12 ideas to help you lead the field, any field you choose
Earl Nightingale wrote:-
If the grass is greener on the other side it’s probably getting better care. Success is a matter of sticking to a set of
common sense principles anyone can master.
Here are twelve ideas to help you lead the field, any field you choose: -
1)William James said, “Human beings can alter their lives by altering their attitudes.” Gratitude and expectancy are
the best attitude. It’s up to you. You’re responsible. Don’t take a defensive doubtful attitude toward yourself and
others. A poor attitude is a magnet for unpleasant experiences. We get what we expect and our outlook on life is a
kind of paint brush and with it we paint our world. It can be bright and filled with hope and satisfaction or it can
be dark and gloomy. The world we experience is a reflection of our attitude.
Don’t take the attitude of waiting for people to be nice to you – be nice to them. Don’t sit in front of a cold stove
waiting for the heat. Put in the fuel. Act first. It has to start somewhere. Let it begin with you. Attitude is a
reflection of the person inside.
2) The mind is the richest human resource. It is a gold-mine of ideas. Ask yourself every morning, “how can I
increase my service today?”
3) By setting specific, attainable, worthwhile goals you automatically place yourself in the top 5% of people,
achievers.
4) The most important physical aspect of man is his brain. Only man can fashion his life with his mind. Only man can think, choose and
reason. Only man can reach purposeful goals that were set.
5)Your rewards in life will always match the level of your service
6)Integrity is the seed for achievement
7) Successful people follow independent paths. They break away from the crowd. They join a smaller crowd. They
don’t have the television on all the day long. They use their time constructively. It’s easier to win! There is less
competition up there and the view is better.
8)How much time are you giving to self improvement? How can you sell yourself better; get along with others
more; increase productivity? How can you see more people every day? One extra contact a day is 250 extra a
year. That will certainly increase business. Will you be average or above average? Will you be good or great?
9)Money cannot be sought directly. Like happiness, money is an effect. It is the result of a cause, and the cause is
valuable service. Keep money in its proper place. It’s a servant and nothing more. It’s a tool. Do not emphasize
money or it will master you. Know what you want, and you will become, you must become what you think about.
Now, become the person who is worth the amount of money and reward you have established for yourself. You
will only move ahead when you are worth more than you are receiving. Seek to be worth more and income will
catch up to you
10)Specialize in areas of your own interest. Read for pleasure and you’ll profit. Systematically study your field and
you’ll reach your goals more quickly. You can also use video and audio programs. The English language has over
600,000 words. They enable us to translate our thoughts and ideas into language that can be understood. We
should also understand biblical and historical literature. Study about personal liberty and its price. Always be in
school. The more you learn the more you’ll earn!
11)Success will not be attributable to any one day, week or month but rather to the consistent, persistent, succession
of single days. Just keep your eye on your goal and continue to grow in competence. Just concentrate on each task
and do it as well as you can. One day at a time, one task at a time. One at a time in their proper order
12)The outstanding leader in any field is societies most valued person. Every organization needs leadership. You do
not raise morale, it filters down from the top. People will always reflect the attitude of the leader. Behind every
outstanding success is an outstanding leader. This leader works early and late and when not working is thinking
and planning.
