Уверенность в себе

Что вам нужно, чтобы достичь всего, чего вы хотите? Дело в том, что все было бы (1) бесполезным, если бы у нас не было уверенности в себе. В книге (2) под названием «101 способ обрести уверенность в себе» есть история, которая могла бы преподать нам всем (3) впечатляющий урок. Она о бизнесмене, который начинал с (4) успешной компании, но (5) к сожалению, вскоре обанкротился. Он сказал себе: «Я не чувствую, что я (6) действительно потерпел неудачу. Мне удастся занять немного денег, чтобы начать новый бизнес». Но (7) кредиторы приближались к нему. Итак, однажды он сидел на скамейке в парке, (8) подавленный, обхватив голову руками, размышляя, что делать. (9) Внезапно перед ним появился старик.

Выслушав (10) жалобы бизнесмена, старик сказал: «Я думаю, что смогу вам помочь». Он спросил мужчину, как его зовут, выписал чек и сунул ему в руку, сказав: «Возьми эти деньги. Встретимся здесь (11) ровно через год с сегодняшнего дня, и ты сможешь вернуть мне деньги в то же время». Затем он повернулся и (12) исчез так же быстро, как и появился. Бизнесмен увидел в его руке чек на 500 000 долларов;

(13) подписанный Джоном Д. Рокфеллером, тогда одним из самых богатых людей в мире! Он решил положить необналиченный чек в свой сейф. Просто зная, что он там, он получил (14) силы, чтобы придумать, как спасти свой бизнес. С обновленным (15) оптимизмом он выиграл много проектов. Через несколько месяцев он выбрался из долгов и снова начал зарабатывать деньги. Год спустя он (16) вернулся в парк с необналиченным чеком.

В (17) назначенное время появился старик. Но как раз когда бизнесмен собирался вернуть чек и рассказать свою историю успеха, подбежала медсестра и схватила старика. «Надеюсь, он вас не беспокоил», — сказала она. «Он все время сбегает из дома престарелых и говорит людям, что он Джон Д. Рокфеллер. Извините, у него болезнь Альцгеймера». Бизнесмен просто стоял там, (18) изумленный и (19) пораженный. Весь год он покупал и продавал, (20) убежденный, что у него за спиной полмиллиона долларов. Внезапно он понял, что не деньги перевернули его жизнь. Это его новообретенная уверенность в себе дала ему силу добиться успеха.
