Sure-Fire Success System that Never Fails

Recently, I've come to realize that the most important ingredient that you must have if you want to succeed is a positive attitude or mindset.


Mindset Matters if You Want to Make it Big

While, in the past, I've given grudging acknowledgement to this principle, it wasn't until the last three weeks that I had a revelation that has literally changed my life. What I learned can best be summarized in the following points I found in a book, "Napoleon Hill's Keys to Positive Thinking; 10 Steps to Health, Wealth and Success:"

"The successful person will make the time to do what's important. This includes reading and studying to develop wealth, achieving success in their particular vocation and acquiring good health.
  
The key to making your private time pay off is to challenge yourself. Explore new worlds and philosophies that cast a new light on your situation. There are countless ways to do this. Let's look at four basic ones:

1) Condition your mind.
If you have religious training, you will find it helpful to pray for guidance. Your greatest hope lies in the power of prayer.

2) Make a plan.
It's a good practice to think in terms of yourself, your family, your vocation and whatever else is of interest to you. Have specific objectives and time limits to achieve them. You can have more than one definite purpose as long as it's not in conflict with any other.

3) Question yourself.
Consider the many possibilities at which you can arrive. Then, decide which is most desirable. Write down the questions you asked yourself and your responses in a permanent notebook.

4) Refresh your memory.
It's imperative to check back with yourself regularly, preferably on a daily basis. Make it a point to update your permanent notebook daily."
