The Tao of Achievement

  • Reflection (Yin): Quiet your mind; take a "helicopter view" of the situation...

  • Action (Yang): Create positive energy; take initiative; turn failures in opportunities.

 

Seeing Life Differently

The secret of winning in life lies in seeing life differently - in its different shades and outcomes. "Life becomes a path that leads to achievements. Winners do not value life as much as what they can do with it. For them life is not a tedious journey from the womb to the tomb. It is a journey about crossing milestones and looking forward to new ones."4

Changing Yourself

The best place to start is to change yourself. If whatever you do doesn't work, you must be flexible - you must change your action plan if the current one does not produce the required results. If you want other people to change, you must be prepared to make the first step yourself. If you cannot change your environment, you should change your attitude.

Focus is Everything

To win, you must have a strong focus. You have limited resources and must use them in the most effective way. What is the best focus you can have?... More

A Win is a Win-Win

Things work out best for those who make the best of the way the things work out... More

The Foundation of Leadership: Achieving Extraordinary Results

By: Brian Tracy

When you take complete responsibility and accept ownership, without making excuses or blaming others, you experience a sense of control that leads to the personal power that is the foundation of charisma. When you look like a winner in every respect, when you have the kind of external image that others admire, you build your charisma. When you develop your character by setting high standards and then disciplining yourself to live consistent with the highest principles you know, you become the kind of person who is admired and respected everywhere. You become the kind of person who radiates charisma to others.

3Ss of Winning in Business

Develop a Clear Vision

The one quality that all leaders have in common is that they have a clear and exciting vision for the future. This is something that only the leader can do. Only the leader can think about the future and plan for the future each day.

Success is 99% Failure

To err is human. If there is no mistake, there is no initiative. Not to admit a mistake or a failure is a sign of weakness.

Remember always the NLP presupposition: "There is no failure, only feedback." Through mistakes to success – that's really what experience means. Mistakes can be your most effective teacher.

"Just like a great building stands on a strong foundation, so does success. And the foundation of success is attitude."... More

Take Risks

The biggest risk is not taking risks. If you venture nothing, you win nothing.

"Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing," says Helen Keller... More Risk Taking Quotes
