Motivation


I read this book which is very insipiring for me. It motivates me a lot!

And one of the keypoint that I learnt which stuck into my head I can remember vividly is this theory.

“You can do anything if you make achieveing them a must”

Yes!

This theory by Adam Khoo holds truth..

Deep truth.

Think of all the achievements that you have achieved.

All those achievements that you are proud to be associated with.

All the things that you achieve in life, or proud enough to call them achievements, happened because you make them a MUST for you to accomplish.

And the very reason that you make achieving that very goal a MUST, is because, you have no choice.

If you never achieve it, something bad will happen to you.

Example, if you have been smoking cigarate, finding it difficult to quit. Once something bad happen, like suffering heart problem, etc, you immediately quit.

Why? You have no choice, if you do not quit, you will die!

The ladies will agree with me for this instance.

If you have difficulties dieting, not maintaining the required needs.

Once you meet with your old friend and they say you are FAT, you feel insulted and begin to seriously diet and exercise vigorously.

A way to “force” yourself to lose weight is to vomit all the food you eat put away your loose clothing in the wardrobe and leave only clothing with 1 inch size smaller.

This way you will force yourself to diet :)

Okay… Today I am going to share with you a classic, old time story that clearly explains the theory, you can do anything in life if you make it a must.

The story goes this way……

China General

A long time ago there was a great General who was faced with a situation which made it necessary for him to make a drastic decision to insure his success on the battlefield.

He was about to send his army on shore to face a powerful enemy, whose men outnumbered his.

He loaded his soldiers into boats, and sailed to face the enemies on shore.

When they reached the shore, he ordered them to unload the soldiers and cargoes.

He then ordered for all the ships and boats to be burned.

Addressing his men before the battle, he said, “You see the ships and boats going up in smoke. That means that we cannot leave these shores alive unless we win! We now, have no choice – either we win, or we perish.”

They WON!

SUCCESS PRINCIPLES

Just like the General, we have to burn all our bridges if we want to achieve success.

There can be no room for retreat and we must have an attitude of, “Whatever it
takes”
, taking into consideration that we can have anything we desire provided we do not violate Universal Laws and the rights of our fellow human beings.

Do not dwell on the past. Move forward with confidence and we will surely see success, unexpected in common hours.
