Plant a seed and let it grow. Give yourself 30 seconds to write down the three most important goals long-term (they will be health, money and relationship). Write down big things you want to accomplish. Then write out 7 seven that can put you in that direction. Then, write out 7 things of each of those things. Now you have 49 small steps that you can take. Each mission starts with determination and a decision.
- "Have a goal for the best, never be satisfied with less than your best, try your best, and in the long run things will turn out for the best."
- "Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently.
- "The biggest goal can be achieved if you simply break it down into enough small parts"
- Henry Ford
Think of becoming rich, to apply it into yourself. The mass of people want to finish work before starting work. If you truly want to achive greatness you have to work when you work, and work smarter and harder than the rest. Stand out. Have the goal to be in the top ten percent.
Those high up in the hierarchy can be you. You can read the same books, do similar things and get inspired to do a similar journey. The fact that there are people that are better than you, proves that you yourself can become better.
Try new and more things. Learn new valuable skills. Successful people try, try and try. They fail and they try again. Because you can't know what you like and is good at, you have to try different things.
Do not wait for better times. It has never been better. Take a decision and do it. Things will not wait for you. The masses are waiting. You will not.

Brian Tracy is one of my self-development authords. His recommendations are more concrete than others in the field in my opinion. I have rated some of his other books higher because they had more content. This was a seminar that was transformed into a book for listening. Some of the exercises in the recording were not completely clear because it required a book.
Other than that minor point, I would definitely give this a strong 4 out of 5 stars. The true books of his are rated higher.
One of my favorite lines: Weakest key skill sets the height of your income. Very true!
Recommended listening for those looking to improve themselves!
