  • What Are Riches?

    Had I but plenty of money, money enough to spare,” wrote Robert Browning.

    And money is the greatest attribute of riches. A universal desire, money is the materialization of riches, the stuff that makes the rest possible.

    Are you looking for financial security? For retirement, for education or leisure?

    Riches are the overflowing abundance of material possessions - houses, cars, boats, furnishings - everything you ever wanted.

    Centuries ago, Horace wrote, “By right means, if you can, but by any means, make money.”

    For many people it is a path towards happiness, a cure-all for worry and peace of mind.

    For others, riches come in the form of satisfaction and personal independence.

    Satisfaction comes from accomplishment in employment or attaining goals. It is that feeling of contentment and confidence from a good task well done.

    Riches are closely linked with success. And with that comes fame and acknowledgment of position.

    Success might be the feeling of well-being from the rewards of good effort. Or the enthusiasm and vitality triggered by recognition.

    Success is how well I enjoy the minutes,” said producer Norman Lear.

    Throughout history, the people who lived with riches often achieved them by hard work, diligence and a belief in themselves.

    For some people, it took courage, genius and stamina.

    But for many others, it took nothing special but the desire to turn dreams into reality.

    Whether you want millions of dollars, recognition as an artist, or personal freedom, you have the ability to make your life as rich as you want.

    Think about what you most desire. It may not be hard cash, but what it can buy.

    Or it may be those feelings of inner satisfaction, from creating something beautiful or strong.

    You may want personal independence from the work week, or freedom to live anywhere you want.

    You may be looking for something meaningful and significant in life - something other than things money can buy.

    Whatever your goals, and however difficult they seem to be to accomplish, you have the ability to become who you want.

    Take a look - can you see yourself surrounded by riches? Picture the world open and in front of you, ready to become the form of your dreams, ready to stage your desires.

    Why then, the world's mine oyster,” wrote Shakespeare, “which I with sword will open.”

  • Who is Successful?

    Many people who achieve fortune in the world are not born rich.

    Every type of person on earth can become successful.

    There are saints and scoundrels; philanthropists and thieves; poets and politicians; young and old. There are no limitations or physical boundaries for success.

    Success comes to those who think about success and strive for it.

    Although many rich financiers at the turn of the century had no formal education, they overcame that and went on to great fame.

    Some people strive towards a single goal from early in life, and often attain that goal while still young. Others are willing to risk new adventures later and still attain success.

    It's never too late to learn,” wrote Malcolm Forbes, the money magnate. “I learned to ride a motorcycle at 50 and fly balloons at 52.”

    Whatever your task, whatever your obstacles, you can be as successful as anyone else. Study the people who accomplished recognition in the areas of your pursuit.

    How did they achieve their goals?

    And don't be afraid you don't have what it takes. As Daniel Webster wrote, ”There is always room at the top.”

  • Forming Conviction

    The single attribute that every successful person has is the one-pointed devotion to attain a goal.

    There in the sunshine are my highest aspirations,” wrote Louisa May Alcott, “I can look up and see their beauty, believe in them, and try to follow where they lead.”

    What are your desires?

    How can you form them into definite goals that you can attain?

    Lawrence Peter wrote, “If you don't know where you're going, you'll probably end up somewhere else.”

    If you don't design your own life plan, chances are you'll fall into someone else's plan. And guess what they may have planned for you? Not much!” -- Jim Rohn

    Maybe you're studying a craft or skill. Perhaps you're caught in a rung of the corporate ladder. Or, you might feel constricted by your family and the environment around you.

    Which star are you reaching for?

    Ours is a world where people don't know what they want and are willing to go through anything to get it,” wrote Don Marquis.

    Take the time to think about your own aspirations. Look inside to find what feels right. Almost everyone entertains the notions of fame and fortune, but put on the costume that fits you. Conviction requires certain qualities of action. You must be sincere and be willing to assume responsibility.

    1. And you need the self-discipline necessary to work towards your goals.
    2. Are you prepared to achieve your dreams?
    3. Can you form their reality in your mind?
    4. Will you devote your entire being to attaining what you want?

  • On Your Own

    Most millionaires are non-conformists. So are the most famous actors and actresses; and the most prominent artists. Writers are known for their individual traits and eccentricities.

    Your convictions and goals are your own business, even when you find help along the path. Mentors often take people under their wings to nourish and teach. Or spiritual guides will show you the path to attainment.

    But you're on your own to achieve.

    Cultivate a sense of justice and an ability to make decisions. Cooperate with everybody and develop your own self-respect. And follow good criticism and advice after you've judged carefully.

    J. Paul Getty said, “I advise young millionaires to be skeptical of advice. They should advise themselves; they should form their own opinions.”

    Lord Byron wrote, “There is rapture on the lonely shore.” And if you attain your goals with poise and sincerity, you'll find warmth and love at the top - not the cold loneliness pictured by the jealous.”

    Put on blinders to negative comments and criticism meant to hurt you. About the people who criticize, Voltaire wrote, “Never having been able to succeed in the world, they took revenge by speaking ill of it.”

  • Seize the Day

    People are judged by what they think and what they say.

    But the true measure of their character is what they do.

    Anyone who has achieved success and fortune in the world has done it by action.

    William Jennings Bryan wrote, “Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice; it is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved.”

    The choice of the path you follow is often put before you as opportunity. “Few people recognize opportunity,” said Cary Grant, ”because it comes disguised as hard work.”

    Don't let opportunities slip past while you're still considering them, and create new ones as you see them.

    Wise people make more opportunities than they find,” said Francis Bacon.

    What opportunities can you act upon?

    Woolworth saw a need for small inexpensive items and opened the chain of stores that grossed billions.

    Wrigley started giving gum away as a bonus from a supplies wagon he sold from, and saw the opportunity to make money from the gum that became in high demand.

    All successful people the world over have found the opportunities for their own special talents and acted upon those ways to achieve.

    Why wait for the time to pass? There is never a better time than now.

    Sometimes,” wrote Lewis Carroll “I believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.”

    Take your own impossible dreams and make them become reality.

  • How they Think

    Thousands of potential millionaires are born every year. And making a million dollars is coming closer to everyone's pocket.

    What advice did the money-makers follow?

    Aristotle Onassis worked eighteen hours a day to maintain his fortune. He started as a welder and aimed for the top. “You have to think money day and night,” he said, “you should even dream about it in your sleep.”

    John D. Rockefeller, Jr., said, “I believe in the dignity of labor, whether with head or hand; that the world owes every person an opportunity to make a living.”

    And J. Paul Getty acknowledged his hard work: “I have no complex about wealth. I have worked hard for my money, producing things people need.”

    Even Proverbs advises: “In all labor there is profit.” Richard Bach, the author of the best selling “Jonathan Livingston Seagull” wrote, “You are never given a wish without also being given the power to make it true. You may have to work for it, however.”

    The Empress of the British Empire, Queen Victoria, admonished, ”We are not interested in the possibilities of defeat.”

  • Do You Have What It Takes?

    There are qualities of endeavor and achievement that are common to many people who make it to the top.

    The following questions are a guideline to self-enterprise and attaining your goals.

      1. Do you prefer to work for yourself than for others? 2. Are you well-informed on current business and political affairs? 3. Are you a leader? 4. Do you take advantage of opportunities? 5. Do you pay attention to what other people say? 6. Can you finish a job even when it is difficult or unpleasant? 7. Are you challenged by problems? 8. Do you have a goal you want to achieve? 9. Do you consider other people? 10. Do you strive to attain? 11. Can you obey commands? 12. Can you bounce back after defeat? 13. Do you believe in yourself? 14. Can you stand by your actions in spite of criticism? 15. Can you follow instructions? 16. Can you respond to the needs of others? 17. Will you give credit to others? 18. Can you make your own decisions? 19. Are you determined? 20. Are you ready for success?

  • Establish a Goal

    What do you want?

    Are you looking for financial security, professional acknowledgment, spiritual attainment?

    Do you want to fit better socially, or become more expressive creatively?

    Establish the goal that's right for you. Then turn that goal from a dream into a desire. You want to realize that goal, not just wish for it.

    Aesop said, “Beware that you do not lose the substance by grabbing at the shadow.”

    Know exactly what you want, then go for it. Don't be tricked by your own procrastination - especially if you want to achieve something artistic.

    The writer Thomas Wolfe wrote, “I had been sustained by that delightful illusion of success which we all have when we dream about the books we are going to write instead of actually doing them. Now I was face to face with it, and suddenly I realized that I had committed my life and my integrity so irrevocably to this struggle that I must conquer now or be destroyed.”

      Can you see what you want? If you want the abundance of material wealth that money provides, what goal will give you that money? Do you want the prestige of owning your own business? What business do you want to begin? Where are the opportunities for you?

    Talk to everyone in the business you want to join. Make friends in the literary or art societies in your area. Read books and articles about your field of endeavor.

    How can you attain your goal?

    If you don't want to work, you have to work to earn enough money so that you don't have to work,” wrote Ogden Nash. And isn't that the way”

    Money makes money; success breeds success. But not always.

    How can you break through those thoughts to help yourself to the rewards?

    Henry David Thoreau wrote, “I have learned this at least by my experiment: that if you advance confidently in the direction of your dreams, and endeavor to live the life which you imagine, you will meet with success.”

    Think big and visualize success.

    • Do you see yourself in a big house?
    • Maybe you picture your artwork hanging in a gallery.
    • Can you feel your book in print and in your hands?
    • How does it feel to be a person of success?

    Believe that you are; believe that it is in your grasp. That's what the others did, and that's how people make it to the top. Then get down to basics. Be precise.

    • Exactly how much money do you want, and by what date?
    • And exactly what are you going to do to earn that money?
    • Be realistic, but give yourself short-term goals.
    • Write it down.

    In six months or one year, you will have how much money. And repeat it until it feels good. Then repeat it twice a day until it swirls in your subconscious, until it becomes your one-pointed goal. This is a very important point…get into your subconscious.

    The goal stands up, the keeper stands up to keep the goal,” wrote A.E. Housman.

  • Keys to Success

    Make people feel at ease.:

    1. They will respond to your needs as you respond to theirs. Share the spotlight.
    2. Give credit to those who deserve it - and to those who strive.
    3. Do not grab praise away from other people.
    4. Have confidence in your own value.
    5. Do not do anything that won't credit your own self-respect.
    6. Follow up your actions as they reflect your own self-worth.
    7. Listen well to others' comments.
    8. Then weigh your own actions.
    9. Cultivate relationships with people who have good and important things to say.
    10. Participate in life.
    11. Be active in business meetings and endeavors; volunteer to be part of organizations and groups.
    12. Social interaction will boost your sense of well-being

    Feel worthy of your own goal.

    • Know that you can attain it and that it is right for you.
    • Grasp your own challenge.
    • Don't give yourself impossible goals, but always reach higher.
    • Relax and be yourself.
    • Each person is different and just as wonderful as the next.
    • Don't be plagued by what you think others think of you.
    • Don't bathe in success - use it.

    Once you achieve your first goal, go on to others. Use the money you earn for the rewards you look for. Then go on to the next endeavor. Be slow to criticize others' achievements. Find out how they did it and learn from them. Never use subterfuge. Don't go behind someone's back.

  • Speak your mind and earn respect.
  • Banish negative thoughts and traits.
  • Restructure your life to exclude bad habits.
  • Believe in yourself and what you are to accomplish.
  • All the power in the world is within you to achieve.

  • Work Towards Your Goals

    To get profit without risk, experience without danger, and reward without work, is as impossible as it is to live without being born,” wrote A.P. Gouthey.

    Every person who has attained something worthwhile has worked for that goal.

    Cary Grant said, “I do believe that people can do practically anything they set out to do if they apply themselves diligently and learn.”

  • Which path is the right way towards your goal?
  • Do you need more education?
  • Do you need a few years experience in your field of business?
  • Maybe you need a teacher or guide to help you practice.

    I have learned that success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached, as by the obstacles which are overcome while trying to succeed,” wrote Booker T. Washington.

    What obstacles are in your way?

    Consider them as easy to pass through as hurdles are to a champion runner. Take each obstacle as a special challenge placed especially for you. Approach it with intelligence and courage, then learn what it has to teach.

    Success is a journey,” said Ben Sweetland, “not a destination.”

    For some, the process of attainment is the attainment itself. They move on, keep growing and expanding. There is no still water at the top.

    The message from the moon is that no problem need any longer be considered insoluble,” wrote Norman Cousins.

    And you can attain anything that seems impossible. If you have a problem that needs to be solved, sit calmly and consider it with a clear mind. Observe all the consequences of the actions - both good and bad.

    Ponder the paths and actions and contemplate the core of the problem. The solution will appear.

    Ask and it shall be given you; seek and ye shall find; knock and it shall be opened to you for everyone who asketh, receiveth. He that seeketh, findeth and to him that knocketh, it shall be opened.”

    Tap the inner self and encourage positive actions.

    With each outgoing breath, release the impossible; at each incoming breath, inhale the attainable. Demand the best of yourself, but don't despair from an overused sense of perfection.

    -What can you learn? -And who can teach you? -Can you attend classes and seminars from universities near home? -Check out books from the libraries and absorb the material. -Find a master and become an apprentice.

    Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty,” said Henry Ford. “Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young.”

    Never stop learning; never stop growing and expanding as a person and in your personal endeavor.

  • Ask Yourself

    As you consider the success you desire, you need to affirm its possibilities and develop the self-confidence necessary to attain the goals.

    Learn to do things well.

    If you know how to do one thing well, you can do everything,” wrote the philosopher Gurdjieff.

    Are you ready for success? Is what you are doing now helping you to achieve your goals? Do you weigh the consequences before making a decision? Is this the best use of your time? Do you cooperate with everyone and help cultivate their best potentials? Are you warm and sincere? Do you have the courage to succeed? Do you have the self-discipline necessary to achieve your goals? Do you have a realistic sense of self-worth? Do you give more than you take? Do you have the courage to fail, and then pick up and try again? Can you assume responsibility without blaming others if things go wrong? Are you strong? Can you be sympathetic to life and its sufferings? Can you say no? Will you follow your convictions and plans to achieve? Do you sincerely want to achieve the goals you have chosen?

  • Taking Responsibility

    The price of greatness is responsibility,” wrote Winston Churchill.

    Are you willing to take the responsibility once you attain the success you desire?

    The deepest personal defeat suffered by human beings is constituted by the difference between what one was capable of becoming and what one has in fact become,” wrote Ashley Montague.

    And the greatest tragedy is to become less than your full potential, using less than the abilities you have to work with.

    Are you waiting for something to happen? Maybe you're waiting for a job offer, or a promotion. Perhaps you're waiting until you get good enough at a craft or skill.

    Or are you waiting for the inspiration of creativity to strike your life?

    It is up to you to take the actions and be responsible for their consequences.

    Our responsibility: every opportunity, an obligation; every possession, a duty,” wrote John D. Rockefeller, Jr.

    Inspire yourself. Read books that will spurn you to action; talk to people who have the vitality you admire.

    How would you like to lead your life? And make the changes necessary to be like that.

    There is nothing permanent except change,” wrote Heraclitus.

    What changes do you want to make? What are you waiting for? _

  • Accomplishments

    What actions will take you closer to your goals?

    1. Decide upon the steps and write them down. 2. Review them until you feel comfortable with those steps. 3. Then repeat them at least once a day, crossing them off as you accomplish them.

    I believe there is no escape from the rule that we must do many, many little things to accomplish even just one big thing,” said James Dupont. “This gives me patience when I need it most.”

    The most rewarding accomplishments are those that take long to achieve and present difficulties.

    It is only through these difficulties that a person can rise above the rest to be the unusual, the outspoken and the well-deserved.

    As if building a kit, follow your own instructions. Decide your best courses of action and achieve their benefits. Whether the steps are small or large, make them achievable and then do them. Do not commit yourself to things that you never intend to do.

    Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there,” said Will Rogers.

    Don't be paralyzed by inaction; rather act upon your own convictions. Set yourself up for rewards. Don't give yourself goals that have no feeling of satisfaction or no monetary rewards.

    If you want to be an artist, be the best and learn from the best. Don't dwell on imperfections or the awkwardness of unpolished skills. If you go into business, do it for profit or reinvestment.

    In business, the earning of profit is something more than an incident of success. It is an essential condition of success. Because the continued absence of profit itself spells failure,” said Justice Brandeis.

    Marchant wrote, “To be a success in business, be daring, be first, be different.”

    Think of ways to achieve the best; formulas to increase productivity or decrease overhead. Profit is your drive.

    Profitability is the sovereign criterion of the enterprise,” wrote Peter Drucker.

    And, profitability is the core of any achievement - whether financial or artistic.

    Once you achieve your goals, think of ways to benefit others.

    Money-getters are the benefactors of our race,” said P.T. Barnum. “To them we are indebted for our institutions of learning, and of art, our academies, colleges and churches.”

    How can you benefit humankind and still keep enough to fulfill your own desires?

  • The Hidden Asset

Not all success can be counted in dollars; not all richness is measured by money.

The great secret of success is to go through life as a person who never gets used up,” said Albert Schweitzer. ”Retire upon yourself and look for the ultimate cause of things inside you.”

Look within yourself for the ultimate inspiration, and follow the true feelings you discover. “One of my favorite methods is to whisper,” said Alfred Hitchcock.

I've discovered the best work is done with sweet reason.” Act upon your own conscience -that guides; that judges your actions and signals your behavior. “Conscience is the inner voice that warns us that someone may be looking,” wrote H.L. Mencken.

Accomplish what you desire; fulfill your inner yearnings. But don't compromise your deepest feelings.

We do our best that we know how at the moment, and if it doesn't turn out, we modify it,” said F.D. Roosevelt.

Follow the paths that life offers you and live the fullest existence you can.

Take a Look

Look at yourself and look at those who have succeeded throughout history.

Do you have what it takes?

Even if you have only a few of the qualities of the other great people, you can achieve your heart's desire.

Reach for the highest, then reach higher. Accomplish your steps one by one on a daily basis, always moving forward, always making progress.

Encourage yourself. Insist that you can succeed and affirm these thoughts daily. Keep a sense of proportion and judge for yourself. Then keep busy at the tasks you've set out to accomplish. What is keeping you?

Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration,” said Albert Einstein.

Find inspiration wherever you can. Talk to people; read about people; learn your business or craft. Believe that you can do it and you will. The only way to dispel the doubt that you can do something is to finish it.

Always be the best you can be. Never fall short from fatigue or lethargy. Don't attempt to do anything that you can't give your all to.

There is no way to inner satisfaction without appealing to the higher consciousness. Search within and without to find the paths that are meant for you and follow them with conviction and a steady heart.

And, you will succeed to become as rich and full as you ever desired.

Harold Ickes wanted the “freedom to live one's life with the window of the soul open to new thoughts, new ideas and new aspirations.”

And Woody Allen looked for a clear path. “If only God would give me some clear sign” he said. “Like making a large deposit in my name at a Swiss bank.”

Finally, Sophie Tucker sums up everyone's worldly outlook: ”I've been rich and I've been poor,” she said. “Rich is better.

Bonus Report: HOW TO DEVELOP A WINNING ATTITUDE

What does it take in our everyday lives to be successful?

In order to evaluate this question it is first necessary to understand what “success” is and what all successful people have in common.

It is probably safe to assume that anyone reading this article wants to be successful. However, only 5% of the population will ever reach their potential for all activities, 95% of the people will never truly be successful. By definition, success is the realization of a worthy deal.

Success is different for every individual. For some people, an annual income of $25,000 would be a success, for another it may be $125,000.

Whatever it may be for you, there are 5 characteristics that you must have in common with other successful people in order to achieve true success.

Goals are the single most important factor in achieving success. Without a realistic goal, how will you ever know when you have reached your success level. All successful people set goals. All goals must be realistic, short term, measurable and obtainable within the bounds of your own perception. As time passes, your goals can always be adjusted upward to reach your ultimate goal of success.

However, if your initial goal is to be worth $1,000,000 by the year end and you are currently only worth $100,000 with an annual income of $50,000 a year and this is November, you most likely will never be able to reach it and therefore, it is unrealistic.

Biting off a job in small portions makes the eventual achievement of the total task seem easier and manageable. All successful people constantly set goals, re-evaluate their goals and scale them upward toward even greater accomplishments.

A positive attitude is the second factor that successful people have in common. I have never met a truly successful person who I would consider a “self made” success that did not have a positive attitude.

These people relate to the world on a positive basis. They always look for the “can do” not the “can not do” side of every situation. “If you think you can or if you think you can't, you're right.”

All successful people truly believe not only in themselves, but in the reality of their goals. A positive attitude is contagious and when it is sincere, the people with whom you come in contact will relate to you and your activities with a vitality and positive attitude that causes a winning, successful environment.

The truth is always best to deal with for several reasons, not the least important of which is that it is always the easiest to remember.

If you are going to be successful, you will not have time, energy and ability to remember untruths, or lies that you have told people.

This consumes valuable energy and detracts from the power needed to run a successful life. The truth is easy to remember and generally, in the long term, easier to deal with.

True winners are always ready to face the truth in situations and handle things as they deal with them on a timely basis and then proceed to get on with the business of running a successful, prosperous life.

Never having to back track to cover up problem areas.

Research and Development in today's society have become extremely important to all major corporations. This is where all new products and ideas evolve.

Successful individuals have always understood this principal on a personal level and they constantly strive to improve their own abilities through such methods as formal educational systems, seminars, reading books, listening to ideas the thoughts of others, and in any manner that presents itself to them.

Successful people truly believe they can improve themselves and constantly strive to seek methods and means that will help them accomplish this task.

They also know that there is a price to pay for this success and the return on investment is sometimes great and sometimes small, but that the return without the investment is always the same “0”.

Thinking is the hardest work there is, which is the probable reason why so few engage in it.” - Henry Ford

Man's ability over all other creatures on this Earth is the ability to think. All successful people use this talent to improve their lives and control their own destiny.

Only you can take the initial step toward the unleashing of the power within your own mind. The power is awesome and at times can be frightening.

However, man has abilities of the mind that many people can not or would not believe.

Anthony Robbins has recently written a book entitled “Unlimited Power” which explains in simple terms the theories of Neuro Linguistic Programming, the power of the mind and how to gain control and use it.

NLP was originally developed by John Grinder and Richard Bandler as a communication system using the central nervous system.

Through this system Mr. Robbins has put forth a complete outline on how to unleash your “performance power” and achieve goals that before you probably felt were impossible.

The first step in using your true mental abilities is understanding what Mr. Robbins refers to as the seven triggering mechanisms that is sure success.

1. Passion

All truly successful people such as Lee Iacocca have a driving force within them that sets them apart from others. A desire, an energy, that gives them the fuel to reach their true potential. This force is a part of them 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It never subsides. Their total existence is sustained for the fulfillment of their goals. The passion within this individual to achieve has been so deeply implanted, that their mental power is driven by this force and will not let them do anything other than achieve.

2. Belief

They can because they think they can”-Virgil. You will only make $100,000 this year if you first believe you can. If you do not believe you can you are telling yourself you want it, but it is truly not obtainable. The truth of life is that man's limits are self imposed by what the mind is given to believe. If you expand your belief of your own abilities, you will also expand your true realm of accomplishment. A man of whom all are aware, lived his life with adversity, but he constantly believed that he COULD achieve.

•Failed in business at age 31 •Was defeated in a legislative race at age 32 •Failed again in business at age 34 •Overcome death of sweetheart at age 35 •Had a nervous breakdown at age 36 •Lost an election at age 38 •Lost a congressional race at age 43 •Lost a congressional race at age 46 •Lost a congressional race at age 48 •Lost a Senatorial race at age 55 •Failed to become Vice President at age 56 •Lost a Senatorial race at age 58 •Was elected President of the United States at age 60

With all the adversity that faced him, President Abraham Lincoln had no reason to continually try other than the fact that he believed it was his destiny and measure of success to accomplish this task.

Man is what he believes” - Anton Checkhov

3. Strategy

A strategy is your game plan of life. The road map you will use to accomplish your goals, ambitions and desires.

Just to believe you can earn $100,000 a year is not enough, you must design a strategy that gives your life direction and navigates you toward success.

The key to strategy is to design a proper strategy to achieve your success without the detours of life, to find the shortest distance between two points.

4. Clarity of Values

Man must first determine which things in life are most valuable to him. He must determine his feeling about such things as patriotism, pride, love, freedom, excellence, ownership and tolerance.

These are values in society, the moral, ethical and fundamental judgments that we, as individuals, deem important.

Without a clear system of values for ourselves, it is impossible to believe in something with a passion that has no value to us.

Once we have established our individual value system we are then able to determine how we can achieve success based on our priority of values.

What must we give up in one hand to accomplish what we desire on the other hand?

Without a value system we can never move forward for we may be trading without increasing our potential for success.

5. Energy

Without the physical vitality to take action, nothing would ever come of our system to this point.

The passion could build, our belief of accomplishment could be overwhelming, we could have the best strategy or map to achieve the ultimate value for our own life, but if not for taking the first step, nothing could ever be accomplished.

Great success cannot be separated from physical, spiritual and mental energy that allows us, compels us, to accomplish the most with what we have to work with.

Physical energy comes from the strength of the body itself fueled by our intake of nourishment. It is therefore important that we fuel our engine with premium fuel (good eating habits), not low grade regular (junk food).

Our spiritual and intellectual energy evolves from our environment and it is therefore important that we assess our own personal environment to maximize the energy that we can obtain.

6. Bonding Power

We have all known people that have exhibited the ability to get along with anyone and everyone. The ability to be a chameleon is truly the ability to connect with and bond with others.

The ability to build rapport. Being able to deal with others as Mr. Robbins says “To effectively communicate, we must realize that we are all different in the way we perceive the world and use this understanding as a guide to our communication with others.” To be able to understand the...

7. Mastery of Communication

To take charge and run your own mind. To learn the techniques of NLP and no longer allow our mind to run our lives, but rather take charge of our own mental abilities and cause them to work for our own accomplishment of success.

There is only one Success - to be able to spend your life in your own way.” - Christopher Morleyce

A man is a success if he gets up in the morning and goes to bed at night and in between does what he wants to do.” - Bob Dylan

NEXT STEP:

Are you exactly where you want to be in your personal life? Your professional career? Have you experienced everything you want to do and see? Do you have everything you need and want? Are you the person you always hoped you'd become? Have you discovered things you wanted to change about your life and then followed through with massive action until you created the desired results? Have you pinpointed and achieved your lifelong goals and dreams?

In short, are you living life on YOUR terms? Very few people are living the life they want to live. They want so much more but don't know how to make it happen.

Perhaps you can relate to some of the following struggles people deal with in their daily lives:

  • Barely enough money to cover the monthly bills with nothing left over for savings or retirement; treating yourself to the finer things in life is out of the question. Feeling stressed, afraid, and guilty about your money troubles.
  • Struggling to change an unhealthy lifestyle. Unhappy with the way you look and feel and afraid of the health risks that may result from being unfit.
  • A job that you don't enjoy, over even worse, hate going to work day after day is more of a struggle than a joy. A lack of excitement about your future within your company and field.
  • Knowing you want to change something about your life (a negative habit, self-destructive behavior, etc.) but unable to make it happen. Feeling helpless and out of control.
  • Having a dream but afraid to do what it takes to achieve it. Not only frustrated about your lack of ability but also guilty that you aren't living up to your potential.
  • A lack of meaning or purpose in your life. Unsure about what you were meant to do or how to pursue your passion. Feeling that the opportunities in life are quickly passing you by. It is said that roughly 95% of people in the world never achieve substantial success and satisfaction in life. This equates to billions and billions of people living far below their potential.
From mothers and fathers to millionaires and CEOs, the majority of people are not living their best life. And dealing with any of the above challenges can create enough tension and worry to make daily living a painful ordeal.

It doesn't have to be this way! Settling for less than you want out of life is absolutely unnecessary.

How would you feel if these things were all true of you and part of your life? When you know the secrets of daily motivational self improvement you can have everything you want in life.

Why do some people seem to get everything they want, while others struggle just to make ends meet?

The answer is simple: You were never taught how to get what you want; you were never given the right information. You learned how to read and write, walk and talk, but when it came to the most important tools of all, you were left without the answers.

It isn't hard to understand why this happens. Only a handful of individuals actually achieve their dreams and goals, meaning only a handful know the answer everyone is looking for.

Ask yourself, “How many people do you know that have everything they want? That are truly happy and successful?”

If you're like most people, you can probably count the number of people on one hand, while the number of those who want more out of life would take quite a bit more.

Successful people, those that enjoy an amazing quality of life and seem to attract the things they want, are different from unsuccessful, unhappy people. They think differently, act differently, and play by an entirely different set of rules from the rest.

They get what they want because they know the motivational self improvement secrets. IT’S TIME to start improving your life Today!
