CHARACTER IS ACCURATELY REFLECTED IN ONE’S MENTAL ATTITUDE. – Napoleon Hill
Without a strong foundation built on positive character traits, success will not long endure. It is virtually impossible to fake good character. Phonies are quickly spotted because they haven’t the substance and determination to maintain the charade. Developing good character begins with a positive attitude. Your desire to be a good, decent, honest, considerate person must first take place in your mind. When you make the decision to become a person of character, you will also find that you are much more willing to do the right thing simply because it is the right thing to do.

NO ONE COULD RIDE A HORSE IF THE HORSE DISCOVERED ITS REAL STRENGTH. THE SAME THING IS TRUE FOR PEOPLE. – Napoleon Hill
Horses are massive, gentle creatures who are by far larger and stronger than the men and women who handle them, yet they docilely obey the commands they are given. It doesn’t seem logical that a large, powerful animal would allow itself to be mastered by a human being, yet we have been able to use our intelligence to dominate the animal kingdom. You can use these same forces to allow the positive side of yourself to dominate the negative. A Positive Mental Attitude allows you to tap the source of great power that resides within you, enabling you to accomplish things you never before believed were possible.

IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO IMITATE A SUCCESSFUL MAN THAN TO ENVY HIM.
– Napoleon Hill
Modeling successful people is what will make you great. Napoleon Hill, Tony Robbins, Richard Bandler built their success by finding out what successful people do to become successful. NLP is founded on modeling success.
IF YOU WORK AS HARD AT THE TASK YOU DESIRE TO DO AS THE TASK YOU MUST DO, YOU WILL GO PLACES. – Napoleon Hill
Take action, that is the only way to get things done.
As Tony Robbins says, turn your shoulds into must musts or you will be shoulding all over yourself.
Too many people take as much time talking about what they want to do as it would take to get it done. Many people and Politicians, including John McCain, think that talking and making people feel good is the same thing as getting things done.
Our brains have a part of memory called mirror neurons. Mirror Neurons help us relate to each other, mirror neurons help with empathy. Mirror neurons also can make people think they are part of teams or clubs they aren’t part of. One of the reasons people get so involved in TV Sports is because their associations caused by their mirror neurons in overdrive. Instead of getting a rush of accomplishment from playing the sport of football they are getting the same rush from wearing the jersey and yelling at the TV while beer in hand.
Take the time to break the bonds of talking the talk and start walking the walk. The same amount of time and effort goes into both, why not have completed the task instead of saying, someday I’ll get around to it.
PROCRASTINATION IS THE BAD HABIT OF PUTTING OFF UNTIL THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW WHAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN DONE THE DAY BEFORE YESTERDAY.
For an achiever, perhaps the most dangerous, most destructive habit of all is procrastination, for it robs you of your initiative. When you put things off once, it’s easier to put them off again, until the habit is so firmly ingrained that it cannot be easily broken. Sadly, the effects of the habit of procrastination are also cumulative. Its cure is obvious-action. You’ll be surprised how quickly you begin to feel better about yourself and your situation when you get going on something-anything. As British prime minister and author Benjamin Disraeli said, “Action may not always bring happiness; but there is no happiness without action.”

Do people really know why they are doing what they have set out to do? The RPM method will let you see why you are doing what you are doing. RPM will also make you build a plan. Instead of dreams, you will build a map to a realistic future.
R Results
P Purpose
M Massive Action Plan
What is your Purpose for your goals? Ask & write down the answers. If you want to lose 15 pounds write down the the why. Most people want to burn fat to look and feel better. Write down every reason why you want.
If your Result needs more than 1 sentence to describe it, your result is too broad and needs to be narrowed down. Your result will only be a dream unless you put a time limit on it.
Now that you understand what you want and why you can build a Massive Action Plan. This plan will easily succeed because you will put together easy steps to get what you desire. If your MAP involves more than 7 steps you might be bitting off more than you can chew. Studies show that people can only actively remember 5 things plus or minus 2 & more reciently science says Mind’s Limit Found the limit is 4.
Everyone has a burning desire. Your friends and family may make fun of you about your “silly” dreams but we won’t. Think about what you would do with your life if you win the lottery. After all the travel and partying you will have to get back to doing something with your life. What will it be?
You will remember what your burning desire is after you play this game.
Determine an exact goal. It maybe to gain wealth, gain health, drop fat or build muscle or something all together different. Write down and develop a specific goal. How much money do you want to make? How will you feel when you are healthy? What body fat percentage will you be at when you have burnt enough? How will you look like in the mirror when you have reached your goal? What will you be able to do that you can’t do right now that will make you know that you have hit your goal?
Establish exactly what you will give to get your goal. Will you give more time to workout at the gym? Will you give extra money to your creditors to pay your loans off faster? Will you give yourself better food to shed those unwanted pounds? Will you give yourself more quality time so you can celebrate the success you are achieving?
Set a Definite Time for your goal to be finished. Have a calender hanging in a place where you can see it every day. Break your big goal into mini-goals so you can track your progress. Sometimes goals are too big and with mini-goals you can see if you are slacking or going for the unrealistic at this time.
Write this plan out and start today. On day 1 think of a mini-goal that is real simple that may only take 5 minutes to do and check it off as completed.
Read your goal out loud like you mean it at least twice a day. Stand in front of the bathroom mirror before brushing your teeth in the morning and at night. Repeat your goal with feeling and confidence knowing that it will be done. The more you speak your goals the more you will become your goals.
Life gives you what you ask so ask for your world of desires.
Get ready to receive because what you ask for will show up on your doorstep.
Be careful what you wish for because you will get it.
Imagine yourself successful. Think of all the positive things that will happen to you because of your success.
Reflect on your Past Successes. Remember how you satisfied you felt when you hit that last goal. Picture it in your mind, make that picture bigger and brighter. Think about the praise you heard from your friends when you completed your goal. Think about how good you felt when you completed your goal.
Set Definite Goals. The most successful people are those who are those who stay the course but are nimble enough to dodge and weave around unforeseen events. Have the balls to stretch for the sky but know when ego is getting in the way of success.
Respond to life with a positive outlook. Perception is everything. What we give to the universe is what we get. Playas only attract more playas. The only shortcut is to get go and let the flow begin.
The article is inspired the Napoleon Hill book “Your Magic Power To Be Rich”
There is no such thing as something for nothing. The major problem with the movie “The Secret” is that you can’t just wish for things to happen. You have to act to make things happen. Action is what creates the to riches.
“All achievement, all earned riches have their beginning in an idea. If you are ready for the secret, you already possess one half of it; therefore you will readily recognize the other half the moment it reaches your mind.” – Napoleon Hill 1937
