The Write Path

“ Men are anxious to improve their circumstances, but are unwilling to improve themselves;they therefore remain bound. The man who does not shrink from self-crucifixion can neverfail to accomplish the object upon which his heart is set. This is true of earthly as of heavenlythings. Even the man whose object is to acquire wealth must be prepared to make greatpersonal sacrifices before he can accomplish his object; and how much more so he whowould realize a strong and well-poised life.”  —JAMES ALLEN You require high levels of self-discipline if you truly desire to develop all your inner resources and fulfill your true potential.

Persistence is self-discipline in action. Your ability to persist in the face of all setbacks and temporary failures is essential to success in life. Napoleon Hill said, “ Persistence is to the character of man as carbon is to steel .”  The primary reason for success is persistence, and, likewise, the primary reason for failure is lack of persistence, quitting too soon.  There is a direct link between self-discipline and self-esteem.

There are more complex and detailed goal-achieving methodologies, but this Seven-Step Method will enable you to accomplish ten times more than you have ever accomplished before, and you will do so far faster than you can currently imagine. Step 1:              Decide Exactly What You Want.  Be specific.

Become genuinely interested in other people.  "You can make more friends in two months by being interested in them, than in two years by making them interested in you." The only way to make quality, lasting friendships is to learn to be genuinely interested in them and their interests. 2. Smile . Happiness does not depend on outside circumstances, but rather on inward attitudes. Smiles are free to give and have an amazing ability to make others feel wonderful. Smile in everything that you do. 3 Remember that a person's name is, to that person, the sweetest and most important sound in any language.  "The average person is more interested in their own name than in all the other names in the world put together."
