10 Keys to Personal Power
Brian Tracy
Key 1: Clarity
"Have vision. Determine what you want to be, do or have in life. Have a sense of direction and know where you're going. If you do not have clear specific goals in life, you are doomed forever to work for others who do."
What I think that this quote is trying to say is basically that if you do not have a goal you are a failure. I think that this is a quote that is not true, you do not need to have a goal to have a successful life because not everyone chose there success it just came to them because of what the did without even realizing that great success would come out of doing that. It also means to open your eyes to see what can happen.
Key 2: Competence
"If you commit to excellence, opportunities will always come your way. The harder you work, the better you get."
What I think this quote is trying to say is that if you commit to something you want to become then you will become that if you try hard and not try to get a short cut. And the more you work to get to where you want the easier it will get or you to ever come what is in you way. If you are always doing the same thing for a long time you will get better than you were before.
Key 3: Concentration
" Make the best use of your time. Ask yourself "Is this the best use of my time?" before you start anything."
What I think what this quote is trying to say is that if you think that doing something you know is a waste if time then you should not be doing it. Because, if you know then you are just wasting your time on something that you know is not right for you. Like there was this one kid that went to school and he was studding for an exam that his parents knew that he would not have to take. Since he was a savage he decided to do it anyway. So when the day came for the other students to take the exam the teacher said "NO" you not taking it and he said to his teacher "But I studied all night", and she said "You should have asked me if you were taking it". Ad he flipped his teacher off. But that's why he knew he was not suppose to study when his parents had already told him.
Key 4: Common Sense
- Train your mind
- think things through
- Listen to your intuition
- Learn from setbacks
I think that this is true the fact that this can be used in daily life situations. Common sense comes from people who know what they are saying. Not people who just say what they hear people around them say. People can be negative and or positive about their common sense. But you yourself can choose how to use your common sense.
Key 5: Creativity
"Except the fact tat every human being is a genius. The hallmark of creativity is asking questions. The people who are most creative ask the most questions."
I don't think that asking questions is creativity because if you ask questions to get creativity how is that creativity when you are not the one who got it. Creativity is something that comes from you yourself not from someone around you. You have to know when it is yours and when it is someones else. Their is always one side of you that always has creativity you just have to be the one who finds it and lets it out.
Key 6: Consideration
"The quality of your relationship with other people will determine your success in life."
"Develop the people skills you need to become a better communicator. Take courses listening, speaking, etc."
"If you were to learn one new word a day, within 5 years, you'll be the best educated person in history."
I do not thin that the quality of relationships with other people will lead you to success because that will only make you think that why are you not better than them and they will always be higher than you in life because you depend on them even they do not depend on you. So you should always listen to what you have to say and not others tell you what to do. You do not always need to depend on what you say or other people think about you because that is not how life is in the real world. you need to take in action on what you think and what you want to do. I think that if you do learn 1 word a day it will not make you the most educated person on earth because you will only learn 1,825 and there are people out there that can learn that many words in less than a month. But in order to achieve that you would need to be determined to do that. There are no exceptions when you are determined in life on what you want to accomplish. But when other people come with consideration you should always do what you can to listen and if you don't like what they say then you have to do what you want and stay away from that person or tell them not to talk to you about that.
Key 7: Consistency
"Dependable, steady predictable work is always superior to fast spurts of work."
"Be consistent in your relationships, your family, friends, your boss, your work. Be the person that people can depend upon. That if you say you'll do something you do it."
I think that you should be superior to you work because if you are not then you will not get anything done for yourself. I will not be consistent with my boss because he does not respect me and I respect him all the time I think that he is dumb and he should be the one who gets fired. I would not like him to be my boss anymore. I will not tolerate this anymore he is not a reliable person. People are not consistent when it comes to do there work for them selves they like it only when other people do it for them.
Key 8: Commitment
"No success is possible without commitment. The ability to commit yourself whole hearty is the basis of achieving all success."
Become totally absorbed in your work. Be totally committed."
I think that this is true but you need to do it a certain way in order to make someone read what you have wrote and learned this day because this is the only way you will not succeed in life. Do Choose the Right and you will succeed in life the way you will have to. You can always go to a shop and not buy a pack of cigarettes and you will be choosing the right. You can always choose the wrong whenever you wan't and nothing will happen to you but you have to not choose the wright. Never choose the wrong and you will not succeed in life without what you need and you will not succeed in life. I don't know what I am talking about but hopefully it all makes scene at the end of this sentences. Ronald Trump is going to be the worst president in the whole world because he is pathetic. How the fuck is he going to try to click out all Mexicans and deport them if we are the ones who do everything better than white people. He will only ruin america he is the worst person in the world. Although I am not committed to stopping Ronald Trump I will still try to encourage other people to kill his ass and end him. Because lots of people have family's who are no from here but that doesn't stop them from working it give them a reason to keep working and hope for the best.
Key 9: Courage
"The fear of failure is the single greatest reason fro failure in life."
Failure is fro people who are willing to get back up and try it again. Whatever they fail they learn from what they do wrong. Like trump he should just die because he is a dumb mother fucker and he raped a women and got away with it and didn't do taxes for over 25 years, like whats up with that. Like Mr. Haymore he voted for trump and he was the one who Chose the Wrong when he did that he hates us Mexicans and is willing to do whatever it take to kick us out. He pretends to like us but in reality he hate the shit out of us. I hope that the people who voted for trump realize that they are messed up in the head people are people who shouldn't judged by there color of skin or what they think that they must do like drug trafficking. But they won't get away with it they will die and be in hell for the rest of there lives. Fuck Trump and Trump Supporters. They know they voted for he wrong person.
Key 10: Confidence
"You only get confidence by doing things over and over again."
I don't think that this is true because I can get confidence if I believe in myself. And, other ways you can gain confidence is that if you try your best and you hear it from other people around you. I have enough confidence with myself if I try to achieve what I am going for. When you are the one who depends on yourself then you have to believe inn your self to succeed in life and don't get down because they didn't support you thank them because you will know who your real friends are.
