Your Beliefs Determine Your Success
Your primary aim in life is the
achievement of your own happiness and happiness is
something that exists naturally in the absence of
fears, doubts and negative emotions. Perhaps the
greatest negative emotion is FEAR . The single fear,
the one that causes you more distress and
unhappiness than anything else, is the fear of
failure. ------------ Brian Tracy
Eliminate the negative emotions and what's left is
happiness. Eliminate the FEAR.

The Law of Clarity
By: Brian Tracy
Clarity accounts for probably 80% of success and
happiness. Lack of clarity is probably more
responsible for frustration and underachievement
than
any other single factor. That's why we say
that "Success is goals, and all else is commentary."
People with clear, written goals, accomplish far more
in a shorter period of time than people without them
could ever imagine. This is true everywhere and under
all circumstances.

Be a Great Parent- Coach
Have you considered pre-framing your child about
going to karate class? Pre-framing means setting the
stage in your child's mind about what's going to
happen and what's expected. Pre-framing is
developing a pattern for success as a prerequisite to
achieving it. You may not realize it, but you have been
pre-framing your children since before they were born.
Mothers who take prenatal vitamins, get regular check-
ups, and do not smoke or drink during pregnancy do
so because they want their child to be healthy. You are
pre-framing your child for a healthy life.
