A STRATEGY FOR SUCCESS

The starting point of all achievement is desire;
that is why it is so important to want what you need.

My motto for success has been:
  • Want what you need.
  • Get what you want.
  • And, enjoy what you have.
NINE WAYS TO TURN DESIRES INTO MONEY:
  1. Determine the potential rewards (especially net profit)
    of the business or enterprise or your most favorable interest.
  2. Determine exactly what you need to get started, survive, and thrive
    in the business or enterprise of your most favorable interest.
  3. Build the skills you need.
  4. Acquire the necessary resources for achievement.
  5. Create a sound plan of detailed action with starting and ending times
    for accomplishments of goals, objectives, and activities.
  6. Persistently and consistently follow your PLAN OF ACTION.
  7. Record activities (including time spent on each task) and results.
  8. Evaluate results.
  9. IMPROVE wherever/whenever possible.
