In order to become successful, you must first know what you want and make a written plan for your success.  A written plan is necessary to ensure you stay on your chosen path.  It is necessary that you review the plan often update it as necessary.

Make a firm and excited commitment to learn all of your life.  Information in this world is forever changing and you need to change with it.  Learning new information helps you keep the excitement about what you want, what you are doing and mastering your mind.

Acknowledge your passion and make it your primary goal.  Passion causes you to be excited about what you want, to immerse  yourself in your goals and be ready when your goals take on a life of their own.

Learn to read and learn fast.  Select  a target group of publications from which you have an interest and will gain knowledge about your chosen endeavor.  Place yourself on the "cutting edge" of your path to success.

Make certain that you have and maintain a positive attitude which allows you to do everything you want to do.  Build a belief in what you are doing by selecting what you want, build a vision of what you have selected and allow yourself to be excited by knowing you will have what you want to have.

Expect your vision to become reality; let it happen in the timeframe that it is supposed to happen. Allow your vision to become real and then enjoy what you have create for yourself.

Express gratitude for everything that you have and for everything you receive.  When you are tempted to believe you life is not as full as you would like, there is always something to be grateful for.  Gratitude is extremely important to attaining your goals and in enjoying life. Always be grateful for your loved ones, friends, job, material things; without gratitude, life has little meaning and joy.

Build as many relationships as you can.  You will always find ideas from other people helpful. You can learn much from people who are willing to help;  most people truly want to help you. Make sure that you give and receive good counsel.  When advice is good, praise the source and let it be know to everyone how happy you are about the advice and help.  You can never have too many relationships and friends.  Relationships help get your message to those who need and want it.

Take action on every part of your goals. Without definite action nothing will be accomplished. Keep this idea in your mind, always; without me, it will never be.  Be ready to use all of your relationships and friends to help keep you going.  Find people who are willing to listen to and support you.

While all of this is serious, you must keep everything in perspective; have fun in whatever you do.  Look for joy in your life, help find joy for and within other people.  Be prepared to help others in every way that you can.  If you truly enjoy what you are doing, you will become successful and will never work a day in your life.  Just think of all the joy and happiness you will bring to yourself and to other people you will have contact with.
