17 Principles of Success:-
1. Develop Definiteness of Purpose(When one has thoughtfully defined his personal goal(s) in life, then he can be focusing his energy in pursuing them. He can then create the environment and circumstances to achieve what he want rather than simply drift along with the environment aimlessly or simply accept what others have to offer him.)
2. Establih a Mastermind Alliance(Outstanding success in life had never been achieved by the effort of one man. The Master Mind effort is to get those of like mind, form an alliance, to work actively in a spirit of perfect harmony towards accomplishing of a definite purpose.) -- And the whole purpose of having this blog is to achieve this.
3. Use Applied Faith(Goal that's worth achieving always accompany with great challenges, and temporary defeats along the journey is almost certain. Faith is the "rocket fuel" of human endeavor. Applied Faith is the ability to hold on to the Positive Mental Attitude in mind when the going is tough.)
4. Going The Extra Mile(Make it a habit to contribute more than expected, with no expectation for immediate reward. It insures an increase in personal courage, self-reliance, personal initiative and it builds greater enthusiasm. Sooner or later, the law of compensation will bring its greater rewards.)
5. Assemble A Pleasing Personality(No man is an island. Before one can sell any product or service to others, he has to sell himself first. One should put in the effort in doing self-analysis and improve in this area.)
6. Create Personal Initiative(When one has a definite goal in mind and has the burning desire to achieve it, then opportunities for personal initiative are easy to find. )
7. Build A Positive Mental Attitude(Positive Mental Attitude is the cornerstone for success. The mind is the only thing one can control. In order to achieve the definite purpose of life, one must exercise that control and direct it by using Positive Mental Attitude.)
8. Enforce Self-Discipline(Self-Discipline is the first rule of all success leadership. It is the training which corrects, molds, strengthens, and perfects. When one gets himself under complete control, he then can be his own boss, and it makes discipline from the outside unnecessary. )
9. Control Your Enthusiasm(Enthusiasm is an emotion, the physical counterpart to one's idea. It starts the wheels of the imagination to turning. It is a feeling of confidence and harmony in working towards the definite goal. A man lack of Enthusiasm is like an automobile without gas. )
10. Control Your Concentration or Attention(Where concentration goes, energy flows. Controlled Attention is the act of focusing the mind on a given desire until ways and means for its realization have been worked out and successfully put into operation. Success comes after much concentration.)
11. Think Accurately(The ability to differentiate facts from opinions, and the ability to focus on important facts enable one to make effective decisions in achieving success.)
12. Learn from Adversity and Defeat(Adversity is part of life, and every adversity carries within it the seed of an equivalent or greater benefit. A man's attitude in time of adversity determines much of its eternal effect on his life - for good or ill. All success is based on the experience learn from defeats. No one has failed until he accepts the defeats as failure.)
13. Cooperation(Cooperation is the beginning of all organized effort. True cooperation has no room for selfishness or greed. All achievement is the form of significant and successful cooperation and teamwork between individuals.)
14. Cultivate Creative Vision or Imagination(Creative Vision or Imagination is a demonstration of the use of subconscious mind to tap into the wisdom of the infinite intelligence in getting breakthrough solution for any challenge. And, one way to communicate with the subconscious mind is to repetitively thinking for the solution with the burning desire. Especially, the time just before going to sleep, and the time just wake up from the bed [while the brain is still at Alpha state.])
15. Maintain Sound Health (Various habits affect heal:-
16. Budget Your Time and Money(In our "spaceship earth", there is certain amount of natural resources. Same as individual, one has limited time and money; therefore there is a need to have a system to spend them well.)
17. Use Cosmic "Habitforce".Cosmic "Habitforce" is so obvious and can be overlooked easily. The power is always there regardless if you aware of it or not. They are the physical laws which make our patterns of natural behavior operate in predictable order and regularity. Blending the natural laws of the universe with our own activities helps create the power, that force, that energy which bring harmony, peace of mind, success.
