THERE IS NO SUCCESS WITHOUT HARDSHIP

THERE IS NO SUCCESS WITHOUT HARDSHIP

The world is so constructed that if you wish to enjoy its pleasures, you must also endure its pains. 

Like it or not, you cannot have one without the other. 

Success is not measured by what you accomplish. It’s measured by the opposition you encounter, and the courage with which you maintain your struggle against the odds. 

You’ll find all things are difficult before they are easy. The greater your obstacles, the more glory in overcoming them. 

So, make up your mind before you start that sacrifice is part of the package. 

No pain, no gain; No thorns, no throne; No cross, no crown. 

You’ve got to go through the negative before you get to the positive.

 

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. 

People with goals succeed because they know where they’re going.

YOU CANNOT FAIL WITH A PLAN

YOU CANNOT FAIL WITH A PLAN
Wanting success isn’t sufficient enough to get it.

You have to ask yourself, “What am I going to do to get the things I want?”

Your problem is how to bridge the gap which exists between where you are now and the goal you intend to reach.

You cannot fail with a definite step by step plan, because each step carries you along to the next step, like a track.

All you need is the plan, the road map, and the courage to press on to your destination.

You cannot get lost on a straight road.

YOU ARE YOUR ENVIRONMENT

YOU ARE YOUR ENVIRONMENT

Always be mindful that you’re a product of your environment. 

So choose an environment that will best develop you toward your objective. 

Analyze your life in terms of your environment. Are the things around you helping you toward your success, or are they holding you back? 

The first step toward getting somewhere is to decide that you’re not going to stay where you are. You’re not a captive of your environment. 

If you don’t like where you are, you can make some changes. You’re not planted permanently in the ground like a tree. Don’t say, “You would, if you could,” start saying, “You will, because you can.” 

When you become a part of anything it becomes a part of you.

THINK IN TERMS OF WHAT THE OTHER PERSON WANTS

THINK IN TERMS OF WHAT THE OTHER PERSON WANTS

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

Your success depends on the support of other people.

You can get anything you want in life if you’re willing to help enough other people get what they want.

The only hurdle between you and what you want to be is the support of others.

You cannot hold a torch to light another’s path without brightening your own.

 

THE POWER TO SUCCEED IS YOURS ALONE

THE POWER TO SUCCEED IS YOURS ALONE

The day you take complete responsibility for yourself, the day you stop making any excuses, that’s the day you start moving down the road to success.

No one else can do it for you. Only you can make it happen. You’re the only one that has to live your life.

Success on any major scale requires you to accept responsibility. It’s up to you to choose the thoughts and action that will lead you to success.

Your life will be what you make of it. Nothing will ever happen by itself. Success will come your way once you realize that you have to make it come your way by your own actions.

The power to succeed is yours alone.

YOUR ASPIRATIONS ARE YOUR POSSIBILITIES

YOUR ASPIRATIONS ARE YOUR POSSIBILITIES

The first ingredient of your success is to dream a great dream.

You must dream big and think big to be big. High expectation always precedes high achievement.

You’re as small as your controlling desires, or as great as your dominant aspirations.

Once your mind stretches to a new idea it will never go back to its original dimensions. If you dream of little goals you can expect little achievement.

Dream of big goals and you’ll win big success.

YOUR SUCCESS IS A MATTER OF EXPECTATION

YOUR SUCCESS IS A MATTER OF EXPECTATION

You must first expect to succeed if you want to succeed.

When you expect good things to happen, strangely enough, they will happen.

Expectation energizes your goals and gives them momentum.

Your life will always respond to your outlook, so set your goals high.

The dreams you choose to believe in will come to be.

You can’t expect to succeed beyond your wildest expectations unless you begin with some pretty wild expectations.

IF YOU EXPECT TO SUCCEED, YOU’LL SUCCEED

IF YOU EXPECT TO SUCCEED, YOU’LL SUCCEED

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. Life responds to your outlook.

If you want to succeed beyond your wildest expectations, you have to begin with some wild expectations.
