What a day so far, its only 10AM!!!!!!!!
So I am in the middle of reading "Success through a positive mental attitude" by Napoleon Hill. And It really has kickstarted me. Since I work nights I read up to chapter 9 and have accomplished many things today.
-Listed a local classified add for my products, even though I didn't think I was ready.
-Stopped by Indiana University and submitted my application for the MBA program(didn't think I was ready for this either, but it turns out I am doing it just in time to enter 2 pre-req summer classes).
-Requested 3 different transcripts
-Called about 2 different commercial properties where I could possibly start my business.
That is about it so far.
The book has some very good information so far, Chapter Eight, the secret of getting things done has really helped me in just a matter of hours. I am soooo bad at procrastination, but it teaches a way to really get things done.
So thanks to whoever suggested this book, it has been a blessing.

Because of your post, I'm going out today to get this book. I've read Napoleaon Hill's "Think and Grow Rich" and I think this has been the most inspirational book I've ever read. I didn't even think of looking for other books he's written. Thanks

I bet that if you can do that all in one day then you've always had the skills to do it. If the book has motivated you then thats awsome.... nice job!

I bought the same book also, I haven't read it yet because this one came first. I'm sure I'll post more after I get into that one
