BE A WINNER - TEN TIPS FOR SUCCESS
Have you ever thought about how you want to live, and who you want to become? Everyone has
different values and puts them in different order of priority, so what works for others may not be
your own recipe for success.
To remind yourself about what your life is all about, I recommend taking the time to write down
ten principles that you consider most important. It is easy to get off-track at times, but if you keep
your personal values in sight it is much easier live by them. (After all, what is the point in getting
out of bed every day if not to live a life of value?).
Selecting only ten principles is certainly difficult, but well worth doing. Mine are clearly visible
from my computer where I work every day. Why don't you do the same?
