What Is Success?













What is success and are you successful? This is a question I often ask at some self-development clinics I host, I love to do this because of the array of definitions of success I get and the extent of their variations. Can we really talk about preparing for success without an understanding what success itself is?

Obviously I don’t think there is no right or wrong as to how we define success. Success is relative and the term itself is subjective, so what success means to you might be different from what it means to me or other people, and this is perfectly fine.

But may ask you, What is Success?

MIDAS TOUCH












I had the pleasure of reading MIDAS TOUCH a book co-authored by  Donald Trump and Robert Kiyosaki for some who don't have an idea about who they are visit the following site www.richdad.com and www.trump.com but here is the review of Amazon.com as regarding MIDAS TOUCH specifically;
 "In this title, two entrepreneurial Icons share experiences and insights into creating and building successful businesses. What makes some business owners wildly successful? What separates the entrepreneurs who build businesses from ones who just seem to create more work for themselves? How, exactly do the world's most prominent business builders seem to hit home run after home run? The answer: They have the Midas Touch. Donald Trump and Robert Kiyosaki believe the world needs more entrepreneurs. For the first time, two of the world's most successful and influential entrepreneurs will share their own Midas Touch secrets. Secrets that will both inspire you to find and fulfill your passion as well as provide you with the hands-on guidance you need to be successful. Through their real life stories of success, failure, perseverance and purpose, you'll discover how they do it and whether or not you have what it takes to drive your own entrepreneurial success."
I am an avid reader, I have consumed a great load of leadership, entrepreneurial, motivational, inspirational, books, e-books and blog in recent time. However, after reading through MIDAS TOUCH, I think it will be a great idea to recommend it to my blog reader - for everyone who fantasies owning their business and hence their time and equally for anyone who's already taking the bull by the horn at the realm of entrepreneurship.

What makes a successful entrepreneur? According to the authors, five qualities comprise success, and each is represented by one of your fingers. The thumb represents strength, the index finger suggests focus, the middle finger symbolizes a brand, the ring finger implies relationships and the pinky finger stands for the little things that still count. Together they comprise the Midas Touch. If you don’t have it, the authors warn, you won’t make it big in business. Both authors take turns expounding on each principle by harkening back to their own personal experiences. Kiyosaki draws on his service in Vietnam and his failed attempt to build a financial empire out of Velcro wallets. Trump references his many escapades building New York City skyscrapers and hosting a reality-TV show. The authors complement each other surprisingly well, as both men possess rare insights into the way business really gets done. 

I therefore passionately recommend this book for you boost.

You are Great-By-Design!
