I was looking through some books on amazon when I came across " The Toilet Paper Entrepreneur" By Mike Michalowiez. I bought the book based on the reviews which all give it a 4.5-5 star rating and couldn't be more happy. He talks about how people with nothing can achieve there dreams if they use what I like to say " one toilet paper at a time " :smug2:. After reading it towards the end, one of the advise he gave really made me think about what I need to stop doing and start doing in my life. Which was to take action and have belief if I really want it to come true.
This is what he said in the book.
" Where you are today is a direct result of your decisions. You are accountable for your success, and you are accountable for your failures. If you are pointing fingers at others, you are simply building a wall of more limiting beliefs, and your actions will be stymied. Just because you were brought up poor or silver-spooned or went to a crap school or were ignored on or were considered ugly or pretty or were held back or pushed forward does not excuse you from anything. All that stuff is meaningless, except that it brought you to where you are today.
Moving forward is not based upon your past; your future is exclusively determined by the decisions you make now, in the moment. The first decision is to take complete and exclusive responsibility for your success. Toilet Paper Entrepreneurs accept full and complete accountability for their lives, their businesses, and their futures."
I can not agree more with what he said in these two paragraphs. Pick up this book. It a true and motivational/inspirational book to helping and guiding you on the right path and mind set.
