RULE ONE—SUCCESS HAS A DIFFERENT MEANING FOR ALL
Success as a relative term
Success depends on planning and its execution
Success requires hard work and dedication
Success is a journey, not a destination
RULE TWO—HAVE FAITH IN YOURSELF
Confidence is key to all success
big enemy of success is fear

Establishing a goal is essential to success
RULE FIVE – TAKE CHALLENGES Be prepared to fail
Learn from mistakes
When you learn from failures they pave the way to success
Facing challenge is essential to success
It is better to attempt and fail than not to try at all
RULE SIX – CONQUER YOUR LIMITS
Turn minus into plus.
If we do not set any limits on our self we won’t have any.
Harnessing profit is no big deal; anyone can do it. Turning losses into profit is what makes us a winner.
To be a winner we must know that nothing is impossible.
RULE SEVEN – TAKE INITIATIVE
Be a man of action, do not hesitate to take the first step.
A good idea has no meaning unless it has been acted upon.
The worst enemy of initiative is lack of courage.
Do today what you plan for tomorrow.
RULE EIGHT – ACCEPT YOURSELF
Always have a high regard for yourself
Having high self-esteem is knowing your truth and honouring it.
Never try to be what you are not.
Outside forces never satisfy inner needs.
Its our personal perception of personality.
RULE NINE – BE DISCIPLINED
You cannot achieve anything significant in life till
you are committed to your work
To be committed to your work you have to be
disciplined with your values and be focused on
them
You should respect yourself and your work

accountable for itNever play the victim, it never helpsAnalyze your past situation and how you can change
for the futureIt is up to you to understand your role in your life and
work on itDon’t blame others, blame your own self to improve

responsible for what happened and how you can
change for the future.

on it. When you have your life in your control, you
can march to success.
