You can’t excel in everything but you can be exceptional in a few things, so why not choose your life’s focus?

You will only ever achieve the level of success that matches your wisdom or personal development level.

Invest time, energy, and money into increasing your knowledge and wisdom so you can become the best you can be – it’s the best investment you could make.

Your wisdom decides your value, the size of the problems you can solve, the opportunities you create, and ultimately the level of success you experience.

To be successful choose an area of focus in life. It will identify where your energy should be invested and (more importantly) the source of your joy and success.

Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that your dreams, desires or goals are more important than fear.

Acting courageously is about knowing and making the right choices based on a deep conviction that dwarfs fear, doubt, and worry.

Courage is the ability to make yourself take action in spite of your fear.

Successful people’s dreams aren’t just about results. They’re about the changes their dreams will bring to their lives and the impact achieving their goal will have on those around them.

Dare to be different.

Achievers are biased towards action despite any fear, and this courage sets them apart from others.

You need courage because at various moments in your life you might need to attempt something new, push yourself outside your comfort zone, challenge the status quo, change your story, or overcome your fear.

Discipline is more about self-control through your inner strength and less about restriction.

The ability to make yourself do what needs to be done at the appropriate time and in the appropriate manner – irrespective of your feelings – marks the true test of self-discipline.

Self-discipline is a learned habit that should be developed and continuously worked on through regular application, practice, and repetition.

Discipline begins where you are, and the key to sustaining the level of discipline you need lies in developing daily habits and routines which mirror the life you want to have.

The investment you make in others is transferred to everyone they influence long after you’re gone. Significance

Significance is about making a difference, and its pursuit should ideally come before the pursuit of success – or at least at the same time.

It’s not how long you live that matters, it’s how well you live.

Have you decided how great you want to be? It’s really up to you. Greatness is a choice.

Success may create excitement, but only significance leads to fulfilment.

Success lasts a lifetime but stops at the end of your life. Significance lasts many lifetimes and continues long after you’re gone.

If you see success as a race, then you will start eagerly with enthusiasm and passion with the hope of finishing quickly but there is much more to your success journey than your duration and speed.

Greatness is achieved when you fulfil your purpose by doing what you were born to do.

Always direct your emotions, desires, behaviour, and actions in the present so they are in alignment with what you want in your future.

Self-discipline is a prerequisite to progress.

Your ego does not need to be crushed, it needs to be redeemed.

Perfection is the lowest standard out there because it is unattainable. Be the best you can but don’t try to be someone you were not born to be.

Your words reveal your wants but your actions reveal your expectations.

You have mastered the art of discipline when you are able to act according to what you ultimately desire rather than how you feel in the present moment.

To get to ‘yes’ from ‘no’, you may have to journey through ‘maybe’.

Ninety-five per cent of your success or failure will come from your daily habits.

Staying true to your dream by using your mental, emotional and physical strength is discipline in action. You express it through focus, grit, self-control, persistence, perseverance, and willpower.

The most important relationship in your life should be your relationship with yourself.

You are on your way to building a significant life when your service to others stops focusing on the now and the immediate future and instead focuses on generations to come and how your actions today will impact them long after you are gone.

To find true fulfilment, you must live your life’s purpose.

There isn’t a single definition of happiness to suit everyone’s requirements, but you know it when you feel it

Success and the pursuit of it can nourish your body, but only significance has the ability to nourish your mind, body and spirit.

Don’t try, be happy.

You already have the abundance of life in you, and each day you must decide to live abundantly by choosing not to live in the past, by never taking counsel of your fear, and most importantly by seeing the greatness within you and embracing it.

The abundant life should include all that life has freely given you – love, good health, success, prosperity, happiness, joy, spirituality, fulfilment, wisdom, purpose, growth and excitement.

To succeed in life you need five things – a burning desire, a willingness to do whatever it takes, wisdom, incredible effort, and a commitment to never ending improvement.
