Are You Still Learning?/The New Wisdom in Wealth and Health Workshops by Ben & Esther Pinkston (165 hits)
Continue learning. Realize the value of education and then cultivate earnestly, aggressively, ceaselessly, the habit of self-education. The more you know about any given aspect of your life, the more confident you will be. Donald Trump doesn’t have to know everything. He recognizes that he has employees who do. But he appreciates the importance of taking the time to learn what they know. He takes time to listen to their ideas. He takes time to think, to ponder the direction of Trump Enterprises. Do the same for yourself; take time to think, to read and learn. The availability of books is at an all time high, whether it be at your local library, or on the Internet. Research those things that affect your life and your work. Obtain the knowledge you need. Self-confidence is important, and something that can be learned and promoted in your life. Robert F. Kennedy said that “Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly.” It doesn’t come naturally, but can be earned. Arthur Ashe said that, “One important key to success is self-confidence.” Don’t be afraid of out-growing your job or your position in life. There’s a large place to fill when you have proved your ability to fill it. Are you up to the application of self-discipline that is required to achieve success in your personal life and in your business life? Those who reach the greatest degrees of success will be those persons who reach within themselves and call on their ability to self-discipline themselves in areas that create forward progress in one's life. Is that you? (Success Systems For Life)
