12 Daily Practices to Guarantee Tomorrow’s Success
How Does Today Impact Tomorrow’s Success?

Why is that? The root of the problem is that most people misunderstand success. If we have a faulty view of success, we take a faulty approach to our day. As a result, today falls to pieces.
Look at these common misconceptions concerning success and the responses that often go with them:
We Believe Success is Impossible – So We Criticize It
We Believe Success is Mystical – So We Search For It
We Believe Success Comes from Luck – So We Hope For It
We Believe Success is Productivity – So We Work For It
We Believe Success Comes from an Opportunity – So We Wait For It
We Believe Success Comes from Leverage – So We Power Up For It
