Hoping that life will give you a break instead of taking responsibility for your actions and thoughts is a flaw. If you want to build a great fortune, here are the key takeaways.
"It is what you think that matters."
Thoughts are powerful and will translate into means when mixed with a sense of purpose, persistence, and a desire to achieve. However, decision & execution is critical. It all starts with an idea, and you can control your mind. If you fail to manage your mind, rest assured you will control nothing else.
"A Burning Desire"
A pattern exists within the universe, and that is it does not answer to vaguely expressed wishes. It always responds and fuels a burning desire implemented through a detailed plan and persistence. The universe will throw itself on the side of the man who knows what he wants if he has the will and determination. There are a few methods of transforming your desire into action and eventually execution.
Fixing your mind to a specific amount
Determine what you are going to give in return
Establish a timeline
Create a concrete plan and start right away
Focus on the above 4 points and remind yourself of them daily.
"Become an unstoppable force."
Persistence is critical to life in areas one wishes to thrive. Once you cultivate the habit of persistence, you gain insurance against failure. It may seem like other people succeed faster than usual, but the grass is not greener on the other side. Stick to a set plan and set yourself up for success.
"Sexual Energy"
The transmutation of sexual energy and creativity becomes the primary source of intelligence. It requires a lot of willpower, the formation of new habits, and discipline.
"Conquer your fears."
Fear of something can be destructive and clouds your ability to execute or plan to your full capability. But remember, this fear exists in your mind, and with enough practice, you will learn how to control it. These are the six fears that deter a man's ability
Fear of Poverty
Fear of Criticism
Fear of Ill-health
Fear of losing someone your love
Fear of old age
Fear of Death
