Being a nice person is going to get you a lot further in life than being an asshole.

Let me tell you this, 9 out of 10 top tier entrepreneurs you’ll meet are the nicest people around.

Where you’re going to run into jerks is right below the high level guys. Mid-level people.

Everybody says, "Oh, people at the top are fake.”

Trust me, they’re going to be some of the nicest people you'll ever meet.

To succeed, you have to be likable, and being aggressive and rude is very dangerous.

Here’s why:

If you’re an asshole, you’re gonna attract like minded people.  It’s a downward spiral. If you're an asshole to people, all the good people around you leave. You're left with assholes, who then do bad things to you and then you become more of an asshole.

Part of the reason why so many successful people are nice to everyone is because they’ve already made it. They really don’t care about beating others. They’re only concerned with what they’re doing, and too busy to listen to other people’s negativity.

I always say that in order to be successful, you have to have humility. That means that you listen to what others have to say, and you recognize that you’re not the best and brightest person in the room.

You have to respect other people, because no matter who they are, you might learn something from them. To be the most successful person, you need to ask more questions and have the least answers.

Hi, I often tell people that genius is not so much talent as it is attitude… You see, your attitude is the environment you decide to carry with you during the day. It proclaims to the world what you think of yourself and indicates the sort of person you have made up your mind to be. A genius attitude is deciding that you can do well at anything you make up your mind to do. When you do that, you give the project all you’ve got, and in doing so, attract the favorable attention of others. Attitude is one of the most commonly used and yet most misunderstood words in the English language. However, if you understand what attitude really is, you’ll know how to bring the best of you to the surface every day... To your success, Bob Proctor Chairman & Co-Founder Proctor Gallagher Institute
How can you be way happier, less depressed, have less anxiety and fear?  Let's talk about this book,  "The Happiness Advantage" . It's pretty interesting. "The Happiness Advantage" is  an international best seller and talks about the seven principles of positive psychology that fuel success and performance at work.  What are the seven? The happiness advantage number one, the fulcrum and the lever number two, the tetris effect number three, falling up number four, the zorro cycle number five. Number six, the 20 second rule, and number seven, social investment.  It's a good book. Just finished doing my book of the day, and I thought I'd share it with you. I'll just give you a few little points, not going to go through the whole book. Find something to look forward to. So, I'm going to give you three tips that I thought were interesting in this book.

Why is this email important? Well if you care about your business it is! OK now that that's out of the way let me tell you why you need to keep reading this.  Imagine that you have the world’s greatest company. Now imagine that you want to share your service or product with the world and make a living off it. It makes sense, right? An awesome company is going to sell on its own, it’ll be a huge hit! Simple math (Great product = tons of sales) Now reality is settling in, those initial customers you had aren’t singing your praises. They're content but once they’ve purchased it they’re gone. What happened?  What’s missing here? It’s simple. Marketing.  You have a great service, but no one knows about it! And how would your potential consumers know? They can’t read your mind and find it. Unless you're showing people ads they’ll never know you exist. It’s a sad truth but a truth nonetheless. Marketing exists to sell services. Social Marketing S...
