Giving to yourself

December 22nd, 2006

Books at Christmas are great gifts. Books about Christmas are not always easy to find. I finished a good one on Thursday. It is Og Mandino’s, The Greatest Salesman In The World. Now I know that does not sound like a Christmas book, but trust me it has a great Christmas twist. I encourage you to pick it up. It is only 104 easy reading pages. 

Mandino is a wonderful storyteller. In this book he weaves ten secrets/principles for life into the story. Here they are: 

1. I will form good habits and become their slave. 

2. I will greet this day with love in my heart. 

3. I will persist until I succeed. 

4. I am nature’s greatest miracle. 

5. I will live this day as if it is my last. 

6. Today I will be master of my emotions. 

7. I will laugh at the world. 

8. Today I will multiply my value a hundredfold. 

9. I will act now. 

10. I will cry out to God. 

I encourage you to purchase the book for yourself. Place it in your stocking. Read it and enjoy. 

Merry Christmas!
