  34. 1:27goals you can't attract success without
  35. 1:30clear
  36. 1:32goals you've got to have a destination
  37. 1:34in
  38. 1:35mind a lot of people make the mistake of
  39. 1:38wandering through life without a clear
  40. 1:41Direction and they wonder why success
  41. 1:44seems
  42. 1:45elusive I'll tell you why success
  43. 1:49doesn't come to the wandering it comes
  44. 1:51to those who are clear about what they
  45. 1:55want and are willing to pay the price to
  46. 1:59get it
  47. 2:01now what is that price it's time effort
  48. 2:04discipline
  49. 2:06sacrifice but you have to start with
  50. 2:08that first step know what you want if I
  51. 2:12asked you right now what's your goal for
  52. 2:15the next 5
  53. 2:16years could you answer
  54. 2:18me could you give me a clear specific
  55. 2:22and compelling
  56. 2:23answer because if you can't then I can
  57. 2:26tell you right now you're not going to
  58. 2:29attract
  59. 2:31success you've got to be
  60. 2:34clear Clarity leads to action and action
  61. 2:38leads to
  62. 2:40results when you know what you want the
  63. 2:43path becomes
  64. 2:44clearer now don't get me wrong the path
  65. 2:46won't always be easy in fact it rarely
  66. 2:49is but you'll be moving in the right
  67. 2:54direction and that's what
  68. 2:56counts success comes to those who are
  69. 2:59willing to take cons consistent
  70. 3:00disciplined action in the direction of
  71. 3:01their goals even when the going gets
  72. 3:04tough and believe me it will get
  73. 3:10tough but here's the secret tough times
  74. 3:13don't last tough people
  75. 3:15do that's why becoming a person who
  76. 3:17attracts success is so
  77. 3:20important you've got to become tougher
  78. 3:22wiser more resilient the bigger your
  79. 3:25goals the bigger the obstacles but the
  80. 3:27obstacles are not there to stop you
  81. 3:30they're there to make you
  82. 3:31stronger years ago I was broke I was 25
  83. 3:36years old and I had
  84. 3:39nothing I mean nothing in the bank
  85. 3:42nothing in my pocket and not much hope
  86. 3:44for the
  87. 3:45future but something happened to me that
  88. 3:49changed the course of my life
  89. 3:51forever I met a mentor Mr cha and Mr cha
  90. 3:56told me something that hit me like a ton
  91. 3:58of bricks
  92. 4:00he said Jim if you want things to change
  93. 4:03you have to
  94. 4:04change if you want things to get better
  95. 4:07you have to get
  96. 4:09better that was a
  97. 4:11revelation I had been waiting for my
  98. 4:15circumstances to change but what Mr cha
  99. 4:18taught me was that it wasn't about my
  100. 4:21circumstances it was about
  101. 4:23me I was the problem but I was also the
  102. 4:28solution if I wanted to attract success
  103. 4:30I had to become the kind of person that
  104. 4:33success would be attracted
  105. 4:35to so I started working on
  106. 4:38myself I started reading books listening
  107. 4:41to seminars seeking out mentors doing
  108. 4:44whatever it took to improve my mindset
  109. 4:46my skills my
  110. 4:49habits and slowly but surely things
  111. 4:52started to
  112. 4:54change why because I was
  113. 4:57changing and that's the key my friends
  114. 5:00success is something you attract by the
  115. 5:02person you
  116. 5:03become when I changed the opportunities
  117. 5:06changed when I changed the people I met
  118. 5:10changed when I changed everything
  119. 5:13changed but it all started with
  120. 5:16me let's talk about
  121. 5:19habits because if you want to attract
  122. 5:21success you've got to cultivate the
  123. 5:23right
  124. 5:24habits your habits determine your future
  125. 5:30you can have the best intentions in the
  126. 5:33world but if your habits are out of
  127. 5:35alignment with your goals you're going
  128. 5:38to
  129. 5:39struggle think about
  130. 5:41it if you want to be physically fit but
  131. 5:44you have the habit of eating junk food
  132. 5:48and skipping the gym are you going to
  133. 5:50get fit of course
  134. 5:52not the same is true for
  135. 5:55Success you can't expect to be
  136. 5:57successful if your habits don't align
  137. 5:59with SU
  138. 6:00success so what are your
  139. 6:04habits successful people have success
  140. 6:07habits they read they plan they take
  141. 6:11action they review their progress they
  142. 6:13get up early they stay
  143. 6:14focused they are
  144. 6:17consistent and that's a big one
  145. 6:20consistency it's not about doing
  146. 6:23something great once in a while it's
  147. 6:25about doing the right things day in and
  148. 6:28day out
  149. 6:30success isn't built on occasional effort
  150. 6:33it's built on consistent
  151. 6:35effort and I'm telling you that's not
  152. 6:38easy it's easy to get excited for a day
  153. 6:43maybe a week but can you stay excited
  154. 6:45can you stay committed for months for
  155. 6:49years that's where the magic
  156. 6:51happens it's in the
  157. 6:54consistency but here's something
  158. 6:57else not only do you need
  159. 7:00the right habits but you also need the
  160. 7:04right
  161. 7:06mindset your mindset is like the soil
  162. 7:09where everything else
  163. 7:10grows if your mindset is negative if
  164. 7:13it's full of Doubt fear or limiting
  165. 7:15beliefs it's going to be hard for you to
  166. 7:17attract
  167. 7:20success you got to believe that you can
  168. 7:23become the person who attracts
  169. 7:26success you got to believe that you're
  170. 7:29capable of achieving great
  171. 7:32things because if you don't believe it
  172. 7:35no one else will now don't get me wrong
  173. 7:38belief by itself isn't
  174. 7:41enough but belief is the
  175. 7:45foundation it's where everything
  176. 7:48starts you have to believe that your
  177. 7:50life can be different that your future
  178. 7:52can be better than your
  179. 7:55past I'm sure you've heard the saying
  180. 7:58whether you think you you can or think
  181. 8:00you can't you're
  182. 8:03right it's true your mindset shapes your
  183. 8:08reality if you believe you're stuck
  184. 8:11you'll stay stuck but if you believe you
  185. 8:13can grow you will
  186. 8:16grow that's why becoming a person who
  187. 8:19attracts success starts with
  188. 8:22transforming your
  189. 8:24mindset so how do you do that you feed
  190. 8:28your mind with
  191. 8:30information you've got to be careful
  192. 8:32what you're letting into your mind
  193. 8:34because your mind is like a
  194. 8:36sponge it absorbs everything around
  195. 8:41it if you're surrounding yourself with
  196. 8:43negative people with pessimism with fear
  197. 8:47guess what that's going to shape your
  198. 8:50thoughts but if you surround yourself
  199. 8:52with positive influences if you read
  200. 8:55books that inspire you if you spend time
  201. 8:59with people who challenge you to be
  202. 9:00better your mindset will shift it has
  203. 9:06to you'll start thinking differently and
  204. 9:09when you start thinking differently
  205. 9:12you'll start acting differently and when
  206. 9:14you start acting differently you'll
  207. 9:18start attracting different
  208. 9:20results Now relationships can be a big
  209. 9:23part of
  210. 9:24this the people you surround yourself
  211. 9:27with have a massive influence on who you
  212. 9:29become
  213. 9:31if you're hanging
  214. 9:32around with people who are negative who
  215. 9:35don't have goals who are content with
  216. 9:39mediocrity it's going to be hard for you
  217. 9:41to attract
  218. 9:43success you've got to surround yourself
  219. 9:46with people who lift you up people who
  220. 9:48inspire you people who challenge you to
  221. 9:52grow people who are on a similar path of
  222. 9:56self-improvement there's an old saying
  223. 9:59show me your friends and I'll show you
  224. 10:01your
  225. 10:03future it's true you become like the
  226. 10:06people you spend the most time
  227. 10:08with so if you want to attract success
  228. 10:12take a look at your
  229. 10:13circle who are you spending time
  230. 10:16with now I'm not saying you have to cut
  231. 10:19everyone out of your
  232. 10:21life but I am saying you need to be
  233. 10:26intentional about the people you allow
  234. 10:29to to influence you surround yourself
  235. 10:31with people who have high standards
  236. 10:34people who are going somewhere people
  237. 10:36who believe in your potential because
  238. 10:38those people will push you to be
  239. 10:41better and when you become better you
  240. 10:46attract
  241. 10:47better when I started working on myself
  242. 10:50I noticed something interesting the
  243. 10:53people around me started to change not
  244. 10:55because they were changing but because I
  245. 10:59was
  246. 11:02changing some of the old friends I used
  247. 11:04to hang out with they weren't interested
  248. 11:07in what I was doing
  249. 11:09anymore they didn't want to read the
  250. 11:11books I was reading didn't want to talk
  251. 11:12about personal development success or
  252. 11:15big
  253. 11:17ideas and I I realized
  254. 11:21something not everyone is going to come
  255. 11:23with you on your journey to
  256. 11:26success some people will stay where they
  257. 11:28are and that's okay but you've got to be
  258. 11:31willing to let go of relationships that
  259. 11:34hold you back if you want to move
  260. 11:37forward you see every relationship is
  261. 11:39like a force either pulling you up or
  262. 11:41dragging you down there's no middle
  263. 11:45ground so ask yourself are the people in
  264. 11:49my life pushing me toward my goals or
  265. 11:52are they pulling me
  266. 11:54away be honest with
  267. 11:56yourself if you're serious about
  268. 11:59becoming the person who attracts success
  269. 12:03you need to align your relationships
  270. 12:05with your
  271. 12:07Ambitions now I know that's not always
  272. 12:09easy sometimes it's painful but success
  273. 12:13requires
  274. 12:14sacrifice you can't hang on to
  275. 12:16everything and expect to move
  276. 12:18ahead when I started hanging out with my
  277. 12:21mentor Mr scha he introduced me to a
  278. 12:23whole new group of people people who
  279. 12:26were achieving people who were
  280. 12:28successful
  281. 12:30and I'm telling you that CH that changed
  282. 12:35everything I saw how these people
  283. 12:39thought how they acted How They Carried
  284. 12:42themselves they were disciplined focused
  285. 12:44generous and optimistic they believed in
  286. 12:46abundance not scarcity and that kind of
  287. 12:48thinking it rubs off on
  288. 12:53you I started to think differently dream
  289. 12:58bigger and act with more purpose why
  290. 13:02because I was around people who were
  291. 13:03already living the kind of life I wanted
  292. 13:04to
  293. 13:05live so ask yourself who are you
  294. 13:08learning from who are you modeling your
  295. 13:11life
  296. 13:12after if you want to attract success you
  297. 13:15need role models who are already
  298. 13:18successful success leaves Clues my
  299. 13:21friends you don't have to reinvent the
  300. 13:23wheel find people who have already
  301. 13:25achieved what you want to achieve and
  302. 13:28learn from them study their habits their
  303. 13:32mindset their
  304. 13:34routines success is predictable if you
  305. 13:36follow the right patterns that's what I
  306. 13:39did with Mr
  307. 13:40cha I followed his lead I listened to
  308. 13:44his advice and it changed the entire
  309. 13:46trajectory of my
  310. 13:49life let's talk about value if you want
  311. 13:52to attract success you need to become a
  312. 13:55person of
  313. 13:57value success isn't attract to people
  314. 13:59who are just taking up space it's
  315. 14:02attracted to people who are adding value
  316. 14:06to the world and here's the key the more
  317. 14:10value you add the more success you will
  318. 14:14attract but what does it mean to add
  319. 14:16value it means solving problems it means
  320. 14:20helping others it means contributing
  321. 14:22more than you
  322. 14:25take successful people are problem
  323. 14:27solvers they find find ways to improve
  324. 14:30the world around them they bring
  325. 14:32Solutions not complaints they see
  326. 14:35opportunities where others see
  327. 14:37obstacles so ask yourself how can I add
  328. 14:42more value how can you solve bigger
  329. 14:44problems how can you contribute more to
  330. 14:47your job to your business to your
  331. 14:50community when you become a person of
  332. 14:53value people will seek you out
  333. 14:56opportunities will knock on your door
  334. 14:58why
  335. 15:00because the world rewards those who give
  336. 15:04more than they take and remember this
  337. 15:08the size of your success is directly
  338. 15:11proportional to the size of the problems
  339. 15:13you solve if you solve small problems
  340. 15:16you'll have small success if you solve
  341. 15:19big problems you'll attract big
  342. 15:24success but here's something else to
  343. 15:26keep in mind becoming a person of value
  344. 15:29you isn't just about solving external
  345. 15:31problems it's also about working on your
  346. 15:34inner self your character your integrity
  347. 15:37your
  348. 15:38ethics people who attract lasting
  349. 15:40success are people who live by a code of
  350. 15:43values they don't cut Corners they don't
  351. 15:45cheat they don't deceive they operate
  352. 15:48with
  353. 15:49Integrity why because trust is the
  354. 15:52foundation of all success if people
  355. 15:55can't trust you you won't get very far
  356. 15:57you might achieve some short shortterm
  357. 15:59gains but it won't last true success
  358. 16:03lasting success is built on trust so be
  359. 16:07someone people can
  360. 16:09trust here's what Mr cha told me he said
  361. 16:13Jim the way you do anything is the way
  362. 16:16you do
  363. 16:17everything that means if you cut Corners
  364. 16:20in one area of your life it's going to
  365. 16:22spill over into other areas if you're
  366. 16:25dishonest in one aspect that dishonesty
  367. 16:30will seep into other parts of your life
  368. 16:32you can't compartmentalize your
  369. 16:34character so if you want to become a
  370. 16:37person who attracts success start by
  371. 16:40looking at the small things are you
  372. 16:43keeping your promises are you following
  373. 16:45through on your commitments are you
  374. 16:48doing your best even when no one is
  375. 16:51watching because it's in those small
  376. 16:53daily decisions that your character is
  377. 16:56built and your character is what
  378. 16:59ultimately attracts or repels
  379. 17:04success now I want to talk about one of
  380. 17:07the most important qualities that
  381. 17:08attract success discipline without
  382. 17:12discipline you won't get very far
  383. 17:14discipline is the bridge between your
  384. 17:16goals and your
  385. 17:18achievements it's the ability to keep
  386. 17:22going when the initial excitement wears
  387. 17:24off it's the ability to stick to a plan
  388. 17:27to stay focused even when distraction
  389. 17:29come your way and I'm telling you there
  390. 17:31will always be distractions there will
  391. 17:34always be things trying to pull you off
  392. 17:38course but discipline is what keeps you
  393. 17:41on
  394. 17:42track discipline is what separates the
  395. 17:45winners from the losers the successful
  396. 17:49from the
  397. 17:50unsuccessful most people give up when
  398. 17:52things get tough but those who attract
  399. 17:57success they keep going they have the
  400. 18:01discipline to do what needs to be done
  401. 18:04even when they don't feel like it they
  402. 18:07understand that success is not about
  403. 18:08feelings it's about principles it's
  404. 18:11about doing the right thing day in and
  405. 18:13day out whether you feel like it or
  406. 18:15not now discipline doesn't come
  407. 18:17naturally to most
  408. 18:19people it certainly didn't come
  409. 18:21naturally to me but here's the good news
  410. 18:25discipline is like a muscle the more you
  411. 18:28practice it the stronger it gets you can
  412. 18:31build your discipline over time just
  413. 18:33like you build your physical strength in
  414. 18:38the gym it starts with small decisions
  415. 18:42maybe you wake up 30 minutes earlier
  416. 18:44than usual maybe you stick to your
  417. 18:46workout routine even when you'd rather
  418. 18:48stay in bed maybe you finish that
  419. 18:50project at work even though you're tired
  420. 18:54each time you make a disciplined
  421. 18:55decision you're strengthening your
  422. 18:57discipline muscle
  423. 18:59and over time it becomes
  424. 19:03easier but here's something else to
  425. 19:05remember discipline is about
  426. 19:08self-respect when you discipline
  427. 19:10yourself to do the things you know you
  428. 19:12should do you're respecting yourself
  429. 19:15you're saying I'm worth the effort my
  430. 19:18goals are worth the effort and when you
  431. 19:20respect yourself others will respect you
  432. 19:23too that's that's another key to
  433. 19:26attracting
  434. 19:27success people are drawn to those who
  435. 19:29respect themselves who have high
  436. 19:31standards for their own behavior so if
  437. 19:34you want to attract success raise your
  438. 19:37standards expect more from yourself
  439. 19:40don't settle for
  440. 19:44mediocrity here's another powerful
  441. 19:46principle that will help you become the
  442. 19:48person who attracts success and that's
  443. 19:51patience you see success doesn't happen
  444. 19:54overnight it's a process not an event
  445. 19:58and
  446. 19:59most people get frustrated because they
  447. 20:00want instant results but the truth is
  448. 20:04Success takes time it's like planting a
  449. 20:07seed you don't plant a seed today and
  450. 20:10expect a tree tomorrow you water it you
  451. 20:12nurture it you give it time to
  452. 20:15grow the same is true for your success
  453. 20:19you've got to be patient you've got to
  454. 20:21be willing to put in the work and Trust
  455. 20:23the
  456. 20:25process patience doesn't mean sitting
  457. 20:27around doing nothing it means continuing
  458. 20:30to work continuing to
  459. 20:34improve continuing to take
  460. 20:37action even when you don't see immediate
  461. 20:40results it means understanding that
  462. 20:42every step you take is moving you closer
  463. 20:44to your goal even if the progress is
  464. 20:46slow too many people give up too soon
  465. 20:50because they are not patient enough to
  466. 20:53see the fruits of their labor but
  467. 20:56success belongs to those those who are
  468. 20:59willing to wait who are willing to stay
  469. 21:01the course who are willing to keep
  470. 21:05going patience my friends is a rare
  471. 21:09quality in today's world we live in a
  472. 21:11time where everything is instant instant
  473. 21:13communication instant gratification
  474. 21:15instant access to information but here's
  475. 21:17the thing real
  476. 21:20success the kind that lasts isn't
  477. 21:24instant it's gradual it's built Brick by
  478. 21:27Brick over time time and the only way to
  479. 21:30see that success manifest is to be
  480. 21:32patient with the
  481. 21:34process there's an old saying haste
  482. 21:37makes waste when you rush through the
  483. 21:39process you miss the lessons you miss
  484. 21:42the growth and ultimately you miss the
  485. 21:45success but while patience is important
  486. 21:48it doesn't mean you sit back and wait
  487. 21:50for things to happen patience is about
  488. 21:53understanding that while you work the
  489. 21:55results will come in due time it's about
  490. 21:58trusting that your efforts will compound
  491. 22:00That's The Power of compounding my
  492. 22:02friends the small things you do
  493. 22:06consistently over time create massive
  494. 22:10results just like planting that seed if
  495. 22:14you water it today and the next day and
  496. 22:16the day after that eventually it grows
  497. 22:18into a strong tree same principle
  498. 22:21applies to your success every effort
  499. 22:27every disciplined action
  500. 22:29every small Improvement it all adds up
  501. 22:32and that's why patience combined with
  502. 22:34consistency is a recipe for
  503. 22:37Success now while we're on the subject
  504. 22:40of
  505. 22:41patience let's talk about
  506. 22:45persistence because if patience is the
  507. 22:47willingness to wait persistence is the
  508. 22:51determination to keep going no matter
  509. 22:53what you can't attract success without
  510. 22:56persistence life is going to test you
  511. 22:58you there will be setbacks there will be
  512. 23:01failures there will be moments when you
  513. 23:04question whether it's all worth it but
  514. 23:06I'm telling you I've learned persistence
  515. 23:10always pays off always the difference
  516. 23:14between those who succeed and those who
  517. 23:17don't is often just one thing
  518. 23:21persistence successful people aren't
  519. 23:23always the smartest or the most talented
  520. 23:26but they are often the most persistent
  521. 23:29they refuse to give up they refuse to be
  522. 23:31discouraged they keep going no matter
  523. 23:34how hard it
  524. 23:36gets tell me are you willing to fail on
  525. 23:40your way to success are you willing to
  526. 23:42keep going even when things don't go as
  527. 23:45planned because I'll tell you right now
  528. 23:48if you're not willing to persist you
  529. 23:51won't attract success you've got to be
  530. 23:55resilient you've got to have grit you've
  531. 23:57got to be willing
  532. 23:59to pick yourself up every time you fall
  533. 24:01down success doesn't go to the person
  534. 24:05who never fails it goes to the person
  535. 24:07who refuses to stay down so when life
  536. 24:10knocks you down and it will get back up
  537. 24:15dust yourself off and keep moving
  538. 24:17forward that's how you attract
  539. 24:21success now here's something else about
  540. 24:24persistence it's not just about working
  541. 24:27hard it's
  542. 24:29about working
  543. 24:31smart persistence without strategy is
  544. 24:35like running on a treadmill you're
  545. 24:37working hard but you're not getting
  546. 24:40anywhere you've got to be persistent
  547. 24:42with purpose you've got to have a plan a
  548. 24:45road map you've got to know where you're
  549. 24:47going and then adjust your course as
  550. 24:50needed sometimes when something isn't
  551. 24:52working it's not because you're not
  552. 24:54trying hard enough it's because you need
  553. 24:56to change your approach
  554. 24:59persistence doesn't mean doing the same
  555. 25:02thing over and over again and expecting
  556. 25:06different results it means staying
  557. 25:09committed to your goal while being
  558. 25:12flexible in your
  559. 25:15approach that's another quality of
  560. 25:17people who attract success they are
  561. 25:20adaptable they are willing to change
  562. 25:22their strategy when the situation
  563. 25:24demands it they don't get stuck in one
  564. 25:26way of thinking they're open to new new
  565. 25:28ideas new approaches new ways of doing
  566. 25:31things and that's
  567. 25:35important because the world is
  568. 25:38constantly changing what worked
  569. 25:40yesterday may not work tomorrow so you
  570. 25:43got to be willing to evolve to grow to
  571. 25:46learn new skills to embrace New
  572. 25:48Opportunities the more adaptable you are
  573. 25:51the more you'll attract
  574. 25:53success back when I was getting started
  575. 25:55in business I had this idea in my mind
  576. 25:58of how things should go I thought if I
  577. 26:00worked hard enough everything would fall
  578. 26:02into place but things didn't always go
  579. 26:05according to plan there were times when
  580. 26:08my strategy didn't work there were times
  581. 26:10when my business wasn't growing the way
  582. 26:12I wanted it to and I had two choices I
  583. 26:15could stubbornly keep doing the same
  584. 26:17thing or I could adapt and thank
  585. 26:20goodness I chose to adapt I started
  586. 26:23learning new ways to Market new ways to
  587. 26:26connect with people new ways to manage
  588. 26:31my time and my resources and you know
  589. 26:32what that made all the difference
  590. 26:35success didn't come the way I originally
  591. 26:37imagined it it came because I was
  592. 26:39willing to change to adjust to
  593. 26:44adapt so ask yourself are you flexible
  594. 26:48enough to adapt when life throws you a
  595. 26:50curveball are you willing to change your
  596. 26:52approach when the old one isn't working
  597. 26:55because the truth is life rarely goes
  598. 26:59exactly according to
  599. 27:01plan there will always be unexpected
  600. 27:03challenges unforeseen
  601. 27:05circumstances but the people who attract
  602. 27:08success are those who are prepared to
  603. 27:11adjust they don't let obstacles stop
  604. 27:13them they find a way around them they
  605. 27:16don't cling to Old strategies they
  606. 27:18Embrace new ones they stay focused on
  607. 27:21the goal but they're flexible in their
  608. 27:25approach now here's one of the most
  609. 27:27important pieces to attracting success
  610. 27:30the power of a positive
  611. 27:33attitude if you want to attract success
  612. 27:35you've got to maintain a positive
  613. 27:37outlook I'm not talking about wishful
  614. 27:39thinking or blind optimism I'm talking
  615. 27:42about a mindset that sees opportunities
  616. 27:45where others see
  617. 27:47problems I'm talking about a mindset
  618. 27:49that refuses to be discouraged no matter
  619. 27:51how tough things get you see a positive
  620. 27:54attitude is like a magnet for Success
  621. 27:57when you're positive
  622. 27:59you attract positive people positive
  623. 28:02opportunities positive
  624. 28:05results but when you're negative you
  625. 28:09repel all those things you can't attract
  626. 28:12success with a negative attitude it's
  627. 28:14like trying to grow flowers in a garden
  628. 28:15Full Of
  629. 28:18Weeds a positive attitude doesn't mean
  630. 28:20you ignore reality it doesn't mean you
  631. 28:23pretend everything is perfect when it's
  632. 28:25not what it does mean is that you choose
  633. 28:28to focus on the
  634. 28:30solutions rather than the problems it
  635. 28:33means you look for the lessons in every
  636. 28:35challenge it means you maintain hope
  637. 28:38even when things seem hopeless and I'm
  638. 28:41telling you that's a powerful place to
  639. 28:43be when you stay positive in the face of
  640. 28:46adversity you develop something even
  641. 28:48more valuable than success you develop
  642. 28:52character and character my friends is
  643. 28:55what ultimately sustains success because
  644. 28:58success without character is empty but
  645. 29:01success built on a foundation of strong
  646. 29:04character that's the kind of success
  647. 29:06that
  648. 29:08lasts so how do you cultivate a positive
  649. 29:13attitude you start by controlling what
  650. 29:16you focus on if you focus on the
  651. 29:19negative on what's wrong on what you
  652. 29:21don't have you'll feel negative but if
  653. 29:24you focus on the positive on what's
  654. 29:26right on what you do have
  655. 29:29you'll
  656. 29:30feel positive it's that simple what you
  657. 29:35focus on
  658. 29:37expands so start training your mind to
  659. 29:39focus on the good start looking for the
  660. 29:42silver lining in every situation start
  661. 29:44being grateful because being grateful is
  662. 29:47the gateway to a positive
  663. 29:51attitude when you're grateful for what
  664. 29:53you have you open the door for more good
  665. 29:57things to to come into your life but if
  666. 30:00you're constantly complaining constantly
  667. 30:03focusing on what you lack you close that
  668. 30:06door being grateful and positivity are
  669. 30:08magnets for Success here's a little
  670. 30:11exercise every day take a few minutes to
  671. 30:15write down three things you're grateful
  672. 30:17for it doesn't have to be anything big
  673. 30:20just three things that you appreciate
  674. 30:21about your life it could be your health
  675. 30:24your family your work the opportunities
  676. 30:26you have
  677. 30:29and here's what will happen over time as
  678. 30:31you train your mind to focus on the
  679. 30:32positive you'll start to see more and
  680. 30:33more things to be grateful for and the
  681. 30:36more grateful you are the more success
  682. 30:38you will
  683. 30:39attract why because a grateful heart is
  684. 30:44a magnet for
  685. 30:45miracles being grateful creates a
  686. 30:47positive energy that draws more good
  687. 30:50things into your
  688. 30:52life now this is a critical component to
  689. 30:55becoming the person who attracts success
  690. 30:58personal
  691. 30:59responsibility if you want to attract
  692. 31:03success you've got to take 100%
  693. 31:06responsibility for your life no excuses
  694. 31:09no blaming others no playing the victim
  695. 31:11you see successful people take full
  696. 31:15ownership of their
  697. 31:17circumstances they understand that while
  698. 31:19they can't control everything that
  699. 31:20happens to them they can control how
  700. 31:22they respond and that's the key how you
  701. 31:26respond to Life's challenges is what
  702. 31:28determines your
  703. 31:30success too many people go through life
  704. 31:34blaming their
  705. 31:35circumstances their upbringing the
  706. 31:39economy their boss their spouse anyone
  707. 31:43or anything but themselves but here's
  708. 31:46the truth as long as you're blaming
  709. 31:48something outside of yourself you're
  710. 31:51giving away your power when you take
  711. 31:55responsibility you take back your power
  712. 31:59you acknowledge that while you can't
  713. 32:00change the past you can shape your
  714. 32:03future and that's the mindset of someone
  715. 32:06who attracts
  716. 32:07success they don't wait for
  717. 32:10circumstances to change they change
  718. 32:12themselves they don't wait for someone
  719. 32:15else to make things better they make
  720. 32:17things
  721. 32:19better taking responsibility is the
  722. 32:22Cornerstone of becoming the person who
  723. 32:24attracts
  724. 32:25success you see the moment you shift
  725. 32:28from blaming external factors to owning
  726. 32:30your decisions your attitude and your
  727. 32:32actions that's the moment you unlock
  728. 32:35your
  729. 32:35potential it's the moment you stop
  730. 32:38waiting for life to get easier or for
  731. 32:42the perfect opportunity to fall in your
  732. 32:45lap and you start creating the
  733. 32:47circumstances that lead to success
  734. 32:50because my friends life doesn't respond
  735. 32:54to wishful thinking life responds to
  736. 32:57action to determination to personal
  737. 33:02accountability now I want to be clear
  738. 33:05this isn't about beating yourself up
  739. 33:07when things go wrong it's about owning
  740. 33:09the outcome learning from it and moving
  741. 33:13forward if you fail and you will fail
  742. 33:16from time to time don't look for someone
  743. 33:20or something to blame instead ask
  744. 33:24yourself what can I learn from this what
  745. 33:27could I have done differently how can I
  746. 33:30improve next time that's what personal
  747. 33:33responsibility looks like it's about
  748. 33:36seeing every setback as a lesson and
  749. 33:40using those lessons to grow stronger
  750. 33:43smarter and better prepared for the next
  751. 33:46challenge when I started my journey I
  752. 33:49made a lot of mistakes but I learned
  753. 33:52early on that if I wanted to grow I
  754. 33:55couldn't afford to pass the blame and
  755. 33:57one time I remember I was struggling in
  756. 34:00my early business ventures and it was so
  757. 34:02tempting to point fingers at everything
  758. 34:04the market the economy even the people I
  759. 34:08was working with but then I had a Moment
  760. 34:10of clarity I realized that if I was
  761. 34:13going to get anywhere I had to own my
  762. 34:15results good or bad and once I did that
  763. 34:19everything changed I stopped waiting for
  764. 34:22circumstances to improve and I started
  765. 34:25improving
  766. 34:26myself that that shift in mindset made
  767. 34:29all the
  768. 34:31difference here's the thing personal
  769. 34:34responsibility leads to personal
  770. 34:37empowerment the more responsibility you
  771. 34:39take for your life the more power you
  772. 34:41have to change it and that's where
  773. 34:43success is attracted when you're in
  774. 34:45control of your life your actions your
  775. 34:47future there's no power in blame but
  776. 34:51there's tremendous power in
  777. 34:53accountability so I'll ask you again how
  778. 34:57much responsibility are you willing to
  779. 34:59take for your
  780. 35:00success because that's going to
  781. 35:02determine how far you
  782. 35:05go but here's something else taking
  783. 35:09responsibility doesn't mean you do
  784. 35:11everything
  785. 35:13alone one of the biggest mistakes people
  786. 35:15make is thinking that being successful
  787. 35:17means doing it all by yourself that's
  788. 35:20not the case you need people you need
  789. 35:23mentors you need a team you need a
  790. 35:26support system
  791. 35:28what taking responsibility means is that
  792. 35:33you are in charge of finding the right
  793. 35:34people building the right
  794. 35:37relationships and putting yourself in
  795. 35:39the right
  796. 35:40environments you have to seek out those
  797. 35:43connections that will help you grow you
  798. 35:46have to be responsible for surrounding
  799. 35:49yourself with the right
  800. 35:53influences and that brings me to another
  801. 35:55key point if you want want to attract
  802. 35:58success you need to be selective about
  803. 36:01the people you allow into your
  804. 36:04life we talked earlier about the
  805. 36:07importance of your
  806. 36:10relationships but I want to emphasize
  807. 36:12this you have to be intentional about
  808. 36:16your
  809. 36:17associations show me the people you
  810. 36:19spend the most time with and I'll show
  811. 36:21you your future if you're surrounding
  812. 36:24yourself with negative small minds
  813. 36:28or toxic individuals it's going to be
  814. 36:31nearly impossible to attract success but
  815. 36:34if you surround yourself with positive
  816. 36:38ambitious forward-thinking people people
  817. 36:41who are striving for Success themselves
  818. 36:44you'll naturally start to rise to their
  819. 36:48level there's an old phrase I love iron
  820. 36:51sharpens iron it means that when you
  821. 36:54spend time with people who are sharp who
  822. 36:56are motivated who are driven they make
  823. 36:59you sharper they challenge you to think
  824. 37:02bigger to raise your standards to step
  825. 37:06up your game that's why it's so
  826. 37:09important to be mindful of your
  827. 37:11circle success is not a solo Journey
  828. 37:14it's a journey where you need to be
  829. 37:16surrounded by people who inspire you who
  830. 37:23challenge you and who hold you
  831. 37:26accountable to your
  832. 37:28potential now here's another key point
  833. 37:30on attracting
  834. 37:31success
  835. 37:33contribution it might sound
  836. 37:35counterintuitive but if you want to
  837. 37:37attract success you have to be focused
  838. 37:40on giving not just getting you see
  839. 37:43success isn't about what you can take
  840. 37:45from the world it's about what you can
  841. 37:48give the more you contribute the more
  842. 37:50value you bring to others the more
  843. 37:52success you will attract that's just how
  844. 37:54life
  845. 37:56works I'm sure you've heard this before
  846. 37:59you reap what you sow it's a principle
  847. 38:03as old as time if you sow generosity
  848. 38:07kindness and value you'll reap success
  849. 38:11abundance and fulfillment the people who
  850. 38:14attract the most success are the people
  851. 38:17who are constantly thinking how can I
  852. 38:19serve how can I help how can I make a
  853. 38:24difference they're not focused on what
  854. 38:26they can get they're focused on what
  855. 38:28they can give and in giving they create
  856. 38:31an environment where success flows
  857. 38:34naturally to
  858. 38:36them here's an example think about the
  859. 38:39most successful businesses in the world
  860. 38:43what do they all have in common they
  861. 38:45solve problems they provide value they
  862. 38:49meet needs they're focused on giving the
  863. 38:52best possible service or product to
  864. 38:54their customers and because they're
  865. 38:56focused on giving they attract
  866. 39:00incredible success the same principle
  867. 39:03applies to your life if you want to
  868. 39:05attract success focus on how you can add
  869. 39:08value to the lives of others when you do
  870. 39:11that you'll find that success starts
  871. 39:14chasing after
  872. 39:18you now you might be wondering how do I
  873. 39:21start contributing more how do I add
  874. 39:24value to the lives of others well it
  875. 39:27doesn't have to be anything Grand or
  876. 39:28dramatic it starts with small acts of
  877. 39:31kindness with showing up fully in your
  878. 39:32work with being a positive influence on
  879. 39:34those around you it's about looking for
  880. 39:35ways to serve in whatever capacity you
  881. 39:39can and here's the thing the more you
  882. 39:42give the more you
  883. 39:44grow every time you contribute to
  884. 39:47someone else's life you grow in wisdom

  887. 39:55become a person of value success is
  888. 39:58drawn to you like a
  889. 40:01magnet let me share a little secret with
  890. 40:04you one of the greatest joys in life is
  891. 40:08to be of service to others there's
  892. 40:11something incredibly fulfilling about

  894. 40:14impact on someone's life that you've

  899. 40:28meaning and purpose success is just a
  900. 40:32natural byproduct it's not something you
