get you where you want to go, no one else."

#2: Thou Shall Take Action

something they have deep inside them--a desire, a dream, a vision."

commitment to an unrelenting pursuit of your goal -- a commitment to excellence
-- that will enable you to attain the success you seek."
Earl Nightingale: "The key that unlocks energy is 'Desire.' It's also the key
to a long and interesting life. If we expect to create any drive, any real
force within ourselves, we have to get excited."
#4: Thou Shall Set Goals.
Tony Robbins: Setting goals is the first step in turning the invisible into the
visible.
Aristotle: First, have a definite, clear practical ideal; a goal, an objective.
Second, have the necessary means to achieve your ends; wisdom, money, materials,
and methods. Third, adjust all your means to that end.
Maxwell Maltz: People who say that life is not worthwhile are really saying that
they themselves have no personal goals which are worthwhile. Get yourself a goal
worth working for. Better still, get yourself a project. Always have something
ahead of you to ''look forward to'' -- to work for and hope for.
Brian Tracy: "Every single life only becomes great when the individual sets upon
a goal or goals which they really believe in, which they can really commit
themselves to, which they can put their whole heart and soul into."
Zig Ziglar "A goal properly set is halfway reached."
#5: Thou Shalt Create a Plan
Unknown: If You Fail to Plan, You Plan to Fail.
Napoleon Hill: When defeat comes, accept it as a signal that your plans are not
sound, rebuild those plans, and set sail once more toward your coveted goal.

the persistence to create new plans to take the place of failed plans.
#6: Thou Shalt Pay the Price
Vince Lombardi: "The price of success is hard work, dedication to the job at
hand, and the determination that whether we win or lose, we have applied the
best of ourselves to the task at hand.
Orison Swett Marden: Success is the child of drudgery and perseverance. It
cannot be coaxed or bribed; pay the price and it is yours.
#7: Thou Shalt Have Persistence
Calvin Coolidge: "Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence.
Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.
Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the
world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are
omnipotent.".
Orison Swett Marden: "There is genius in persistence. It conquers all opposers.
It gives confidence. It annihilates obstacles. Everybody believes in a
determined man. People know that when he undertakes a thing, the battle is half
won, for his rule is to accomplish whatever he sets out to do."
#8: Thou Shalt Believe
Denis Waitley: "If you believe you can, you probably can. If you believe you
won't, you most assuredly won't. Belief is the ignition switch that gets you
off the launching pad."
Anthony Robbins: "If you develop the absolute sense of certainty that powerful
beliefs provide, then you can get yourself to accomplish virtually anything."
Maxwell Maltz: Realizing that our actions, feelings and behavior are the result
of our own images and beliefs gives us the level that psychology has always
needed for changing personality.
David J. Schwartz: "The size of your success is determined by the size of your
belief. Think little goals and expect little achievements. Think big goals and
win big success. Remember this, too! Big ideas and big plans are often
easier--certainly no more difficult--than small ideas and small plans."

Winston Churchill: All men make mistakes, but only wise men learn from their
mistakes.

my successes. If you aren't making some mistakes, you aren't taking enough
chances.
# 10: Thou Shalt Create A Clear Picture of Your Future and Visualize It.
Earl Nightingale: Picture yourself in your minds eye as having already achieved
this goal. See yourself doing the things you'll be doing when you've reached
your goal.
Stephen Covey: Create a clear, mutual understanding of what needs to be
accomplished, focusing on what, not how; results not methods. Spend time. Be
patient. Visualize the desired result .
Robert L Schwartz: "The entrepreneur is essentially a visualizer and an
actualizer. He can visualize something, and when visualizes it he sees exactly
how to make it happen." --
