The Ultimate Formula for Success
The Ultimate Formula for Success
While some people sit around wishing for a better life, there are a few who will go out and create exactly what they want. Success isn't a magical or mystical experience. Success is created by applying specific principles that have worked for thousands of years and still apply today.
If you're looking for the "Secret," give up your search.
If you're looking for a magical word, phrase, or thought, give up your search.
If you're looking for a good luck charm, give up your search.
If you're looking for a process to increase your success and overall prosperity-read on.
If you've studied success to the degree I have (over 1,500 self made millionaires and over 1,000 historical successful people) you'd agree, all of these people knew what I'm about to share with you.
Success in life is based upon sound principles and guidelines. If followed, these processes will work for EVERYONE! If you don't follow them, no matter what you do, you won't succeed past your current level of life, business, or career.
To succeed at anything in life, a person must do the following:
- Decide on what they want.
- Get a clear understanding of why they want it.
- Undertake a learning process to acquire the necessary knowledge. There is always a learning process for greater success.
- Speak to as many people as possible who have succeeded at what you want.
- Create a plan of action based upon all of the above.
- Make a clear distinction of the results you want to achieve, acquire, or possess when you accomplish it.
- Have the courage to continuously exhaust everything within your current capabilities to move you closer to your results-daily. Even if you don't have the means to complete your full plan of action, do whatever you can with whatever you've got.
- Become obsessed with your intention.
That's it.
If you reread the above instructions carefully, cherishing each word, you'll discover the power to accomplish anything you desire.
If anyone can show me a different way to succeed, please write to me, I'll pay you large sums of money, write a book, programs, and seminars to share your information with the masses. Unfortunately, nothing else exists. Well, almost nothing else...
You need to have a set pattern for getting things done. That's where these weekly newsletters come in handy. Also, all the books, programs, and trainings I wrote are set patterns to take you on the shortest route for success.
If you don't have the things in life you want, it has nothing to do with luck or intelligence. If you don't have what you want in life, it's because you don't know what to do. Many good hearted people will die never learning what to do. What are you going to do?
I would suggest apply the exercise shared with you today and learn from my work (books, programs, and trainings) or someone else's, but get into a learning process-Do It Now!
So many people complain today, and are planning on doing something about it tomorrow, and yet never get around to it. The only difference between a success and a failure is the successful person decides what is wanted and jumps in to life to make it happen. The average person will ponder their life away in "thinking about doing something better."
I encourage you to get the success momentum moving for your life. Don't worry about the economy. Remember, more millionaires were created between 1930 and 1940, than any other decade in history per capita in the U.S.
While others are waiting for their ship to come in, I encourage you to jump in and swim out to it. Why waste another day-get your life, business, and career moving-just as the champions do. Any one who has experienced success will tell you, "Luck had nothing to do with it."
Wow! That was a fun Five Minute Mental Break. Until next time, I am
In Loving Service,
Dr. Michael J. Duckett

Leanne Hoagland-SmithAre your sales where you want them to be? Will you be one of the few who achieves sales or business success or one of the many who have failed to change? Are you tired of being told you are like everyone else? Then you may find my first book on sales of interest. Be the Red Jacket in the Sea of Gray Suits, The Keys to Unlocking Sales available at Amazon or at http://www.processspecialist.com/red-jacket.htm. This book is a reflection of my no-nonsense approach to improving sales to overall business results. If you are truly committed to making sustainable changes, then I can help you secure a positive return on your investment because I focus on executable solutions not telling you the problems you already know you have. From training to corporate (group) coaching to executive one on one coaching, my approach is to assess, create awareness, build a goal driven action plan and then execute. The bottom line question is "Not do you or your employees know it, but do you or they want to do it?" Please call for a free strategy session at 219.759.5601. - Visit Leanne Hoagland-Smith's Website |
