During
my 6 years plus career as a Behavioral Skills Speaker, Resource
Maximizer and Columnist, I have met many successful people - individuals
who have set ambitious goals and met them.
I have learnt that people who are considered successful by their
own and others' standard have faced many failures in life as well.
I have learnt a lot from successful people's successes and failures
and those of my own.
The only true test of successful intelligence (what it takes
to live a successful life and reach important life goals) is successful
performance.
However, like beauty, success is a relative term. It will be evaluated
differently by different people.
This
evaluation is illustrated below in the form of sayings from various
writers, speakers and experts which can really impact our accepted
wisdom towards success and life.
Golden Nuggets - Thoughts That Inspire!
- Time
is the shortest of your resources, the only thing you cannot buy
more of. Therefore, it is not a matter of getting more time but
of making the best possible use of the time you have.
- Time is
the most democratic of all your resources. Everybody has the same
available time at their disposal every day: 24 hours.
- Time
that passes never returns. That's why it ought to be a crime to
steal other people's time.
- After
the dog, the wastepaper basket is Man's best friend.
- Ignore
problems that solve themselves. Delegate problems that others
can solve. Do yourself what only you can do.
- If you
know what to do you can be successful once. If you know why, you
will always be successful.
- Many would
like eternal life - without even knowing how to spend the next
weekend.
- Planning
does not limit creativity. It creates a foundation for it.
- The art
of personal planning is creating a link between available time
and personal goals.
- Luck occurs
when your expectations and opportunities meet - so your expectations
should be high.
- Everybody
wants to be told they are good - and they will be good if they
are told they are!
- You will
feel better about yourself if you give other people attention.
- Money,
Meaning and Magic are what people want from life.
To conclude:
- Of winners
and losers
A loser says, "You misunderstand me". A winner says, "I didn't
make myself clear".
A loser says, "It's not my fault". A winner says: "Let's correct
that mistake."
A loser emphasizes: "I'm not going to change my mind. A winner
ascertains:
"We obviously see it differently."
