learn, practice... do it!!

Faith..... in God, in oneself, in the company one keeps.

Perfection should not be a goal to strive for- there is no such thing, and it's a subjective word anyway. What is perfection for me, might not be the same for you. Wisdom is a goal worthy of striving....one needs to learn and practice what has been learned.

idk...but let me know if u figure it out.....

balance of expectations and accomplishments

1) Realize that Life Isn't Fair. You will have set backs,you
will have disappointments and some people will lie,steal
and cheat you. Once you accept this and say "It won't
affect how I treat others or let it ruin me." you will be ahead
of the game.

2) You can't control anyone's behavior except your own. We
most often feel put out or hurt when others don't do as we
expect them to. Basically,hope for the best,prepare for the
worst.

3) Pay in cash. Live on less than you earn. Save for a rainy
day and don't buy into the B.S. that Madison Ave. sells. That
you deserve to live "the lifestyles of the rich and famous".

4) Do what you love and love what you do. Don't work a job
just to pay the bills. Find what your passion is and go after
a career that compliments it. It can be done.

5) Eat breakfast like a king,lunch like a queen and dinner
like a pauper.

6) What goes around comes around.

This depends on which reality you wish to be successful in.
If it's real life on this real earth than the study of the real laws of real nature and working in congruence with them and not drifting into another pretend reality is key!
As opposed to being successful in heaven and having to die as quickly as you can in order to shed off that unreal body of yours. And live in the bliss full reality of imagination land. See South Park for a nice description of imagination land!

I think it's 42.

Love for God.

The secret of successful life is hard work. Do not search for short cuts to success . Listen to every body , but while taking a decision , it should be yours .One can come up in life by being polite , honest and principled .

extending yourself to outside of yourself...stop focusing on your wants, your desires, and try to help as many as you can, it will put this special glow in you that lets you know you succeeded as a person.

do not trust no body

The Messiah, Jesus of Nazareth. He's the key, He's the open secret. No one but the faithful believes that though.
I find that unfortunate, because life can be so, so perfect with Him.

i think its hard work
and hard work and hard work
with honestly the key
and the secret for a successful life!!!!!!!
