I am nature's greatest miracle.

Since the beginning of time never has there been another with my mind, my heart, my eyes, my ears, my hands, my hair, my mouth. None that came before, none that live today, and none that come tomorrow can walk and talk and move and think exactly like me. All men are my brothers yet I am different from each. I am a unique creature. 

I am nature's greatest miracle.

Although I am of the animal kingdom, animal rewards alone will not satisfy me. Within me burns a flame, which has been passed from generations uncounted and its heat is a constant irritation¹ to my spirit to become better than I am, and I will. I will fan this flame of dissatisfaction and proclaim（宣告） my uniqueness to the world.

None can duplicate（复制） my brush strokes, none can make my chisel²（凿子） marks, none can duplicate my handwriting, none can produce my child, and, in truth, none has the ability to sell exactly as I. Henceforth, I will capitalize on this difference for it is an asset to be promoted to the fullest.

I am nature's greatest miracle.

Vain attempts to imitate others no longer will I make. Instead will I place my uniqueness on display in the market place. I will proclaim it, yea, I will sell it. I will begin now to accent my differences; hide my similarities. So too will I apply this principle to the goods I sell. Salesman and goods, different from all others, and proud of the difference.

I am a unique creature of nature.

I am rare, and there is value in all rarity; therefore, I am valuable. I am the end product of thousands of years of evolution; therefore, I am better equipped in both mind and body than all the emperors and wise men who preceded me.

But my skills, my mind, my heart, and my body will stagnate³（停滞） , rot, and die lest I put them to good use. I have unlimited⁴ potential. Only a small portion  of my brain do I employ; only a paltry⁵（无价值的） amount of my muscles do I flex⁶. A hundredfold or more can I increase my accomplishments⁷ of yesterday  and this I will do, beginning today.

Nevermore will I be satisfied with yesterday's accomplishments nor will I indulge（沉溺，满足） , anymore, in self-praise for deeds which in reality are too small to even acknowledge. I can accomplish far more than I have, and I will, for why should the miracle  which produced me end with my birth? Why can I not extend that miracle to my deeds of today?
