Why Proven Ideas Make You Successful

George was tired of being broke. Every day was a struggle. "How will I pay my bills? I'm going deeper into debt. I can't afford to buy anything." So George constantly worked on new ways to make money. "If I could invent a new can opener, all my money problems would be over." "Maybe I could sell funny hats on the internet." "If I found some investors, I could open a new underwater restaurant." George had tried manufacturing a razor blade that never got dull, building the world's largest tree swing and selling lamps made of salt. All his new ventures failed. To survive, he worked at McDonald's as an assistant manager. George felt he should solve his money problems with new untried ideas. Unfortunately, unproven ideas are often wrong. Affluence "Affluence* Attainment, consists of . . . Doing the things that won, not new things untried as yet." -- L. Ron Hubbard (Affluence: abundance; wealth)

Who Do You Want to Be?

Question: What is the best personality or the best identity for you to assume? Answer: Anything you want! A cheerful friend, a businesslike executive, a caring listener. Whatever is best at the time. Different circumstances require different attitudes. For example, to be a bossy manager at work might be appropriate, but you might drive your spouse crazy if that identity comes home with you. To be a rowdy sports fan at a game is great, but not who you should be when asking for a raise. The reason people have trouble determining who or what they should BE is because . . . they don't start with HAVE. "Children in the West are commonly asked `What are you going to BE when you grow up?' It is a silly question and can drive any child up the wall. Because it's the wrong question -- it hits the wrong end of the cycle." "The child is also asked, `What are you going to DO in life?' That's just as bad. It is quite difficult to answer." "If we asked children, `What do you want to PRODUCE in life?' we could probably get a workable answer. From that they could figure out what they'd have to do to produce. And from that, they could know what they had to BE. Then, with a little cooperation they would be able to lead a happy and valuable life." "A lot of people and businesses fail because they don't do this." -- L. Ron Hubbard

Awakening your inner genius

If you’d like to know what some of history’s greatest thinkers and achievers can teach you about awakening your inner genius, and how to find, follow, and fulfill your journey to greatness, then you want to read this book today.

See, you can score in the highest ranges of IQ…and fail to succeed in life. You can work incredibly hard…and never realize your dreams. You can stumble across beautiful opportunities…only to watch them wither and die.

There’s something else—something considered unfathomable by many—that lies behind greatness. And in Awakening Your Inner Genius, you’re going to be taken on an adventure to discover what that is, and how you can use it to transform your life.

You see, genius is a path, not a gift. Studies of history’s greatest geniuses have shown that there is a “genius code,” if you will. A combination of very specific traits that we can develop in ourselves, and thus, operate at a genius level.

In this book, you’re going to learn things like…

Do you hate rich people?

by Grant Cardone

 Are we becoming a country that hates rich people? Are we becoming a culture that frowns on the Financially Successful? 

Lets be honest about this.

This was the subject of a lot of discussion on my radio show today, The Cardone Zone and I wanted to share it with you because this may be something that is preventing you from achieving the success of your dreams.

You hear of a guy that was born into wealth and never had to work in his life ---- don’t you resent him a bit?
Our society has sayings that suggest resentment, envy, misunderstanding and disdain of successful people... "He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth," and "the meek shall inherit the earth," for example.

I hear people suggest that rich people are greedy, dishonest and the biggest stereotype, "Oh he may have money but he isn't happy." You are bombarded with this type of thinking every time you turn on the TV and hear Obama talk about how wealthy Americans need to pay their fair share or how the top 1% are somehow suppressing the rest of us.

Why do we do this as a society? And most importantly what is the effect on YOU because of these ideas or beliefs being projected onto YOU?

Επειδή σε περιόδους σαν τις σημερινές χρειαζόμαστε όση περισσοτερη τύχη μπορούμε να βρούμε παραθέτω ένα παλαιότερο και πολύ ενδιαφέρον άρθρο άρθρο που δημοσιεύτηκε το 2008, τη χρονιά που ξεκίνησε η παγκόσμια κρίση, στο Riders Digest.

Εδώ και αιώνες, οι άνθρωποι αναγνωρίζουν τη δύναμη της τύχης.

Κάποιοι πιστεύουν ότι η τύχη, καλή ή κακή, είναι κάτι που συμβαίνει απλά χωρίς να μπορούμε να το αλλάξουμε και κάποιοι άλλοι ότι μόνοι μας διαμορφώνουμε την τύχη μας. 

Με στόχο να ερευνήσουν επιστημονικά γιατί κάποιοι άνθρωποι είναι σταθερά τυχεροί ενώ άλλοι δεν είναι, ερευνητές έβαλαν αγγελίες σε περιοδικά μεγάλης κυκλοφορίας για εθελοντές και από τις δύο κατηγορίες. Ανταποκρίθηκαν τετρακόσιοι άνθρωποι όλων των κοινωνικών στρωμάτων.
