Casual Articles - Advice For Success From The Most Successful People On Earth
Do you remember the days when the only way to communicate with someone was either in person or on the phone? It actually does not seem that long ago does it? Where has the time gone? Times have changed and they’ve changed fast. Now you can communicate through email, instant messaging (IM), voice over IP (VOIP), video conferencing, web chat, and the list goes on. All of this really happened in the last three years or so.Every year, there is a new technology that offers us an easier or better way to communicate with friends, family and business associates. This constant change in communication allows us to easily stay in touch with our contacts through the Internet. Now we don’t have to write letters or pay huge long distance bills to call our relatives who live in another county or even in another state; we can simply jump on our computer and start IMing them almost instantly… hence the term Instan

Never Miss An Opportunity
You never get a second chance to make a first impression. Always give 100%
The healthcare industry is experiencing a great amount of job growth. There is a nationwide shortage of nurses, and this shortage is predicted to get worse. Jobs in the field of nursing are abundant worldwide. Unfortunately, not only are there not enough nurses, there are not enough nursing educators. This causes a high degree of competition for those wanting to get in to a nursing program. Potential nursing students are finding it difficult to find programs, and when they do, there are often wait lists. The wait is worth it, however. Since qualified nurses are in high demand - and will continue to be, the wages too, will continue to rise. Registered nurses constitute one of the largest healthcare occupations, with 2.3 million jobs. Even more new jobs are expected to be created for registered nurses than for any other occupation. These job opportunities are expected to be very good.Registered nurses know
I have searched high and low, read books, magazines, websites, listened to podcasts, and watched videos seeking guidance in my goals to be, in the words of Borat, a “Great Success.”
Although the idea of success is different to every person whether it be money, fame, or something as simple as to have a good family life. I have learned that the rules and advice to reach your idea of success are the same everywhere.
Below is a list of the most common advice that I have collected from those who have made it. Note that in order to make the list, the advice, or some variation, had to of shown up more than once and from more than one person.
So here it is, what one should do in order to become successful.
Convince Your Brain That You Are Already Successful (Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill, Problogger.net)
I truly believe that the human mind is far more powerful than anything in the world. This is why navy seals can hold their breath for so long and why people can learn to ignore pain. With the proper training, you can train your mind to do about anything.
Convincing your brain that you have already achieved a goal makes you that much closer to it. I have learned that goals are much more difficult to achieve when they are placed up on a pedestal. Believing that you have attained them already keeps them on your level and makes them easier to achieve.
“In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure.” -Bill Cosby
Learn To Go With Your Gut Instinct (Anyone who has ever founded a startup)
I remember a high school teacher of mine telling me to always go with my first instinct on a test. Well the same rule applies in life and in business. Always do what feels right at the time. Although you probably won’t be right every time, you will be when it really counts.
“When in doubt, don’t.” -Benjamin Franklin
Life Is All About Relationships So Don’t Burn Bridges (Tina Seelig)
“The most important single ingredient in the formula of success is knowing how to get along with people.” -Theodore Roosevelt
You will run into the same people over and over again in life so you need to make good relationships now.
You are not going to like everyone and everyone is not going to like you, no matter how nice of a person you are or how much you donate to charity. Just take a look at Bill Gates. He and his wife probably donate more to charity than anyone, yet he still had a group of people who hate him.
“Don’t be so petty. Sometimes you have to do business with people you don’t like. It doesn’t mean you have to be like them or like them.” -Donald Trump
Learn to treat all people with respect, no matter what.
“When angry count to ten before you speak. If very angry, count to one hundred.” -Thomas Jefferson
Learn Everything You Can On Sales And Marketing
“Anything that won’t sell, I don’t want to invent. Its sale is proof of utility, and utility is success… The value of an idea lies in the using of it.” -Thomas A. Edison
No matter how cool the newest technology is, it is useless unless it provides value to the user.
Would you use the slick looking iPod if it was difficult to use? What if it didn’t even play music? Would you use Google if you got back a “No results found” message everytime?
Create things with value to the user in mind before anything else.
Many Ideas Come Out Of Something That Already Exists
Barbara Carey has used this concept to bring over 100 products to market and acquire more than a dozen patents.
There’s a way to do it better - find it. -Thomas A. Edison
Be Persistent (Napoleon Hill, Barbara Carey)
I never did anything by accident, nor did any of my inventions come by accident; they came by work… Restlessness and discontent are the first necessities of progress. -Thomas A. Edison
Successful people do not get that way accidentally nor do they usually achieve great success on the first try.
All you need is ignorance and confidence and the success is sure. -Mark Twain
Make Mistakes Then Learn From Them
Show me a thoroughly satisfied man and I will show you a failure. -Thomas A. Edison
If the answer is no, find out why. If you get the wrong answer, learn the right one.
Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. -Winston Churchill
Know Your Weaknesses And Surround Yourself With Positive People That Can Do What You Cannot
This is similar to the “self-fulfilling prophecy” and why many people who are told that they will never amount to anything often don’t. If somebody tells you enough times that you are a mongoose, after awhile you will probably start believing them. Surround yourself with encouraging people that believe in you and you will believe in yourself.
If you are passionate about your idea, it is likely that others will be also and they will want to help you. Call on those people when you need them.
Learn To Say No
Saying no to someone is better than saying yes and not being able to give 100%. I used to think that I could and should do everything I had an opportunity to do, but have since learned that it is not possible.
“You can do it all, just not all at the same time.” -Tina Seelig
Try Lots Of Things And Keep What Works
When I have fully decided that a result is worth getting I go ahead of it and make trial after trial until it comes. -Thomas A. Edison

Would you like to get your new or existing Internet business moving nearly at the speed of light? Do you know what is required to get your business noticed and how to build your personal credibility fast, making clients secure enough to purchase from you over the Internet?The Simple AnswerThe primary answer is putting potential clients in a comfort zone relative to your product quality and your reputation as an authority in your marketing niche.One SolutionMarket it on television. There are many ways to do this, such as Infomercials, guest appearances on talk shows like Oprah, short form (1 minute and under) TV commercials, long form (2 minutes up to 30 minute infomercials), and etc. Most online businesses can’t afford the expense of these types of advertising or have products that target a specific niche that just doesn’t fit in the above media methods.The secret is to find

With the country’s immigrant population booming, the need for bilingual jobs continues to increase. But how do you single yourself out from the crowd and effectively market your bilingual skills? An average of 880,000 documented people immigrate to the United States each year, and corporations are struggling to meet the needs of a progressively multi-lingual population. Bilingual personnel are more valuable than ever; the flip side is that a large portion of the new consumers are also bilingual jobseekers. As a bilingual jobseeker you need a way to make your resume stand out.There is no nationwide test to certify your bilingual status. Some states require certification for specific jobs (such as court translation), and some government jobs require a screening test after you are singled out as a promising candidate. Unfortunately, employers are just getting used to screening bilingual applicants and are o
