Reaching for More with Masters and
Millionaires Shortcuts: Mankind's fastest shortcuts to success
Measurable results.
Surely there is no debate that this is a broad, universally agreeable definition of success:
Measurable results.
Every human task fits this.
We can modify this definition, never eliminate it. Measured progress towards an identified benefit.
Whatever YOUR definition of success is, there's a way to measure it in your field of interest, correct? We'll identify precisely where you are on the map, and where you are determined to be in 100 days, and 1000 days. I'm proceeding on the
assumption that you can identify at least one thing, if not more, that you need to be world-class at before you die.
Without a doubt, the single most important thing you can do in the next
sixty seconds is to state, out loud, your determination that you can and will be world-class at ____________.
If you truly don't know what you'd pick from a genie granting you three wishes, or even just one wish, keep reading, by the time you're done the seed will be planted for you to water, and allow to germinate. It will
flower. You see, it's part of the human condition that everything we do from birth to death has only two causes: pain or pleasure. It is the motivation for every thought and act we commit to in life. Whatever it is you're doing, or thinking about doing,
is to avoid pain, or gain pleasure. For some people, even these two most primordial, basic functions get confused. If you're not too screwed up, there's still hope for you, provided you clam up and get busy on this day, before you next sleep. Fair
enough? Let's put it out on the table and clarify why we are spending time together. If you're reading this, I've been paid with satisfaction. I've done my part, that's how you've come to do some of your part --- getting to this page,
this sentence. I do want to be famous, as long as it's not in my lifetime. I've had a taste of minor celebrity, and didn't care for the blaring, glaring, obnoxiously intrusive spotlight. Even with the success of this endeavor you're now
reading, my identify remains shielded because this program is one of those rare ones: it's really not about me selling books or tapes, it's about you becoming a superstar in your life, whether or not anyone else knows it. That's up to you to decide.
I've read repeatedly where more than four thousand millionaires in the past century have directly credited Napoleon Hill for their becoming millionaires as a result of his unique "Think and Grow Rich."
It's common knowledge that more than four thousand lower and mid-level employees at Microsoft became millionaires because of Bill Gates' vision. Many thousands more made a million or more
dollars from stock in his company.
Larry Ellison, at Oracle, and other men, have been credited with directly creating literally thousands of millionaires. My most ardent personal goal is to have my work used as guidelines for superbly
effective shortcuts two and three hundred years from now. What can I tell you? I believe I'll observe it from somewhere beyond, hopefully what we call heaven. It's impossible for these PowerGems and SuperShortcuts to fail. Only we can fail to use them. Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to take over as pilot of your ship. You're the boss. Stop delegating so much authority to people whose face you don't shave, to events you didn't shape.
In a nutshell, it's your turn. The
only true value I get is for you to close your mouth, open your eyes and ears - to those who have done it better than you- and will continue to do it better than you until the moment you begin doing as what do... and reaping what they reap..
It's one of the most basic facets of science. Duplicate an action enough times, and you will assuredly duplicate the results of that action. Every time
you read something in these pages that strikes the "Aha!" chord inside you, jot it down!! Print it out. Put it on the wall and say it out loud five, ten, or a hundred times before you eat three more meals. Do it again
tomorrow. Take any one or more of these PowerGems and memorize them until the meaning of the words soaks all the way through. You'll understand more of the benefits even as quickly as a day or two. Jot down those that seem
tailor-made for you to gain benefit. Please remember that the entire point of this book is for you to use shortcuts that produce results quicker than you're now obtaining. Please don't complicate
things . Keep it simple. Every shortcut you take brings you one step closer. Write in the margins, write on the lines, just please don't be a moron and stop writing.
The more you write, the more you make.
