OPEN YOUR OWN DOOR TO OPPORTUNITY

OPEN YOUR OWN DOOR TO OPPORTUNITY

Success doesn’t come to you. You must go to it.

You don’t need more strength or more ability or greater opportunity.

What you need is to use what you have.

The golden opportunity you’re seeking is in yourself. It’s not in your environment. It’s not in luck or chance or in the help of others.

It’s in you.

There will always be a new opportunity where there is an open mind and a willing hand.

You must make your own opportunities.

The golden opportunity you’re seeking is in yourself. It’s not in your environment. It’s not in luck or chance or in the help of others.

YOU CAN MAKE YOUR DREAMS A REALITY

YOU CAN MAKE YOUR DREAMS A REALITY
You have the power and the opportunity to change your life.
You can make anything you want of it. It’s not difficult, it just takes some effort.
See things as you would have them be instead of as they are. Develop a personal plan that focuses on what you want, not on what you have.
Your imagination will show you how to turn possibility into reality. Visualize your goals and your subconscious will work toward making those mental picture come true.
When you picture yourself as vividly winning, that alone will contribute immeasurably to your success.
Knowing your destination is all you need to get there.

MASTER LIFE DON’T LET IT MASTER YOU

MASTER LIFE DON’T LET IT MASTER YOU

Some people are successful in mastering life, while others permit life to master them.

There is a split in you that is very clear. There is part of you that knows what you should do, and a part of you that does what it feels like doing.

Don’t let passion drive you, let reason hold the reins.

Once you understand these opposing forces warring within you, with this knowledge of the truth: you no longer remain a slave. A clear understanding of this will make you the master of your life.

Resistance is your thoughts transformed into feelings. Change the thoughts that create the resistance, and there is no more resistance.

Are you controlled by your thoughts or are you controlling your thoughts? If you do not conquer self, you will be conquered by self.

If you are ruled by your mind you are a king, if by your body, a slave.

SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE ARE DREAMERS

SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE ARE DREAMERS

Your dreams are your visions of where you’ll be after the battle, your prize at the end of your journey to success. Your goals are the steps you take to finally attain your prize.

Unless you’re willing to work hard and establish some discipline in your life, all of your dreams will be pipe dreams, little mental fantasy trips that will never materialize.

Make concrete steps toward fulfilling your ultimate dream, and start with solid objectives called goals. Your dreams are where you want to go, your goals are how you get there.

The first indispensable step to getting the things you want out of life is this. Decide what you want.

Don’t be afraid to think big and dare to be great. Dreamers are not content with mediocrity. They never dream of going half way.

STAY IN THE GAME IF YOU WANT TO WIN

STAY IN THE GAME IF YOU WANT TO WIN

Taking a risk is often your first necessary step toward success. If you don’t take some risks, you won’t get the chance to succeed.

While you are trying, you are winning. Never get discouraged. Every wrong attempt is another step forward.

People that make no mistakes usually don’t make anything.

Make up your mind not merely to overcome a thousand obstacles, but to win in spite of a thousand defeats.

Your mistakes are stepping stones to success and your installment payments to victory.

You can’t be a winner and be afraid to lose.

YOUR LIFE RESPONDS TO YOUR OUTLOOK

YOUR LIFE RESPONDS TO YOUR OUTLOOK

The dreams you choose to believe in come to be.

When you feel in your innermost being that you will achieve what you set out to do, you open the way for miracles.

Choose to believe something good can happen.

Expecting it to happen energizes your goal and actually gives it momentum.

What you expect to happen, happens.

If you expect to succeed, you’ll succeed.

SUCCESSFUL ACTION IS CUMULATIVE IN RESULTS

SUCCESSFUL ACTION IS CUMULATIVE IN RESULTS

Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out.

Many people take the first step and then stop. Yet, with every additional step you take, you enhance immensely the value of your first step.

All masters of success are chiefly distinguished by their power of adding a second, a third, and perhaps a forth step in a continuous line.

There is no royal road to anything. One thing at a time, all things in succession is the rule of life.

That which grows fast, withers as rapidly. That which grows slowly, endures.

Do not despise the bottom rings in your ascent to greatness.

ALWAYS TRY TO THINK AHEAD

ALWAYS TRY TO THINK AHEAD

When you think ahead of any approaching action you’ll always have the advantage. You’ll be the winner.
Keeping a little ahead of conditions is one of the secrets of business.

The time to repair your roof is when the sun is shining. Try to do things before they need to be done.

Let your advance worrying become advance thinking and planning. Position yourself ahead of time in the best place for you.

When you do what is necessary, all the odds are in your favor. Do the next thing.

YOU CAN GO ANYWHERE WITH A GOAL

YOU CAN GO ANYWHERE WITH A GOAL

A life without purpose is like a ship without a rudder. Goals are dreams that are written down.

The purpose of a goal is to focus your attention. Your mind will reach toward achievement only when it has a goal.

There is no achievement without goals.

Establish a goal worth working for. Your goal will keep you going in tough times.

Always have something ahead of you. Continuously visualize your next step. Keep moving after you achieve your goal and set another.

Momentum is maintained by always having something to look forward to. Constantly give yourself something to work for.

Do what you can do well, and do well whatever you can do and you’ll achieve any goal that you set for yourself.

You can plant your dream with a goal.
