Have the courage to say no. Have the courage to face the truth. Do the right thing because it is right. These are the magic keys to living your life with integrity. I think there is something, more important than believing: Action! The world is full of dreamers, there aren't enough who will move ahead and begin to take concrete steps to actualize their vision. No matter how carefully you plan your goals, they will never be more than pipe dreams unless you pursue them with gusto. Sales are contingent upon the attitude of the salesman - not the attitude of the prospect. Success is achieved and maintained by those who try and keep trying. Truth will always be truth, regardless of lack of understanding, disbelief or ignorance. When you discover your mission, you will feel its demand. It will fill you with enthusiasm and a burning desire to get to work on it. You are a product of your environment. So choose the environment that will best develop you toward your objective. Analyze your life in terms of its environment. Are the things around you helping you toward success - or are they holding you back? Aim for the moon. If you miss, you may hit a star. To solve a problem or to reach a goal, you don't need to know all the answers in advance. But you must have a clear idea of the problem or the goal you want to reach. |
