Humility is a precursor of success!
Before you expect to experience any form of success you must take an accurate inventory of yourself. If you ever get to know yourself you will also know much about others. If you don’t believe it yourself, don’t expect others to do so.
Success is not measured by the amount of money you possess, the house you live in, or the car you drive. Success is being engaged in all aspect of life. To win in the battle of life your mind must be well organized, alert and energized. Put your mind to work. The mind is a muscle that needs to be energized. Gathering ideas from outside your daily environment makes the mind more alert and more ready to work with speed and accuracy.
We long for success yet resist change. Too many of us have gone into hibernation. When new ideas and opportunities come before us, we rise up and growl.
There is no reason why the average person should ever close their mind to new ideas. A closed mind becomes withered, narrow and stagnant. A stagnant mind is the breeding ground of fear.
Open your mind to new ideas! It may be the difference between your success and failure.
“You can’t concentrate on the reverse of an idea. A fear is a goal moving in the opposite direction from your desire.” – Denis Waitley
