In my quest for success tips to pass on to each of you comes this set of ideas from the book "Success One Day At a Time" by John Maxwell.
WIN THE DAILY BATTLE
People who achieve daily success have learned to conquer four common time-wasters:
Laziness: Time put to no useful purpose, not even for relaxation.
Procrastination: Putting off things that should be done now.
Distraction: Time frittered away on the details of side issues, to the detriment of the main issue.
Impatience: Lack of preparation, thoroughness, or perseverance, usually resulting in time-consuming mistakes.
SUCCESS DEFINED
A success is one who decided to succeed?and worked.
A failure is one who decided to succeed?and wished.
A decided failure is one who failed to decide?and waited.
SUCCESS SPELLED OUT
How do you spell SUCCESS?
Select your goal.
Unlock your personal potential.
Commit yourself to your plan.
Chart your course.
Expect problems.
Stand firm on your commitment.
Surrender everything to God.
In closing, remember, success is going from failure to failure without losing your enthusiasm.
If you keep doing what you've always done, you'll always get what you've always gotten.
