When Losing Is Not An Option
Accomplish any goal.
Step 1: Wake up in the morning.
Step 2: Realize that you are one lucky SOB to have woken up this morning.
Step 3: Put forth a super human effort in the pursuit of your goal.
Pretty easy. You can memorize the directions without much effort.
So what's the problem?
The problem is, most of us, most of the time, are all talk and little or no action.
If you want to be successful you seriously have to realize that right now, it's a great time to be alive, be focused, and be willing to grab the brass ring.
You need to "go for it" like your life depends on it. You need to be super motivated.
This is an example of what super motivated looks like:
Test Subject: I can't swim.
Motivator: Sure you can.
Test Subject: No I can't. I've taken swimming classes and just can't swim.
Motivator: Sure you can.
Test Subject: Where are we going.
Motivator: For a short boat ride.
Test Subject: We're pretty far off shore.
Motivator: Yes we are.
Test Subject: What are you doing?
Motivator: Throwing you overboard.
Test Subject: Hellllllllllllp
Motivator: Swim back to the boat.
Test Subject: (As he's climbing back into the boat) You SOB I could have drowned.
Motivator: You could have but you didn't.
Test Subject: I guess I do know how to swim.
Several times during my life I deliberately put myself in situations that could best be described as financial insanity. What I mean by that is that I put myself on the line to the extent that if I did not accomplish my goals I would lose everything. And when I say everything I mean everything that I had worked for my entire life.
You learn to swim pretty darn fast if the alternative is drowning.
Strive like your life depends on it.
Go the extra mile then go one more mile.
Refuse to give up.
Be loud, clear, upfront, sharp, detailed, focused, and vocal when working on your goals.
Become your own cheerleader.
Refuse to be average.
Push yourself.
Climb, crawl, drag yourself to the finish line. Just make sure you cross it.
Execute your plans.
Taste victory.
Taste success.
Visualize what it will feel like to have won.
Visualize what it will feel like to tell your family and your friends that you climbed the mountain.
Don't stop.
Don't quit.
If you want something bad enough then you can have it. Don't make excuses. Go after it, capture it, be victorious.
Don't let second place become an option.
Don't worry about what other people say. Other people are more than satisfied to see you fail.
You remain positive.
You take things one step at a time.
You believe in yourself.
One thing is for sure: If you give all you have towards the accomplishment of your goals, at the end of the day you will feel 100% better than if you made excuses for not giving 100%.

Hey - my name's Suzie and I found your blog through one of your comments over at ProBlogger. I'm a little bemused as to precisely what your blog's supposed to be about, but I like it a lot. Can you tell me more about what your "misson statement" (business cliche alert!
Oh, and two mroe things:
1. Can I subscribe via Feedburner?
2. How do you get that cool set of buttons at the bottom of every post? They're awesome!
Suzie.

Thanks for the comment Suzie.
I'm not sure I have a mission statement for this blog. It is only about 3 months old and I am still finding my "voice" on it.
You can subscribe to "The Masked Millionaire" by clicking on one of the many options on the right sidebar.
The buttons at the bottom of every post just are there. I think the blogging software I use automatically place them there. So I'm sorry can't help you there.
