This is a synopsis from the famous success coach Brian Tracy. He went from rags to riches and started many types of businesses, making millions of dollars in the process. He has written many books about achieving goals and becoming wealthy. These ideas are great for not only creating wealth, but also for improving relationships.
Step 1. Start with a dream, a burning desire to achieve your dreams and goals. The more you want it, the harder you will work for it and the easier it will be to achieve it.
Step 2. Set goals. Don’t be afraid to set high goals. Andrew Carnegie was the king of the steel industry in his day. He became incredibly wealthy and helped the USA become more competitive in the world market through his industrial efforts. Carnegie started his career in poverty. He said this:
“If you want to be happy, set a goal that commands your thoughts, liberates your energy, and inspires your hope.”
Step 3. Believe you can achieve your goals. People who don’t really believe they can achieve their goals usually give up quickly. If you have a strong belief that you will succeed, and believe in your abilities, you are much more likely to achieve success.
Step 4. Search for positions at work that you can do well at and start preparing yourself before you get the promotion. Or, for relationships, search for ways to make the relationship better.
Step 5. Read about and learn from mentors everything you can about the kind of position you are working for. The more you know about it, the more likely you are to get the job.
Step 6.” Implement your plans with courage and persistence. Have complete faith in your ability to succeed and never, never give up. Before you accomplish anything worthwhile, you will have to pass the persistence test. And the test will come far sooner than you imagine.” ~ Brian Tracy
Affirmation: I can do it! Say it over and over out loud and soon you will find a way to do whatever you set your mind to.
Nice tips, Brad! I can related to many. Without them, I wouldn’t be where I am and I won’t even be in this country anymore. I could’ve given up and went back to the comfortable nest of my parents. Thanks to my stubbornness, I stuck aroundd and 20 years later, I’m still here. 🙂
Happy holidays, Brad!

These steps really work, as I’m already doing each one of them and I have had the best year to date for my career.

Great tips Gary, I live by many of these too. Thanks for the reminder 🙂
Копче за сън е най-добрата от всички, спор няма. Музиката е от симфонична психеделия, бе направо 5th dimension :)Второ място за Барон Мюнхаузен . Песните също са много добри, на моменти е много смешна поради новата конотация на някои стари изрази (например хей, момко! ти, който умееш да духаш! ). Фалшивото пеене на Венера на втората страна на плочата обаче разваля всичко.Трето място за Хъкълбери Фин . Музиката е стил кънти-мюзикъл, малко като West Side Story.
Dream and then believe. The best advice and an empowering post.
Good evening Brad. I love your positive posts and references to some of the greatest entrepreneurs of all time. You and I must read a lot of the same books and follow the same iconic minds. 🙂 Merry Christmas to you and a prosperous new year. Peggy
