CHAPTER 9
Think Right About Others
In chapter 9 this will be notified about the progress of
someone who will not progress without the people around him and the importance
of the people around us. Because if you want to progress,
you must definitely be able to be someone who is open to the opinions of others
because by being open with opinions you can also open your view in developing
your business and efficiency in working on your existing tasks. J ika
we want to be known in a group of successful people surely you must strive to
introduce yourself to important people because it is not a problem I know them
but they know me so that when a task or opportunity you can remember enumerated
by him and pick up on that occasion because this opportunity will make you grow
and always innovate in creating something.
CHAPTER 10
Get Actions
In chapter 10 you will be told about the attitude that is
needed in every successful person, namely the ability to complete tasks and
produce valuable fruit, some people can solve it but have not been able to
produce fruit as a gift from him to finish. The
fruit can be in the form of ideas or ideas that are creatively thought to
achieve new and better things. People often have ideas to take
action but always appear risks that are encountered, because they are afraid of
the risks that will be encountered later most do not take these risks and
prefer on the same road does not increase or not decrease to not develop.
Every successful person always has the risk to be at stake
but if we only think of the risks that exist and wait for the risk to disappear
by itself then we will not start it, so to be successful we must be brave to
take risks every risk of having a way out with thought positive and
self-confident if you can do it.
CHAPTER 11
How to Change Defeat to Victory
In chapter eleven, you will be informed of the weaknesses of
some attitudes in dealing with problems and how to find a way out. Someone must
be strong in dealing with existing problems and consider it as an exercise for
him to overcome problems later, then there are types of people facing the
problem will only be silent and allow the problem to master it. The
last type of person is the one who leads to failure because they don't want to
face new problems again and never forget the problem, while the first type of
person is someone who needs to be emulated because he wants to change and
forget the problem so that it can develop properly. With
an attitude of willingness to change and always think positively will
definitely find a way out in every problem that exists and make mistakes as
learning in the future.
CHAPTER 12
Use Your Goals to Grow
This chapter will be told about how to develop your goals as
a guide to success because your brain will govern by itself to give ideas and
innovations in overcoming problems and always write your ideas on a paper
because the idea might be useful for you one day . Purpose is the goal or goal
of one day every person will not be able to advance if it does not have a
purpose in life, before the goal is set, the person will only do what he
usually does will not develop at all because they do not have a goal.
If you have a clear goal, you can do things that support that
goal to happen and can be realized. To
realize your goals, you can do the following things: avoid delaying, watching
TV, gossiping because this will not improve your attitude, just make you more
lazy, then check your appearance, plan work, praise people if there is a chance.
Set your principles clearly, Develop your attitude by
reducing laziness and changing lazy times by reading books that you are pro in
that field.
CHAPTER 13
How to Think Like a Leader
In chapter 13 will be notified of how to think like a leader,
the leader is always trying to work on the group he leads to advance and can
improve to the better, therefore it takes a leader who can find a way out
unyielding from anything and always sure to think positively to find the right
path for the group to pass. The method can be by sharing
ideas or thoughts with the people you want to influence because knowing their
views you can persuade them to do it smoothly and well, then in dealing with
problems that can be done asking themselves "What is a human way to overcome
this problem ? "Because if you want yourself and others to help you make
sure the method used is the way each person wants to be treated because it will
be more easily accepted if done humanely, after that think ahead and believe in
the progress of thinking of the opportunities and ideas that you have and write
on paper and always believe you are the one who is advancing everything, Try
being alone because being alone can make you think of creative things that have
never been thought of before.
Review (Chapters 9-13)
Someone will not be going ahead
without the people around him and the importance of the people around us.
Because people around us are supporters of our progress.
If we want to succeed, try to be friends with people who have
succeeded. From other people's experiences we can imitate or even get
better. Never be afraid to feel like a failure, because failure is
definitely done by everyone. If we fail, try to get up again
and go again. Don't even give up on all of
that. Make our dreams and hopes a driving force for success.
Be always the person who focuses on goals and expectations,
because the results we achieve will be optimal if we focus.
Thinking like a leader is a way
of thinking that is not only thinking about oneself, but must think about the
group. Thinking that a leader must be creative, because a leader
will move his members to move. If a leader is not creative and
agile, it is very difficult to develop the potential of its members.
Finally, no matter how difficult our situation is, we always
remember that this situation has benefits for the future. Always
looking for a way out wisely if in a state of deterioration, think many times
if we decide something in our unfavorable condition (physical and spiritual).
Success is not only in the hands of smart people, smart and
so forth. But that success is in people who work hard. Don't
feel we will never be successful, but it's not time for us to succeed.
One time a person who works hard, that person will get the
results of his hard work (good results). Don't
be afraid to step.
Chapter fourteen is the last chapter in this book.
Below
is a review of one to thirteen chapters.
Someone is said to be successful if he is able to think about
himself. If he thinks positively and is optimistic about being able to
succeed, success will be achieved. But
if he thinks that he will not succeed, then success will stay away from him.
Optimistic thinking will make a person more confident in what
he does. While the pessimistic mind will make a person who is afraid.
Let alone to do something, just think of the idea, the person
will feel that whatever he does will not work.
Someone who is always pessimistic, he will always look for
reasons why he always fails. Various reasons are used, such
as age, health, knowledge and opportunity. For
example, for reasons of age, for example, someone took part in a race but lost.
So the person would have reasoned that he was too old to
compete. Health reasons, for example, someone will always say that
their health is not good when they fail. People
like this will forever be consumed by reason and forever he will not be able to
do anything.
Meanwhile successful people are people who always do.
They are always looking for ways to live better.
Then the people will realize it with action. For
optimists, doing now will be better than losing their chance altogether.
Successful people will always think positively about other
people. For them, they will not succeed without others.
That's the reason why positive thoughts bring success.
This
book will help readers manage our positive thoughts. The
author managed to provide examples of ways of thinking and having a big soul
like those who have been successful.
