THE VALUE OF ACTIONS DEPENDS ON THE COURAGE THEY REQUIRE. Ordinary people who do extraordinary things for others are those we later call heroes. When asked why they performed as they did, they often say, "It was nothing anyone else wouldn't have done in the circumstances." Perhaps that's their way of saying we all have the capacity for greatness. It is only when we are severely tested that we rise to the occasion and perform at the highest levels of our competence. You become a person who does the right things when presented with great opportunities the same way you achieve success at anything: through force of habit. If you make it a practice to take the appropriate action even when it seems unimportant and insignificant, you will do the right thing-without thinking-in important situations. If you let your actions speak for you, you will never have to worry about others recognizing your contribution.

It is almost guaranteed that you have, at some point, signed up for a membership website. Some of the most popular websites on the internet (many boasting millions of users) are membership sites. I'm sure most of you have used or at least heard of the following websites: Youtube, MySpace, Twitter, and Facebook. While MySpace, Facebook, and Twitter are actually social networking sites, they are also membership websites (that is, you sign up for them and use your account to access them). If you only notice these sites as membership websites, you'll fail to see the millions of other membership websites. Many of these are actually based around monetary gain. Many internet marketers pick a smaller niche (such as dog training videos) and build a membership website around it. These often lead to extremely profitable sites that earn loads of income. The normal advice here is to pick a niche that you love, that way you'll love to write about it. This advice is shattered when you see the income and realize that you'll love writing about any niche that brings with it cash. There is so much information around the internet about membership websites that it would be pointless to try to contain it in this very spot. There is, however, a free report named Secrets Of The Membership Millionaires that you should check out. It's absolutely free so there's no reason not to skim through it. The report talks about membership websites in detail and examines how many newcomers fail to correctly set up their first websites. It also covers how to get started with a membership website and go from scrounging coins from the couch to earning over ten thousand dollars a month.

WILLPOWER IS THE OUTGROWTH OF DEFINITENESS OF PURPOSE EXPRESSED THROUGH PERSISTENT ACTION, BASED ON PERSONAL INITIATIVE. Envious people sometimes attribute success primarily to luck. Nothing could be more wrong. As coach Darryl Royal once observed, "Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity." Success occurs when you have a definite purpose for your life and you take the initiative to follow through with action. You may make mistakes occasionally-everyone does-but any action is far better than doing nothing.

THIS IS A FINE WORLD FOR THE PERSON WHO KNOWS PRECISELY WHAT HE OR SHE EXPECTS FROM LIFE AND IS BUSY GETTING IT. We are happiest when we are striving to achieve a goal. When we achieve one goal, it's a natural human tendency to set another, usually bigger, one. W. Clement Stone calls it inspirational dissatisfaction-the letdown one experiences after a goal has been achieved and before the next step toward a new one has been taken. When you begin to experience that nagging feeling, it's time to get into action! Make sure you have a long-range plan in place so that when one short-term goal has been achieved, there is a natural progression toward the next.

DON’T BE AFRAID TO AIM HIGH WHEN CHOOSING YOUR LIFE’S GOAL, FOR NO MATTER HOW HIGH YOU AIM, YOUR ACHIEVEMENTS MAY FALL BELOW IT. Many businesses today advocate "continuous improvement" as part of their quality programs. They have realized that to remain competitive in today’s global economy they must constantly strive to improve every aspect of the business, otherwise they will be overtaken by the competition. The same ethic applies to individuals. All of life is a continuous learning experience. Every success and every temporary setback only serve to prepare you for the time when you will eventually prevail. Your short- and medium term goals should be realistic and achievable, but your long-term goals should always far exceed your present capabilities. As the Roman poet Virgil said, "Fortune sides with him who dares."
