Success doesn’t have a magic formula



If your’ looking at the perfect way to have success, it is not there. Every one of us has to find our own way. I am not saying there are certain things that you have to do to achieve success in your life, but there are things if you do will help.

One is to learn what you do best and become the very best at that as you can. By being the very best you will stand out. You won’t have to go around telling other how good you are because they’ll see how good you are and want to be around you so they can learn from you.

Listen and listen some more. I have said this millions of time you learn more from listening than you do from talking. This doesn’t mean that you believe everything you hear, but by listening you get to see more sides of issues, then you can make up your mind.

Don’t be afraid to ask questions. As a very smart man once told me, there are no bad questions, but by asking questions, you clarity things so you can have a better understanding. You will also learn things that you might not otherwise have learned.
You build your own success and part of your success has to start with knowing what success means to you. Once you know that you have made a big step forward in the journey of success.

This is not the magic part, but here are some things that might be helpful to you.
Know what you good at and work at getting better at it
Set your success goals and objectives
Create a plan on how your’ going to reach your goals
Have benchmarks that let you know you are on the right track
Review your goals and objective and adjust as needed
Smell the roses along the way

The list could be longer, but if you follow these items you will be on your way to obtaining what you looking for in life. As you can see there is no magic formula, but series of steps that will get you the success you are looking for on your life’s journey.

Happiness with health and wealth to you

Nothing replaces had work



I am not talking about pick and shovel type of work; I am talking about hard work of building you mind. Growing you mind is does take work and the more you grow the mind the more success you can have.

To me learning is rewarding. Being able to apply what I learn is so satisfying. Seeing the results of my labors help to give me the strength to go further.

Putting in the long hours to build a skill, such as using new software, helps me gain the expertise in using the new software. Once learned the software will save me untold hours of time, then I can put those hours to accelerate my quest for learning. The more I know about a subject that I feel is important the more I can use it to achieve my dreams
.
It can be hard work keeping your body in shape, but it pays many dividends. You will be healthier. You’ll be able to do more strenuous activities. And you will be building your mind. Yes it has been found the better shape you keep you self in the more power you build in your brain.

Friendships are so important. Maintaining and gaining new friends takes work. One you have to understand your friends. All friends are not the same. Some need more time to talk and you listen. Others want to be around you. Still others want to hear your needs, so they can help you.

Like anything in life you get what you put into it. If you put time in building your mind, building your body and building your friendship, you life will be a rich one.

Happiness with health and wealth to you

Building on your success



Look at what you have already succeeded in. That is the first step. Take a personal assessment of your strengths and where you have had success using them.
You should also do and assessment of your weakness. It has long been know that you get more benefit on building on your strength than trying to build on your weaknesses, but it is good to know your weaknesses.

You have to be brutally honest with yourself when assessing you strengths and weaknesses. Once you have completed the assessment, bounce it off a good friend that you trust and have confidence in. If this person is comfortable with you assessment of your strengths and weaknesses you can now move on to build on your strengths to build further success.

You might find that you can build you knowledge base in the areas you can achieve future successes. If you just take 30 minutes a day of study in you chosen area, in 6 months you well know more about your topic for success than 95% of the rest of the world.

Don’t stop learning after six month, but continue to further expand you expertise. Now that you are the expert on this topic, start to let the world know. Create a blog on the topic, twitter about it, create a fan page about on face book and start a letter that helps other stay up to date on you field of expertise.

Ask your friends for assistance and make sure you help them. You will be surprised how many of your fiends want you to succeed.

There are some many for you to let the world know about you and how you can be of help to many. Let you imagination, go then put together a plan on furthering your success

Take your strengths and keep making the next step to your successful journey in life. As Confucius said” you can’t walk a thousand miles without taking the first step.”

Happiness with health and wealth to you

Boy does time go fast



My grandma told me, when she was in her nineties, as you grow older time goes by faster and faster. I was young and what did I understand. Grandma had more things wrong with her than you can shake a stick at. Even with all her ailments, she told me that every year goes by so fast.

Why do I share that with you, because she was right. I have seen this happening ever sense she told me. There are a lot of reasons for time appearing to keep going by faster.

Here is one example. Micki and I use to go down to the Florida Kay’s most summer weekends. The trip took about two and half yours. When we first started making this trip it seemed to take forever, then as time went on the drive didn’t seem so long.

There is a reason for this and it is getting use to the drive. At first we could see every power poll, every sign, and every light and then as time went on the scenery started to blur and trip didn’t seem very long.

As we travel though our journey of life, many things start looking the same, so our mind passes over time things that we have seen many times, so as we start to get familiar things times seems to shorten.

The point is to takes every advantage of time as you can. Do today what you should do and don’t pass it off to tomorrow. This is because we have only one shut at our journey so we have to take advantage of every bit of time we can.

That brings us to the concept, live in the present. Don’t put of what you can do today. What you do today will help you get to where you want to be tomorrow.
If you want a better tomorrow do as much as you can today. At times it might seem like time is speeding up, but if your’ always challenging you self by doing new thinks, you won’t have the problem of time passing you by.

Slow time down by doing new and more, you’ll get more out of life than you can imagine.

Happiness with health and wealth to you

Happiness in Eight Steps

Filed in About Happiness In 8 Steps, Blog, David/'s Talk, stroies on Aug.31, 2010

By David H. Lindemann

Foreword by Alvan Balent, M.D.

The title of David Lindemann’s book is, “Happiness in 8 Stepsl. live life in Happiness. Why not?”

And why not? Is it too simple to live your life in happiness? Too basic? Perhaps we need to be simple. Perhaps we need to go back to basics. Perhaps with this guide, the cynical negativity of today can dissolve like the words of the unpretentious song, “Don’t Worry, Be Happy!” Using our own plain common sense, we can smile, be polite, do service, take care of our body-mind-spirit, laugh, attract people we like, and in the process become reasonably happy.

“Live life in Happiness. Why not?” Eight steps to happiness. A start, leading away from Ego to the Self, perhaps to realization. Perhaps to the discovery that, “Everyone must figure it out of themselves.” And then perhaps, just to have a better day, every day.

David has discovered some basic truths. Use this simple, yet powerful beginning, and build on his words by adding your own sweet zest in your journey to happiness.

Happiness with health and wealth to you

Health is more important than wealth?

Out of 1036 people polled 939 voted yes. That is 91% and that a high percentage.
Now let’s look at why people value health so much more than wealth. This so obvious, but I have to say it. Without your health, it is harder to build wealth. When your’ not healthy, you have to spend so much time try to retain you health. Thus, you don’t have time to spend on building your own wealth.

Lets take a different tack. What if we were living in forest hundreds of miles from any even small cities. Having money won’t be that beneficial because you could live off the land. You could clear an area and you the trees you cut down to build a house. Then use the cleared land to grow thing to eat. You could also hunt to give you fresh meat. You could also fish in nearby streams and lakes.

You won’t be of need of a bank. Now I will make this sound simple, because we know there are a lot more things that need to be done, but the ideas are you and your family could survive and had a happy life, if you enjoyed that kind of live.

Now let’s look at reality as it is today in the USA. To survive you need money for you housing, food and clothing. We get that money by working. The work we do is based on our ability to achieve certain tasks. Now we tack that money to cover our living expenses.

Though we want to be healthy, we need wealth to live in this society. As much as health is vital to us there still is a strong need to make money.

Here, is my thought’, as long as we are healthy we don’t think of not being unhealthy, so we spend much of our time gaining wealth. But, when our health starts to fail, our whole mind set changes.

This is when we start to see the value of health. So this is my thoughts, live the healthiest life style as you can. Then work at building wealth and we all know that wealth is so much more that money, its friendships, knowledge and giving.

If you do these things, you’ll be in the 91% and wealth will find its way to you.

Happiness with health and wealth to you

There are a lot of ideas how to make or save money


You here these ideas on TV and you must have friends that let you how to make or save money. More than likely they all have some merit, but there seem there is always a gimmick.

Here is one never buy a new car, but buy a low millage used car. The claim is you pay thousand less than a new car from the price of a new car but get all the warranties. That is less the 10 to 12 thousand miles already on the car and the wear and tear on the car.

Then can you really believe the odometer reading? By law it is suppose to be the right millage but who really knows?

There is something else that is missing when you get a pre-owned car and that is the new car smell. They say you can get spray that gives you that smell, but I’ll; believe it when I smell it.

Here is another way to make money use a special credit card and they’ll give you money back. Whose money is this anyways? Let say I charge ten thousand dollar and I get 3% back that would be $300. It sounds good but there has to be a catch.
If you on the Internet you have seen these things “Work from home and earn up to X per day. No sales, no nothing needed just make money day and night”

Here is that latest, become a business owner with the help of a billion dollar company. You have the greatest products to offer you clients. That reminds me of a cabby in Chicago who when driving to the airport told me this story about having his own business. He told me a very smart guy in his neighborhood showed all the neighbors how to have their own business.

Most of the neighbors as well as him thought it was a great idea so they bought some of the products to sell.

Laundry soap or whatever it was, was suppose to be the number on product so everyone loaded up on it.

He said everyone in the neighborhood got out of the business when all their basements and storage areas were filled.

The Cabby told me he still has enough of the laundry product left to last for fifty years and most of his neighbors are in the same bolt.

I asked if he still sells these products and he said no because everyone in neighborhood has years and years of their own supply.

If there is all these way that don’t work then what do you do? Get creative. Become and expert and have people come to you. If some ones tell you they have sure thing. The sure thing is they’ll be walking away with some of your money.

Here is doing it on your own.

Happiness with health and wealth to you
