Success Demands Action

All success is based on power, and power grows out of knowledge that has been organized and expressed in terms of action. The world pays for but one kind of knowledge-the kind that is expressed in constructive service.

It is not the schooling you have had that counts; it is the extent to which you express that which you learned from your schooling, through well-organized and intelligently directed action.

Every city, town, and hamlet has its population of ne'er-do-wells, and if you will analyze these unfortunate people, you will observe that one of their most notable characteristics is procrastination.

Lack of action has caused them to slip backward into a rut, where they will remain unless they are unexpectedly forced out and unusual action becomes necessary. Don't let yourself get into that situation.

Every office and every shop and every bank and every store and every other place of employment has its outstanding victims of procrastination who are marching down the dusty road of failure because they have not developed the habit of expressing themselves through action.

You can pick out these unfortunates if you will begin to analyze those with whom you come in contact each day. If you will talk. with them you will observe that they have built up a false philosophy, such as, "I am doing all I am paid to do, and I am getting by.

 Anyone who wants a chance may create it through action, but if they wait for someone to hand it to them on a silver platter, they will meet with disappointment.

I fear the excuse that the world does not give someone a chance is quite prevalent, and I strongly suspect that it is one of the commonest causes of poverty and failure..

AS I GROW OLDER 
I PAY LESS ATTENTION TO 
WHAT MEN SAY. 
I JUST WATCH WHAT THEY DO. 
-Andrew Carnegie 

Fortunately, most college graduates do not opt for such choices, because no college can bring success to one who tries to collect for what they know instead of what they can do with what they know. 

THE MOST OMINOUS OF FALLACIES: 
THE BELIEF THAT THINGS CAN BE 
KEPT STATIC BY INACTION. 
-Freyda Stark 

Men of action always feel uneasy when there is no work in sight. 
Men of action usually win-that is one of their distinctive characteristics.

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...
 Loss is painful, guilt can be devastating. Worse than losing one's dream is the knowledge that the loss was self-inflicted. Problems are solutions that have outlived their usefulness. Problems are pattern that were learned in emotional circumstances during one period of life and that now have taken an existence of their own. Many times, outdated solutions replay themselves in a variety of life situations, leaving people mindlessly repeating their mistakes in work, love, and trading. There can be no free will for people who are locked into patterns developed for past challenges. Successful traders are therapists both learn to do what comes unnaturally. The resolution to problems can be found in what people are doing when those problems are not occurring. The problem with many traders is not that they have problems, but that they are focused on their problems. It is this problem focus that prevents them from appreciating what they are doing right, that blinds them to solutions alrea...

So what is your money blueprint set for?

Are you programmed for managing your money well or mismanaging it? Are you a spender or a saver ? Wealth principle: The only way to permanently change the temperature in the room is to reset the thermostat. In the same way, the only way to change your level of financial success "permanently" is to reset your financial thermostat. You can become an expert in real estate or the stock market. All of these are tremendous "tools." But in the end, without an inner "tool-box" that is big enough and strong enough for you to create and hold on to large amounts of money, all the tools in the world will be useless to you. Your income can grow only to the extent that you do. Remember that the first element of all change is awareness.Watch yourself, become conscious, observe your thoughts, your fears, your beliefs, your habits, your actions, and even your inactions. Put yourself under a microscope. Study yourself. Wealth principle: Consciousness is observin...
