I was cleaning some of my old files and came across this quotation called “A Winner’s Creed” that my manager handed to all the agents while I was selling insurance years ago.  These affirmations can apply to any situation in life, not just insurance agents. So think like a winner, feel like a winner and act like a winner.

I am a winner because I think like a winner, prepare like a winner, and perform like a winner.

I am a winner because I set high, but attainable goals, work toward those goals with determination and persistence, and never stop until I reach them.

I am a winner because I am strong enough to say “No!” to those things that would make me less than my best, and say “Yes!” to the challenges and opportunities that will make me grow and improve my life.

I am a winner because total commitment is my constant companion, and personal integrity is my life time mentor.

I am a winner because I am learning to avoid the tempting shortcuts that can lead to disappointment, and the unhealthy habits that could result in defeat.

I am a winner because I have a well-earned confidence in myself, a high regard for my teammates and co-workers, and a healthy respect for those in authority over me.

I am a winner because I have learned to accept criticism, not as a threat, but as an opportunity to examine my attitudes and to improve my skills.

I am a winner because I persevere in the midst of obstacles and fight on in the face of defeat.

I am a winner because I am made in the image and likeness of my Creator, who gave me a burning desire, a measure of talent, and a strong faith to attempt the difficult and to overcome the seemingly impossible.

I am a winner because of my enthusiasm for life, my enjoyment of the present and my trust in the future.
