PERSONAL SUCCESS PRINCIPLES

  1. Passion- The richest people of all time achieved success because they were passionate about what they set out to achieve. For example, Bill Gates was passionate about his vision of having "a computer on every desk and in every home. His passion allowed him to become one of the wealthiest people in the world.

  2. Visualization- Identify what it is that you would like to achieve. Perhaps it's a new home, a new car, or a yacht. Make it something that is tangible! Really get into the feeling of having it in the present tense. Then, open you mind to receive it as if you expected it to be once it arrives.

  3. Purpose (determination)- Without "Purpose" one can easily be led astray from the path that he/she is on. When you are working with purpose, no obstacle can keep you from reaching your goal. In fact, the obstacle becomes 1 of 2 things.... either and insignificant event, or an opportunity to succeed.

  4. Commitment- Committing to your goals and staying on course to reach them is probably the single most important thing you can do. Without commitment everything else in the cycle will fall out of motion.

  5. Faith- You must have an unwavering faith that you WILL accomplish what you have set out to achieve. It is a knowing that you are on the right path, and by staying on the path, you cannot help to achieve success.

  6. Personal Development- As you work on yourself and gain new skills, you become proficient and efficient, which is then coupled with the confidence you require to achieve your goals. Suddenly, you know who you are, the values you represent, and the values which you can provide to others.

BUSINESS SUCCESS PRINCIPLES

  1. Income Producing Activities- Always keep in mind that business does not work for "US". "We" have to work for the business. Only expect to be paid if our efforts are in alignment with what we are worth. Set some time each day to place the action that will place the financial process in motion.

  2. Mastermind With Business Partners and Other Leaders- Through these sessions, you will learn new ideas that can expand business growth. This can be done via, training calls, training events, or national and international conferences. This process is otherwise known as "The Law Of Association." By masterminding with other leaders and self-made millionaires, there a good chance that you will learn the steps that you'll require to match the results.

  3. Cultivate Leadership- Expect others to step into leadership positions. You cannot force someone to achieve success. There will come a time when every human being has the desire to step into their own personal greatness. When that time comes, the individual will take personal responsibility for what they set out to achieve, and will be like a locomotive with a destination. I personally expect every person who I work to step into their own personal greatness in day 1 of opening their business. Anything less is just a hobby.

  4. Be Consistent- Find a daily method of operation that works and stick with it. Do not get distracted by external sources or guidance that will take you away from your business responsibilities. Dedicate a time period each day to run your business activities, and disregard interruptions. Unless there is an emergency at hand, take care of non-business activities during non-business hours.

  5. Be Persistant- Stay focused! Do not let up, and only make decisions that will bring you closer to your goal. Providing you are persistent at attaining the results you seek, you cannot fail. Through this persistance and drive you will be very careful with the decisions you make and will not let outside forces keep you in the rut that you so much desire to get out of.

  6. Set A Goal- Without a goal, you have no destination. In fact, it then becomes just a wish for better things to come. So, decide what it is that you want, and set a date as to when you would like to achieve it. Expect to reach this goal, almost to the point that if you do not achieve it, then something catastrophic will happen.

MINDSET SUCCESS PRINCIPLES

  1. Others First-Always Without Exception- There are 3 reasons people are really looking to start their own business........

a. People want more time freedom to do the things they love. Whether it's spending more time with their wife and children, or just doing more of the things they love, but cannot seem to find the time because of their demanding hours at their place of employment.

b. Something has come up in their life whereas their current income is not sufficient to cover the expenses. Perhaps, it's a house, a new car, college tuition for their children, retirement or some other factor that causes people to seek additional sources of income. Perhaps they are tired of working more hours for their employer and getting less pay as each year goes by.

c. Quite possibly, most people are seeking to live a meaningful, fullfilling, and exhillerating life that cannot be achieved while working for an employer. People are seeking a way to really "LIVE LIFE" before they die. To live the way life is intended, and perhaps to leave behind a legacy through their accomplishments.

Whatever the reason may be. Understand that we are here to assist people and provide them with a solution to their problem.

  1. Be In Service To Others- As we work on ourselves through personal development, we are enhancing our own knowledge and skills. Each day we are getting better, and better. As we approach the crest of the hill, it is our responsibility to give back all that we have learned to the other who are on the same path with us.

Provide your customers and business partners with more "use value" than the "cash value" you are receiving from them.

One of the most important things to keep in mind is this.....

It does not matter who gets to the top of the mountain first. What matters most is how many people we take to the top of the mountain with us.

This is the "true" definition of LEADERSHIP! Apply these principles, and you WILL prosper.
