  If you Thinkyou are beaten, you are If you Think you dare not, you don’t, If you like to win, but you Think you can’t It is almost certain you won’t. If you Think you’ll lose, you're lost, for out of the world we find, Success begins with a fellow’s will, Its all in the state of mind. If you Think you are outclassed, you are, You’ve got to Think high to rise, You’ve got to be sure of yourself before, You can ever win a prize. Life’s battles don’t always go to the stronger or faster man, but soon or late the man who wins Is the man WHO THINKS HE CAN! “Thinking” by Walter D Wintle

  TOP 10 TRAITSof HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE - That You Can Learn! - by Philip Humbert Start now! These traits work together in combination, giving repeatedly successful people a huge advantage. Because they are insatiable learners, they can respond wisely to change. Because their personal relationships are strong, they are good advisors, and a reserve of goodwill when things go bad. And finally, none of these traits are genetic! They can be learned! They are free and highly skilled, which you can use by learning from them.

  1. They workhard! Yes, they play hard, too! They get up early, they rarely complain, they expect performance from others, but they expect extraordinary performance from themselves. Repeated, high-level success starts with a recognition that hard work pays off.

  2. They areincredibly curious and eager to learn They study, ask questions and read - constantly! An interesting point, however: While most of them did well in school, the difference is that they apply or take advantage of what they learn. Repeated success is not about memorizing facts, it’s about being able to take information and create, build, or apply it in new and important ways. Successful people want to learn everything about everything!

  3. They network Theyknow lots of people, and they know lots of different kinds of people. They listen to friends, neighbors, co-workers and bartenders. They don’t have to be “the life of the party”, in fact many are quiet, even shy, but they value people and they value relationships. Successful people have a rolodex full of people who value their friendship and return their calls.

  4. They workon themselves and never quit! While the “over-night wonders” become arrogant and quickly disappear, really successful people work on their personality, their leadership skills, management skills, and every other detail of life. When a relationship or business deal goes sour, they assume they can learn from it and they expect to do better next time. Successful people don’t tolerate flaws; they fix them!

  5. They areextraordinarily creative They go around asking, “Why not?” They see new combinations, new possibilities, new opportunities and challenges where others see problems or limitations. They wake up in the middle of the night yelling, “I’ve got it!” They ask for advice, try things out, consult experts and amateurs, always looking for a better, faster, cheaper solution. Successful people create stuff!

  6. They areself-reliant and take responsibility Incredibly successful people don’t worry about blame, and they don’t waste time complaining. They make decisions and move on. Sometimes they are criticized for taking this to extremes - Jimmy Carter carried his own briefcase and a President “shouldn’t” do that! Extremely successful people take the initiative and accept the responsibilities of success.

  7. They areusually relaxed and keep their perspective Even in times of stress or turmoil, highly successful people keep their balance, they know the value of timing, humor, and patience. They rarely panic or make decisions on impulse. Unusually successful people breath easily, ask the right questions, and make sound decisions, even in a crisis.
• 11.
  8. Extremely successfulpeople live in the present moment They know that “Now” is the only time they can control. They have a “gift” for looking people in the eye, listening to what is being said, enjoying a meal or fine wine, music or playing with a child. They never seem rushed, and they get a lot done! They take full advantage of each day. Successful people don’t waste time, they use it!
• 12.
  9. They “lookover the horizon” to see the future They observe trends, notice changes, see shifts, and hear the nuances that others miss. A basketball player wearing Nikes is trivial, the neighbor kid wearing them is interesting, your own teenager demanding them is an investment opportunity! Extremely successful people live in the present, with one eye on the future!

  10. Repeatedly successfulpeople respond instantly! When an investment isn’t working out, they sell. When they see an opportunity, they make the call. If an important relationship is cooling down, they take time to renew it. When technology or a new competitor or a change in the economic situation requires an adjustment, they are the first and quickest to respond.

  Questions you maylike to ask Yourself • Have you ever wondered what separates people who think bigger from people who set their bar low? • What makes one person accept low standards and another person constantly raise them? • Why one person strives to build an international organization affecting the lives of millions of people, while another person is content working her entire life as a clerk? ( Not that there is anything wrong with being a clerk?) • Why does one person challenge herself to run marathons, train her body and get fitter, while another is happy living a sedentary, un healthy lifestyle? • What drives a person who’s optimizing every single aspect of her life and what causes another person to maintain the status quo? • You can say, “ Well, the answer is simple enough – one person is ambitious, while the other one is not.” But what exactly causes it? And most importantly – how do you become more ambitious and Think Bigger? Is it some thing you’re born with and can’t change it, or is something over which you have control?

  What makes youAmbitious? 1. Things and People who surround you influence how ambitious you are. Reading books and surrounding yourself with other ambitious people are two of the most effective ways to light a fire in your belly. 2. Negative stimuli are more powerful at discouraging you than words of encouragement are at motivating you. Consequently, its crucial to avoid or eliminate from your life people whose behaviors and opinions put you down. 3. Physical wellness is one of the keys of people who think big. If you don’t have enough energy, you won’t have enough motivation to put your plans into action. Demand from yourself the best – both physically and mentally. 4. A sense of urgency is necessary if you want to act on your goals now instead of “someday”. Successful people don’t have time for small thinking because they want to make the most out of their time on earth. 5. You can’t focus on achieving your full potential if you lack the more basic needs in your life such as a sense of belongingness and esteem. If you suffer from shyness, social anxiety, or depression, your plan of action should start with fixing these issues.

  What’s Your Why( Or Who)? 1. Big achievement are impossible without strong, internal motivation. 2. Intrinsic motivators like fulfillment, enjoyment and contribution are much more powerful than extrinsic motivators like money, fame or power. If you want to get fired up to work on your goals, discover a reason that comes from within you – not the pursuit of status or money. 3. If your goal can’t be achieved without making a lot of money, tie it to the emotions you’ll get from your purchase, and not the purchase itself. 4. Prosocial motivation ( the desire to help others) is a more powerful motivator than intrinsic motivation. Consider adding a “Who” to your “Why”. 5. When writing down your vision, make it as detailed as possible by using different senses and perspectives. It has to be so good that you can’t wait to act on your goals. 6. The purpose of having a written vision is to make it easier to think about it every single morning. The way you wake up will affect your entire day, so make it count and develop your own empowering morning routine. 7. Your mindset is paramount to success. If you don’t have the proper mindset, you won’t achieve your goals. Empower yourself by visualizing your outcome and anchoring positive states. 8. Your life is the sum of your rituals. Successful people have completely different rituals than complacent individuals. Change your rituals to change your life.

  The Art ofFocus Big goals can only be achieved with sustained concentration and focus on the most important aspects. All of the unessential things should be set aside because they take up valuable time without contributing much to the end result. Jeff Bezos once said, “We have had three big ideas at Amazon that we have stuck with for 18 years, and they are the reason we are successful: • Put the customer first • Invent • And Be Patient While there are surely much more than just three reasons why Amazon became so successful, there’s no arguing that its Bezos’ focus on the essence that made him so successful. You need to learn how to focus for three reasons: 1. To Motivate yourself to work on your big goal. If you don’t break it down into smaller parts which affect the outcome the most, it might sound impossible to achieve. 2. To improve your performance. The 80/20 rule applies to every single area of life. Most of the output will always be produced by just a few key factors. 3. To accomplish your take instead of straying off the path. If you don’t know how to focus, distractions will lead you in a different direction you might not necessarily want to take.

  The key tothinking bigger is changing your mindset. You can learn all the little tricks you want, but if you don’t change your mind, achievement won’t follow. Make it a habit to pay close attention to your thoughts and limiting beliefs. This process will help you filter negativity that prevents you from setting bolder goals and believing in yourself. WHAT BIG GOAL ARE YOU GOING TO WORK ON NOW?
