WHERE LUCK HAS BEEN FOUND
WHERE
LUCK HAS BEEN FOUND
In thrift and
foresight.
In thorough
preparation for one's life work.
In mental alertness.
In always being ready to lend a helping hand wherever and
whenever needed.
In being tactful and a good mixer.
In holding the efficiency ideal of oneself and one's
capabilities.
In downright, constant hard work.
In being ready for the opportunity when it came.
In courtesy, kindness, and consideration toward
everybody.
In helping oneself instead of looking to others for
boosts,
capital, or favors of any sort.
In doing one's work a little better than others did
theirs.
In not being satisfied with anything but one's best,
never
accepting one's second best or a botched job.
In always carrying some reading matter in one's pocket,
so
that spare time could be utilized while waiting for trains, or
for those who
were tardy in appointments, by reading for self-
improvement.
In being cheerful, no matter how dark the outlook.
In trying to make good in every possible way, while never
taking advantage of others.
In beginning the thing which something within one said
one
could and ought to do, no matter what obstacles stood in the
way; by
obeying one's good impulses promptly, before they
quit prodding one.
In never allowing oneself to believe that he was born to
be
poor, a failure, a mediocre sort of a man or woman.
In carrying the victorious attitude in everything,
looking like a
winner, talking like a winner, and radiating the confidence of
a winner.
In holding that the good things of the world were not
made
for a favored few, but for all God's children.
In substituting clear grit and persistency for the
advantages
which many others enjoyed from birth.
In believing that the best part of one's salary was not
in
one's pay envelope but in the chance to make good in every
bit of work that
passed through one's hands.
In the opportunity to absorb the secrets of one's
employer's
business; to learn for pay what he bought dearly, perhaps,
after
failure and an enormous expenditure of money and
time, and, possibly, the
shortening of his life in the process.
In keeping eyes and ears open, and mouth closed most of
the time.
In indomitable perseverance, a determination which will
never give up or retreat; in everlastingly pushing ahead
whether one could see
the goal or not.
In the right attitude towards life, towards one's work,
towards
everything and everybody.
In choosing one's company, associating only with people
who were doing their best to get on and get up in the world.
In the consciousness of one's partnership with the
All-Good,
the All-Supply, with the Infinite Mind.
In learning, through mental chemistry, to neutralize the
things which kill one's best efforts — fear, worry, anxiety,
jealousy, envy,
malice, touchiness, anger, and thus to keep
one's mind free for the larger
things.

Dhriti Shandilya
Some excerpts….
Raise Your Standards: Any time you sincerely want to make
a change, the first thing you must do is to raise your standards.
Location 136
Know that it's your decisions, and not your conditions,
that determine your destiny.
Location 686
The question is: which one of these beliefs is the true
belief? The answer is that it doesn't matter which one is true. What matters is
which one is most empowering.
Location 1289
Your mental
computer is ever ready to serve you, and whatever question you give it, it will
surely come up with an answer. So if you ask, "Why can't I ever
succeed?," it will tell you—even if it has to make something up! It might
come up with an answer like, "Because you're stupid," or
"Because you don't deserve to do well anyway.

“It's not only
the questions you ask, but the questions you fail to ask, that shape your
destiny.”
Anthony Robbins
(Location 3376)
Be careful not to
ask limited questions, or you'll receive limited answers. The only thing that limits
your questions is your belief about what's possible. A core belief that has
shaped my personal and professional destiny is that if I continue to ask any
question, I will receive an answer. All we need to do is to create a better
question, and we'll get a better answer.

Those people who
focus on what they can't control are continually disempowered.
