Take more care of your appearance

The above two will make you -feel- better about yourself and feel more successful.

I have been making over my image in the last few months. I found a new reasonably priced jacket, tie pin, cuff links, rings, tie etc. I started wearing them at work even though they don't mind us coming a little casual. I took more care of my hair, started working out again.

Everyone in the office noticed and started telling me how good I looked, how I looked like 'a high powered executive' (literal quote). Most importantly, even the department head and the company president noticed and both of them have started talking to me, whereas before they didn't even really notice me.

Little changes in behavior make a difference also.

Stop saying 'I can't' and start saying 'how can I?'.

Look for ways to add value to everything you do. The more value you add, the more you will get rewarded.

Awesome suggestions. I would add one more:

For anybody who copies music or movies or downloads music for nothing I would recommend stopping that behavior ASAP. By doing so you are focusing on lack and not abundance.

The only reason I mention it is because that sort of thing is rampant in our society and I used to be THAT guy...
