Introduction: The Miracle of Self-Discipline "There are a thousand excess for failure but never a good reason." -MARK TWAIN
Why are some people more successful than others? Why do some people make more money, live happier lives, and accomplish much int the same number of years than the great majority? What is the real "secret of success?"
Often I begin a seminar with a little exercise. I ask the audience, "How many people here would like to double their income?"
Almost everyone smiles and raises their hands. I then ask, "How many people here would like to lose weight? Get out of debt? Achieve financial independence?"
Again, everyone smiles. some people cheer, and they all raise their hands. Then I say, "Wonderful! These are great goals that everyone has. We all want to make more money, spend more time with our families, be fit and trim, and achieve financial independence.
The first rule of success is simple: Vote yourself off the island!
No more excuses! Do it or don't do it - but don't make excuses. Stop using your incredible brain to think up elaborate rationalizations and justification for not taking action. Co something. Do anything. Get on with it! Repeat to yourself: "If it's to be, it's up to me!"
"Losers make excuses: winners make progress."
