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.

ALWAYS BE PREPARED FOR SUCCESS

ALWAYS BE PREPARED FOR SUCCESS

There is no shortage of opportunity. Everyday you’re presented with countless opportunities to be, or do whatever you desire.

Luck is a matter of preparation meeting opportunity. Don’t miss out on an opportunity because you’re not prepared.

Your preparation is absolutely essential. To achieve success, you must have self discipline. You must increase your knowledge and develop your skills.

You’re always at the right place at the right time when you’re prepared.

LIFE IS MADE UP OF A SERIES OF EXPERIENCES

Each one will make you stronger, even though it may be hard for you to realize it at the time.
Life is your classroom in which you’re being tested, tried, and passed.

Always try to stay in the midst of life and activity. Don’t isolate yourself from the action. Your character develops itself in the stream of life.

The setbacks and hardships you endure actually help you in your march forward to success. The world was built to develop your character.

But, life expects you to make progress in reasonable time. That’s why those third grade school chairs are so small.

LIFE IS WHAT YOU MAKE OF IT

No one can cheat you out of ultimate success but you.
You must choose the thoughts and actions that will lead you on to success.

You must set your own standards.

Nothing meaningful happens by itself.

It will all come your way, once you understand that you have to make it come your way, by your own efforts.

Only you can hold yourself back, or stand in your own way. Only you can help yourself.

Not in time, place or circumstances, but in you lies success.

TRUE SUCCESS DEPENDS ON YOUR ENJOYMENT

TRUE SUCCESS DEPENDS ON YOUR ENJOYMENT

You’ll never achieve real success unless you like what you’re doing.

What you do is more important than how much money you make. How you feel about what you do is more important than what you do.

The more you love what you’re doing, the more successful it will be for you. Don’t set compensation as your goal.

Find the work you like and the compensation will follow.

You don’t pay the price of success, you enjoy the price of success.

YOUR SUCCESS DEPENDS ON USING NOT OPPOSING

YOUR SUCCESS DEPENDS ON USING NOT OPPOSING

The world is primarily constituted on the basis of harmony. Everything works in cooperation with something else.

Personal relationships are the fertile soil from which all advancement, all success, all achievement in real life grows.

Put yourself in another’s place. Only then will you know why they think and do certain things. Once you understand how quickly people will grant your requests when those requests appeal to their self interest, you can have practically anything you go after.

It’s through coopereation not conflict, that you’ll achieve your greatest success.

YOU’RE ALWAYS IN CHARGE OF YOU

YOU’RE ALWAYS IN CHARGE OF YOU
You’re the master of your fate and the captain of your soul.

While your character is formed by circumstances, your own desires can do much to shape those circumstances. Thus, you have the power over the formation of your own character.

Nature is always at work around you. Your character and destiny are her handiwork. She gives you love and hate, jealousy and reverence. You have the power to choose which impulse you will follow.

You can at any time decide to alter the course of your life. No one can EVER take that away from you. The greatest power you possess is the power to choose.

You’re the master of your joys and your sorrows.
