They are applicable in any situation, organization, or country. The principles apply to both genders and are based on the premise that most people fail not because of a lack of ability or intelligence but because of a lack of desire, direction, dedication, and discipline.

By serving society, I do not mean a run-of-the-mill pseudo leader-turned-politician who serves himself by pretending to serve others.

As human beings, we all have the need to receive and take. But a healthy personality with high self-esteem is one that not only has its need to take but also to give. A man was washing his new car when his neighbor asked him, “When did you get the car?

Step 6: Stay Away from Negative Influences Today’s teenagers learn from adult behavior and the media. They face peer pressure. Peer pressure is not just limited to teenagers, it is also prevalent in adults. It shows a lack of self-esteem when people do not have the courage to say “No, thank you,” and stay away from negative influences: What are the negative influences?

Negative People An eagle’s egg was placed in the nest of a prairie chicken. The egg hatched and the little eagle grew up thinking it was a prairie chicken. The eagle did what the prairie chickens did. It scratched in the dirt for seeds. It clucked and cackled. It never flew more than a few feet because that is what the prairie chickens did.

One day he saw an eagle flying gracefully and majestically in the open sky. He asked the prairie chickens: “What is that beautiful bird? He is an outstanding bird, but you cannot fly like him because you are just a prairie chicken. He lived the life of and died a prairie chicken, depriving himself of his heritage because of his lack of vision. What a waste! He was born to win, but was conditioned to lose. The same thing is true of most people.

The unfortunate part of life is as Oliver Wendall Holmes said, “Most people go to their graves, with music still in them. If you want to soar like an eagle, you have to learn the ways of an eagle. If you associate with achievers, you will become one. If you associate with thinkers, you will become one.

If you associate with givers, you will become one. If you associate with complainers, you will become one. Whenever people succeed in life, petty people will take cracks at them and try to pull them down. When you refuse to fight petty people, you win. In martial arts, they teach that when someone takes a crack at you, instead of blocking you should step away. Even to block you require energy. Why not use it more productively? Similarly, in order to fight petty people, you have to come down to their level.

This is what they want, because now you are one of them. Don’t let negative people drag you down. Remember, a person’s character is not only judged by the company he or she keeps but also by the company he or she avoids.

Page 23 of In my travels, I have noticed that in some countries drinking has become a national pastime. If you don’t drink, they look at you as if there is something wrong. Their motto is: “It doesn’t matter how bad your English is, as long as your Scotch is good. Drinking and smoking are glamorized today. It all starts with the first time.

If you ask people why they consume alcohol or take drugs, they will give you a host of reasons, such as: to celebrate; to have fun; to forget problems; to relax; to experiment; to impress it is cool to drink ; to be fashionable; to mingle; for business purposes. People want to conform to peer pressure. I am amazed at the way peer pressure compels with phrases such as: “Aren’t you my friend?

Drinking and driving cost lives. Pornography Pornography is nothing short of dehumanizing women and children. Eighty-six percent of rapists admit to regular use of pornography, with 57 percent admitting imitation of pornography scenes when committing sex crimes Dr. William Marshall, What about the sick people who buy it? Negative Movies and Television Programs Today’s kids are learning their attitudes and values more from television and movies than from anywhere else.

It is estimated that in the United States, by the time a youngster gets out of high school, he has watched more than 20, hours of television, witnessed 15, murders, and watched , alcohol-related commercials. No wonder the crime rate is so high! Soap operas glamorize premarital and extramarital sex. No wonder commitments are lacking in relationships and divorce rates are high. Impressionable viewers set their standards and benchmarks based on what they see and hear in the media.

And no matter who it is, we are all impressionable to varying degrees. Profanity Using profanities show a lack of self-control and discipline. Rock Music The lyrics of some hit songs are obscene. We can be subconsciously influenced by the music we hear and the performance we watch. Step 7: Learn to Like the Things That Need to be Done Some things need to be done whether we like them or not; for example, mothers caring for their young.

They may not be fun and games, and may even be painful. But if we learn to like the task, the impossible becomes possible. Start by doing what is necessary, then what is possible, and suddenly you are doing the impossible.

After a good night’s sleep we are relaxed and our subconscious is receptive. It sets the tone for the day, and puts us in the right frame of mind to make every day a positive day. In order to bring about change, we need to make a conscious effort Andre committed to make positive thoughts and behavior part of our lives. Practice having positive thoughts and behavior daily until they become a habit.

William James of Harvard University said, “If you are going to change your life, you need to start immediately and do it flamboyantly. The key word is preparation. Be a good finder. Make a habit of doing it now. Develop an attitude of gratitude. Get into a continuous education program. Build positive self-esteem. Stay away from negative influences. Learn to like the things that need to be done. Start your day with a positive. Write these action steps down on a 3-by-5 index card and read them every day for the next 21 days.

For the next 30 minutes, answer the following questions. Make a list of the things you would like to change about yourself. Then list the benefits to you and others of each change. Finally establish a timetable and commit yourself to make the changes. It is the result of our attitude and our attitude is a choice. Hence success is a matter of choice and not chance. Most crackpots keep waiting for a jackpot.

But can that bring success? A priest was driving by and saw an exceptionally beautiful farm. He stopped his car to appreciate the bountiful crop. The farmer was riding on his tractor and saw the priest at the corner.

He drove towards the Priest and when he got there the priest said, “God has blessed you with a beautiful farm. You should be grateful for it.

The farmer replied, “Yes, God has blessed me with a beautiful farm and I am grateful for it, but you should have seen this farm when God had the whole farm to himself! How come one man goes through life crossing one hurdle after another, accomplishing his goals while another struggles and gets nowhere? If the answer to these two questions can become part of the curriculum, it could revolutionize the educational system.

The uncommon man seeks opportunity, whereas the common man seeks security. We need to keep our minds on what we want, not on what we don’t want. A lot of research has gone into the subject of success and failure. All that we need to do is learn our lessons from history. When we study the life histories of successful people, we find that they have certain qualities in common no matter which period of history they lived in.

Success leaves clues and if we identify and adopt the qualities of successful people, we shall be successful. Similarly, there are characteristics common in all failures. If we avoid those characteristics, then we shall not be failures. Success is no mystery, but simply the result of consistently applying some basic principles.

The reverse is just as true: Failure is simply a result of making a few mistakes repeatedly. All of this might sound too simplistic, but the fact is that most truths are very simple. I’m not saying they are easy, but they certainly are simple. To laugh often and love much; To win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children; To earn the approval of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends ; To appreciate beauty; To find the best in others; To give off one’s self without the slightest thought of return; To have accomplished a task, whether by a healthy child, a rescued soul, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; To have played and laughed with Enthusiasm and sung with exaltation; To know that even one life has breathed Page 31 of easier because you have lived; This is to have succeeded.

What makes a person successful? How do we recognize success? To some people, success might mean wealth. To others, it is recognition, good health, good family, happiness, satisfaction, and peace of mind. What this really tells us is that success is subjective. It can mean different things to different people. The definition that I feel summarizes “success” well is: Success is the progressive realization of a worthy goal. Earl Nightingale Let’s look at these definitions carefully. We never arrive.

After we reach one goal, we go on to the next and the next and the next. Outside forces cannot make me feel successful. I have to feel it within myself. It is internal not external. Which way are we heading? Positive or negative?

Worthiness determines the quality of the journey. That is what gives meaning and fulfillment. Success without fulfillment is empty. Because they give us a sense of direction. Success does not mean being accepted by everyone.

There are some groups I would not want to be accepted by, out of choice. I would rather be criticized by fools than appreciated by unsavory characters. I define success as a manifestation of good luck that results from inspiration, aspiration, desperation and perspiration; generally in that sequence. Success and happiness go hand in hand.

Success is getting what you want and happiness is wanting what you get! Existence alone is not success! It is a lot more! Do more than exist — live Do more than touch — feel Do more than look — observe Do more than read — absorb Do more than hear — listen Do more than listen — understand John H. Striving for perfection is neurotic; striving for excellence is progress, because there is nothing that can’t be done better or improved.

All that we need is a little edge. The winning horse in the races wins 5-to-1 or to Do you think he is five or ten times faster than the other horses? He may only be faster by a fraction, by a nose, but the rewards are five or ten times greater. Is it fair? Who cares?

It doesn’t matter. Those are the rules of the game. That is the way the game is played. The same is true in our lives. Successful people are not ten times smarter than the people who fail.

They may be better by a nose, but the rewards are ten times bigger. That is the winning edge! Triumphs don’t come without effort. A biology teacher was teaching his students how a caterpillar turns into a butterfly. He told the students that in the next couple of hours, the butterfly would struggle to come out of the cocoon.

But no one should help the butterfly. Then he left. The students were waiting and it happened. The butterfly struggled to get out of the cocoon, and one of the students took pity on it and decided to help the butterfly out of the cocoon against the advice of his teacher.

He broke the cocoon to help the butterfly so it didn’t have to struggle anymore. But shortly afterwards the butterfly died. When the teacher returned, he was told what happened. He explained to this student that by helping the butterfly, he had actually killed it because it is a law of nature that the struggle to come out of the cocoon actually helps develop and strengthen its wings.

The boy had deprived the butterfly of its struggle and the butterfly died. Apply this same principle to our lives. Nothing worthwhile in life comes without a struggle. As parents we tend to hurt the ones we love most because we don’t allow them to struggle to gain strength. We all have problems and we feel discouraged some time. Most people get disappointed; but winners don’t get disheartened.

The answer is perseverance. An English proverb says, “A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner. We cannot run away from our problems. Only losers quit and give up. Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. True success is measured by the feeling of knowing you have done a job well and have achieved your objective.

Success is not measured by our position in life but by the obstacles we overcame to get there. Success in life is not determined by how we are doing compared with others, but by how we are doing compared with what we are capable of doing. Successful people compete against themselves. They better their own record and keep improving constantly. Success is not measured by how high we go up in life but by how many times we bounce back when we fall down.

It is this bounce back ability that determines success. Tom Watson Sr. But people don’t see the failures. They only see one side of the picture and they say that person got lucky: “He must have been at the right place at the right time. This was a man who failed in business at the age of 21 ; was defeated in a legislative race at age 22; failed again in business at age 24; overcame the death of his sweetheart at age 26; had a nervous breakdown at age 27; lost a congressional race at age 34; lost a senatorial race at age 45; failed in an effort to become vice-president at age 47; lost a senatorial race at age 49; and was elected president of the United States at age This man was Abraham Lincoln.

Would you call him a failure? He could have quit. But to Lincoln, defeat was a detour and not a dead end. In , Lee De Forest, inventor of the triodes tube, was charged by the district attorney for using fraudulent means to mislead the public into buying stocks of his company by claiming that he could transmit the human voice across the Atlantic.

He was publicly humiliated. Can you imagine where we would be without his invention? A New York Times editorial on December 10, , questioned the wisdom of the Wright Brothers who were trying to invent a machine, heavier than air, that would fly.

One week later, at Kitty Hawk, the Wright Brothers took their famous flight. He remembered his mother’s recipe and went out selling. How many doors did he have to knock on before he got his first order? It is estimated that he had knocked on more than a thousand doors before he got his first order. How many of us quit after three tries, ten tries, a hundred tries, and then we say we tried as hard as we could? As a young cartoonist, Walt Disney faced many rejections from newspaper editors, who said he had no talent.

One day a minister at a church hired him to draw some cartoons. Disney was working out of a small mouse infested shed near the church. After seeing a small mouse, he was inspired.

That was the start of Mickey Mouse. Successful people don’t do great things, they only do small things in a great way. One day a partially deaf four year old kid came home with a note in his pocket from his teacher, “Your Tommy is too stupid to learn, get him out of the school. Thomas Edison had only three months of formal schooling and he was partially deaf.

Henry Ford forgot to put the reverse gear in the first car he made. Do you consider these people failures? They succeeded in spite of problems, not in the absence of them. But to the outside world, it appears as though they just got lucky. All success stories are stories of great failures.

The only difference is that every time they failed, they bounced back. This is called failing forward, rather than backward. You learn and move forward. Learn from your failure and keep moving.

In , Thomas Edison, at age 67, lost his factory, which was worth a few million dollars, to fire. It had very little insurance. No longer a young man, Edison watched his lifetime effort go up in smoke and said, “There is great value in disaster.

All our mistakes are burnt up. Thank God we can start anew. Below are more examples of the failures of successful people: 1.

Thomas Edison failed approximately 10, times while he was working on the light bulb. Henry Ford was broke at the age of Young Beethoven was told that he had no talent for music, but he gave some of the best music to the world. Setbacks are inevitable in life. A setback can act as a driving force and also teach us humility. In grief you will find courage and faith to overcome the setback. We need to learn to become victors, not victims. Fear and doubt short-circuit the mind.

Ask yourself after every setback: What did I learn from this experience? Only then will you be able to turn a stumbling block into a stepping stone. Page 35 of If you think you dare not, you don’t! If you like to win, but think you can’t, It’s almost a cinch you won’t. If you think you are outclassed, you are, You’ve got to think high to rise, You’ve got to be sure of yourself before You can ever win a prize.

Life’s battles don’t always go To the stronger and faster man, But sooner or later the man who wins Is the man who thinks he can. He cannot fly like a bird, can be killed by a tiny insect, cannot outrun a leopard, cannot swim like an alligator, cannot climb the tree like a monkey, doesn’t have the eye of an eagle, nor does he have the claws and teeth of a wild cat.

Physically, man is helpless and defenseless. But nature is reasonable and kind. Nature’s greatest gift to man is the ability to think. He can create his own environment, whereas animals adapt to their environment. Sadly, very few people use the greatest gift the ability to think to its full potential.

Failures are of two kinds: those who did and never thought and those who thought and never did. Going through life without using our ability to think is like shooting without aiming. Life is like a cafeteria. You take’ your tray, select your food and pay at the other end. You can get anything you want as long as you are willing to pay the price. In a cafeteria, if you wait for people to serve you, you will wait forever.

Life is like that too. You make choices and pay the price. If life is full of choices, where is the question of compromises? Remember, even a compromise is a choice. Let’s evaluate this. How is Life Full of Choices? When we eat too much, we make a choice to be overweight. When we drink too much, we make a choice to have a headache the next day. If you drink and drive, you make a choice to risk being killed or killing someone in an accident. When we ill treat people, we make a choice to be ill treated in return.

When we don’t care about other people, we make a choice not to be cared for by other people. Choices have consequences. We are free to make our choice but after we have chosen, the choice controls us. We have equal opportunity to be unequal. The choice is ours. Life Page 36 of can be compared to a pottery maker who shapes clay in any form he wants. Similarly, we can mold our lives into any shape we want.

How is Life Full of Compromises? Life is not just party and pleasure; it is also pain and despair. Unthinkable things happen. Sometimes everything turns upside down. Bad things happen to good people. Some things are beyond control, such as physical disability and birth defects.

We cannot choose our parents or the circumstances of our birth. So if the ball bounced that way, sorry. But what do we do from here; cry or take the ball and run? That is a choice we have to make. On a clear day, there are hundreds of boats sailing in all different directions in a lake.

How come? Even though the wind is blowing in one direction, the sailboats are going in different directions. What is the difference? It depends on the way the sail is set, and that is determined by the sailor. The same is true of our lives. We can’t choose the direction of the wind, but we can choose how we set the sail. We can choose our attitude even though we cannot always choose our circumstances. The choice is either to act like a victor or a victim.

It is not our position but our disposition that determines our destiny. It takes both rain and sunshine to create a rainbow. Our lives are no different. There is happiness and sorrow. There is the good and the bad ; dark and bright spots. If we can handle adversity, it only strengthens us. We cannot control all the events that happen in our lives, but we can control how we deal with them. Richard Blechnyden wanted to promote Indian tea at the St.

Louis World fair in It was very hot and no one wanted to sample his tea. Blechnyden saw that all the other iced drinks were doing flourishing business. It dawned on him to make his tea into an iced drink, mix in sugar and sell it.

He did and people loved it. That was the introduction of iced tea to the world. When things go wrong, as they sometimes will, we can react responsibly or resentfully. Human beings are not like an action which has no choice.

An action cannot decide whether to become a giant tree or to become food for the squirrels. Human beings have choices. If nature gives us a lemon, we have a choice: either cry or make lemonade. Desire The motivation to succeed comes from the burning desire to achieve a purpose. Napoleon Hill wrote, “Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, the mind can achieve.

Socrates told the young man to meet him near the river the next morning. They met. Socrates asked the young man to walk with him toward the river. When the water got up to their neck, Socrates took the young man by surprise and ducked him into the water. The boy struggled to get out but Socrates was strong and kept him there until the boy started turning blue. Socrates pulled his head out of the water and the first thing the young man did was to gasp and take a deep breath of air.

Socrates asked, ‘What did you want the most when you were there? When you Page 37 of want success as badly as you wanted the air, then you will get it. A burning desire is the starting point of all accomplishment.

Just like a small fire cannot give much heat, a weak desire cannot produce great results. Commitment Integrity and wisdom are the two pillars on which to build and keep commitments. This point is best illustrated by the manager, who told one of his staff members, “Integrity is keeping your commitment even if you lose money and wisdom is not to make such foolish commitments. It is our decision what thoughts will dominate our lives.

Success is not an accident. It is the result of our attitude. Playing to Win Requires Commitment There is a big difference between playing to win and playing not to lose. When we play to win, we play with enthusiasm and commitment; whereas when we play not to lose, we are playing from a position of weakness.

When we play not to lose, we are playing to avoid failure. We all want to win, but very few are prepared to pay the price to prepare to win. Winners condition and commit themselves to winning. Playing to win comes out of inspiration, whereas playing not to lose comes out of desperation.

There are no ideal circumstances. There will never be. To reach anywhere we cannot just drift nor lie at anchor. We need to sometimes sail with the wind and sometimes against it, but sail we must. Ask any coach or athlete what the difference between the best and the worst team is.

There would be very little difference in their physique, talent and ability. The biggest difference you will find is emotional difference. The winning team has dedication and they make the extra effort. Most athletes’ best performances have come when the odds are slightly against them.

The next morning he made arrangements to sell off his farm, took care of his family andwent in search of diamonds. He looked all over Africa and couldn’t find any. He looked allthrough Europe and couldn’t find any.

When he got to Spain, he was emotionally,physically and financially broke. He got so disheartened that he threw himself into theBarcelona River and committed suicide. Back home, the person who had bought his farm was watering the camels at a streamthat ran through the farm. Across the stream, the rays of the morning sun hit a stone andmade it sparkle like a rainbow.

He thought it would look good on the mantle piece. Hepicked up the stone and put it in the living room.

That afternoon the wise man came andsaw the stone sparkling. He asked, “Is Hafiz back? I recognize one when I seeone. Come, I’ll showyou. There are many more. Sure enough, the stones were diamonds. They found that the farm was indeedcovered with acres and acres of diamonds. What is the moral of this story? There are five morals When our attitude is right, we realize that we are all walking on acres and acres of. Attributed to Dr Russel Conwell.

Opportunity is always under our feet. We don’t have to go anywhere. All we need. The grass on the other side always looks greener. While we are dyeing the grass on the other side, there are others who are dyeing the.

They would be happy to trade places with us. When people don’t know how to recognize opportunity, they complain of noise when it. We all know the story of David and Goliath. There was a giant who was bullying andharassing the children in the village. One day, a year-old shepherd boy came to visithis brothers and asked, “Why don’t you stand up and fight the giant? We all know what happened. David killed the giant with a sling. Same giant, different perception. Our attitude determines how we look at a setback.

To a positive thinker, it can be astepping stone to success. To a negative thinker, it can be a stumbling block. Great organizations are not measured by wages and working conditions, they aremeasured by feelings, attitudes and relationships.

When employees say, “I can’t do it,” there are two possible meanings. Are they sayingthey don’t know how to or they don’t want to? If they don’t know how to, that is a trainingissue. If they are saying they don’t want to,it may be an attitude issue they don’t care or a values issue they believe they shouldnot do it.

I believe in the holistic approach. We are not an arm and a leg, but a complete humanbeing. The whole person goes to work and the whole person comes home.

We takefamily problems to work and work problems to the family. What happens when we takefamily problems to work?

Our stress level goes up and productivity comes down. Similarly, work and social problems have an impact on every aspect of our lives. Take any one of those items and extrapolate it into sophisticated adult terms and apply itto your family life or your work or your government or your world and it holds true andclear and firm.

Are we born with attitudes or do we develop them as we mature? What are the factorsthat form our attitudes? If you have a negative outlook on life because of your environment, can you change yourattitude? Most of our attitude is shaped during our formative years. There are primarily three factors that determine our attitude. They are Let’s evaluate each of the factors individually. Home: positive or negative influences School: peer pressure Work: supportive or over critical supervisor Media: television, newspapers, magazines, radio, movies Cultural background Religious background Traditions and beliefs Social environment Political environment.

All of these environments create a culture. Every place be it a home, organization or acountry has a culture. Have you noticed that sometimes you go to a store and you find the salesperson polite,the supervisor, manager and owner polite as well?

Yet you go to another shop and youfind everyone rude and discourteous. You go to a home and you find the kids and parents well-behaved, courteous andconsiderate. You go to another home where everyone is fighting like cats and dogs. In countries where the government and political environment is honest, generally you willfind that the people are honest, law abiding and helpful.

And the reverse is true too. In acorrupt environment, an honest person has a tough time. Whereas in an honestenvironment, the corrupt one has a tough time. In a positive environment, a marginal performer’s output goes up. In a negativeenvironment, a good performer’s output goes down. Culture in any place always goes top down, never bottom up. We need to step back andlook at what kind of environment we have created for ourselves and those around us. It istough to expect positive behavior in a negative environment.

Where lawlessnessbecomes the law, honest citizens become cheats, crooks and thieves. Isn’t it time to evaluate the environment that we are in or we have created for others? Our behavior changes according to our experiences with people and events in our life.

Ifwe have a positive experience with a person, our attitude toward him becomes positiveand vice versa. I refer to both formal and informal education, not just academic qualifications.

Knowledgestrategically applied translates into wisdom, ensuring success. I talk of education in thebroader sense. It makes the role of the ; educator vital. A teacher affects eternity. Theripple effect is immeasurable. We are drowning in information but starving for knowledge and wisdom.

Education oughtto teach us not only how to make a living but also how to live. Just like an absence of ill health does not equal good health, an absence of negativityalone does not make a person positive. People with positive attitudes have certain personality traits that are easy to recognize.

They are caring, confident, patient, and humble. They have high expectations ofthemselves and others. They anticipate positive outcomes. A person with a positiveattitude is like a fruit of all seasons. He is always welcome. These are many and easy to see. But what is easy to see is also easy to miss.

Tomention a few, a positive attitude. Our life is an obstacle course and we become our own biggest obstacle by having anegative attitude.

People with a negative attitude have a hard time keeping friendships,jobs, marriage and relationships. Their attitude leads to. They create a negative environment at home and work and become a liability to society.

They also pass on their negative behavior to others around them and to futuregenerations. Human nature generally resists change. Change is uncomfortable. Regardless of itspositive or negative effect, change can be stressful. Sometimes we get so comfortablewith our negativity that even when the change is for the positive, we don’t want to acceptit.

We stay with the negative. Charles Dickens wrote about a prisoner who stayed for many years in a dungeon. Afterserving his sentence, he got his freedom. He was brought out from his cell into the brightdaylight of the open world. This man looked all around and after a few moments was souncomfortable with his newly acquired freedom that he asked to be brought back to hiscell into confinement. To him, the dungeon, the chains and the darkness were moresecure and comfortable than accepting the change of freedom and the open world.

During childhood, we form attitudes that last a lifetime. Undoubtedly, it would be a loteasier and better to have acquired a positive attitude during our formative years. Doesthat mean if we acquire a negative attitude, whether by design or by default, we are stuckwith it? Of course not. Can we change? Is it easy? Absolutely not. How do you build and maintain a positive attitude?

Become aware of the principles that build a positive attitude Desire to be positive Cultivate the discipline and dedication to practice those principles. As adults, regardless of our environment, education and experience, who is responsiblefor our attitude?

We are. We have to accept responsibility some time in our lives. We blame everyone andeverything but ourselves. It is up to us to choose our attitude every morning. As adults,we need to accept responsibility for our behavior and actions. People with negative attitudes will blame the whole world, their parents, teachers,spouse, the economy and the government for their failures.

You have to get away from the past. Dust yourself off, get back into the mainstream. Putyour dreams together and move forward. Thinking of the positive things that are true,honest and good, will put us in a positive state of mind. If we want to build and maintain a positive attitude, we need to consciously practice thefollowing steps:. We need to become good finders. We need to focus on the positive in life. Let’s startlooking for what is right in a person or situation instead of looking for what is wrong.

Because of our conditioning, we are so attuned to finding fault and looking for what iswrong that we forget to see the positive picture. Even in paradise, fault finders will find faults. Most people find what they are looking for. If they are looking for friendship, happiness and the positive, that is what they get. If theyare looking for fights or indifference, then that is what they get. Caution looking for thepositive does not mean overlooking faults.

As a young Scots boy, Andrew Carnegie came to America and started doing odd jobs. He ended up as one of the largest steel manufacturers in the United States. At one time he had 43 millionaires working for him. Several decades ago, a million dollarsused to be a lot of money; even today it is a lot of money. Someone asked Mr. Carnegiehow he dealt with people? Andrew Carnegie replied, “Dealing with people is like digginggold: When you go digging for an ounce of gold, you have to move tons of dirt to get anounce of gold.

But when you go digging, you don’t go looking for the dirt, you go lookingfor the gold. What is your focus? Become a digger for gold. If you are looking for what is wrong withpeople or with things, you will find many. What are you looking for? Andrew Carnegie’sreply has a very important message. There is something positive in every person andevery situation. Sometimes we have to dig deep to look for the positive because it maynot be apparent. Besides, we are so used to looking for what is wrong with other peopleand situations, we forget to see what is right.

Someone once said that even a stoppedclock is right twice a day. Remember when you go looking for gold, you have to move tons of dirt to get to anounce of gold. But when you go looking, you don’t go looking for the dirt, you go lookingfor the gold. Some people criticize no matter what. It does not matter which side you are on, they arealways on the other side. They have made a career out of criticizing. They are “careercritics. They will find fault with everyperson and every situation.

You will find people like this in every home, family, office. They go around finding fault and telling everybody how bad things are and blaming thewhole world for their problems. We have a name for these people. They are calledenergy suckers. They will go to the cafeteria and drown themselves in 20 cups of tea andcoffee and smoke to their hearts’ content with one excuse: they are trying to relax. Allthat they are doing is causing more tension for themselves and for others around them.

They spread negative messages like a plague and create an environment conducive tonegative results. Robert Fulton invented the steamboat. On the banks of the Hudson River he wasdisplaying his new invention. The pessimists and the skeptics were gathered around toobserve. They commented that it would never start. Lo and behold, it did. As it made itsway down the river, the pessimists who said it would never go, started shouting that itwould never stop.

What an attitude! There was a hunter who bought a bird dog, the only one of its kind in the world. Thatcould walk on water. He couldn’t believe his eyes when he saw this miracle. At thesame time, he was very pleased that he could show off his new acquisition to his friends. He invited a friend to go duck hunting. After some time, they shot a few ducks and theman ordered his dog to run and fetch the birds.

All day-long, the dog ran on water andkept fetching the birds. The owner was expecting a comment or a compliment about hisamazing dog, but never got one. As they were returning home, he asked his friend if he. The friend replied, “Yes, in fact, I did noticesomething unusual. Your dog can’t swim. Be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind. Talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person you meet. Make all your friends feel there is something in them. Look at the sunny side of everything.

Think only of the best, work only for the best, and expect only the best. Be as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own. Forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future. Give everyone a smile. Spend so much time improving yourself that you have no time left to criticize others.

Be too big for worry and too noble for anger. We have all procrastinated at some time in our lives. I know I have, only to haveregretted it later. Procrastination leads to a negative attitude. The habit of procrastinationfatigues you more than the effort it takes to do it. A completed task is fulfilling and energizing; an incomplete task drains energy like a leakfrom a tank.

If you want to build and maintain a positive attitude, get into the habit of living in thepresent and doing it now. He slept beneath the moonHe basked beneath the sunHe lived a life of going to doand died with nothing done. This is like the little boy who says when I become a big boy, I will do this and this and Iwill be happy. And when he becomes a big boy he says, when I finish college and do thisand this and I will be happy.

And when he finishes college he says when I get my first joband do this and this I will be happy. And when he gets his first job he says when I getmarried and do this and this and then I will be happy. And when he gets married he sayswhen the kids get out of school and I do this and this I will be I happy. And when the kidsget out of school, he says when I retire and do this and this, I will be happy. And when heretires what does he see? He sees life has just gone by in front of his eyes.

Larsen, in The Best of Some people practice procrastination by hiding behind high sounding words, saying “I’manalyzing” and six months later they are still analyzing. What they don’t realize is thatthey are suffering from a disease called, “Paralysis of Analysis” and they will neversucceed. Then there is another breed of people who procrastinate by saying “I’m getting ready”and a month later they are still getting ready and six months later they are still gettingready.

What they don’t realize is they are suffering from a disease called “Excusitis. Life is not a dress rehearsal. I don’t care what philosophy you believe in–we have gotonly one shot at this game called life. The stakes are too high. The stakes are the futuregenerations. What time is it and where are we? The answer is now and we are here. Let’s make thebest of now and utilize the present to the fullest. The message is not that we don’t needto plan for the future. The message is that we do need to plan for the future.

If we utilizeour present to its fullest, we are sowing the seeds for a better future automatically, aren’twe? If you want to build a positive attitude, learn the phrase, “do it now” and stop the habit ofprocrastination.

The saddest words in life are:. I am sure all winners wanted to be procrastinators but never got around to it. When people say, “I will do it one of these days,” you can be sure it means none of thesedays. Some people keep waiting for all lights to turn green before they leave home. That willnever happen and they fail even before they start. That is sad. Count your blessings, not your troubles. Take time to smell the roses. It is not uncommonto hear that someone, because of an accident or illness, became blind or paralyzed butwon a million dollars in settlement.

How many of us would like to trade places with thatperson? Not many. We are so focused on complaining about things we don’t have thatwe lose sight of the things we have. There is a lot to be thankful for. When I say count your blessings, not your troubles, the message is not to becomecomplacent. If complacence was the message you got, then I would be guilty of faultycommunication and you of selective listening.

To give you an example of selective listening, let me share with you a story I heard abouta medical doctor who was invited as a guest speaker to address a group of alcoholics. He wanted to make a demonstration that would be powerful enough to make peoplerealize that alcohol was injurious to their health.

He had two containers, one with puredistilled water and one with pure alcohol. He put an earthworm into the distilled water andit swam beautifully and came up to the top.

He put another earthworm into the alcoholand it disintegrated in front of everyone’s eyes. He wanted to prove that this was whatalcohol did to the insides of our body. He asked the group what the moral of the storywas and one person from behind said, “If you drink alcohol you won’t have worms in yourstomach.

That was selective listening–we hearwhat we want to hear and not what is being said. Many of our blessings are hidden treasures–count your blessings and not your troubles. Let’s get some myths out of the way. It is a general belief that we get educated in schoolsand colleges. I run seminars in many different countries and ask my audiences all thetime, “Do we really get educated in schools and colleges? We receive a lot of information in schools andcolleges. We do need information to be educated.

But we need toknow the true meaning of education. Intellectual education influences the head and values based education influences theheart.

In fact, education that does not train the heart can be dangerous. If we want tobuild character in our offices, homes and society, we must achieve a minimum level ofmoral and ethical literacy. Education that builds fundamental traits of character–such ashonesty, compassion, courage, persistence and responsibility–is absolutely essential. We don’t need more academic education; we need more values education.

I would stressthat a person who is morally educated will be a lot better equipped to move up in life orsucceed than a morally bankrupt person with excellent academic qualifications.

Character building and teaching values and ethics come in the formative years becausea child is not born with this knowledge. True education is training of both the head and the heart. An uneducated thief may stealfrom the freight car but an educated one may steal the entire railroad. Universities are turning out highly skilled barbarians because we don’t provide aframework of values to young people, who more and more are searching for it. We need to compete for knowledge and wisdom, not for grades.

Knowledge is piling upfacts, wisdom is simplifying it. One could have good grades and a degree withoutlearning much. The most important thing one can learn is to “learn to learn. Education of the mind withoutmorals creates a menace to society. There is a story about a man who sold hot dogs by the roadside. He was illiterate, so henever read newspapers. He was hard of hearing, so he never listened to the radio. Hiseyes were weak, so he never watched television.

But enthusiastically, he sold lots of hotdogs. His sales and profit went up. He ordered more meat and got himself a bigger and abetter stove. As his business was growing, the son, who had recently graduated fromcollege, joined his father.

Then something strange happened. The son asked, “Dad, aren’t you aware of the greatrecession that is coming our way? The domestic is even worse. We should beprepared for the coming bad time. So the next day, the father cut down his order for the meatand buns, took down the sign and was no longer enthusiastic. Very soon, fewer andfewer people bothered to stop at his hot dog stand. And his sales started coming downrapidly. The father said to his son, “Son, you were right.

We are in the middle of arecession. I am glad you warned me ahead of time. Many times we confuse intelligence with good judgment.

A person may have high intelligence but poor judgment. Choose your advisers carefully and use your judgment. A person can and will be successful with or without formal education if they have the 5.

Cs: character commitment conviction courtesy courage5. The tragedy is that there are many walking encyclopedias who are living failures. Intelligence is quickness to leam. Ability is the skill to apply what is learned.

Competenceis the ability and the desire to apply what is learned. Desire is the attitude that makes askillful person competent. Many skillful people are incompetent. Ability without the rightattitude is wasted. The first duty of a university is to teach wisdom, not trade; character, not technicalities. First, those who manage well the circumstances which they encounter day by day; andthose who can judge situations appropriately as they arise and rarely miss the suitablecourse of action. Next, those who are honorable in their dealings with all men, bearing easily what isunpleasant or offensive in others, and being as reasonable with their associates as ishumanly possible.

Furthermore, those who hold their pleasures always under control and are not undulyovercome by their misfortunes, bearing up under them bravely and in a manner worthy ofour common nature. Most important of all, those who are not spoiled by their successes, who do not deserttheir true selves, but hold their ground steadfastly as wise and sober-minded men,rejoicing no more in the good things that have come to them through chance than inthose which through their own nature and intelligence are theirs since birth.

Those who have a character which is in accord, not with one of these things, but with allof them these are educated–possessed of all the virtues. In a nutshell, educated persons are those who can choose wisely and courageouslyunder any circumstances.

If they have the ability to choose between wisdom andfoolishness, between good and bad, between virtuousness and vulgarities, regardless ofthe academic degrees they have, then they are educated. An expert is someone who knows all the answers if you ask the right questions. What is a Broad-Based Education? A board was formed and it wasdecided that flying, tree climbing, swimming, and burrowing would be part of thecurriculum in order to give a broad-based education.

All animals were required to take allsubjects. The bird was excellent at flying and was getting A’s but when it came to burrowing, it keptbreaking its beak and wings and started failing. Pretty soon, it started making C’s in flyingand of course in tree climbing and swimming it was getting F’s.

The squirrel was great attree climbing and was getting A’s, but was failing in swimming. The fish was the bestswimmer but couldn’t get out of the water and got F’s in everything else.

The dog didn’tjoin the school, stopped paying taxes and kept fighting with the administration to includebarking as part of the curriculum. The rabbit got A’s in burrowing but tree climbing was areal problem. It kept falling and landing on its head, suffered brain damage, and sooncouldn’t even burrow properly and got C’s in that too.

The mentally retarded eel, who did everything half as well became the valedictorian ofthe class. The board was happy because everybody was getting a broad-basededucation.

What a broad-based education really means is that the student is prepared for life,without losing their areas of specialization or competence. The small size of the hummingbird, weighing only a tenth of an ounce, gives it theflexibility to perform complicated maneuvers, such as beating its wings 75 times asecond. This enables the hummingbird to drink nectar from flowers while hovering but itcannot soar, glide or hop.

The ostrich, at pounds, is the largest bird but it can’t fly. However, its legs are so strong that it can run at up to 50 miles per hour, taking strides of feet. Illusion of knowledge is not education, but ignorance. Foolish people have a strange kindof confidence which comes only with ignorance. There is nothing wrong with ignorance, but making a career out of it is stupidity.
