Chapter 1 Dreams of Destiny

• We all want to believe that we have a special
  gift to make a difference, reach out to others,
  to repair the world.
• Oftentimes, this is buried deep within us -- a
  sleeping giant waiting to be awakened.

3
Concentration of Power

• Most of us are unaware of the power we have -- if
  we can only focus our attention.
• Thou shalt not major in minor things.

4
How to Create Lasting Change

• For changes to be of any true value, theyve got
  to be lasting and consistent.

5
The Ideas are Simple

• First
• Raise your standards
• Write down all the things you will no longer
  accept or tolerate in your life.
• Write down all the things you aspire to become.

6
Finding the Right Paddle

• Next
• Change your limiting beliefs.
• Our beliefs are like unquestioned commands,
  telling us
• how things are,
• whats possible, and
• whats impossible.

7
Our Belief Systems

• Our beliefs act as our universal filters.
• We have to change our belief systems to make
  lasting change in our lives.
• We must be certain we can and will meet our new
  standards before we actually do meet them.

8
Adapt

• Finally
• Change your strategy.
• Find a role model and copy him/her.
• Theres no need to reinvent the wheel.
• Do something different.

9
Take Action

• Lots of people know what to do, but few people
  actually do what they know.
• Knowing is not enough. You must take action.

10
Mastery

• The five areas that impact us the most
• Emotional mastery
• Physical mastery
• Relationship mastery
• Financial mastery
• Time mastery

11
Chapter 2 DecisionsThe Pathway to Power

• Write your epitaph!
• Then work backward
• Ask yourself where you want to be.
• Then ask yourself how you will live today in
  order to reach that imagined future.

12
The Difficult is Done at Once the Impossible
Takes a Little Longer

• If we want to direct our lives, we must take
  control of our consistent actions -- we are our
  habits.
• Everything that happens in our lives begins with
  a decision.

13
Decisions vs. Conditions

• Our destiny is determined by our decisions not
  the conditions of our lives.
• You may not be able to control your conditions,
  but you can control your decisions.

14
Decisions and Excuses

• Making true decisions allows you to move beyond
  excuses and change every part of your life
  instantly.
• Your past does not determine your future --
  unless you allow it to.

15
Getting to Where You Want to Go

• Decide what you want.
• Take action.
• Notice what is working and what is not.
• Change your approach until you reach your goal.

16
Decisions are NOT Dreams

• Making a true decision means committing to
  achieving a result, then cutting yourself off
  from any other possibility.

17
Decisions are Power

• True decisions give us a sense of relief, a sense
  of clarity, and a sense of power.

18
Information and Power

• Information is power only when it is acted upon.
• Then, repetition becomes skill which becomes
  habit.

19
Control Your Destiny

• The three decisions that control your destiny
  are
• What you focus on.
• What things mean to you.
• What you do to create the results you desire.

20
Do Not Follow the Crowd!

• Make a plan or youll follow the crowd.
• Plans are based upon decisions.
• Decisions are based upon
• Your core beliefs
• Your life values
• Your references
• Habitual questions you ask yourself.
• Emotional states you experience in each moment.

21
The Process of Success

• Success is the result of good judgment.
• Good judgment is the result of experience.
• Experience is often the result of bad judgment.
• Expect to make mistakes on your journey toward
  success.

22
Mastery

• Mastery takes as long as you want it to take.
• There are no failures in life there are only
  results.
• If you dont get the results you want, learn from
  your experience in order to make better decisions
  in the future.

23
Long-Term Focus

• Most of the challenges we experience come from
  short-term focus.
• Success or failure are not overnight experiences.

24
Spirituality

• What to do in tough times?
• Remember that G-ds delays are not G-ds
  denials.
• No season lasts forever.

25
Exercising Your Power

• Remember the power of making decisions.
• The hardest step to achieving anything is
  deciding to.
• Make decisions often, practice them.
• Learn from your decisions.
• Stay committed but stay flexible in your
  approach.
• Enjoy.
