1. 10 QUALITIES TO
ACHIEVE GOALS
Extract from Born to Succeed
Colin Turner

2. BUILD CONFIDENCE
 Practice being happy & begin with
smiling
 Visualize that you are a positive person
 Each time say: “I am confident”
 Accept all your negative feelings as a
challenge
 Believe in yourself actively not passively
(Confidence comes from belief)

3. OVERCOME FRUSTRATION
 Begin everything with enthusiasm – Stop
before it becomes frustration – Return to
it with renewed enthusiasm
 Become involved in a new goal
 Concentration on one thought at a time,
one action at a time, one goal at a time

4. COMPASSION & UNDERSTANDING
 Forgive yourself and others. (don’t be
judgmental)
 Be agreeable with others (don’t argue, try to
understand)
 Compliment others. Express, don’t
impress (express builds a bridge, impress builds a
gulf)
 Make others feel important
 Love your neighbors as yourself

5. COMMUNICTION & RAPPORT SKILS
 Seek first to understand before you
make yourself understood
 Your listeners won’t care what you say
until they know that you care
 How you think and feel determines how
you communicate with others
 The way you perceive and see your
world is not through the same lens that
other people will review world

6. DEVELOP A MAJOR ABSORBING
OBSESSION…& … PERSISTENCE
 If you are totally absorbed with what you
really want to achieve the world will
make a path for you
 Only through persistence will you
become what you want – “There is
always a way – my persistence will find
it”
 Winston Churchill’s success motto
“Never give up, never, never give up”

7. WINNING ATTITUDE
 Do not “expect the worst and hope for
the best” – Always affirm “I expect the
best and get it”
 Always look to create a win-win situation
with others – Project yourself as a
winner who creates other winners too
 Project a positive self-image of you
being an enthusiastic person

8. ACCEPT 100% RESPONSIBILITY
 Always remember “you are the person
responsible for how you feel” (it is not the
circumstances or conditions that is the problem)
 Don’t look to blame someone or something for
whatever has happened or happening (blame
looks backward while responsibility looks
forward
 When negative emotion rises up discard it by
saying “I am responsible for the way I feel”

9. GATHER THE COURAGE TO DO
WHAT IT TAKES
 The best way to build courage is to
encourage your self with “You can do it”
 Do not listen to people who discourage
you (courage is doing what you are
afraid to do and there can be no courage
unless you are scared)
 The willingness to do creates the
courage to do – so “Just do it”

10. DEVELOP A HAPPY STATE OF MIND
 Happiness involves having the courage to live
the life you choose for yourself. So choose
what you want, begin it
 Happiness can be increased simply by sharing
it with others
 Practice smiling in front of the mirror every day
for at least 30 seconds
 Get your internal world how you want it and
your external world will be as you want
