Makes small improvements each day

Posted on by

When you get old in life, things get taken from you but that’s part of life

And you only learn that when you start losing stuff

The margin between success and failure is so small, that sometimes success comes down to small inch like improvements. Adjusting how you say that one sentence, or do that one action.

But if you make small improvements day by day, you’ll learn where to add and subtract those inches

Because you know, that those small inches, are the difference between winning and losing.

The guy that’s willing to die to earn that inch, to improve himself and be the best he can be, that’s what living is about.

Focus on yourself and improvement a bit day by day, and live to be your best. That’s what living well is all about.

From the great Tony Robbins

“The secret to success is learning how to use pain and pleasure instead of having pain and pleasure use you. If you do that, you’re in control of your life. If you don’t, life controls you.”

Whenever you think all is lost, you really are very close to succeeding

When it seems impossible, when it seems like nothing is going to work, you are usually just a few millimeters away from making it happen.

How many of you have experienced an instance where you have felt overwhelmed with a whole bunch of urgent to dos? Taking a deep breath and looking at the situation and slowly prioritizing reveals that you really can get through everything. Give that little remaining ounce of energy, and don’t give up.

Speech from the late Napoleon Hill, who has written one of the best known books known to man: Think and Grow Rich.

http://www.amazon.ca/Think-Grow-Rich-Original-Classic/dp/1906465592/ref=tmm_hrd_title_0/178-7799318-4571621

Key Points from his speech:

–          Take power of your mind and direct it to whatever ends you may desire

–          What your mind feeds upon is what your mind attracts to you

–          Have definite of purpose

–          Know what precisely you want in life

2 Envelope Concept

Everyone comes to earth with the equivalent of two envelopes:

–          Riches you may possess  if you take possession of your own mind and direct it to ends of your own choice

  • Sound health
  • Peace of mind
  • A labor of love of your own choice
  • Freedom from fear and worry
  • Positive mental attitude
  • Material riches of your own choice and quantity

–          Penalties if you neglect to take possession of your mind and direct it

  • Ill health
  • Fear and worry
  • Indecision and doubt
  • Frustration and discouragement throughout life
  • Poverty
  • Flock of evils consisting of: Envy, jealously, superstition, greed, anger, hatred

It has always been your choice which envelope you choose.

Action Items

Procure a neat notebook:

–          On page 1 – Clear description of your idea of success

–          On page 2 – Clear statement of what you intend to give in return

Repeat at least 12 times daily

And end with the following statement:

Oh great providence, I ask not what of more riches, but more wisdom, and use wisely the riches I received at birth, to whatever ends I desire.

[Video] Attitude of Success

Got this video link from my friend Daniel, a genius programmer. You can check out his blog here: odotto.tumblr.com

“Love the attitude of the below video. Here are some of the key bullets:

When you want to succeed as much as you want to breath, then you’ll be successful

Most of you want success, but you don’t want it bad enough

If you are going to be successful, you have to give up sleep

You got to want to be successful so bad that you focus so hard you forget to eat

You’ll be successful when you don’t need me to give you a dime, then you’ll be successful”

It’s my belief that dedication will always beat talent. So go out and find what you are passionate about, because only then will you have the courage to dedicate the time to trying to achieve it, and only then will you be able to dedicate the time and energy to do what it is you need to do to achieve it.

Dr. Randy Pausch – love it.

Key takeaways:

1) Go and achieve your childhood dreams, experience is what you get when you don’t get what you want

2) When your doing a bad job and no one points it out to you, that means they’ve given up on you

3) The brick walls are not there to block our way…

This clip was brought to my attention by Winnie Lai of Clinicbook. A great and passionate entrepreneur. Love this clip by Simon Sinek (after the break), because he teaches to ask “why?” first before you do anything.

Most people start a business to make money. While I don’t discount that your business needs to be kept financially afloat, if you really want to build a great company…
