Living the Success Principles #4

Principle #3 in Jack Canfield’s The Success Principles is “Decide What You Want.” This, folks, is your vision. What do you want to be, do and have? My corollary on that is “Who do you want to be?” or maybe it’s “Who do you have to be to do and have what you want?”

Living the Success Principles #3

I haven’t written about my journey on the success principles in three months (oh my goodness!!!), and this is a good illustration about how time passes without forward movement. In other words, a vision without any action is a dream. To be fair and honest, I am doing between one and five things every day towards my big hairy goal, and my goal is aligned with my vision. In other words, I’m not just chasing the shiny thing.

One of the side effects of incorporating Principle #1 of Jack Canfield’s Success Principles is that I have become acutely aware of how our culture influences us to abdicate our accountability and responsibility, most especially what’s being played on the radio.

Living the Success Principles #2

I’m in the second or perhaps third week of working Principle 1 – Take 100% Responsibility for Your Life, and I admit, I am still stuck on the No Complaints rule. This is somewhat embarrassing since I harp on this one with my clients.

This is the first installment of my effort to integrate the 64 Success Principles from Jack Canfield’s book of the same name.

Last week, I went to a one day live workshop with Jack Canfield, and was considering, along with the accountability partner he recommended and the mastermind group that frankly I’m not in the mood to participate in, how I could execute on the principles better. I very much like the content, and the success is in the action, not in the knowledge.
