Mauro Libi: Success starts with self discipline


Dwayne Johnson, many of you better know him as the 'Rock' is a true success story. In 1995 he had seven bucks in his pocket. He is quoted as saying at that time that he knew two things.
1. He is broke as hell. 2. One day he will not be.

 He knew that he had to make changes in his life to change his direction. That meant he had to evaluate what was standing in the way of his success and get rid of those obstacles. Look into your company and see what is holding you back from achieving your goal.

 Next he accepted responsibility for his mistakes and he found that over time he could gain control of those situations and turn those loses into wins. To do this he had to focus on his goals and objectives and next he had to put in the effort required to reach those goals. He is quoted as saying, "consistent hard work brings success". As he did that he found that each day he had more and more control of his own success. Success seldom just happens, it's takes, thought, hard work, constant reevaluation of your circumstance and taking responsibility, it takes realizing that you do have control of the situation.

 He believed that one of the most important rules of success is to be yourself. Success starts with self discipline, it starts with yourself. If you really want  to succeed you will find a way, whether it is more education, better research , working out, if you put in the hard work required you will succeed. If you do not put in that effort then all you can expect is to have excuses why things did not go your way. You do have the ability to succeed, find it and do not allow any obstacle or excuse to get in your way of achieving it.


Last, I want to give you a quote from the Rock that you really need to think about and make it yours. " When you walk up to opportunities door, don't knock on it ...... Kick it in and introduce yourself. " Keep your eyes open for your golden opportunities and be prepared to act on them.

By  Mauro Libi Crestani.  Business hire management teams to figure out new ways to solve customer problems, improve products, create new revenue streams, and reduce costs.

Mauro Libi Crestani: Negative attitude can destroy your career and personal life

I once went into a car dealership for a car purchase. I was meet by a salesman who was dressed in a well ironed suit and he had the biggest smile. He introduced himself by name and he asked for my name. He offered me something to drink as we discussed my desires in a car.  Let me assure you, that you came to the right place. He had been with that dealership for years. His customers stayed with him each time they wanted a new car.  I was told that this car dealership was about positive attitude. The salespeople , the finance  department , the service department all had to be positive that their customers were treated with the best service and that all their needs and concerns were listened to and acted on.
