No one becomes successful by accident. Success requires making a plan
and sticking to it. It is simple, but does require commitment; it is
not hard to do, but does require hard work. The good news is that once
you begin, the results start coming almost instantly. The miracle of
successful living is that the smallest step towards success attracts
more success! Here is a very brief outline of the key points that will
help you achieve the highest levels of success.

1. Look into the nearest mirror - the person staring back at you is
the only person responsible for your success. Smile! No one else is
the cause of your success or to blame for your short comings.
Successful people take full responsibility for their actions.

2. Smile back at your reflection. Successful people are cheerful,
optimistic, and forward thinking. If you think you don't have anything
to smile about, smile anyway. Positive thoughts drive out negative
thoughts. It's hard to have a negative thought while you are smiling!

3. Positive self-esteem is the foundation for success. Feel good about
yourself and your abilities, achievements and potential. Don't dwell
on your mistakes. Remind and praise yourself on your past
accomplishments. Congratulate yourself for taking positive steps
toward a more successful future.

4. Believe in yourself. You are here for a purpose. God doesn't make
extras just to fill in the scenery. Find your mission and begin
working to fulfill it.

5. Desire to be a success. Decide right now that you will be
successful. Commit to being successful.

6. Associate with successful people. Do what they do. When faced with
choices, make the choice a successful person would make. Blow your
bonus check on a gambling trip or invest it?

7. Avoid unsuccessful people. Do not under any circumstances associate
with negative people. Negative people are toxic; they destroy, they do
not build. They are vampires that can live only by draining the life
from others. The odds are greater that they will pull you down faster
than you can lift them up. You can choose to stay away from all the
negative people in your life. Avoid all the whiners, complainers,
blamers and thumbsuckers.

8. Do what you are best at and what you get the most satisfaction
from. There is no reason to stay stuck doing things that are
frustrating, boring, unhealthy, unproductive, demeaning or
unfulfilling.

9. Write down a vision of how you want to live your life. Be specific.
Where you want to live, what kind of carpet, who your friends are,the
pony's name, what the new church rec hall you donated looks like, etc.
Make a Future Scrapbook; paste in pictures, drawings, essays,
clippings. Make up news headlines about your achievements. Every day
visualize yourself as you would like to be - and then act that way!

10. Write down your biggest goal, the one you most want to fulfill.
Write it in the present tense, "I am...", "I have...", "I
contribute...". Success is the result of a personal decision, so start
your goal with "I". Read your goal aloud every morning and night. Tell
people your goal. Make a plan to achieve your goal and stick to it.

11. Study the science of success. Read books, listen to tapes, watch
videos and positive TV programming. Talk to successful people and ask
them how they became successful. Fill your mind with positive thoughts
and give yourself positive self-affirmations.

12. Every day do something that brings you closer to your goal. Never
give up. You can only fail if you quit trying. Keep on keeping on and
you will succeed. Achieving success requires following a system. Begin
today by putting these 12 points into daily practice. Everybody
experiences fear of failure, uncertainty, insecurity, low self-esteem,
indecision, depression, nervousness and embarrassment. Successful
people master these temporary conditions by taking positive action, by
sticking to their plan, by maintaining their vision of the future, by
learning from setbacks and by rededicating themselves to the pursuit
of their mission. By following these simple steps you will become
successful and achieve all that you desire.
