I will seek wisdom. I will choose my friends with care. I am who my friends are. I will choose to associate with people whose lives and lifestyles I admire.
- If I associate with chickens, I will learn to scratch at the ground and squabble over crumbs. If I associate with eagles, I will learn to soar to great heights. I am an eagle. It is my destiny to fly.
I will seek wisdom. I will listen to the counsel of wise men. The words of a wise man are like raindrops on dry ground. They are precious and can be quickly used for immediate results.
Only the blade of grass that catches a raindrop will prosper and grow. The person who ignores wise counsel is like the blade of grass untouched by the rain – soon to wither and die. When I counsel with just myself, I can make decisions only according to what I already know. By counseling with a wise man, I add his knowledge and experience to my own and dramatically increase my success.

Knowing that wisdom waits to be gathered, I will actively search her out.
My past can never be changed, but I can change the future by changing my actions today. I will change my actions today!
- I will train my eyes and ears to read and listen to books and recordings that bring about positive changes in my personal relationships and a greater understanding of my fellowman.
- No longer will I bombard my mind with materials that feed my doubts and fears.
- I will read and listen only to what increases my belief in myself and my future.
