to.” If you are where you are in life right now based on the choices you’ve made, you can make a choice today to be in a different place in life tomorrow. Jim Rohn says, “You can’t change your destination overnight, but you can change your direction overnight,” again, with a choice to do so.
What choices have you made that brought about negative results?
What did you learn from that choice?
What choice can you make today to create positive results?
What choice do you want to make today that will put you in a different place in the future?
SUCCESS PRINCIPLES
There are hundreds of books on success along with the basic success principles. I’ve read many of these books and attended many trainings on the subject. I’m not pretending to be an expert, but I have personally applied these basic principles and have acquired a substantial amount of success in my life. So it is my desire to share my perspective and application of these principles with you. Here is a list of some of the principles we will be discussing and showing examples of their use. The main topic of this book is the first on this list, belief. In my experience, without belief, the other principles will only take you so far.
Belief
Vision
Goal Setting/Planning
Work Ethic
Perseverance
Personal Growth/Live Long Learning (Leaders are Readers)
Affiliations/Building Relationships
Well-Rounded Life (Body, Soul & Spirit)
Communication/Listening Skills
Excellence
Humility
This book will discuss most of these principles through real life stories and application for how to take action on them and implement them into your life. The biggest emphasis of this book in the foundation of success is your belief. Remember, without a solid foundation you cannot build your house of success.
The main story I’m going to share with you is a true life story of success. This is not a Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, Lance Armstrong, or Gandhi type of success story. This is a story about someone just like you. It’s about a guy that believed in himself, utilizing this belief system, along with the basic success principles, to create that ultimate success. This success story is about someone I’ve known my entire life – myself! This story will take you through the ups and downs of my life experience. You will see how my belief and the choices I made along the way helped create my success.
Again, the main point I hope everyone gains from this is the power of belief. I want you to understand that belief is the foundation and starting point toward your success. I want you to realize that everyone including YOU can create ultimate success. To do this you must first believe in yourself, believe it is possible and believe you deserve it. The second thing is you must apply the other proven success principles to your plan and take action. Third, you have to stay the course. You cannot stop short and expect to reach your goals or vision. I don’t golf, but I want to give you a visual example of this idea of stopping short: one hundred percent of every golf putt that is hit short of the hole will not go in. We need to putt it hard enough to go past the hole (set your goal high enough) to have a chance to go in (or achieve your goal). So don’t quit. Don’t stop short of what you desire or deserve.
