Become
From Life of Paul J. Meyer
The Winner!!!

2. Paul J. Meyer is more than a leader;
he is an achiever and a winner.
He believes whatever you vividly
imagine, ardently desire, sincerely
believe and enthusiastically act
upon must inevitably come to pass.
And for more than five decades, by
spreading this message he has
inspired millions of people around
the world to become winners in
every facet of their lives.

3. “When people think of themselves as
successful, they succeed. When you
believe in yourself, others tend to
believe in you. When they see your self-confidence
and positive expectancy
about your goals, they believe in you
and begin to accept your ideas.”

4. What does
it Takes to
Become a
Winner???

5. Habit # 1 : Think like winners
Successful people think like winners. They approach life with a confident expectation that
they can solve any problem that arises, turn any situation into a positive advantage and
achieve any goal that is important to their success.

6. “Winners share some
general attitudes that are
basic to success for anyone
and essential for gaining
the winning edge.”

7. Habit # 2 : Think Positively
When we point our attitude toward positive results, the results are positive. Paul says, “When you
concentrate on the positives in your life, you stir up the desire to get moving, to seize the day, to
take action, to conquer every adversity that jeopardizes well-being or prosperity.”

8. “Winners habitually face the work of the day with the purpose of discovering
what can be done instead of worrying about what cannot be done. When winners
encounter roadblocks, they draw instantly on their positive attitude and
determine quickly how to react constructively.”

9. Habit # 3 : Learn From Mistakes
Every Mistakes should teach a lesson to us, doing the same mistake again is very bad like anything!
So don’t take your mistakes as deviation! Take your mistakes as direction! Mistakes are part of life
and the successful people must know how to make the most of them, accept them and learn from
them to progress and still achieve!

10. “Winners never make
excuses; they acknowledge
their mistakes or failures
and learn from them.”

11. Habit # 4 : Pay the Price of Success
Anything is possible as long as you set a goal, have a winner’s attitude, and apply discipline and
a willingness to work. Paul says, “I put down my goal in writing, listed the obstacles and roadblocks
and then it was about finding a way around them. I was over 50 years of age at the time, but that’s
what I was willing to do to learn. It’s what I had to do to be a champion and to be the best.”

12. “Winners do not expect to get
something for nothing. Winners
are willing to give the time,
effort, creativity and money
necessary to achieve their
purposes. They know that any
success worth having carries
a high price tag and they gladly
accept the opportunity to invest
in their own success.”

13. Habit # 5 : Accept Responsibility
Acknowledging that you are solely responsible for the choices in your life. Accepting that you are
responsible for what you choose to feel or think. You choose the direction for your life. You cannot
blame others for the choices you have made.

14. “Winners exercise initiative;
they do what is needed
because they are personally
responsible. Winners carry
out their responsibility to be
and to do their best.”

15. Habit # 6 : Use Creative Abilities
Our creative ability lies in the development of our mind is and how it is focused to direct what we
feel, and whether or not we are willing to follow our intuitive guidance to act. Paul says. “I have a
no-limitations belief in my creator, a no-limitations belief in myself, a no-limitations belief in other
people and a no-limitations belief in what we can do together. Every day is that way for me.”

16. “Winners cultivate their creativity,
trust it and exercise it. Creativity
springs from self-acceptance, self-knowledge,
and the courage to develop
and practice one’s unique talents.”

17. Habit # 7 : Persist and Persevere
Paul set a goal to be successful selling life insurance. If there were obstacles, he would go over
them. If there was a wall, he was going to go through it. He says, “If I heard a no, it didn’t make
any difference to me. I had the same healthy self-image when I called on the first insurance
company that I did on the 57th one, even with 55 rejections in between.”

18. “The phrase give up is not in the vocabulary of winners. When winners choose a goal,
their commitment to achieving it is firm and steadfast. When winners are confronted
with hurdles or run into stumbling blocks, they go over them or turn them into
stepping stones. Winners pursue their goals persistently until they succeed.”

19. Habit # 8 : Still Persisting and Persevering
Although the color of Paul’s hair may give a hint to his age, his daily regimen doesn’t show it. He
still lives every day with the same passion and desire he had as a young man. And he shows no
sign of stopping. To celebrate his 70th birthday, Paul climbed Mt. Elbert, the tallest of Colorado’s
14 highest peaks and the second-tallest mountain in the continental United States.

20. “Quitters never win
and winners never quit”.

21. Habit # 9 : Attitude is Everything
The success in life is not part of some magic formula but about having the right attitude in
life. Paul says, "I have an I will-not-be-denied attitude. And that’s an incredible thing to have.
I don’t look to my weakness; I look to my strength. I don’t look to my problems; I look to my
power. It’s all about attitude."

22. “When you’re down at the
bottom, Attitude is Everything.
So it doesn’t matter where you
are or what you’re doing, it all
has to do with attitude.”

23. The material Paul teaches comes from his true life experiences. Paul has lived it. Now 80, he is still
dreaming, planning, climbing and achieving. He sets records then breaks them. He sees potential
and possibilities the average person doesn’t believe possible or overlooks. You cannot question
whether he knows what he is talking about; you only need look at his life for testimony.

24. “Construct your Determination with
Sustained Effort, Controlled Attention,
and Concentrated Energy. Opportunities
never come to those who wait... they are
captured by those who dare to attack!!!”
Thank You Very Much
