The man that reaches the top is the greedy, plucky and the hardworker and never the slow, tardy one. The man that is choosen is the one who has produced results and who has learned that results can only be produced by untiring concentrated efforts. Miracles in Business do not happen. With a right kind of training everyone can be success.

Weaken will is the reason for failure. Don’t expect any one to help you. Make firm resolutions and resolve to conquer your weaknesses. No one can do this for you. You have to do it yourself. They can encourage you and that is all. To overcome a handicap is to use more determination and grit.

The man with great determination may be poor today but wealthy in few years. The bigger the mans will the smaller the obstacle appears.

It is impossible to concentrate when you are in any of these exited states : Hatred, passion, anger, excitement, strong impulses, Impulsive and Emotional Mind. It is a good practise to associate with people who are steady, calm, controlled and conservative. Those are in this negative state of mind cannot concentrate, they can only meditate. Their concentration power becomes weaker, they develop instead abstraction of the mind or absence of mind. They find it difficult to concentrate on any thing. Love those most who hate you. The mind that cannot stay on a special subject is weak. A person who allows his mind to roam at will will never accomplish a great deal in the world. He wastes his energies. Concentration by first last means - only about the strength of mind. If you work, think, talk and act aimlessly and allow you brain to wander at will, you will not be able to concentrate.

You concentrate the moment when you say – I will, I want to, I can. If you waste your time reading sensational stories, worthless newspaper Items; you excite the impulsive and emotional faculties and this means you are weakening your power of concentration. You will not be a free engineer, able to pilot your success. Concentration can only be developed by watching yourselves closely.

You should regulate your every thought and feeling. A person who cannot regulate his thought, wishes, plans resolutions and studies cannot achieve success to the fullest extent. A person who is impulsive is not a master of his thoughts, feelings and wishes. Such a person cannot become a successful man. When he gets irritated – he irritates others. When you are talking to any one –

give him your sole and undivided attention. Concentration means success- because you are better able to govern and centralize your mind.

When you are talking to a person, concentrate your strength upon the purpose you are talking about. Watch his every move. But keep your own plans before you. Unless you do this, you only waste your energy. If you want all your powers, you have to close all the valves and direct your power on generating mental steam on generating mental steam. Centre your mind on one purpose – one plan – one transaction. Anger, sarcasm and excitement weaken a person. The person who allows himself to get excited will become nervous at times because he uses his nerve forces and his vital energies. Just for a steam engine it is impossible to run with all its valves open, it is impossible for you to waste your energy and simultaneously run at top speed. If you throw a voluntary control over these thoughts, physical movements, messages, impulses and all physical instruments; you develop your faculties of self mastery. The extent you succeed here, in proportion you develop the power of concentration.

Any exercise that emotionalizes, excites the mind, stimulates the senses, cause the emotions of appetite in to action, confuses, terrifies or emotionalize – weakens the power of the concentration. This is why – all kinds of excitement is bad. That is why – people who drink hard, sing and dance with their emotions, eat stimulating food, who are sudden, emotional and vehement – lack power of concentration. But whose actions are slow – are like the engineers of the mind – mind is a machine but someone is required to engineer it. Without it, one cannot go far. Direction is concentration. Controlled breathing is very important. Control the movement of eyes, mouth, ears and fingers. Each of these contains miniature minds that are controlled by master engineer. There is no better exercise than listening to what one is talking- this improves concentration.

When you shake hands with someone, keep a feeling that you are shaking hand with 100s of minds. Your actions are the expressions of the mind.
