knock while the failure waits outside with fear and trepidation.



I will act now.

When I face temptation I will say them and immediately act to remove myself from evil.



I will act now.

When I am tempted to quit and begin again tomorrow I will say them and immediately act to consummate another sale.

I will act now.

Only action determines my value in the market place and to multiply my value I will multiply my actions. I will walk where the failure fears to walk. I will work when the failure seeks rest. I will talk when the failure remains silent. I will call on ten who can buy my goods while the failure makes grand plans to call on one. I will say it is done before the failure says it is too late.





I will act now.

For now is all I have. Tomorrow is the day reserved for the labor of the lazy. I am not lazy. Tomorrow is the day when the evil become good. I am not evil. Tomorrow is the day when the weak become strong. I am not weak. Tomorrow is the day when the failure will succeed. I am not a failure.



I will act now.

When the lion is hungry he eats. When the eagle has thirst he drinks. Lest they act, both will perish.



I hunger for success. I thirst for happiness and peace of mind. Lest I act I will perish in a life of failure, misery, and sleepless nights.

I will command, and I will obey mine own command.



I will act now.

Success will not wait. If I delay she will become betrothed to another and lost to me forever.

This is the time. This is the place. I am the man.

I will act now.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------


我的幻想毫无价值，我的计划渺如尘埃，我的目标不可能达到。

一切的一切毫无意义－－除非我们付诸行动。

我现在就付诸行动。

一张地图，不论多么详尽，比例多精确，它永远不能带着它的主人在地面上移动半步。一个国家的法律，不论多么公正，永远不可能防止罪恶的发生。任何宝典，即使在我手中的羊皮卷，永远不可能创造财富。只有行动才能使地图、法律、宝典、梦想、计划、目标具有现实意义。行动，像食物和水一样，能滋润我，使我成功。

我现在就付诸行动。

拖延使我裹足不前，它来自恐惧。现在我从所有勇敢的心灵深处，体会到这一秘密。我知道，想克服恐惧，必须毫不犹豫，起而行动，唯其如此，心中的慌乱方得以平定。现在我知道，行动会使猛狮般的恐惧，减缓为蚂蚁般的平静。

我现在就付诸行动。

从此我要记住萤火虫的启迪：只有振翅的时候，才能发出光芒。我要成为一只萤火虫，即使在艳阳高照的白天，我也要发出光芒。让别人像蝴蝶一样。舞动翅膀，靠花朵的施舍生活；我要做萤火虫，照亮大地。





我现在就付诸行动。

我不把今天的事情留给明天，因为我知道明天是永远不会来临的。现在就付诸行动吧！即使我的行为不会带来快乐与成功，但是动而失败总比坐而待毙好。行动也许不会结出快乐的果实，但没有行动，所有的果实都无法收获。





我现在就付诸行动。

立即行动。立即行动。立即行动。从今往后，我要一遍又一遍，每时每刻重复这句话，直到成为习惯，好比呼吸一般，成为本能，好比眨眼一样。有了这句话，我就能调整自己的情绪，迎接失败者逃避而远之的每一次挑战。





我现在就付诸行动。



我一遍又一遍地重复这句话。

清晨醒来时，失败者流连于床榻，我却要默诵这句话，然后开始行动。

我现在就付诸行动。

外出推销时，失败者还在考虑是否遭到拒绝的时候，我要默诵着句话，面对第一个来临的顾客。



我现在就付诸行动。

面对紧闭的大门，失败者怀着恐惧与惶惑的心情，在门外等候；我默诵着句话，随即上前敲门。



我现在就付诸行动。

面对诱惑时，我默诵这句话，然后远离罪恶。





我现在就付诸行动。





我现在就付诸行动。

只有行动才能决定我在商场上的价值。若要加倍我的价值，我必须加倍努力。我要前往失败者惧怕的地方，当失败者休息的时候，我要继续工作。失败者沉默的时候，我开口推销，我要拜访十户可能买我东西的人家，而失败者在一番周详的计划之后，却只拜访一家。在失败者认为太晚时，我能够说大功告成。



我现在就付诸行动。

现在是我的所有。明日是为懒汉保留的工作日，我并不懒惰。明日是弃恶从善的日子，我并不邪恶。明日是弱者变强者的日子，我并不软弱。明日是失败者借口成功的日子，我并不是失败。





我现在就付诸行动。

我是雄狮，我是苍鹰，饥即食，渴即饮。除非行动，否则死路一条。



我渴望成功，快乐，心灵的平静。除非行动，否则我将在失败、不幸、夜不成眠的日子中死亡。

我发布命令。我要服从自己的命令。



我现在就付诸行动。

成功不是等待。如果我迟疑，她会投入别人的怀抱，永远弃我而去。

此时。此地。此人。

我现在就付诸行动。
