1) GOALS
A CONSTENT PLAN FOR SETTING, REARRANGING, EVALUATING, AND
STRENGTHENING THE PURPOSE OF YOUR GOALS.
YOU DON'T WIND UP IN GOOD PLACES BY ACCIDENT.
THERE ARE TWO TO FACE THE FUTURE. WITH APPREHENSION OR WITH ANTICIPATION.
DESIGNING PURPOSE IS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS DESIGNING OBJECT.
PURPOSE IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN OBJECT.
DID YOU ACHIEVE THE GOALS OF YOUR LAST FIVE YEARS?
NOW IS THE TIME TO FIX THE NEXT FIVE YEARS. THE FIVE YEARS WILL SURELY PASS WHERE WILL
YOU BE.
2) A DETAILED MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR YOUR PRESENT
RESOURCES.
THE KEY TO WEALTH IS NOT WHAT YOU EARN BUT WHAT YOU DO WITH
WHAT YOU EARN.
WHAT TO DO WITH WHAT YOU'VE GOT.
HOW TO BECOME FINANCIALLY INDEPENDENT FROM THE RICHEST MAN
IN BABYLON .
LEARN TO LIVE ON 70% OF YOUR NET
INCOME AFTER TAXES.
WHAT DO YOU DO WITH THE REMAINING 30%?
TITHE 10%
PAY LAST 20% TO
RETIRE DEBT.
ONCE DEBTS ARE PAID,
INVEST 10%.
USE 10% AS CAPITAL YOU MANAGE
YOURSELF (START A SIDE BUSINESS - DO A LITTLE BUYING AND SELLING).
3) HAVE A DETAILED
PLAN FOR THE USE OF YOUR TIME.
A GAME PLAN.
MAKE SURE IT’S WRITTEN.
A 90 DAY WRITTEN PLAN.
OPERATE FROM DOCUMENTS NOT FROM THOUGHT.
THE DEATH OF A SALESPERSON IS TO WAKE UP IN THE MORNING AND
SAY WHAT AM I GOING TO DO TODAY?
HAVE AN ACTION PLAN.
GET GOING PLAN.
KNOWLEDGE IS NOT THE WAY TO BE SUCCESSFUL. KNOWLEDGE APPLIED IS THE WAY TO BE SUCCESSFUL. DON'T BE AN ACCUMULATOR.
WEALTH = 20% SKILL + 80% STRATEGY
YOU'VE GOT TO PLOT AND SCHEME TO GET THE MOST OUT OF
LIFE.
A DETAILED PLAN BRINGS ABOUT DISCIPLINE.
4) A CONSISTANT PLAN
FOR THE GATHERING OF KNOWLEDGE.
YOU MUST DELIBERATELY SEARCH FOR IDEAS THAT WILL CHANGE YOUR
LIFE.
YOUR WRITTEN PLAN MUST CONTAIN A CONSISTANT SEARCH FOR
KNOWLEDGE.
GO TO THE BOOKSTORE.
GO TO THE LIBRARY (THE SEATS ARE FREE.)
SUCCESS AND FAILURE IS CONSISTANTLY DEBATING. "WILL HE GO INTO THE LIBRARY?"
FAILURE "NO, HE'LL DRIVE ON
BY." SUCCESS "YES, HE WILL GO
IN."
YOU MUST SEARCH AND LOOK FOR IDEAS. RARELY DOES A GOOD IDEA INTERRUPT YOU.
YOU HAVE TO GO TO CHURCH, CLASSES, BOOKS, SEMINARS AND
LECTURES.
YOU MUST LEARN FROM YOUR OWN EXPERIENCE. LEARN FROM THE DAY. BE LIKE A SPONGE.
REFLECT ON IT, WHEN THE DAY IS OVER.
EXPERIENCE IS COMMODOTY, VALUE, AND CURRENCY.
"BOTH SUCCESS AND FAILURE COMES FROM SMALL LIFE
EXPERIENCES. IT DEPENDS ON WHAT YOU LEARNED
FROM IT AND WHAT YOU DID ABOUT IT."
THINK AND GROW RICH.
DON'T HAVE CASUAL CONVERSATIONS. DON'T BE CASUAL ABOUT THE
DAY.
CASUALNESS BRINGS CASUALTIES.
ECONOMICALLY, SOCIALLY AND PERSONALLY. YOU MUST BE INTENSE ABOUT THE DAY. ABOUT BOTH THE POSITIVES AND NEGATIVES.
KEEP A JOURNAL.
ESTABLISH A LIBRARY.
5) A CONSTANT ASSOCIATION WITH PEOPLE WHO HAVE A COMMON INTEREST IN
PROGRESS SUCCESS, IDEAS AND PHILOSOPHY.
KEY PHRASE FOR THE
DAY: NEVER MISTAKE THE POWER OF
INFLUENCE.
IF YOU WANT TO BE SUCCESSFUL, YOU'VE GOT TO GET AROUND THE
RIGHT PEOPLE.
WHERE DO YOU GO WEEKLY FOR YOUR INTELLECTUAL FEAST?
WHERE YOU LIVE AND WHO YOU'RE AROUND DOES MATTER.
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A PLAN FOR ASSOCIATION OF PEOPLE WHO
BELIEVE IN IDEAS AND PROGRESS AND PHILOSOPHY AND SELF-DEVELOPMENT AND POSITIVE
THINKING AND ALL OF THE SPIRITUAL APPLICATIONS OF OUR LIFE.
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THAT TYPE OF INFLUENCE. BECAUSE IF YOU
DON'T YOU WILL WIND UP WHERE YOU DON'T WANT TO BE,
WEARING WHAT DON'T WANT TO WEAR, DRIVING WHAT YOU DON'T WANT
TO DRIVE AND MAYBE DOING WHAT YOU DON'T WANT TO DO.
NEVER CEASE DEVELOPING SKILLS - NO MATTER WHAT AGE.
THE KEY TO THE GOOD LIFE IS PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT.
WHAT YOU BECOME IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN WHAT YOU GET.
THE MAJOR QUESTION IN LIFE IS NOT WHAT ARE YOU GETTING BUT
WHAT ARE YOU BECOMING.
WHEN TAKING A JOB DON'T ASK WHAT YOU WILL GET BUT WHAT WILL
YOU BECOME.
THE KEY TO THE GOOD LIFE IS PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT.
DEVELOP ALL OF YOUR SKILLS.
(LEADERSHIP, LANGUAGE, COURTEOUSY, DIPLOMACY)
7) A CONSISTANT PLAN
FOR FIGURING WAYS TO LIVE UNIQUELY. LIFESTYLE
CHALLENGE: HOW TO
HAPPY WITH WHAT YOU'VE GOT WHILE YOU PURSUE WHAT YOU WANT.
FIGURE WAYS TO LIVE UNIQUELY WITH WHAT YOU ALREADY
HAVE.
TIP = TO INSURE PROMPTNESS, GIVE IT UP FRONT. DON'T TAKE A CHANCE ON POOR SERVICE.
