"First use the Power Approach in small daily situations. Build your strength with the Power Approach. Before long, you will take on major decisions in life using the Power Approach.
"Start today with problems and challenges in your career. Push ahead with the power course of action. Chop through lingering turmoil as you identify, 'This is the problem; here is the definitive solution.' Become calm and confident in the face of the most trying situations. Develop courage and make fearless moves.
"The average person's stagnation-trap stems from deep-rooted feelings and illusions of needing to be led. The Power Approach rises from powerful determination not to be led. Resistance to becoming a self-leader comes from a passive, nonintegrating mode and is the opposite of the Power Approach that comes from an aggressive, integrating mode. The Power Approach provokes emotions that push you to use the great power in your head: to use integrated thinking, take control, and fearlessly lead your own life.
"The Power Approach builds on itself. Every day you will become noticeably more powerful and a stronger self-leader. Turn on this power generator in your mind, starting tomorrow at work. Quickly, you will experience a surge of power. Gradually, a uniquely creative genius will emerge from within your own mind."
"First, I could never quite understand when I was in college why other students would go into the library and study for hours and hours and hours day after day after day. I would see those people studying for a test for many, many hours over several days, and I would sometimes wonder if I were going to flunk the test. For, I hadn't even started studying. But I would shut myself in one of those 6' x 8' cubicles in the library the morning of a test, not having studied at all up to that point. I would close the cubicle door and go into a super-intense mode of concentration, realizing that if I went to the test that moment, I'd flunk it.
"I'd go in this intense mode for maybe two or three hours before a test. I'd study right up to maybe five minutes before the test. I would always do well on the test. And a number of times, I would ace a test through that technique.
"I didn't explicitly realize it back then, but now I know there are two different modes of concentrating. Most people in college are in one mode of basic concentration. They go to the library for days and concentrate for a test. And then there's the other mode of power-concentration.
"When a person is power concentrating, he is all at one time trying to get the whole picture (i.e., the multiple-thought concept) versus others who are getting pieces (i.e., single-thought percepts) one at a time as they study for all those hours in the library. Power-concentration requires much more energy. Furthermore, power-concentration is more than just getting the whole picture. In order to successfully grasp the whole picture, you must get those specifics too, simultaneously. To best understand this, consider the computer programer. He must grasp the whole concept of what the company is after, and he must grasp all the specifics and details. He must really burrow in. He cannot just get what he believes is the whole picture without burrowing into those specifics and knowing every little specific detail and the effect each detail has on the whole.
