"The SIX KEYS TO SUCCESS" by BRIANG. JETT These keys will not unlock any opportunities of success without first having a strong and unfailingfaith in God or that Being which isgreater than you. Please don't go through life as your "own little god." 1. Attitude Bloom where you are planted. You have a choice to get back up aafter temporary set backs. Attitude is a small thing that makes a big difference! 2. Direction If you don't know where you are going, any road will get you there.Write your short term goals downon paper. I have discovered and continue to discover that putting your dreams and goals down on paper lock in or focus your belief that they can be achieved--even if you have to take a course correction in achieving your goals. Success comes in cans,failure comes in can'ts. 3. Values Explore what is important to you. Maybe it is family, friends, your spirituality or working hard at anygiven task. I can assure you that your priorities will change as you grow older. Very important that you value yourself and treat yourself like the valuable gift from God that you are. 4. Interests Birds of a feather flock together. This is to say that if you are hanging around winners or others with a "can do" mind-set, you'll likely adapt to this same kind of thinking. Remember- "SUCCESS LEAVES CLUES! 5. Commitment Feelings may change, commitments do not. "Success is getting up one more time than you fall." I have often wanted to give up, and then I must think to myself about what the consequences of giving up will be.Generally, this is more than enough of a motivation to make us stick to the task at hand even ifwe don't feel like it. When the taskis achieved, Whow!--IT FEELS GREAT! 6. Encouragement Be an encourager and comforter to friends that are feeling discouraged. I promise that you will not regret this as youwill be encouraged by one, if not many, when you are feeling down. Encouragement and love are contagious qualities that can change the minds of the most stubborn and "hard-to-get-al ­ong-with" people you know. I have seen it happen over and over again. Hang tough, press on, & NEVER, EVER, EVER, quit!
