chapter 1 the commodity of Kings the great end of life is not knowing but action success is the ongoing process of striving to become more if the opportunity to continually grow emotionally socially spiritually psychologically intellectually and financially while contributing in some positive way to others you shape your perceptions or someone shapes them for you you do what you want to do or you respond to someone else’s plan for you ultimate power is the ability to produce the results you desire most and create value for others in the process power is the ability to change your life to shape your perceptions to make things that work for you and not against you real power is shared not imposed we all produce two forms of communication from which the experience of our lives is fashioned first we conduct internal communications those things we picture say and feel or within ourselves secondly we experience external communications words tonalities facial expressions body postures and physical actions to communicate with the world every communication we make is an action a cause setting motion and all communication have some kind of effect on ourselves and on others communication is power those who have mastered its effective use can change their own experience of the world and the world’s experience of them or behavior and feelings find the original roots in some form of communication how you feel is not the result of what is happening in your life it is the interpretation of what is happening the quality of our lives is determined not by what happens to us but rather by what we do about what happens you were the one who decides how we feel and act based upon the way you choose to perceive in your life nothing has any meaning except the meaning we give it most of us have turned this process of interpretation on automatic but we can take that power back and immediately change our experience of the world for every disappoint effort there is a multiple reward know what your outcome is to find precisely what you want the second step is to take action otherwise your desires will always be dreams you must take the types of actions you believe will create the greatest probability of producing the result you desire greatest fears and limitations are self-imposed there are seven basic triggering mechanisms that can ensure your success number one passion all these people have discovered a reason a consuming energizing almost obsessive purpose that drives them to do to grow and to be more it gives them the fuel that powers their success train and causes them to tap their true potential number two is belief people who succeed on a major scale differ greatly in their beliefs from those who fail their beliefs about what we are and what we will be many people are passionate but because of their limiting beliefs about who they are and what they can do they never take action that could make their dreams a reality and number three strategy a strategy is a way of organizing resources for clarity of values values are specific belief systems we have about what is right and what is wrong in our lives the more we believe we can accomplish something the more we’re usually willing to invest in its achievement number five is energy number six is bonding power nearly all successful people have in common an extraordinary ability to bond with others the ability to connect with and develop rapport with people from a variety of backgrounds and beliefs and last number seven mastery of communication the way we communicate with others and the way we communicate with ourselves ultimately determines the quality of our lives chapter two the difference that makes the difference the difference all comes down to the way in which we communicate with ourselves and the actions we take actions are the source of all results anything any human being does it can be modeled modeling is a pathway to excellence produce the same results if I’m willing to pay the price of time and effort what a person believes what he thinks is possible or impossible to a great extent determines what he can or cannot do the meeting of preparation whispering we call luck chapter three the power of state it is the mind that maketh good oriole that maketh rich or happy rich or poor if you can change a state you can change a behavior understanding state is the key to understanding change and achieving excellence our behavior is the result of the state we’re in the key then is to take a charge of our own state and thus our behaviors the key to power is taking action your behavior is the result of your state and your state is a result of your internal representation and it your physiology the ancestor of every action is a thought Ralph Waldo Emerson and chapter 4 the birth of excellence belief man is what he believes belief is any God in principle a dictum or faith or passion that can provide meaning and direction in life one person with a belief is equal to a force of 99 who have only interest that’s precisely why believes opened the door to excellence belief delivers a direct command to your nervous system when you believe something is true you literally go into the state of its being true beliefs are the compass and maps that guide us towards our goals and give us the surety to know we’ll get there without police or the ability to tap into them people can be totally disempowered they like a motor boat without a motor or rudder with powerful guiding beliefs you have the power to take action and create the world you want to live there’s no more powerful directing force in human behavior than belief to change our behaviors we have to start with our beliefs drugs are not always necessary belief in recovery always is the magic of drugs resides with the mind of the user not in the drugs the birth of excellence begins with the awareness set and beliefs are a choice the real nightmare is the effect the environment has on beliefs and dreams environment may be the single most potent generator of belief but it’s not the only one believing it can be done it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy most of our lives are governed by beliefs about possibility or success or happiness that we’ve picked up unconsciously over the years success feeds on success and generates more success and each success creates more belief and momentum to succeed on even higher scale life is both subtle and more complex and some of us like to believe Chapter five the seven lives of success the mind is its own place and in itself can make a heaven of Hell a hell of heaven our beliefs are specific consistent organizational approaches to perception belief one everything happens for a reason and a purpose and it’s services belief in limits creates limited people belief – there is no such thing as a failure there are only results there is no sadder sight than a young pessimist our doubts are traitors and make us lose the good we might often win by fearing to attempt whatever humans have learned had to be learned as a consequence through mistakes belief 3 whatever happens take responsibility but leave for it’s not necessary to understand everything to be able to use everything and belief 5 people are your greatest resource one man alone no matter how brilliant will find it very difficult to match the collaborative talents of an effective team believe six work is play the secret of success is making your vocation your vacation believe seven there’s no abiding success without commitment know your outcome model what works take action develop the sensory acuity to know what you’re getting and keep refining it until you get what you want it’s the quality of commitment that separates good from great and Chapter six Master in your mind how to run your brain don’t find fault find a remedy nothing has any power over me other than that which I give it through my conscious thoughts all human behavior is the result of the state way in and that our states are created by our internal representation the things we picture say to ourselves and so on there is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so a belief is a strong emotional state and certainty that you hold about specific people things ideas and experiences of life chapter 7 the syntax of success if you have an excellent model of how to produce a result you can discover specifically what the model does and duplicate it and thus produce similar results in a much shorter period of time then you may have thought possible chapter 9 is geology the avenue of excellence if you would be powerful pretend to be powerful change its physiology and you change your state our bodies are our gardens our wills our gardens section to the ultimate success formula chapter 11 limitation disintegrates what do you want there is only one success to be able to spend your life in your own way people are not lazy they simply have impotent goals that is goals that do not inspire them winning starts with beginning limited goals creates limited life so stretch yourself as far as you want in setting your goals you need to decide what you want because that’s the only way you can expect to get it you can find enough reasons to do something you can get yourself to do anything reasons are the difference between being interested versus being committed to accomplishing something to guide our actions we must create a step-by-step plan goals are like magnets they’ll attract the things that make them come true the brain responds most to repetition and deep feelings all results actions and realities we experience start from the creations in our minds the brain needs clear direct signals of what it wants to achieve your mind has the power to give you everything you want but it can only do that if you’re giving it clear bright intense focus signals thinking is the hardest work there is which is the probable reason why so few engagement Henry Ford one of the very useful things is to keep a journal which provide you with the ongoing record of your goals at any time in your life journals are great to review to study how your life has developed and how much you’ve grown it is if your life is worth living it’s worth living it’s worth recording having a clear precise direct target my powerful unconscious mind guided my thoughts and actions to produce the results I desired it worked for me and it can work for you we there is no vision people perish now you should do one final thing make a list of all the things you already have that we want skulls all the things in your ideal day you can already do the activates and people of your life are the most grateful for the resources you already have available to you I call this a gratitude diary Shakespeare once wrote action is eloquence chapter 12 the power of precision there are five guidelines for asking intelligently and precisely number one ask specifically you must describe what you want both to yourself and to someone else number two ask someone who can help you and three create value for the person you’re asking for ask with focused congruent belief and five ask until you get what you want when you study the lives of successful people you’ll find over and over again that they kept asking kept trying keep changing because they knew that sooner or later they would find someone who could satisfy their needs there is no expedient to which a man will not go to avoid the real labor of thinking chapter 13 the magic of rapport the ability to establish rapport is one of the most important skills a person can have to effectively communicate we must realize that we are all different in the way we perceive the world and use this understanding as a guide to our communication with other people have patterns of behavior and they have patterns by which they organize their experiences to create those behaviors chapter 14 distinctions of excellence meta programs all human behavior revolves around the urge to gain pleasure or avoid pain chapter 15 had a handle resistance and solve problems the man who never alters his opinions is like standing water and breeds reptiles of the mind the man who never alters his communication patterns find himself in the same dangerous I found the confusion is one of the greatest ways to interrupt pattern people fall into patterns because they don’t know how to do anything else everything that enlarges the sphere of human powers that shows man he can – what he thought he could not do is valuable through conscious and consistent awareness we can change our pattern of communication what does the Bible say we shall all be changed in an instant in a twinkling of an eye we will be if we want to be chapter 16 reframing the power of perspective reframing the same stimulus changes the meaning sent to the brain and thus states and behaviors associated with it you run your brain you produce the results of your life reframing is critical to learning how to communicate with ourselves and with others all persuasion is an altering of perception you don’t like something change it you’re behaving in a way that doesn’t support you do something else and chapter 17 anchoring yourself to success do what you can with what you have where you are if you do what you’ve always done you’ll get what you’ve always gotten the key ingredient to success the ability to eliminate from your own environment triggers that tend to put you in a negative or an resourceful States while installing a positive one’s in yourself and in others section 3 leadership the challenge of excellence chapter 18 value hierarchies the ultimate judgment of success what are values simply they are your own private personal and individual beliefs about what is most important to you your values are your belief systems about right wrong good and bad they govern your entire life style they determine how you’ll respond at any given experiencing life they are the base that defines our responses to any given situation in life our values also change when we change goals or self-image people feel very uncomfortable and suspicious of individuals who have values very different from their own much of the conflict that people having life results from conflicting values values of the most powerful motivating till we have if a man hasn’t discovered something that he will die for he isn’t fit to live he knows too much about others may be learned but he who understands himself more intelligent he who controls others may be powerful but he who has mastered himself is Marius still louse who values change and people change and the only people who don’t change are those who don’t breathe chapter 19 the five keys to wealth and happiness
