and I will form HABIT designed to bring the power of my will into action at least once daily.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>EMOTION: \u2014<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Realizing that my emotions are both POSITIVE and negative I will form daily HABITS which will encourage the development of the POSITIVE EMOTIONS, and aid me in converting the negative emotions into some form of useful action.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>REASON: \u2014<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Recognizing that both my positive &amp; negative emotions may be dangerous if they are not controlled and guided to desirable ends, I will submit all my desires, aims and purposes to my faculties of reason, and I will be guided by it in giving expression to these.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>IMAGINATION: \u2014<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Recognizing the need for sound PLANS and IDEAS for the attainment of my desires, I will develop my imagination by calling upon it daily for help in the formation of my plans.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>MEMORY: \u2014<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Recognizing the value of an alert memory, I will encourage mine to become alert by taking care to impress it clearly with all thoughts I wish to recall, and by associating those thoughts with related subjects which I may call to mind frequently.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>SUBCONSCIOUS MIND: \u2014<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Recognizing the influence of my subconscious mind over my power of will, I shall take care to submit to it a clear and definite picture of my CLEAR PURPOSE in life and all minor purposes leading to my major purpose, and I shall keep this picture CONSTANTLY BEFORE my subconscious mind by REPEATING IT DAILY.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>CONSCIENCE: \u2014<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Recognizing that my emotions often err in their over-enthusiasm, and my faculty of reason often is without the warmth of feeling that is necessary to enable me to combine justice with mercy in my judgments, I will encourage my conscience to guide me as to what is right &amp; what is wrong, but I will never set aside the verdicts it renders, no matter what may be the cost of carrying them out.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-19408\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ceo-na.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/o2-426x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"426\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/o2-125x300.jpg 125w, http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/o2-200x481.jpg 200w, http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/o2-400x961.jpg 400w, http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/o2-426x1024.jpg 426w, http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/o2-500x1202.jpg 500w, http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/o2-600x1442.jpg 600w, http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/o2-700x1683.jpg 700w, http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/o2.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 426px) 100vw, 426px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bruce Lee brought together\u00a0ancient ideas with his own of physical  [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":19406,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[51,1069],"tags":[3096,99,1385,1561],"class_list":["post-19405","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-art-culture","category-editors-choice","tag-bruce-lee","tag-ceo","tag-ceo-northam","tag-dragon"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19405","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/15"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19405"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19405\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":28322,"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19405\/revisions\/28322"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19406"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19405"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=19405"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/servidor-mxigen1.com\/ceona-antiguo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=19405"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
