ANDREW CARNEGIE - RULES TO SUCCESS – ORGANIZED BY NAPOLEON HILL

There are certain natural laws which when applied, success will be definite. Andrew Carnegie, a rich American steel maker, described these rules of success to Napoleon hill which he had utilised in his life achievement. Any person who likes to rise above average living can follow these laws in order to conquer his destinies. These laws are universal and applicable to anyone who likes to earn $100 or $billion through his capabilities. These are simple laws which are easy to comprehend and they bring endless joy and successes in our life, when we apply. There are 17 qualities for success and those are described below, which will help us to travel towards any destination:

Definiteness of purpose: It is process of designing or identifying an ultimate and pointed goal in our life. The purpose or goal is intentionally accumulated in our mind by continuous thinking process. It is an important step in self-development process, because, every rule described below are based on this principle.

The master mind: It involves grouping in harmony with like-minded, talented friends and colleagues in focus with our objectives. It is through this method, talents and character spread across men are utilised for our objectives through heart-based relationship.

Attractive personality: It involves development of good character and personality which is imperative for our accomplishments. Good character includes courtesy, empathy, communication, mental attitude, sincerity, decision making, sense of humour, etc.

Applied faith: It is a habit of having complete belief in our capability and in our objectives. It is otherwise known as self-confidence which helps us to rise after every failures (or delayed success).

Going the extra mile: It helps us to attain position and recognition within men. It is a natural law involving a habit of doing more than needed. For instance, as students, it is sufficient to attain pass marks in subjects, but, when we try to achieve centum, we are gain applause and fame – this is called “Going the extra mile”.

Organized individual endeavour: It is through this rule, we know, “How an individual can make purposeful and profitable use of his right and responsibility for the exercise of personal initiative, in focus with his objective.”

Creative vision: It includes usage of creativity skill (inherent in every human) towards our definite objective. It describes techniques like active and passive creativity. Active creativity means conceiving new creations and passive creativity means combination of active creations, leading to new creations.

Self-discipline: It involves manoeuvring our positive and negative emotions in accordance with our objectives. It is a habit involving perfect control over our stimulus and response.

Organized thinking: While previously described, “Organized individual endeavour” is applicable for actions, this law applies to our thinking process. It appraises ways for making our thoughts to stay on our objectives by repetitive thinking.

Learning from defeat: In reality, a defeat is just an identifier that teaches us: “our path towards our objective is deviating or wrong and needs correction.” Failures are a sign which guides us to redesign our way towards success.

Inspiration: It is also called controlled enthusiasm. We should be enthusiastic and desire to achieve our objective. It warns us with, “over-enthusiasm is as dangerous as no enthusiasm.”

Controlled attention: It is the act of combining all the faculties of the mind and concentrating them upon the attainment of a definite purpose.

The golden rule applied: It describes a habit of doing something to others before we expect things from them. It is an investment made for everlasting relationships.

Co-operation: We should deal with ourselves through our head, while others should be dealt with our heart – a basic rule for enchanting relationships.

Budgeting of time and money: It involves proper utilisation of money and time, by avoiding unnecessary dissipation of this powerful energy. With 24 hours of time in hand, we can distribute: 8 hours for sleep, 8 hours for work and 8 hours for leisure or self-improvement – a best time table to succeed.

The habit of health: Health tips like consumption of proper level of food, exercise, sleep etc. acquaintances are important. It states that we should comply with complete avoidance of medical drugs, since, the food we consume acts as a drug for health problems. If a headache occurs, we try to stop it with drugs, but, the root cause of headache may be improper digestion. So, without removing cause (indigestion), we can’t remove effect (headache). There is more possibility of headaches to continue, when indigestion is not taken upon.

Cosmic habit-force: Similar to Newton’s gravitational force (how objects are attracted towards earth centre); cosmic habit force is the natural process by which habits are formed and planted in our life. Deep and continuous thinking with avoidance of unnecessary thoughts will make needed habits to get rooted in our character.

INSPIRATIONS TO KILL DESPERATION

Authority is not conquering people through their weakness but by conquering people through their heart.

We are acclaimed or praised not for what we are capable of, but what we are doing.

Genius is the one who do complex things in a simpler way. They bear “normal physical features” yet they posses “abnormal mental features” developed through persistence, confidence, and temperance.

It is much easier to get things done from others through love than through compulsion or fear.

My personal experience: “A food served from my mother’s tender hands taste best than served from my hands.”
It is a universal truth that there is no 100% perfection in every natural existence. For instance, consider movement of earth or moon, they drift in their position slightly with years, showing non-conformance towards perfection. Even rising of sun, a small deviation in seconds or milliseconds occurs every day. But, it still remains an astonishing fact that the purity, perfection and devotion with which a mother delivers her love towards her children remains 100% perfect in time. For millions of years in past and millions for years to follow in future, this fact remains same, unbounded with time.

Possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, impossible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible, possible.
- A number of possible destroys an impossible staying between lines. So, are rules in life.

SOLUTION FOR LIFE TROUBLES – RELATIONSHIP

Few years from today, every people in the world believed that the problems and troubles prevailing in the society can only alleviated through money or material riches. They believed, “Because, money gives position, joy, peace, respect, etc. Earning money should be the ultimate objective of life.” Superiority in life was decided on the basis of the amount men accumulated. Society was discriminated on the basis on money. People even gave vent to fraudulent means for earning material incomes. “Getting something out of nothing” started to propagate in the society.

God got vexed about the attitude by which humans have got civilized. To edify and stir up human’s intellect, the infinite intelligence (god) incarnated on earth and planned to gift each family with a magical chest. The god exclaimed, “Oh humans! This magical box has the peculiar property to double material riches every month. But, with one condition, you can draw and invest only once to solve your life troubles.”

People got pleased in experiencing God’s resourceful blessings. With leaving sufficient resources needed for living, they invested rest of the resources in the magical chest.

Number of months crossed without single withdrawal from deposit. Because, the families had the motive of increased riches and they allowed incrimination of the account indefinitely for higher outcomes.

In the period of probation of the magical box, they tried to solve day to day problems without monetary factors. They contemplated “relationship and unity factor” as a solving guide to life-problems in the place of money. With new realisation, people experienced much peaceful life than what they had with money. Society reformed with harmony getting established and became renewed as an intellectual relationship centre.

With relationship as primary importance, material riches became secondary.

WORDS TO INSPIRE THINKING

What matters most is how we value ourselves than how others value us.

In marketing terminologies, we have profit factor and loss factor. But, in our life terminologies, we have only profit factor. What appear with short sight as losses are actually with long vision are profits.

Many mineral resources are laden in running river water than in stagnated pond. Similarly, human living stagnated due to past failures or future planning are devoid of life resources than the human who runs in perfect unison with time.

A clean cloth is used to wipe away dirt deposited in spectacles helping in better clarity of vision. Similarly, education cleans our intellectual spectacles to have clear vision over internal life and external society.

Many people know how to earn money but they don’t know how to save money. Saved riches are earned riches. It requires intelligence and talents to earn riches but it requires character to save riches.

QUOTES: “You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You must do the thing that you think you cannot do.” - Eleanor Roosevelt

POSITIVE VISUALISATIONS

It was first time; I am meeting him in a kiosk (snack stall) near my college. He was arguing with the shopkeeper for extra cigarettes. The shopkeeper with health consciousness riposted, “I already gave you 2 cigarettes, additional cigarette will definitely injure your lungs and your life will be in stake. I won’t provide you anymore.”

This incident left a black impression about him in my mind, I thought, “How ill his activities are! He is destroying his beautiful life from ugly enjoyment habits.” Whenever I encountered him in the hostel or college, the incident stagnated in my memory flashed in my mind. As days passed, I started to visualise him as one of the worst personality, I have ever come across.

One day, he and I were waiting to make a call in hostel common phone booth. It was an urgent call, I needed to contact with my parents. Because, he came first, he was waiting to get his chance. As I had a negative picture about him, I didn’t express my urgent requirement.
But, he was empathetic to understand my need and allowed me to utilise his chance. Now, unconsciously, the negative picture which was engraved in my mind suddenly got dissolved and he became a friendly, kind, humane personality. After making call, I was waiting to acknowledge his sympathetic action. From the conversation he had in telephone, I came to understand that the person, he needed to converse had just left one minute before.

After, 15 minutes waiting to make a call and his failed opportunity. I tried to express my regrets over his failed chance. I said, “Because, of my call you lost your call, I am extremely sorry for what happened.” Without disgusted about failure, he just made long, friendly smile and he said, “Oh my friend, I may missed an opportunity in just making a call but I didn’t missed an opportunity to help a good friend like you!”

His answers stroke my emotion with a feeling which I haven’t experienced before: “Even without interaction, he has positive impression about me. But, I have accumulated a negative impression about him by just looking his action without observing his intensions. His habits may be wrong, but not his relationships.”

QUOTE: "Confidence is a habit that can be developed by acting as if you already had the confidence you desire to have. " - Brian Tracy

JOKES AND INSPIRATIONAL QUOTES

Joke 1:
An opposition party news channel was telecasting a programme regarding recent climate changes. One of the highly enthusiastic party supporter yelled, “Such climatic changes, we didn’t face, when we our party was ruling!”

Joke 2:
A teacher explained, “Team work, an intelligent habit which wise men encourage, foolish men discourage.” A student rose and spoke, “That’s the reason, why invigilators in exam-hall disturb teamwork while students propagate teamwork.”

Short but strong sentences:
Power of buildings are rooted in their foundations, power of humans are rooted in their thought directions.

Number of sleepless, enthusiastic, hardworking nights before success, will destroy number of sleepless, deprived, frustrated nights after failures.

Simple men – use and think of time, super men – think and use time.

People become miniature creatures, when they are viewed from high buildings, but maximise equal in size, when they are viewed from same level. Similarly, problems in life become simple and minute when we observe them from higher level of thinking.

Cowardice becomes a positive nature, when we fear of actions that inflict pains on others.

Courage becomes negativity, when we don’t fear to earn material gains through selfish intensions.

QUOTE: “Our strength grows out of our weakness.” - Ralph Waldo Emerson

CASTE DISCRIMINATION – BREEDER OF DEVIL’S MIND

A child during vacation holidays went to his grandparent’s house. With just two members, there were large numbers of metal plates in the gigantic house. Yet, the household servants had separate plastic plates for their consumption. Unknowing the difference in plate usage, the child asked his grandfather, “Papa, why our servants use different plates? Can they use the same metal plates as we utilise.” The grandfather replied in vanity, “Son, it is because they are lower in status compared to us, so, they use cheaper plates.”

Next day, the child deliberately in the absence of the grandparents tasted meals and without finding any difference went to his grandfather and exclaimed, “Oh papa, I couldn’t experience any difference in taste of food which status has created.”

In earth, we can find only two different types of men:
One, who treats everyone with equal vision – breeder of God’s mind,
Two, who observes disparities between men – breeder of devil’s mind.

After few years of world formation, three sources of water river-water, sea-water and well-water started to quarrel, in order to establish their superiority. The god incarnated on earth, to defuse the tension prevailing between the sources to save lives on earth. The God’s solution left a powerful impact which made the water sources to live in equanimity till date. The god’s reply was: “To know the most superior of the three, raise your intelligence to know your life-cycle, you will identify equality in existence.”
The god’s answer enlightens a deep intellectual inference which apprises us as follows: “In earth, water may be placed in sea, river, well or even in ditch. But, as they evaporate into water vapour, they become equal in the nature without their reference to the place of presence on earth. Similarly, we humans may differ in caste, creed, status, colour, etc. on earth, but, as we die and reach higher intelligence we become devoid of earthly habitat, become equal without difference. This is the rule of life.”

QUOTE: “It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.” -Andre Gide

TITBITS OF THOUGHTS IV

Greater our position in life, greater carefulness or consciousness are needed in the relationship with others.

A food shows its taste until it stays in tongue; similarly, the failure attitude deprives us until it stays in our thoughts.

Everything has its own importance:
Chapels have its importance, when we walk through severe, hot barren lands,
Umbrella may lay useless for number of days, but strikes us with importance during rainy days.
- So, are people and our relationship with them.

For a man stricken with long thirst, what matters is quantity not quality of drinking water.

Those who do after failures are those who won’t fail after successive successes.

QUOTE: “Between stimulus and response, we have every liberty to decide.” – Stephen covey

TITBITS OF THOUGHTS III

We can’t succeed others because we don’t know other’s strength, but we can succeed ourselves because we know our strength.

What may appear small to a rich, may appear big to a poor. So, even small expressions of actions towards indignant souls may magnify into large emotional satisfactions in poor’s mind.

What is more valuable is not how much we give to others but with what attitude we give to others.

If we value ourselves low, we are underestimating. If we value others high, we are overestimating.

Many aspire to succeed but some finite men inspire to succeed.

The greatest miracles in life are not accomplishment of great successes but creating great successes after great failures.

My college has number of motivational quoted wall-boards in which one states: “Character is more praised than talents, because most talents are inborn, while character is development by persistence, diligence, determination, hard work etc.”

QUOTE: "The best motivation is self-motivation. The guy says, “I wish someone would come by and turn me on.” What if they don’t show up? You’ve got to have a better plan for your life." - Jim Rohn

TENDER HEART’S GIFT

This was first time, a seven-year old child troubling her mother. She said arrogantly, “I won’t eat anything. I won’t do any of my homework. I won’t do anything, whatever you insist!” There was a strong confrontation between her and her mother.

The father returned after his work. The mother screamed, “Your beloved daughter has become so naughty, how difficult it is for me to deal with her. First, try to manage her!” The child being father’s pet, moved towards him and said, “Father, I will do whatever you command, provided you give me fifty rupees!”

Never before his child had behaved like this. Her intense action for sake of money was difficult to comprehend for this empathetic father. He thought, “My child might desire money for just enjoying ice-creams or chocolates. We can guide her, if she is diverted in wrong track!” So, Next day, the father followed the child without showing his identify, when she was moving towards the school. As the father thought, she moved towards the ice-cream parlour, but she didn’t go inside, but she approached a blind child begging for money near the parlour and placed fifty rupees on its plate. After expressing her noble action, she moved towards the school gracefully. The father who followed to teach, but was taught, by his child’s action. The father stood with pride on observing his child’s attitude and felt as if, an angel had born as daughter.

The child’s actions might be questionable but not her intensions. Great are men who live for others and die for others.

QUOTE: It was a high counsel that I once heard given to a young person, "Always do what you are afraid to do.” - Ralph Waldo Emerson

CREATIVE AND INTELLECTUAL INTERVIEW STRATEGIES

Before you follow reading, I warn the strategies discussed below will work only “if you value character and virtues more than material gains.” These are simple expressions yet they yield powerful outcomes. The content is mainly used to stimulate the emotional personality of the interviewer. We make normal expressions with extra-ordinary fashion.

TELL ME ABOUT YOURSELF!

With such sort of questions from the interviewer, we can initiate our introduction with powerful quotes like:
“Where head is devoid of fear, head stands straight” – Rabindranath Tagore,
“Courage is not absence of fears but ability to face fears”,
“Success is not winning others, its winning ourselves.”

When we express about our character, we can start with quotes like:
“Talents help me to succeed but character helps me to be successful!”
- Introducing powerful sentences in answers will illuminate right perception about us in the interviewer’s mind.


WHY WE SELECT YOU?

Answer: Never had a time for scarcity of professionals, but there is always a scarcity for talented professionals. With the multitudinous professionals, I am a finite talented professional capable of providing creative solutions for my prospective company.


WHAT IS YOUR LONG TERM GOAL?

Answer: To develop world-class talents in my field of endeavour and as a human I think to work for the fortification of the society. This desire was seeded, when I encountered a poor-beggar family near bus-stand making living all the day for begging. Their pathetic situation disturbed my intellect and I felt the money I earn should help such indignant people.


WHERE ARE YOU WEAK?
Answer: Procrastination or failure to accomplish pre-planned task was the weakness, I was afflicted till last month. But, I rectified it through my creativity skill as follows: I created an earning plan through which, whenever I accomplish my planned task, I earn 2 Rs as a financial gain. The money I gained will be expressed unrestrained fashion – For example, if I think of enjoying ice-cream, instantaneously, I can acquire it through the accumulated earning without reasoning.


HOME WORKS to be done before interview:

If you have tried number of interviews before but failed, try to use it as an advantage and showcase the reason for preceding interview failures and express the methods you adopted to rectify the problems. This exposes our character of “learning from failures.”


FINAL EXPRESSION:

Before leaving the interview session to identify the outcome of the interview and to produce good humble mannerism, we could initiate a conversation as follows:
“I know I am leaving something back off me. But, I don’t know what I am leaving back! Whether, it is a positive impression or a negative impression!”

not dare that they are difficult." - Seneca

TITBITS OF THOUGHTS - II

1. If we succeeded in our first attempt, we are un-fortunate. But, fortunate are those who fail in their first attempts. Because, failing helps them to identify where they lag and propel them towards success in their next consecutive attempts without failures.

2. By associating with others, we relate ourselves with others. By alienating from others, we relate ourselves with our original conscience. (Alienation means meditation)

3. People can be broadly distinguished on their basis of their response “Yes or No” to the stimulus instigated by life.

4. Interdependence without independence is dependence.

5. Every seed is seeded with innate, intrinsic power by nature which helps it rise against gravity force pushing it down – so are humans pushed down by failures.

6. Never has one rose directly from bottom-most step to top-most step without crossing intermediate steps. Lower step actually helps us to rise towards higher step easily and efficiently – Failure to understand this phenomenon is the reason for most failures on earth.

7. If we know how we failed, we won’t fail.

STEPS TOWARDS CREATIVITY

“Bicycle” – a new mechanical transport component was first introduced in a country. At the exhibition of the new creation, a man approached the inventor of the bicycle and on observing its crude, simple architecture mocked, “Even an inexperienced mechanical professional can manufacture it. Silly! I can design this simple vehicle. What greatness is there in exposing such simple thing?” The inventor without losing temperance said softly, “Sir, you are right. My invention is simple one, but, you don’t forget that the initiative, motive, imagination and hard-work which kindled its creation aren’t simple!”

Creativity dictates the world. Creativity is habit of making out-of-box thinking, that is, thinking beyond what our mind compels. Discipline, enthusiasm, patience, etc. are needed to conceive creativity. Great business and scientific accomplishment are achieved through proper utilisation of creativity tool.

Creativity can be enhanced by continuous thinking habits over our objective. Say, we have a problem for which we need some creative solution. Following steps might be followed to achieve creativity:

Step 1: Identify the possible solutions for the problem by individual or team reasoning.

Step 2: Fill our thoughts will the possible solutions and navigate for new solutions.

Step 3: Repeat the process for an hour or a day.

Step 4: Unexpectedly, we experience a sudden injection of creative solution thought into our mind. This might happen at any time, even during eating, playing, reading, chatting etc. provided we are conscious over it. One of the magnificent features is that the thought produced will be accompanied by strong faith.

Step 5: The faith guided creativity will aid our initiative and propel towards its implementation.
Dhirubhai Ambani, one of the greatest business man of India, who is a lateral thinker, says, “Think big and think fast. Ideas are no one’s monopoly.”

MAXIMS FOR INTELLECTUAL THINKING

A boat sailing along the stream will be only used as a “ferry or transport boat” but a boat sailing against the stream will be used as a “rescue or life boat.” Normal men are suited for making average living, super men only make superior living.

Value of our past = zero. Value of our future = zero. Value of our present = Billion dollars.
What happens on intrusion of past or future actions into our present living:
Value of our present with past thoughts: value of present * value of past = billion * 0 = 0.
Value of our present with future thoughts: value of present * value of future = Billion * 0 =0.
Brooding or craving for past or future actions at the present will nullify the value of present – This is the philosophy behind concentration.

Human mind is analogous to an electrical motor: “With THOUGHTS as input ELECTRICAL ENERGY, we have ACTIONS as an output MECHANICAL POWER.” Conversely, RIGHT ACTIONS in our life will bring us RIGHT THOUGHTS, similar to the principle of generator.

As a child, we enjoyed even simple transition from pencil to ink pen writing during our school days. As adults with matured mind, when we can inculcate such childish attitude in every simple undertaking, then, our life will become an infinite enjoyable experience.

Successful people have one thing common: “They think bigger before they do bigger.”
