Believe in v<iursclf if you want to suc- cied. Ab a worker, a friend, a leader, | you need a cinnbination nf confidence and sincerity such as comes only from belief in jourtclf.
Rut—and this is a ([uestion which few of us stop to ask ourselves—WHY should you believe in yourself? Have you that wbich justifies confidence?
Are >oH really skilled in your work? Can you go ahead and make a huge success at it, amassing wealth, respect anil power as you go?
Can you really make friends ? IJaVe you a love for your fellows, a charm, an attraction, a power to give and to gel friendship? Or arc jour friends merely superficial acquaintances, spending £ pleasant hour whh you, but not expect¬ ing or intending to do more?
Have you really qualities of leader¬ ship^ Have you knowledge of where yon want to go, will to make decisions promptly and abide by them bravely Ha\c you courage and loyalty and the power to inspire these qualities in others?

.¦\nd wilh knowledge comes change, such improvements as you want, such growth as you feel necessary.
You can dccci\e your.self more cisilv, sometimes, than you can deceive others. Ynu can lead yourself astray into the paths of failure. You can weaken your own control over late, over the world outside and over your spirit from within.
Self knowledge—self control—self ci«ifideiiee These arc the steps toward external success, which merely indicates whal is going on within.
But one warning is necessary. .Sclf- kiiowledf!rc nieans tbat you realize your possibilities, your proper sphere. If you are a born husiness man, you should not try lo be a poet or a general—you will probably fail iu either of these attempts. It'>ou are blessed wilh gifts of leader¬ ship, of w^orking with and for other people, you cannot easily or successfully turn into the field of artistic creation. Know yourself—know your strength a^id wc'dtiiess,  your pr<iper  splicrc.
Ihen, knowing yourself, you can use your best powers in the best way. Then you h.i\'e confidence, based on fads, and external success will be yours together with happiness in your own heart.
Then you can believe iu yourself, and I others will believe with you.
