Know what you want to create
Start with the best
Stop when it's done

Being willing to try out new things that push you beyond your limits
Trashing what doesn't work, even if it's emotionally difficult (and has taken years to build)
Always be a novice at something (always being in a position where learning is taking place)

I thought a little about this the other day and I came to this conclusion.

Having the ability to spontaneously live your life.

have a drive and a passion to go and get something and never stop until you get it. I'm in the never stop part now :)

Build equity - never work an hour for an hour's pay. Just keep going. Don't watch TV. :)

Be here now.

The less you want the wealthier you are.

Turn left when everyone else is turning right.

Thanks

I'd actually prefer it if you quote my name! And in general, copying without source is a bit soso.

- Being an individual (and just a tiny bit stubborn!)
- Visualising dreams then writing down goals and your action plan to get them
- Having an open mind

The following quote pretty much sums it up for me:


"There is only one success: to be able to spend your life in your own way."

- Christopher Lasch

I actually wrote a quick little article a while back that answers this question. I'll quote the response I had written for it. Here it is if you want to read the whole thing: http://www.squidoo.com/WhatSuccess

For me, I'd have to say my top 5 would be:

#1) Family. Always putting family first helps keep your business in perspective and makes for a happy life.

#2) Passion. Do what you love. Love what you do. If it doesn't make you happy, don't do it.

#3) Knowledge. Know how to do everything yourself, even if you have someone else to do it. A boss who doesn't know the business will not be the boss for long!


#4) Lack of greed. Love of money is the root of all evil. If you start putting money first in your life, you'll start losing your personal happiness. Seek happiness first, the rest will follow.


#5) Kindness. Be kind to everyone and never let the sun set on your anger. Forgive, forget, and seek not revenge. Always treat everyone as you would want them to treat you.


(PS, another poster who prefers username & link be used when being quoted :D :rolleyes: :) )
