My Personal Commitment
I, ________________________________, am serious about setting and reaching my

goals in my life, so on this ____________day of __________________, 20_______,
I promise myself that I will take the first step toward setting those goals.
I am willing to exchange temporary pleasures in the pursuit of happiness and the
striving for excellence in the pursuit of my goals. I am willing to discipline my
physical and emotional appetites to reach the long-range goals of happiness and
accomplishment. I recognize that to reach my goals I must grow personally and
have the right mental attitude, so I promise to specifically increase my knowledge
in my chosen field and regularly read positive growth books and magazines. I will
also attend lectures and seminars, take courses in personal growth and
development. I will utilize my time more effectively by enrolling in Automobile
University and listening to motivational and educational recordings while driving
or performing routine tasks at home or in the yard. I will keep a list of my
activities including the completion dates for each project in my Goals Program. I
further promise to list good ideas (mine and those of others) and to note thoughts,
power-phrases, and quotations which have meaning to me.

A Life-Changing Procedure
The eyes are the windows of the soul. So, to the person you are capable of
becoming, each evening, just before you go to bed, stand in front of a mirror
alone and in the first-person, present tense, look yourself in the eye and repeat
with passion and enthusiasm paragraphs A, B, C and D. Repeat this process
every morning and every evening from this day forward. Within one week you
will notice remarkable changes in your life. After thirty days add the procedure
at the bottom of this card.
“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
aa
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.
“I, ____________, am a compassionate, respectful encourager who is a
considerate, generous, gentle, patient, caring, sensitive, personable, attentive,
fun-loving person. I am a supportive, giving and forgiving, clean, kind,
unselfish, affectionate, loving, family-oriented human being and I am a
sincere and open-minded good listener and a good-finder who is
bb trustworthy. These are the qualities which enable me to build good

relationships with my associates, neighbors, mate and family.
“I, ____________, am 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 am authoritative,
confident, and humbly grateful for the opportunity life offers me. I am
cc
fair, flexible, resourceful, creative, knowledgeable, decisive and an
extra-miler with a servant’s 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, and have a passion for
being, doing and learning more today so I can be, do and have more tomorrow.
“These are the qualities of the winner I was born to be and I am fully committed
to developing these marvelous qualities with which I have been entrusted.
Tonight I’m going to sleep wonderfully well. I will dream powerful, positive
dreams. I will awaken energized and refreshed; tomorrow’s going to be
magnificent and my future is unlimited. Recognizing, claiming and
dd developing these qualities which I already have gives me a

legitimate chance to be happier, healthier, more prosperous, more
secure, have more friends, greater peace of mind, better family
relationships and legitimate hope that the future will be even better.”
Repeat the process the next morning and close by saying, “These are
the qualities of the winner I was born to be and I will develop and use these
qualities to achieve my worthy objectives. Today is a brand new day and it’s
mine to use in a marvelously productive way.”
After 30 days, add the next step:
Choose your strongest quality and the one you feel needs the most work.
Example: Strongest—honest. Needs most work—organized. On a separate
3x5 card, print “I, ___________, am a completely honest person and every day
I am getting better and better organized.” Keep this 3x5 card handy and read
it out loud at every opportunity for one week. Repeat this process with the
second strongest quality and the second one which needs the most work. Do
this until you’ve completed the entire list. Use this self-talk procedure as long
as you want to get more of the things money will buy and all of the things
money won’t buy.
Note: Because of some painful experiences in the past (betrayal, abuse, etc.), there might be a word
or two that brings back unpleasant memories (example: discipline). Eliminate the word or
substitute another word. 081898C
