When people 'succeed' they tend to party, when they 'fail' they tend to ponder.

To measure success with material things is failure!

Ultimately the way to win the game of life, is found in only one thing: Our ability to choose meaning in any life circumstance. Become the master of meaning and you master your life.

The "I've tried everything" story ensures failure. You must create an empowering story that recognizes that everyone has failed a lot but successful people have found a way to rebound until they succeed.

The birth of excellence begins with our awareness that our beliefs are a choice. We usually don't think of it that way, but belief can be a conscious choice. You can choose beliefs that limit you, or you can choose beliefs that support you. The trick is to choose the beliefs that are conducive to success and the results you want and to discard the ones that hold you back.

Ultimately, no man or woman is happy unless they have found a way to contribute beyond themselves.

The number one key to success in life is to master your own state. If you can manage and master your states, there's nothing you can't do.
