Definiteness of purpose

 Any human being who can be definite in his aims and plans can make life hand over whatever is wanted.

One takes advantage of the principle of definiteness just as one may build a strong physical body through constant, systematic use.

Anyone who adopts definiteness of purpose as a policy and uses it in all of his daily experiences cannot be induced to form the habit of drifting.

Says the devil: "Once any peson hesitates, procrastinates, or becomes indefinite about anything, he is just one step removed from my control."

"All habits, save only that the love of definiteness of purpose, may lead to the habit of drifting."

Love is a state of mind which beclouds reason, saps will power, and blinds one to facts and truth.

Everyone who becomes self-determining and gains spiritual freedom to think in his own thoughts must examine carefully every emotion that seems even remotely related to love.

Both love and fear are emotional forces of such stupendous potency that either may completely set aside the power of the will and the power of reason. Without will and reason there is nothing left to support definiteness of purpose.

People who gain and maintain the power must become definite in all their thoughts and all their deeds. If that is what you call hard, then they must be hard.

Weak plan have a way of becoming strong if definitely applied.

People who are definite in both their plans and their purposes never accept temporary defeat as being more than an urge to greater effort.

The best of plans sometimes misfire, but the person who moves with definiteness recognizes the difference between temporary defeat and failure. When plan fails he substitutes others but he does not change his purpose. He perseveres. Eventually he finds a plan that succeeds

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...

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...

Wealth File #4 Rich people think big. Poor people think small

Wealth principle: The law of Income: You will be paid in direct proportion to the value you deliver according to the marketplace. The keyword is value. It's important to know that four factors determine your value in the marketplace: supply,demand,quality and quantity. The factor that presents the biggest challenge for most people is the quantity. The quantity factor simply means, how much of your value do you actually deliver to the marketplace? Another way of stating this is, how many people do you actually serve or affect? Most people choose to play small. Why? First, because of fear. They're scared to death of failure and they're even more frightened of success. Second, people play small because they feel small. They feel unworthy. They don't feel they're good enough or important enough to make a real difference in people's lives. But hear this: your life is not just about you. It's also about contributing to others. It's about living true...
