Success Secrets You Can Use Today!Do you want to know the secrets of success? I do hope so, because why would you be on this page otherwise. ;-) Well, success involves working hard (and smart), setting goals, working on yourself and on your relationships with others, etc. But most of all success is determining a goal and working on that goal every day of your life. As you will now see... Success secrets - what I say...I'm not going to give you any success secrets here. (They're mine! Keep off! ;-) ) But I will comment on the so-called 'recipe for success' spelled out by others, on this page. Firstly, Dr. Gary S. Goodman writes a long article on success that quite succinctly says that success comes from working hard. (Can't argue with that, really.) Then fellow website owner, Sarah, gives us some great success ingredients, that include making sure you have the right attitude - muchas gracias, Sarah. :-) But I think Brian Tracy's short video (see immediately below) sums everything up perfectly. It really does. The expression 'relentlessly focussed action' comes to mind, when I watch Brian's video - one of the laws of success, if ever there was one! Of course, I'd love to know your thoughts, too! :-) Success secrets - what Brian Tracy says...This short video on YouTube is deceptively simple. Yes, it's a success secret, one that I seriously think will work if you do exactly what Brian states. I'm going to do it, today (Aug 26, 2008) and report back a year from now. I'm excited! :-) (Well, it's now Aug 25th, 2009 - my, doesn't time fly! - and I've made great progress, step by daily step, doing my #1 goal. And I intend to come back here in another year to tell you a) my progress and b) what my #1 goal was - you may be surprised!) Learn more about Brian Tracy here!... Success secrets - what Sarah Lethbridge says...Now Sarah is a big fan of success, especially when it comes to goal-setting. So much so that she has dedicated a whole website to it, here - http://www.achieve-goal-setting-success.com So, this is what Sarah considers to be 'success secrets'. It's a summary of her success principles, but you get the idea (and you can learn more from her website - see below). So, Sarah's success secrets:

Goodman says...Undoubtedly, you've come across these wealth-building expressions: "Nobody ever got rich working for a living." "Nobody ever got rich working for somebody else." "I'd rather work smarter than harder!" If you were to build these notions into book titles, you just might come up with a monster best-seller like THINK & GROW RICH or THE LAZY MAN'S WAY TO RICHES. But are these notions true? Is striking out on your own the best way to get rich or to strike out? Look at the career of Mr. Eisner, Chairman of The Walt Disney Company. Years ago, he cut a deal for some hefty stock options instead of a large, set salary. And by doing so, one year, he earned over $40 million, which even after taxes, qualified him as "rich." He worked for a living, and worked for somebody else, too, but that didn't stop him from amassing wealth. Lots of other CEO's are also members of the "working rich." I don't know where hacks get the idea that you can just dream your way to success; that lofty goals and self-affirmations will, by themselves, take you from rags to riches. There is a beautiful film that you can check out on video, "Local Hero," about a corporate climber who is sent to Scotland to negotiate oil development rights. He encounters a beachcomber who lives in a shack so small that to enter, you have to climb through a window. This gent, Mr. Knox, actually OWNS the stretch of beach on which his shack sets, and that beach is worth a ton to the interested oil company. But Mr. Knox doesn't want to sell because, as he puts it, "This beach is my living; I work it. Everyone has to work!" Technically, he's rich, and if he'll just say yes to the oil man's offer, he won't have to work. He can be idle. But Knox's wealth isn't the value of his beach, but is found in his attitude, that work is good, proper, and really inescapable. So, if you want an affirmation, perhaps you should choose this one: "The harder I work, the luckier I get." In the meantime, don't be surprised if the next book I write is titled: WORK & GROW RICH! ---------------------------------------------------- Best-selling author of 12 books and more than 750 articles, Dr. Gary S.
