The reason why you are defeated

Is because you do not have the power to reach a decision!

All your life you have been forming the habit of dodging the responsibility of reaching decisions. Until you have come how to where it is well-nigh impossible for you to do so.

Nobody is ever down and out until he is under the sod you may be temporarily down, but you can get up again.

Mastery of seventeen laws of success is the equivalent of an insurance policy against failure.
-Samuel Gompers

Time the mighty hand that rocks the eternal cradle of progress and nurses struggling humanity through that period when man needs protection against his own ignorance.

It is an important part of the leader's responsibility to induce people to subordinate their own ideas and interests for the good of the whole, and this applies to matters of a civic, business, social, political, financial, or industrial nature.

Success, no matter what may be one's concept of that term, is nearly always a question of one's ability to get others to subordinate their own individual interests and follow a leader.

The leader who has the personality and the imagination to induce followers to accept his or her plans and carry them out faithfully is always an able leader.

Leadership and imagination are so closely allied and so essential for success that one cannot be gainfully applied without the other.

Initiative is the moving force that pushes the leader ahead, but imagination is the guiding spirit which way to go.

It has been said that all battles in warfare are won or lost not only the firing line but behind the lines, through the sound strategy, or the lack of it, used by the generals who plan the battles.

What is true of warfare is equally true in business and in most other problems that confront us through life. We win or lose according to the plans we build and carry out, a fact which serves to emphasize the value of the laws of initiative and leadership, Imagination, Self Confidence, and a definite chief aim.

With the intelligent use of these four laws, one may build plans, for any purpose, which cannot be defeated by any person or group of persons who do not employ or understand these laws.

There is no escape from this truth. Organized effort is effort that is directed according to a plan that was conceived with the aid of imagination, guided by a definite chief aim, and given momentum with Initiative and self confidence.

These four laws blend into one and become a power in the hands of a leader. Without their aid, effective leadership is impossible.

Intolerance
If you must give expression to prejudice and hatred and intolerance, do not speak it, but write it in the sands, near the water's edge.

The bitterest intolerance grows out of religious, racial, and economic prejudices and differences of opinion.

The folly of trying to destroy one another because we are of different religious beliefs and racial tendencies?

Our allotted time on this earth is a fleeting moment. Why can we not learn to live during this brief earthly visit that when the great caravan called death draws up and announces this visit completed, we will be ready to fold our tents and silently follow out into the great unknown without fear and trembling.

Maximizing Your Profits with Scoring

SETTING YOUR MAXIMUM INTRADAY TRADING LOSS First things first: set a max intraday trading loss. There will be days when you just do not have it. Why do you think coaches pull their players when they are not playing well? They are more harmful on the field than off. When you are underperforming, you are hurting your team and your trading business. You need a system to yank yourself over to the bench. A stop loss is your answer. TRADING BASED UPON THE TIME OF DAY A good trader makes note of what time of day it is, when he trades most profitably, and adjusts his trading to fit such times. Your numbers at the end of the month will not reflect your true trading potential. Make the most trades with the most size during the trading periods that statistically are most profitable for you. Money saved during your weaker trading periods is money earned. Consistency The fact is that most trades you make will start working for you right away. But the new traders also hold stocks that are trading ag...

Self-Discipline

One must gain mastery over self the person who is not master of himself can never be master of others. Lack of self-mastery is, of itself, the most destructive form of indefiniteness. By mastering the three appetites responsible for most of one's lack of self discipline. The three appetites are (1) The desire for food, (2) The desire for expression of sex, (3) The desire to express loosely organized opinions. When a man becomes master of these three appetites, he has developed enough self-discipline to conquer easily those of lesser importance. Self mastery contempates sufficient control over the appetites to enable one to feed them what they need and withhold food not needed. Take the desire for physical food, for example. The majority of people are so weak in self discipline they fill their stocmachs with combinations of rich food which please the taste but overwork the organs of digestion and elimination. They pour into their stomachs both quantity and combinations of food which...

Blessing In Disguise

I used to hate my enemies. But that was before I learned how well they were serving me by keeping me everlastingly on the alert lest some weak spot in my character provide an opening through which they might damage me. In view of what I have learned of the value of enemies, if I had none I would feel it my duty to create a few. They would discover my defects and point them out to me, whereas my friends, if they saw my weaknesses at all, would say nothing about them. ACCEPT FAILURE AS A NORMAL PART OF LIVING. VIEW IT AS PART OF THE PROCESS OF EXPLORING YOUR WORLD; MAKE A NOTE OF ITS LESSONS AND MOVE ON.  -Tom Hobson  There can be no failure for the person who "still fights on:' No one has ever failed until they accept temporary defeat as failure. I am convinced that failure is Nature's plan through which she hurdle jumps those of destiny and prepares them to do their work. Failure is Nature's great crucible in which she burns the dross from the human hear...
