The possibility of new business! There are a lot of ATTITUDES that can come together to make this happen . . . But one of mine that I underscore again and again is to: "Live each day with a Do it Now! attitude." I have learned both personally and from study that success doesn't … [Read more...]

Learn From Failure and Confirm with Success
By Chris Widener Most people think that failure is bad and success is good. I want to help you change your thinking about that if you fall into that category. I will give you that failure isn’t fun and success is, but I think the following is true:Both failure and success are good… if you know what their specific purpose is. Of course we know that success is good, but why? Success is good because it confirms things for us. Success confirms our plans. Success confirms our … [Read more...]

Humility is Tremendous
I know no man who feels fully qualified to speak as an expert on "leadership". In fact, it seems that those who appear to be the most qualified are often the most reluctant. Knowing that I am a student of the word, rather than an authority, I think my attitude toward what I'm about to say can best be described in the story of file young minister preparing to give his first sermon. As he read and observed, he could see so clearly everyone's mistakes, and how simple it would be to set everyone … [Read more...]
Change: Embrace It or Resist It
If your company is going to stay in business, it has to change, and that can be scary. For many people, change is more threatening than challenging. They see it as the destroyer of what is familiar and comfortable rather than the creator of what is new and exciting. Most people, and organizations, would rather be comfortable than excellent. But these days, if you don't change, you stagnate and die. We must implant change in the corporate culture. As a businessman myself, and as an … [Read more...]
Personality Trait To Guarantee Success
If you were to choose just one part of your personality to develop that would virtually guarantee your success, I'd like to suggest that you place persistence at the top of your list. Napoleon Hill, in his classic Think and Grow Rich felt so strongly about this subject, he devoted an entire chapter to it. Hill suggested, "There may be no heroic connotation to the word persistence but the quality is to your character what carbon is to steel." Think about it. If you took a quick mental … [Read more...]

Persuaders are Tremendous
All our lives we encounter persuaders. Those who were successful are largely responsible for the way we are. Because some of us are exposed to some positive persuaders we are drawn to become positive persuaders. I believe all successful persuaders are a result of having been successfully persuaded at some time in their lives. What a strange world it would be if there were no persuaders. Life is one continuous series of persuasions. At home it is the parent persuading the child, the child … [Read more...]
The Four Universal Principles That Can Bring You Uncommon Success
I talk a lot about having a particular mind set when working on your business. It's the same wealth mind set I learned from my mentor, Bob Proctor. Some of you have seen Bob's stick figure drawings that show how we get the results we do in our lives. Essentially, your thoughts become an idea. That idea causes a particular emotion. The emotion alters your vibration, and the vibration is expressed through action. The actions create the results that show up in your condition, circumstance, and … [Read more...]
The Power of Your Beliefs
By Lisa Jimenez Your beliefs are the driving force behind your behaviors. Beliefs send powerful messages to your brain that affect your actions (and their outcome) in either a positive or negative way. Your beliefs will cause you to do one of two things: Be fearful and RETREAT, or Be empowered and ACT! That's how powerful your beliefs are. Your beliefs about failure, risk-taking, and success will either cause you to repel success, or act and attract it to you. Success takes two … [Read more...]
Secrets of Successful Teams
By Chris Widener To be a success is not always to be a success individually. In fact, most of the time we achieve our successes as part of a team. That is why I want to devote this issue to the secrets of successful team. We are all part of teams. Our family is a team. Our place of work is a team. The community groups we belong to are teams. Sometimes we are the team leader or “coach,” while other times we fulfill the role of follower, or “player.” It is so important … [Read more...]

Accentuating the Positive
It's been estimated that we each have upwards of 50,000 thoughts per day. How many of yours are negative? Sometimes you have to do a mental spring cleaning to get rid of those negative ones that have become ingrained attitudes. Stopping self-destructive thoughts is like stopping any other bad habit-it takes time and effort. Among the most effective ways to do this are visualization and affirmations. Affirmations are positive statements about yourself that you repeat over and over in your head … [Read more...]
Einstein’s Formula for Success
Albert Einstein had a formula for success. Can you believe that? One of the greatest minds of all time developed a math formula for success! I suggest you read this carefully -- this may be the most important math equation that you will ever see. Einstein said, 'If A equals success, then the formula is: A=X+Y+Z. X is work. Y is play. Z is keep your mouth shut." Einstein no doubt had an excellent sense of humor. Let's look at the 3 variables in this equation. They are: 1. Work 2. … [Read more...]

Using real life stories from his own life, and those of others, motivational speaker Willie Jolley shares basic success principles that can make the difference … [Read more...]

As We Sow, So Shall We Harvest
Denis Waitley Our true rewards in life will depend on the quality and amount of contribution we make. From the Scriptures, to science, to psychology, to business, the documentation is the same. “As we sow, we reap.’ Life is an unfailing boomerang. What we throw out, will come back full circle. The way we can build self-reliance is to recognize the number of alternative choices we have in a free society. And for every choice we make, there is a consequence or reward of that decision that … [Read more...]

Getting Over Today’s Success
In my office, I have a sign that says, "Yesterday ended last night." It's a great sign because it helps me keep our company's success in perspective.

Overcoming Self-Limiting Beliefs
The worst beliefs you can have are "Self limiting beliefs." These exist whenever you believe yourself to be limited in some way.

You may have fallen into the common trap of selling yourself short and settling for far less than you are truly capable of. These self-limiting beliefs act like brakes on your potential.
