of Happiness in Life and Business

THE DETERMINANT OF
YOUR SUCCESS
Perhaps the most powerful single factor in your financial success is your
beliefs about yourself and money. We call this the Law of Belief.
It says simply this: Whatever you believe, with
feeling, becomes your reality. Whatever you intensely believe becomes your
reality. That we have a tendency to block out any information coming in to us
that is inconsistent with our reality.
WHAT SUCCESSFUL
PEOPLE BELIEVE
What we've discovered is that successful people absolutely believe that they
have the ability to succeed. And they will not entertain, think about, or talk
about the possibilities that they'll fail. They do not even consider the
possibility of failure.
POSITIVE THINKING
VERSUS POSITIVE KNOWING
You always act in a matter consistent with your beliefs. The most important
belief system you can build is a prosperity consciousness where you absolutely
believe that you are going achieve your financial goals.
We call this positive knowing versus positive
thinking. Positive thinking can sometimes be wishing or hoping. But positive
knowing is when you absolutely know that no matter what, you will be successful.
THE FOUNDATION OF
WILLPOWER
Another principle related to your beliefs is willpower. We know that willpower
is essential to any success. Willpower is based on confidence. It's based on
conviction. It's based on faith. It's based on your belief in your ability to
triumph over all obstacles.
And you can develop willpower by persistence,
by working on your goals, by reading the biographies of successful people, by
listening to audio programs, by reading books about people who've achieved
success.
The more information you take into your mind
consistent with success, the more likely it is that you will develop the
willpower to push you through the obstacles and difficulties you will
experience.
BEAT THE ODDS ON
SUCCESS
Remember that success is rare. Only one person in 100 becomes wealthy in the
course of a lifetime. Only 5 percent achieve financial independence.
That means that the odds against you are 19 to
1. The only way that you're going to achieve your financial goals is if you get
really serious. To succeed, you must get serious. You must get busy. You must
get active. You must get going. Remember, everything counts.
RESOLVE TO ACHIEVE
GREATLY
Self-mastery, self-control, self-discipline are essential for anyone who wants
to achieve greatly. And control over your thoughts is the hardest exercise in
self-mastery that you will ever engage in.
See if you can talk and think about only what
you desire and not talk or think about anything that you don't want for 24
hours. Then you'll see what you're really made of. It's a hard thing to do but
with practice, you can reach the point where you are thinking about your goals
and desires most of the time. Then, your whole life will change for the better.
ACTION EXERCISES
Here are two things you can do to build a belief system consistent with the
financial success you desire:
First, continually repeat to yourself the
words, pictures and thoughts consistent with your dreams and goals. Whatever you
repeat often enough, over and over, becomes a new belief.
Second, set a goal for yourself to think and
talk only about the things that you want for the next 24 hours. This will be one
of the hardest things you ever do. But if you can keep your mind on what you
want and off of what you don't want for 24 hours, you can begin to change your
entire future. Visit
