IT'S NOT HOW GOOD YOU ARE, IT'S HOW GOOD YOU WANT TO BE

IT'S NOT HOW GOOD YOU ARE, IT'S HOW GOOD YOU WANT TO BE - PAUL ARDEN

Everybody will have dreams and want to be Good with Success in Life. In similar lines, I came across above book and found it has beautiful points to follow.

Here is the gist of Book.

1. Nearly all rich and powerful people are not notably talented, educated, charming or good-looking. They become rich and powerful by wanting to be rich and powerful.

2. Your vision of where or who you want to be is the greatest asset you have. Without having a goal it's difficult to score.

3. All creative people need something to rebel against, it's what gives their lives excitement, and it's creative people who make the clients' lives exciting.

4. There is no instant solution, to become good. It is only through experience and mistakes.

5. You can achieve the unachievable. Always aim beyond what you are capable of. Try to do things that you are incapable of.

6. Always dream about how good you want to be.

7. Energy is the 75 % of the job. 

8. Don't seek praise. Seek criticism. So that you can always improve your idea.

9. If You are involved in something that goes wrong, never blame others. Blame no one but yourself. If you accept responsibility, you are in a position to do something about it.

10. Give away everything you know, and more will come back to you.

11. Don't look for the next opportunity. The one you have in hand is the opportunity.

12. Eliminate the Negative.

13. Don't promise what you can't deliver. 

14. Know your client Aims for whom you are working.

15. Always show a client what he want's first, he is then relaxed and is prepared to look at what you want to show him.

16. Don't take No for an answer.

17. When it can't be done, do it. If you don't do it, it doesn't exist.

18. If you can't solve the problem, it's because you are playing by the rules.

19. The person who doesn't make mistakes is unlikely to make anything.

20. It's wrong to be right.

21. Don't be afraid of Silly Ideas.

22. How you perceive yourself is how others will see you.

23. It's not what you know. It is who you know.

24. Don't give a speech. Put on a show.

25. Rough Layouts sell ideas better than polished ones. Show the client a scribble. Explain it to him, talk to him through it, let him use his imagination. Work with him rather than confronting with idea. 

26. If you get stuck, use a different pen.

27. Don't hand over to a team hoping that they will produce the magic. It's for you to lead them along the path of enlightenment.

28. Don't be afraid to work with the best.

29. Don't try to win awards. Be true to your subject and you will be far more likely to create something that is timeless.

30. Success is going from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm.

31. The first thing to decide before you walk into any negotiation is what to do if the other fellow says no.

32. Those who lack courage will always find a philosophy to justify it. 

33. If everything seems under control you're not going fast enough.

34. We don't see things as they are. We see them as we are.

Finally at some point we need to draw line somewhere.
