Don't sell yourself short. Conquer the crime of self-depreciation. Concentrate on your assets. You're better than you think you are.
More Quotes from David. J. Schwartz, PhD:
But theres another type of poison perhaps a little more insidious thought poison commonly called 'gossip.' Thought poison differs from body poison in two ways. It affects the mind, not the body, and it is more subtle. The person being poisoned usually doesnt know it. Thought-poison is subtle but it accomplishes 'big' things. It reduces the size of our thinking by forcing us to concentrate on petty, unimportant things. It warps and twists our thinking about people because it is based on a distortion of facts, and it creates a guilt feeling in us that shows through when we meet the person weve gossiped about. Thought-poison is 0 percent right thinking it is 100 percent wrong thinking. And contrary to lots of opinion, women have no exclusive franchise on gossip. Every day many men, too, live in a partially poisoned environment.David. J. Schwartz, PhD

It is well to respect the leader. Learn from him. Observe him. Study him. But don't worship him. Believe you can surpass. Believe you can go beyond. Those who harbor the second-best attitude are invariably second-best doers.
David. J. Schwartz, PhD
Remind yourself regularly that you are better than you think you are. Successful people are not superhuman. Success does not require a super-intellect. Nor is there anything mystical about success. And success isn't based on luck. Successful people are just ordinary folks who have developed belief in themselves and what they do. Never yes, never sell yourself short.
David. J. Schwartz, PhD
