- 4. Success. Everybody wantsit, but not everybody gets it. Why? One of the reasons is that most people have the wrong idea of what true success is. As much as we might not want to admit it, most of us consider someone successful if he/she is rich and/or well-known, regardless of how much that person is happy with his/her life and how much he/she contributes to the well-being of the people around him/her. Another reason is that most people don’t know how to handle success. When it comes, it doesn’t stay for long because one tends to mismanage things. OVERVIEW

- 17. Forget about thoseeasy and fast ways to succeed in books sold online or in bookstores. If an author or motivational speaker insists there is a fast but sure-fire way to succeed, it's most likely a scam or involves you buying more of their products. Though success is not a quick and easy process, it can be summarized into a list of do's and don'ts. BUILD YOUR CHARACTER
- 18. Fear has alwaysbeen one of the greatest hindrances to success. Some people mistake this reaction for caution and even common sense. But caution and common sense are processes involved when you choose to pursue a dream and not give up on it. Besides, most revolutionary ideas involve some sort of risk and fear should not be given any headway. To counter fear there should be a healthy and strong dose of faith when in a risky undertaking. NO FEAR, GOD’S HERE.

- 20. FAITH IN THE PLAN Faithin the plan - There should always be a plan. And you should believe in it 100%. Just like every ship needs to have a course to follow, a plan allows the visionary to map out the steps they need to finish to reach their final goal. The plan should be realistic, allow room for mistakes, and most importantly, have an objective. The more thought out and stable the plan is, the more you can be assured of its success.
- 21. FAITH IN YOURSELFTO FOLLOW THROUGH The reason the plan is mapped out by you is that you yourself will eventually follow that plan through completion. There's no need to have a plan but do not believe in yourself enough to do it. Thomas Alva Edison once said, "Success is 10% inspiration and 90% perspiration". So don't just focus on improving the plan - get out there and do it. Believe that you can but prove it by setting about the task on hand. Faith - even faith in yourself - without works is dead, after all.
- 22. FAITH IN GODTO HELP YOU THROUGH EVERYTHING. The God who created you wants the best for you. He is the One Who provides you with strength and motivation for you to be successful. He is the One Who can help you when you sorely need it so He must be the first one you should run to whenever something goes wrong or things don't turn out the way you wanted them to. Take the time to pray before setting out to make the plan, setting out to work, or even before you set your goals and dreams. Remember, he is God and He can provide you with the best guidance on success than anyone else in the whole universe.
- 23. WHO ARE YOU? WHATDEFINES YOU?
- 24. Before we begin,as much as you can, focus on your self, your thoughts, your feelings, and your being. Don’t mind your seatmates. Today is about YOU.
- 25. Take a deepbreath. Empty your anxious minds. Imagine yourself being engulfed by the vast universe.
- 26. In that darkness,imagine a small light. Go to that light. Imagine the person you admire the most. That person you think is beautiful and attractive to you. Imagine their face: their eyes, their nose, their lips, their ears, their chin. Do you like it? Tell yourself, “It’s beautiful, but that’s not who I am.”
- 27. In that darkness,imagine a small light. Go to that light. Imagine yourself looking in the mirror. Visualize every part of your face: your nose, your eyes, your lips, your eyes, your chin, and your ears. Do you like it? Whatever your answers be, tell yourself, “It’s beautiful. It’s who I am.”
- 28. Think of yourhappiest moments. Remember that special moment when you did not think of how you look like. Who made you laugh the way you laughed? Who made you happy? Think about them. May it be your parents, your siblings, your classmates, your friends, your teachers, your special someone.
- 29. One by one. Visionthose important people in your life. Think of how they have hurt you. Remember the pain. Remember the words. Think of how you’ve hurt them or disappointed them. Is that who you are? Is that what you want to be remembered? Is it impossible to be better?
- 30. Slowly let thosememories fade in your minds. Look for another light. Imagine those people whom you are inspired. Ask yourself, “Is this who I am?” Then ask yourself, “Do I want to be like them?”
- 31. As you imaginefloating in the universe, how do you want to see yourself? Who do you want to become?
- 32. Tell yourself. I amnot my mistakes. I am not what they labeled me. I am a unique beautiful person. I can be what I want to become. I am what I will become. I have to love my possibility.
- 33. "If we seemistakes as bad, we tend to feel inadequate and discouraged and may become defensive, evasive, judgmental, or critical—of ourselves or others. On the other hand, when mistakes are seen as opportunities to learn, recognizing them will seem like an exciting venture." CHANGE YOUR PERSPECTIVE
- 34. RECOGNIZE (Oh, I madea big mistake)
- 35. RECONCILE I’m sorry formaking that mistake.,
- 36. RESOLVE (Let's work ona solution together)
- 37. 'Around here, however,we don't look backwards for very long. We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.' - Walt Disney KEEP MOVING FORWARD

Editor's Notes
- #10 It takes a lot of dedication to become successful. While Mark Zuckerberg's friends were out partying, he would stay in his dorm room and work on coding his website until early in the morning. It is very difficult to put in the hours and hours of hard work needed to build a company from the ground up, without truly believing in and enjoying what you are doing.
- #11 Not only has Facebook been the subject of lawsuits with former founders and legal battles over information confidentiality, it has even been banned intermittently in several countries. Through sheer determination and by having incredibly thick skin, Mark Zuckerberg and his team have remained strong in the face of adversity, being mindful of the hazards and hopeful of maneuvering around any challenge that comes their way.
- #12 Not too many people would dare to believe that a project they had started in their college dorm room would end up becoming a worldwide phenomenon. While it is unlikely that Mark Zuckerberg was aiming for one billion users from day one, it is clear that he always had big ideas about his company's success and his overall vision for the future.
- #13 When raising money for Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg took a series of significant risks. He shunned major investors, cancelled meetings, and ignored important phone calls, just to drive up demand. Eventually, he had twelve large investment companies clamoring to fund his site. While most people would have been too scared of missing out on an opportunity, Zuckerberg and the rest of the Facebook team believed in their product enough to wait it out.
- #14 When Facebook began, it was only available to members of the top American colleges: Harvard, Yale, Dartmouth, etc. Students from other colleges all over the country soon wanted to be part of this exclusive club. When major investors first heard about the project, they could not even access the site because registration required a .edu email address. By keeping the site exclusive, Mark Zuckerberg made sure that supply was never larger than demand and that Facebook remained a highly sought-after prize.
- #15 When Mark Zuckerberg first launched his project, it had major competition from more than 20 similar sites, and each was in a far better position than Facebook. MySpace could boast over 5 million users, Friendster had raised $13 million in investment, and Orkut was backed by Google. While many entrepreneurs would have thrown in the towel at the mere thought of such tough competition, the perseverance of Zuckerberg and his team finally paid off.
- #16 Zuckerberg once said that his mission was to "make the world more open". Nowadays, Facebook unites long-lost family members, reports conflicts in areas where free speech is banned, and has been a useful tool in planning uprisings against oppressive governments. Understanding your main aim, whatever it may be, and not getting distracted by unproductive ventures, is the best way to ensure that you reach your goal. Mark Zuckerberg's achievements were not the product of luck. He gained everything he has through a combination of hard work, passion, and the courage to dream big. By not shying away from taking risks and moving forward in the face of major competition, it is possible for any entrepreneur to be just as successful.
- #33 When things go wrong or disaster comes, the winners always manage to stay afloat. Why? Because, in most cases, many of them swim to the surface of their problems while others just lay back and sink. They see the problem as a means to learn and improve. They view mistakes as part of a trial-and-error process that's required to succeed. They view hindrances as mountains to be climbed so you can get to the top. It's how you view your mistakes and trials that will make you either a better or a bitter person.

- #40 Walt Disney had to go through many rejections before he finally had his iconic character Mickey Mouse onscreen. Disney, the company, also had financial problems along the way due to several film flops, but that didn't stop them from continuing to make animated films. Eventually, it was even able to buy out two of their competitors in film and TV - Marvel and Pixar - and is clearly the present leader in the animation industry.
- #41 One must actively think of ways to stand up again and move forward. Deciding to not lose heart but standing up again is one of the greatest turning points in the life of every successful individual. So don't give up. Keep moving forward.
- #45 Some people would willingly give up their integrity just so they can go after their dream. The best harvest is crops grown from your own field, not stolen from a neighbor's farm. To get to the top at any cost is utterly foolish. Just look at the corrupt politicians and business people who went through the "get-rich-quick" route. In the end, they always get caught and the shame and humiliation brought about by their greed and misdeed will forever haunt not only them but also their beloved families, kins and friends.

- #49 You're in trouble when your success story is all about you. The best success stories always involve helping others. Most large companies have foundations or non-profit organization arms that help educate, feed, clothe and house the needy. These successful people include Bill Gates, Will Smith, Steven Speilberg, Angelina Jolie and Avril Lavigne. Put this list to heart and you are on your way to a successful future. But please remember that any kind of success would not matter that much without God being proud and happy for you and your achievements. And the best reward to everything you do is Him finally telling you, "Well done, my good and faithful servant."
