Section 1:

SUCCESS IS A SYSTEM, NOT A SECRET

That some achieve great success, is proof to all that others can achieve it as well.

— ABRAHAM LINCOLN

When you make the commitment to learn something new, don't you put in concerted mental and physical effort on a repeated basis to become proficient in the new task? You apply knowledge that's necessary to achieve the results that you desire. All of us have been using this kind of a system for success our entire lives.

For example, think about when you first learned to ride a bicycle. Didn't you spend hours learning how to balance and move on the bike without falling? I can recall vividly the times that I crashed and fell off my bike while learning to ride on two wheels. I spent hours practicing what I was taught over and over. I watched family and friends ride their bikes without falling. I dreamed about sailing down the street, feeling the wind through my hair as I expertly rode my bike. Every day I thought about and practiced riding. When I made progress, I expressed tremendous gratitude. Once I believed strongly that it was possible to ride my bike without falling, things shifted and I began to see more evidence of my improvement.

Can you remember learning to type? At first, the keyboard was scary: it wasn't even in alphabetical order! Now after years of practice, maybe you're one of those people who is able to type without much thought. I know some teenagers who can type as fast as they can speak. Wow!

What about reading? Didn't you learn to sound out each word with great effort? Then you had to understand the meaning of the words, relate them to a sentence, a paragraph, and a story. Years later, having read countless numbers of words, you're most likely able to simply skim pages of words with the same successful understanding of their meaning.

I hope that you're beginning to recognize that success is a system. Champion auto racer, Bobby Unser shared, "Success is where preparation and opportunity meet." As you continually prepare to be successful, you will notice more opportunities to achieve your goals. Both physical and mental repetition are key components of your preparation as part of the success system. In essence, repetition reaps
