Hi David,
Hope all is well.
Very, very true... Never give up the dream but Keep changing and adjusting until you get what you want .Change is good!!! As they say;The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting the outcome to be different.

Hey Barry,

Barry Sarner wrote:"Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more
important than any other one thing."
- Abraham Lincoln
WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THIS STATEMENT ???


It's true on two levels.

Level 1 - Doing something for the first time to succeed.

Level 2 - Coming back from failure and not resting until you've regained success.

The scares maybe deep. The wounds tender to the touch. But it will always be man's resolve or lack there of that defines the limits he is willing to go to, to gain or regain succeed.

Books, audios, videos, courses, seminars, webinars, & etc. are important and I can't get enough. But nothing can take the place of what a man must decide to do, deep down within himself, if he wants to succeed.

Dare To Be A Napoleon! Dare To Stand Alone!

Postby David Hurley » Sun Jul 11, 2010 9:02 am

Hi Barry,

Haven't chatted with you for a while! I'm fine thanks and trust all's well with you.

This struck a chord with me. Here's why:

Sometime this year I'm planning to read (an English translation of) a biography of Napoleon by the French Marxist historian, Georges Lefebvre. The introduction has this to say:

"There is a paradox that lies at the heart of George Lefebvre's magisterial biography of Napoleon Bonaparte... The author... was one of the great Marxist intellectuals of the second quarter of the twentieth century... Yet his ... Napoleon ... is emphatically of the 'Great Man' school of history so despised by Marxists. It is pure history from above and accepts that the actions and will of a single extraordinary man could counteract those of the proletarian masses that Lefebvre himself so idolised."

So, I wonder, who among us dares to be a Napoleon?

Evan may be getting close - and he has provided some great examples of entrepreneurial Napoleons in his video series.

Thanks David Glad to hear everything is good...

I've seen time and time again and up close and personal that the one very special difference in the success or failure of a person is the people around them ( i.e. strong employees, partner, positive friends, trustworthy family) and the level of desire to succeed.

Success = Thinking (Head) + Heart (Feeling / Interest) + Hand (doing/ action).

Hi Barry,

Thank you for a great post and to all the members for your excellent comments. I can only agree that attitude plays a big part. This business is about identifying the niche you want to work in, how you are going to get traffic then how you are going to get sign ups to your product or service.

Sadly. a lot of people give up early because their attitude is all wrong as they expect success without laying the foundations before they start and without the right attitude they are doomed to failure.

regards,

Mal.

Hi Mal,
You're very welcome. You're so right. Giving up is so much easier than forging forward.

You definately have to feed yourself daily with positive words, reading material and affirmations just as you feed your body.

It's also important to be discerning about the amount of time you spend around negative people. Find a circle of quality people (hand picked) with whom you speak on a regular basis - even if it's social media.

I start the day with a scripture in the bible (Proverbs etc) that has been helpful to millions hrought the ages without fail. I also listen to success audios especially if I'll be in the car for more than an hour.

It's got to be done daily! Absolutely.
