Move Forward in Faith

Learn To Be Successful With Ali Attar Move Forward in Faith Are you a person that will move forward in faith? I know I am. Even when the odds are against me, I have this inner "Go for it," attitude that seems to drive my life. This ability to see things from the end result, whether its from my business or my family, this idea has served me so many times in my life. The ability to live by a 'believe it and then I'll see it,' has created so many great things for me. Let me give you an example how this can work in your life. This has been a great week around the Putnam home! Bill and I have been working on our garden this week. I believe that people who grow a garden believe and have faith in the future. They understand that you move forward in faith. Do you have a garden? If you do, you know the work that is involved. One week ago, I walked by my 20x15 garden and said, "You know, I think I'll wait on the garden this year." I was al...

Don't Give Up Your Dream (True Story) -AA

Learn To Be Successful With Ali Attar Don't Give Up Your Dream (True Story) I love the sport of basketball and if you are a basketball fan like me you have probably been swept away by Linsanity! For those of you going “Huh?” – let me explain. Jeremy Lin who, at the time of my writing this has now started 5 games for the New York Knicks has taken the basketball world by storm. His output has been amazing. The New York Knicks have won all five games. But Jeremy Lin’s story has inspired me and so many others to not give up on our dreams. Jeremy Lin didn’t receive a single scholarship offer to play basketball in college. Instead he walked on to Harvard’s basketball team and played all four years without a scholarship. Ivy league schools don’t usually get a lot of attention and Lin wasn’t drafted into the NBA. He earned a spot on the Golden State Warriors squad for the 2011 season, but he didn’t play and they cut him on the first day of training camp this season. The Hous...

Principles Of Great Leadership -AA

Learn To Be Successful With Ali Attar Principles Of Great Leadership In my book, The Success Principles, I teach 64 lessons that help people achieve what they want out of life. From taking nothing less than 100 percent responsibility for your life to empowering others, these are the fundamentals to success—and to great leadership. When people ask me for the single most important principle, I share a simple formula. For years I’ve been teaching top leaders and thinkers in our world this formula that helps guide their decision-making and pathway to success. I don’t know any successful leader who doesn’t keep this on the mind daily: E + R = O (Events + Responses = Outcome) The basic idea is that every outcome you experience in life (whether it’s success or failure, wealth or poverty, wellness or illness, intimacy or estrangement, joy or frustration) is the result of how you have responded to an earlier event (or events) in your life. Great leaders don’t just know t...

Real Success : Principles Of Performance -AA

Learn To Be Successful With Ali Attar Real Success : Principles Of Performance Much of success is about performance. It’s about what we do and what we are able to inspire others to do. There are some simple performance principles I have learned in my life, and I want to share them with you. They really bring success, and what it takes to be successful, into sharp focus. They are also the basis for developing and maintaining an expectation of success. The Five Principles of Performance: 1. We generally get from ourselves and others what we expect.  It is a huge fact that you will either live up or down to your own expectations. If you expect to lose, you will. If you expect to be average, you will be average. If you expect to feel bad, you probably will. If you expect to feel great, nothing will slow you down. And what is true for you is true for others. Your expectations for others will become what they deliver and achieve. As Gandhi said, “Be the change you wish to...
