Napoleon Hill's 17 Principles of Personal Achievement

Lesson 1: Definiteness of Purpose
Definiteness of purpose is the starting point of all achievement. Without a purpose and a plan, people drift aimlessly through life.

Lesson 2: Mastermind Alliance
The Mastermind principle consists of an alliance of two or more minds working in perfect harmony for the attainment of a common definite objective. Success does not come without the cooperation of others.

Lesson 3: Applied Faith
Faith is a state of mind through which your aims, desires, plans and purposes may be translated into their physical or financial equivalent.

Lesson 4: Going the Extra Mile
Going the extra mile is the action of rendering more and better service than that for which you are presently paid. When you go the extra mile, the Law of Compensation comes into play.

Lesson 5: Pleasing Personality
Personality is the sum total of one’s mental, spiritual and physical traits and habits that distinguish one from all others. It is the factor that determines whether one is liked or disliked by others.

Lesson 6: Personal Initiative
Personal initiative is the power that inspires the completion of that which one begins. It is the power that starts all action. No person is free until he learns to do his own thinking and gains the courage to act on his own.

Lesson 7: Positive Mental Attitude
Positive mental attitude is the right mental attitude in all circumstances. Success attracts more success while failure attracts more failure.

Lesson 8: Enthusiasm
Enthusiasm is faith in action. It is the intense emotion known as burning desire. It comes from within, although it radiates outwardly in the expression of one’s voice and countenance.

Lesson 9: Self-Discipline
Self-discipline begins with the mastery of thought. If you do not control your thoughts, you cannot control your needs. Self-discipline calls for a balancing of the emotions of your heart with the reasoning faculty of your head.

Lesson 10: Accurate Thinking
The power of thought is the most dangerous or the most beneficial power available to man, depending on how it is used.

Lesson 11: Controlled Attention
Controlled attention leads to mastery in any type of human endeavor, because it enables one to focus the powers of his mind upon the attainment of a definite objective and to keep it so directed at will.

Lesson 12: Teamwork
Teamwork is harmonious cooperation that is willing, voluntary and free. Whenever the spirit of teamwork is the dominating influence in business or industry, success is inevitable. Harmonious cooperation is a priceless asset that you can acquire in proportion to your giving.

Lesson 13: Adversity & Defeat
Individual success usually is in exact proportion of the scope of the defeat the individual has experienced and mastered. Many so-called failures represent only a temporary defeat that may prove to be a blessing in disguise.

Lesson 14: Creative Vision
Creative vision is developed by the free and fearless use of one’s imagination. It is not a miraculous quality with which one is gifted or is not gifted at birth.

Lesson 15: Health
Sound health begins with a sound health consciousness, just as financial success begins with a prosperity consciousness.

Lesson 16: Budgeting Time & Money
Time and money are precious resources, and few people striving for success ever believe they possess either one in excess.

Lesson 17: Habits
Developing and establishing positive habits leads to peace of mind, health and financial security. You are where you are because of your established habits and thoughts and deeds.

WHY I SUCCEED

I’ve missed over 9,000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot…and missed. I’ve failed over and over again in my life. And that’s why I succeed. –Michael Jordan

When stepping into an arena where uncharted territories reside, it's easy to sometimes doubt, or wonder if what we want to undertake is really possible. Watching this clip shows that feeling is all part of the process, it's up to us to realize that and use that emotion to propel us forward. If there were no fear, how would we realize belief? Every fall CAN lead to a rise.. sometimes letting go is what let's you touch the sky.

WORDS OF WISDOM

1. What are you really thinking about today? - “As you think, so shall you become.”

2. Simplify. - “It’s not the daily increase but daily decrease. Hack away at the unessential.” and “If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you’ll never get it done.”

3. Learn about yourself in interactions. - “To know oneself is to study oneself in action with another person.”

4. Do not divide. - “Take no thought of who is right or wrong or who is better than. Be not for or against.”

5. Avoid a dependency on validation from others. - “I’m not in this world to live up to your expectations and you’re not in this world to live up to mine.” and “Showing off is the fool’s idea of glory.”

6. Be proactive. - “To hell with circumstances; I create opportunities.”

7. Be you. - “Always be yourself, express yourself, have faith in yourself, do not go out and look for a successful personality and duplicate it.”

-Bruce Lee

Be> Do> Have Mastermind: Kid Cudi

Hustler Watch: Kid Cudi from Eighty81 on Vimeo.

Scott Mescudi, better known by his stage name KiD CuDi, is a Cleveland rapper who started to gain attention through the release of his first single, "Day 'n' Nite". Cudi released his first mixtape, A KiD Named CuDi, in collaboration with New York streetwear brand 10.Deep Clothing as a free download on July 17. The mixtape features a guest appearance from DC rapper Wale and caught the attention of Kanye West. In early September 2008, he performed at the 2008 VMAs along side Travis Barker and DJ AM. Kid Cudi is featured on Kanye West's latest album, 808s & Heartbreak, singing with him on the track named "Welcome to Heartbreak". Recently signed to G.O.O.D Music, he is finishing up his album for a spring 2009 release. That's a lot to make happen in a 6 month time frame but obviously a product of years of hard work and dedication to the art. In this clip Cudi talks about what happens when you stop 2nd guessing yourself, disregard everyone's opinion and just BE you. www.kidcudi.com

Exhibit A

At about 2:30 on this Jay Electronica track you hear someone speaking about helping millions of people reach their destiny. Below you'll find the man behind the message.





Napoleon Hill (October 26, 1883–November 8, 1970) was an American author who was one of the earliest producers of the modern genre of personal success literature. His most famous work, Think and Grow Rich, is one of the best-selling books of all time. Hill's works examined the power of personal beliefs, and the role they play in personal success. "What the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve" is one of Hill's hallmark expressions. How achievement actually occurs, and a formula for it that puts success in reach for the average person, were the focus of Hill's books.
