You will always be compensated in life in direct proportion  to the value of your contributions. If you want to increase the size of your rewards, you must increase the quality and quantity of your result. If you want to get more out you have to put more in. (Ralph W. Emerson) Your success in life will be in direct proportion to what you do after you do what you are expected to do  "I will do far more than what is expected of me, I will go the extra mile  and do more than I am paid for ". Get up a little, work a little harder, and stay a little later. Move faster from task to task, and here is what will always happen. The faster you move, the more experience you get. The more experience you get, the better you get at your job, the better you get at your job, the better result you get in the same period of time. By moving faster and doing more than expected you will shift into  the fast track in your carer and begin moving ahead . In each case, there is only...

Today, perhaps the most important factor affecting your life is the speed of change. We are living in an age where change is taking place at a faster rate than ever before in human history, the rate of change is increasing year by year. Change today is not only faster, but it is also discontinous not following a straight line but starting, stopping and moving in unpredictable directions. Change is coming at us from all sides in and so many different ways that it is often impossible to anticipate often forcing us to scrap our very best plans and ideas overnight as the result of a completely  new, and unexpected development coming from a new and unexpectedly direction. As a result we have to remain flexible in our thinking  and in our possible courses of action. Change causes enormous stress for people who are fixed or rigid in their belief about how things "should be". They fail in love with what they are doing, with their current methods and process, and are unwilling...

Casualyness brings casualties. If you don't have a clear idea of what you want, you end up getting something else. Single people should sit down and write out a complete description of their ideal person, including every single quality and characteristics that they would like in their soulmate to have. Be clear about age, temperament, personality, interests, value background, sense of humour, level of ambition etc When I have finally decided that a result is worth getting, I go ahead on it and make trial after trial until it becomes.(Thomas Edison)

Purpose:   Seeking and recognizing opportunities to serve  others is your starting point. Start by figuring out whom you work for. Is it your company? Your manager? Your boss? It’s none of these. Your job, whatever it is, is about providing a product or service to other people for their benefit. You work for your customer. Joy and success will come when you know that you have helped someone else out. Sit down and write out your goals. Are they about you? Or are they focused of serving others. Preparation:  Be the best you can be! Read everything you can. Learn from others. Learn something new every day. Keep an open mind. The time to prepare is before your opportunity comes. Once that opportunity has presented itself, it’s too late to prepare. People:  Surround yourself with good people. Your performance and your reputation are most often determined by the people with whom you have aligned your life. Your bosses, co-workers, subordinates, mentors, coaches, teammat...

All successful people work from written plans, the great human achievement of mankind from the building of the pyramids to the great industrial operations of the modern age were proceeded by and accompanied by detailed plans  carefully designed and that's through from the beginning to the end. Every minute spent in planning saves ten minutes in execution. Every minutes that you spend planning and thinking before you begin will save you time, money and energy in getting the result you desire. Failing to plan is planning to fail. It is always easier to get into something than it is to get out of it. The time to do the careful thinking is before you commit resources and people not afterwards. Cherish your vision and your dreams as they are the children of your soul ; the blueprint of your ultimate achievement. Your ability to visualise is perhaps the most powerful faculty that you posses. All improvement in your life begins with an improvement in mental pictures that you hold in y...

The uncommon man is merely the common man, thinking and dreaming success and in more fruitful areas. One of the qualities of the most successful people is that at certain point in their careers they decided to commit to excellence. They decided to be the best at what they do, they decided to pay the any price, make any sacrifice, and invest any amount of time necessary to become very good in their chosen field, and as a result of this decision, they pulled away from the pack of average performers and moved themselves upward into the income category where today they earn three, four, fives and even ten times as much as their peers who have not make this commitment. Every one who is doing well today was once doing poorly . Every one who is at the front of the buffet line of life started at the back of the line. Whatever others have done within reason, you can do as well. No one is better than you and no one is smarter than you, people are just better and smarter in different areas.

Between you and anything you want to accomplish there is a constraint, or a limiting factor that determines how fast you get to where you want to go. This bottleneck or choke point becomes the constraint that determines how fast you will get to your destination. The speed at which you pass through this bottleneck will largely determine the speed of your entire journey. Your ability to remove this bottleneck or deal with this limiting factor can help you move ahead faster than perhaps any other step you can take. Never be a doubter, the primary antidote to doubt and fear are courage and confidence. The higher your level of forage and confidence, the lower will be your levels of fear and doubt and less effect these negative emotions will have on your performance and behaviour.
