4. This Book Provides You 64 Life Changing Principles; Some
Of My Favorites Are Following:
6. If you continue doing the same things over and over again,
you will get the same results. If you want to change or
improve your life, you need to take different steps. You
cannot achieve different things doing the same activities.
7. To change and improve your life you need to take full
responsibility of your life, if things are not going the way
you want then ask yourself "What do I need to do
differently next time to get the result I want?"
8. Don't complain or blame others for your poverty. If you
are not rich and happy already, accept the responsibility to
live a happy and rich life without complaining about taxes
and politicians.
10. Each of us is born with a specific life purpose. To be on
purpose means you are doing what you love to do, what
you are good at and what is important for you. You need
to find out your purpose of life by discovering your talents
and strengths.
12. Try to find out which are some of the activities that you
enjoy doing and you are good at? Successful people take
time some time off to find their true strengths and
purpose of life and then they act in alignment with their
true purpose.
14. Once you have known what is your major purpose in your
life, you have to decide what you want to do to achieve
your life purpose. You have to decide where you want to
be, what possessions do you want to acquire. Most people
don't get what they want because they never take time to
define exactly what they want from their life.
15. You need to make a list of 30 things you want to have and
30 things you want to do before you die. It is not
important to figure out how you will achieve these goals,
You just need to write down your 30 major goals you want
to do and have.
17. You can easily achieve your life goals if you do this simple
exercise each morning, just write down your major goals
each morning. It is important to re-write your goals, write
your goals in the present tense as you have already in the
possession of the thing you desire.
18. For example if your goal is to have net worth of $1 million
by the end of 2015, write down I have net worth equal to
$1 million by the end of 2015.
20. If someone has achieved the same goals that you want to
achieve in your life, ask him to give you advice about how
he has achieved that goal and what actions you need to
take.
21. Mostly successful people like to share their experience
with others. Ask successful people the secrets of their
success, if someone refuses to tell you, don't worry just
ask someone else. Be clear and specific and ask repeatedly
if you need to.
23. You may wonder why some of the best players in the
world have coaches, I mean who can teach them how to
play better because the players are the masters of their
game. But they do have coaches
24. because coaches can give them feedback. The players
can't see their own faults. They need someone who can
tell them honestly where they are mistaking.
25. This principle applies in the same manner for you, you can
not see what you are doing wrong; ask your spouse, co-
workers and friends about the feedbacks. When you get
feedback don't feel bad, just try to improve yourself.
26. 7. Commit To Constant And Never Ending Improvement
27. You must remind yourself this famous quote "the most
unfortunate person is one who is not better today than
yesterday." You need to keep improving yourself each and
everyday.
28. The study shows that on average we watch television for
3-4 hours daily, if you can cut just 1 hour of that time and
dedicate that time to improve yourself. This one step can
dramatically change your life.
29. You should dedicate 20 minutes on reading a book, 20
minutes on meditation and 20 minutes on health exercise
daily.
31. The last 45 minutes of your day before sleeping are the
most important for programming your brain because it
replays during the night the last input.
32. Instead of falling sleep watching horror movies or terrible
news channels, read a motivational biography or a
spiritual book or a book of your field. You will sleep well
and your mind will become more sharp and active the
next morning.
34. In your daily life, do only those things that move you
toward your desired goals. You may be doing a lot of
meaningless things everyday that doesn't give you any
satisfaction and you are continually wasting your precious
time on those things.
35. Take some time off and try to figure out what is working
and what is not working. Do more of those things that
bring you joy and happiness and cut off meaningless time
wasting activities from your daily life.
37. Don't wait that something special will happen in your life
and you will achieve what you desire without setting goals
and taking actions.
38. You need to start now to improve your life even if you are
afraid of doing it wrong. Make mistakes, ask for feedback
and try to improve those activities next time.
40. The best advice of this book is that you should take 100%
responsibility of your life. If you are not getting desired
results, you need to change your actions. It is up to you to
create your life as you want by following the simple
success principles written in this great book.
