Important Thoughts You Must Have If You Want To Be Successful

1. Think BIG!
   
2. Like Your Business. It's a Prerequisite to Your Success.
   
3. To be successful you have to separate yourself from 98 percent of the rest of the world. So, you can get into that special 2 percent at the top, and it is not just by being smart, working hard, and investing wisely. There is a formula, a recipe for success that the top 2 percent live by and that you too can follow to be successful.
   
4. The only way to get rich is to be realistic and brutally honest. It is tough and people get hurt. So you have to be as tough as nails and willing to kick ass if you want to win. Most people are not cut out for this. You have to deal with a tremendous amount of pressure. You have to think large and be creative to solve big problems that scare the crap out of most people. People are going to try to steal from you and destroy you just for the fun of it. You have to stand up to them, fight back and kick their ass. You are on your own. You have to be able to bend but never break.
   
5. The biggest doers often suffer the biggest setbacks in life. So if you want to aim high, you have to have the guts to handle the inevitable bumps in the road. If you strike out, nobody is going to help you – not your friends, not the government. You have to look out for yourself, and the attitude is the key to surviving a setback.
   

   Take this from me and change your blueprint of Success:
   

• How much money do you want to have in five years?
  

  $5 million or more. Always shoot for the top. Every great athlete and every great billionaire goes for the gold, not the bronze.
  

• What are your financial dreams?
  

  I no longer have to work for money. I work because I chose to, not because I have to.
  

  Having unlimited passive income from my business and real estate holdings or other investments
  

• How much time do you spend each day building your wealth?
  

  Two Hours or more. Wealth comes from big goals and sustained action towards those goals every day. Many people start with big goals. Yet after they run into a few problems or get distracted by other things that compete for their attention every day, they lose focus on their goals. To keep your goals alive you must take action every single day for at least two hours. No one should care about your money and success more than you do.
  

• How much do you want to spend on your financial education?
  

  I'm determining to win the game. I'm setting aside 10% of my income every month to improve my skills.
  

  Finance and business are dangerous waters where vicious sharks are swimming around looking to feed on innocent novices. In this game, knowledge is the key to power. Spend the money necessary to know what you are doing or somebody will quickly be doing you.
  

• What do you do when you are faced with a difficult problem?
  

  Brainstorm until I find a creative solution.
  

  Rich people are rich because they solve difficult problems. You must learn to thrive on problems. I face problems every day. It is one of the things I do best. If you want to be in the top 2 percent, you must become very good at finding creative solutions to what appear to be impossible problems.
  

• What is your attitude towards work?
  

  I love to work. It is exhilarating and fun.
  

  There is no worse feeling than being trapped in a job you do not enjoy. You have to love what you do. To be a success the most important thing is to love what you do. You have to put in long hours and face enormous challenges to be successful. If you do not love what you do, you will never make it through. If you love your work, the difficulties will be balanced out by the enjoyment. The funs you get every day will keep you going when things get tough.
  

• What happen if someone tells you that you can't do something?
  

  I get energized, and will not give up until I get what I want.
  

  If you want to be a success, you have to get used to frequently hearing the word no and ignoring it. You will not be successful if you listen to nos.
  

  If you want to be in the top 2 percent, you have to get real. In business you are not dealing with your mother, your father, or your teacher. People are not looking out for you. They do not want the best for you; they are looking out for themselves. When most people say no, they are doing it to further their own ends. Do not let anybody stop you!
  

• What is your attitude towards people?
  

  I hired the best people and treat them professionally, but I watch them like a hawk.
  

  The world is a vicious and brutal place. We think we're civilized. In truth, it's a cruel world and people are ruthless. They act nice to your face, but underneath they're out to kill you. You have to know how to defend yourself. People will be mean and nasty and try to hurt you just for sport. My motto is "Hire the best people, and don't trust them."
  

• When someone intentionally harms you or your reputation, how do you react?
  

  I strike back, doing the same thing to them only ten times worse
  

• You are "on a roll" and everything seems to be going your way. What do you do now?
  

  Stay involved and focused on my main business or career, driving it to a new heights.
  

• What is your attitude towards the business of being in a marriage?
  

  I love my spouse, and I do not want it to end, but I signed a prenuptial agreement to protect my finances in case it does.
  

  Marriage is a contract unlike any other contract of life. You marry for love, but your signature on the marriage certificate is all about rights, duties, and property. It's a legally binding contract that knows nothing of love.
  

  If the love dies, all you have left is a resentful ex-spouse and the marriage certificate. There's nothing more terrible than an ex-spouse with a ten-ton axe to grind, and no agreement on how your common property id to be divided. It usually leads to all-out war that is more vicious than any legal battle in business and could easily lead to your financial and emotional ruin. Always get a prenup. It's just too risky not to.
  

1. When someone crosses you, my advice is "Get even!" That is not typical advice, but it is real-life advice. If you do not get even, you are just a schmuck! When people wrong you, go after those people, because it is a good feeling and because other people will see you doing it. I love getting even. I get screwed all the time. I go after people, and you know what? People do not play around with me as much as they do with others. They know if they do, they are in for a big fight. Always get even. Go after people that go after you. Don't let people push you around. Always fight back and always get even. It's a jungle out there, filled with bullies of all kinds who will try to push you around. If you're afraid to fight back people will think of you as a loser, a "schmuck!" They will know they can get away with insulting you, disrespecting you, and taking advantage of you. Don't let it happen! Always fight back and get even. People will respect you for it.
