Winner Defined
You are a winner if you keep achieving
your
stretch goals
and
are
happy in
your own skin.
Seeing Life Differently
The secret of winning in life lies in seeing life
differently - in its different shades and outcomes.
"Life
becomes a path that leads to
achievements.
Winners do not value life as much as what they can do with it. For them life
is not a tedious journey from the womb to the tomb. It is a journey about
crossing milestones and looking forward to new ones."4
Changing Yourself
The best place to start is to
change yourself. If whatever
you do doesn't work, you must be flexible
- you must change your action plan if the current one does not produce the
required results. If you want other people to change, you must be
prepared to make the first step yourself. If you cannot change your
environment, you should
change your attitude.
Focus is Everything
To win, you must have a strong focus. You have
limited resources and must
use them in the most
effective way. What
is the best focus you can have?...

The Foundation of
Leadership: Achieving
Extraordinary Results
By:
Brian Tracy
When you take complete responsibility and
accept ownership, without making excuses or blaming others, you experience a
sense of control that leads to the personal power that is the foundation of
charisma. When you look like a winner in every respect, when you have the
kind of external image that others admire, you
build your charisma. When you
develop your character by setting high standards and then disciplining
yourself to live consistent with the highest principles you know, you become
the kind of person who is admired and respected everywhere. You become the
kind of person who radiates charisma to others.

Welch
Jack Welch
has been with the
General Electric Company (GE)
since 1960. Having taken GE with a market capitalization of about $12
billion, Jack Welch turned it into one of the largest and most admired
companies in the world, with a market value of about $500 billion, when he
stepped down as its CEO 20 years later, in 2000.
Although Jack Welch is "the
celebrated
leader of a global manufacturer often noted for its technological
prowess, he has utilized a very human process to

pivotal force in
organizational change,
Welch created a model of exceptional
performance every
corporate leader can learn from.

3Ss of Winning in Business
Develop a Clear Vision
The one quality that all
leaders
have in common is that they have a
clear and exciting vision for the future. This is something that only the
leader can do. Only the leader can think about the future and
plan for the future each day.
Success is 99% Failure
To err is human. If there is no mistake, there
is no initiative. Not to admit a mistake or a
failure is a sign of weakness.
Remember always the
NLP presupposition: "There is no failure, only
feedback." Through
mistakes to success – that's really what experience means. Mistakes can be
your most effective teacher.
"Just like a great building stands on a strong foundation, so does
success.
And the foundation of success is
attitude."...

Take Risks
The biggest risk is not taking risks. If you
venture nothing, you win nothing.
"Security is mostly a superstition. It
does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience
it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life
is either a daring adventure or nothing," says Helen Keller...
