Interesting Article About Success

"Success, however you define it, is not an accident. It is not a
result of good luck versus bad luck. Even if you have not taken
the time to clearly identify how you got from where you were to
where you are today, there have been a series of specific steps
that you have taken that have brought you to where you are at
this minute. And the fact is, they could have brought you to no
other place. You are where you are, and what you are because of
yourself. It has been your choices and your decisions over the
months and years that have inevitably determined the condition
of your life at this moment.

"The most wonderful part of this is that at any time you can
start making different choices and different decisions, taking
different steps and you will inevitably arrive at a different
place than where you are today.

"The greatest thinkers of all time, going back to the earliest
recorded writings of the earliest religions, the earliest
philosophers and metaphysical schools have all emphasized the
power of the human mind to shape individual destinies.

"The key to your enjoying more of what people call luck is for
you to engage in more of the actions that are more likely to
bring about the consequences that you desire. At the same time,
you must conscientiously decide to avoid those actions that
will not bring about the consequences that you desire, or even
worse, will bring about consequences that you don't want.

"The laws of cause and effect, action and reaction, sowing and
reaping, are timeless truths, universal principles that have
existed since the beginning of man on this earth. All success,
happiness and high achievement comes from organizing your life
in conformance with these timeless principles. When you do, you
will achieve satisfaction and enjoyment at levels seldom
experienced by the average person and of course, people will
start to refer to you as lucky
