The Means to Notable Achievement

Are you prepared to direct and deploy these forces with masterful control and strategic skill? Are you prepared to use all your reserves of mental energy in the crises of your career?

Individual mental efficiency is an absolute prerequisite to any notable personal achievement or any great individual success. Your mental energies are the forces with which you must wage your battles in this world. Are you prepared to direct and deploy these forces with masterful control and strategic skill? Are you prepared to use all your reserves of mental energy in the crises of your career?

A Mighty and Intelligent Power resides within you. Its marvelous resources are just now coming to be recognized.

Recent scientific research has revealed, beyond the world of the senses and beyond the domain of consciousness, a wide and hitherto hidden realm of human energies and resources.

A Process for “Making Good”

These are mental energies and resources. They are phases of the mind, not of the “mind” of fifty years ago, but of a “mind” of whose operations you are unconscious and whose marvelous breadth and depth and power have but recently been revealed to the world by scientific experiment.

Thus in many fairly independent ways we are brought around to this same idea of a common structure underlying all the many seeming diversities manifested by what we call matter.

“If you think that education is expensive, try ignorance.”      ~Derek Bok~

I often ponder about the principle of frugality and how to tame the itch for buying things which are not assets.

Defining an asset can often require the slight of hand of a trained, pencil-pushing accountant.  In one instance, however, you can with certainty know you have an asset – because that asset is none other than you

You are an asset which should never be neglected, abused or washed over by a desire to watch time-wasting TV dramas, play 10-hour gaming championships online or fritter away precious time in a 16-hour weekend snooze.

Investing in yourself is both essential for your spiritual and business growth.  The book not read, the audio message not listened to, or the seminar not attended can often be the small but significant difference between success and clear failure.

Prioritize or re-prioritize so that you put your self-education at or near the top of your “to do” list every day.  Brian Tracy, the premiere business coach in America, says:  “A minimum of 10% of your monthly net income  must be set aside for upgrading your skills.” 

Jim Rohn, another mega-successful business coach and my favorite, says pretty much the same thing as Brian.

Yes, success does leave traces.  All men and women of high, constant achievement take the course, attend the seminar, read the book or listen to the audio program.  They may give up temporary enjoyment, but the rewards are exponential for the sacrifice.

Cutting corners is not an option  for high achievers, and neither should it be for you and I.  Splurge on your education.  In truth, you are a walking corporation, regardless of whether you see yourself in such a light.
