Have clear focused objectives in LIFE to move ahead

Dear Friends,

If you don't know what you want from LIFE, what do you think, you will get?

The great majority of people in the world drift through life, never realizing that their future will be the one they create for themselves. The minority who achieve great success are people who know what they want and have a plan for realizing their objectives. They know what they want and how they are going to get it.

Your goals should be specific, they should be measurable, they should have a deadline for their achievement, and they should be divided into manageable pieces. Know exactly what you plan to achieve, when you plan to achieve it, and how. Review your progress regularly, correct your course when necessary, and never, never give up.

If you are ever to achieve noteworthy success in your life, you must be willing to stand apart from the crowd.

Success is something that is achieved by the minority, not the majority, of people. You will also discover as you climb the ladder of success that there are many who, out of jealousy or envy, will belittle your achievements. Nevertheless, if you have the courage of your convictions, nothing can deter you from your course.

You develop confidence in your beliefs by doing your own thinking and by constantly testing and revising your knowledge.

Use W. Clement Stone's R2A2 Principle to Recognize and Relate, Assimilate and Apply information from any field to help solve your problems and direct your thinking.

The ThinkIng Fruit

Dear Friends,

No one could ride a Horse if the Horse discovered its real strength. The same applies for people as well.

We all know that horses are massive, gentle creatures who are by far larger and stronger than men and women who handle them, yet they docilely obey the commands they are given. It doesn’t seem logical that a large, powerful animal would
allow itself to be mastered by a human being, yet we have been able to use
our intelligence to dominate the animal kingdom.

The learning out here is we can use these same forces to allow the positive side of ourself to dominate the negative. A Positive mental attitude allows us to tap the source of great power that
resides within us, enabling us to accomplish things we never before believed were possible.
