Preface
This book is written for students, to teach them that there is no big
secret about achieving success in their career and life. Lessons and
other tools for success are simple to learn but it requires hard work
and discipline to practice them.
Successful people want a good future for themselves and for their
children. This is the first step towards success. You need to want it.
They know as humans, they have the power to change their future.
They are willing to pay a price to get what they want, and they know
we all have limitless brainpower ready to be used.
They set higher goals and work hard to achieve them, learn how to
get things done and manage their time. They do not quit. They trust
themselves to get things done and don’t just hope for the best.
They develop a habit of reading, and realize that getting an education
is the single most important thing they can do to improve their lives
and their children’s lives. Finally, they know what employers expect
from an employee, and they practice it while in school.
“We are what we repeatedly do.
Excellence then, is not an act, but a habit.”
Aristotle
