My Eight Success Secrets

These eight success secrets apply to anything you do in life, not just to doing business offline or online.

First: LOVE is the foundation of everything--love for whatever you do and for others. "To be a genius means to do what you love doing." --Johann Sebastian Bach

Second: Living and dying from moment to moment is the key to happiness: live each day as if it were your last. Your past is unimportant, your future no one knows; you are the master of your destiny.

Third: Be honest and take responsibility for everything you think, say, and do.

Fourth: Focus on your goal, which has to be bold but within reach, and take action. The time for action is today, not tomorrow.

Fifth: Be different. Doing what everybody is doing leads to mediocrity.

Sixth: Never give up: be convinced you will succeed and you will. But keep it simple--simplicity is the mark of a true genius.

Seventh: Never stop learning. Read, get training, develop skills until you're ready to kick the bucket. Look, listen, learn, laugh, love.
