Why are some people more successful than others? Why do some people make more money, live happier lives, and accomplish much more in the same number of years than the great majority? What is the real "secret of success?" Often I begin a seminar with a little exercise. I ask the audience, "How many people here would like to double their income?" Almost everyone smiles and raises their hands. I then ask, "How many people here would like to lose weight? Get out of debt? Achieve financial independence?" Again, everyone smiles, some people cheer, and they all raise their hands. Then I say, "Wonderful! These are great goals that everyone has. We all want to make more money, spend more time with our families, be fit and trim, and achieve financial independence. "Not only do we all want the same things, but we all know what we have to do to achieve them. And we all intend to do those things, sometime. But before we get started, we decide that we need to take a little vacation to a wonderful fantasy place called 'Someday Isle.' "We say that 'Someday I'll read that book. Someday I'll start that exercise program. Someday I'll upgrade my skills and earn more money. Someday I'll get my finances under control and get out of debt. Someday I'll do all those things that I know I need to do to achieve all my goals. Someday."
