Default Edison’s Success Philosophy

Get ready for a breakthrough!

Whew… How enthusiastic I am now as I’m going to share with you
one of the ‘AHA’ moments in my life.

What I’m going to talk with you about has changed my life
forever and helped me achieve massive success.

I will reveal to you the secret of manifestation; how to turn
your dreams into reality.

Moreover, this secret is from one of the greatest historical
figures ever. This is a profound secret from one of the greatest
minds ever known in the human history.

So, are you excited?

Say YES.

Are you ready?

Say YES.

Here we go…

The secret I’m going to reveal to you now is…

EDISON’S SUCCESS PHILOSOPHY

Great! Isn’t it?!

*** Here it is: Success consists of, first, defining the desired
invention or product and then, second, experimenting until the
correct method is found.

What an awesome, simple and profound philosophy for success!!

Since I knew this philosophy I started to turn more of my dreams
into reality.

Edison’s success philosophy consists of two steps:

* The first step is to: Define your desired invention or
product.

It is the simple answer to this question: WHAT DO YOU WANT?

You must define exactly your desired goals. Your desired outcome
must be crystal clear that if anyone rather than you read or
hear it, then he can easily achieve it exactly as you wanted it.

“I want to lose weight”… This is not a clearly defined product,
because it can be achieved in millions of ways. One person can
lose 1 Kilo while another can lose 10 Kilos and so on. It is
neither clear nor specific.

“I want to lose 10 Kilos in three months” … This is a well
defined product.

So, before you start taking action to achieve any desired goal,
you must first make sure that you clearly know what you want.

The most important thing you must know is the driving force of
your life; the reason why you exist. What is your purpose in
life? What is your life all about?

You must know it and clearly define it in order to live with
meaning, passion and satisfaction. Otherwise, when you achieve a
certain goal you will face the shocking question: “What is
next?!”…


* The second step in Edison’s Success philosophy is to:
experiment until the correct method is found.

This step was a breakthrough for me. Before knowing it, I was
wondering why I’d never been able to set a correct and complete
plan the first time. Why I had to always change my plan? And if
I have to always do that, then why is planning useful?

After discovering this amazing secret, I found the answer.

First, your plan must be very flexible because IT WILL CHANGE.
As you move towards your goals you will discover new horizons.
Your mind will stretch and your knowledge will increase so you
will see better routes and accordingly you will change your
plan.

But you wouldn’t be able to start without having the initial
plan. Otherwise you would fail because you would be walking
blindly without direction.

The first plan will give you the sense of the right track of
exploration and discovery. Then you will improve it and even
change it as you understand and see more.

So, be ready for failures, obstacles and difficulties and be
open to learn the hidden lessons in them. Because each lesson
will help you come closer to the correct method.

Edison invented the light bulb after 9999 trials!!! He didn’t
consider them as failures. He perceived them as experiments. He
didn’t give up saying that it is impossible to achieve this
goal. Instead, he continued with his experiments believing that
the correct method is on its way.

Be flexible and open to learn and experiment until you find the
right way to achieve your goals and dreams.

Now you’ve discovered the success philosophy of one of the
greatest names in the history of mankind.

Just put it into action.

Start by defining exactly your purpose in life and then develop
a set of goals and plans to fulfill that purpose. This way your
life will be focused and meaningful.

Then try a method after the other until you find the correct
method to achieve your dreams.

My friend, success is a choice and it all starts with knowing
what you want.

Rise above the crowd and strive for ultimate success.

You can make a difference.

I believe in you.

Thanks for the post, but Einstein didn't invent the lamp.

I think you meant to say that Edison invented the light bulb.

It appears you just copy and pasted that post in. Pretty spammy. And what's with all the jabbering at the beginning. Get to the point! That turned me off so much I didn't read the rest, and I'm a huge Einstein fan.

You need some advice Tohami.
Your post sounds like you're trying to sell something. Well of course you are and I have nothing against it but you don't have to make it that obvious. Your advice isn't that new or great so there is no need for building the anticipation and hype. Also Einstein is a bad example of displaying success philosophy. He tried to make a theory of everything for 30 years and failed. Not much of a success story. I think you meant Edison from the beginning, so change the topic title .

I have to say sorry for my mistake.

I've to admit it and I promise the next time I will revise my post more thoroughly.

Let me explain how this mistake happened...

I believe so much in the principle I learned from my mentor Mike Litman which says: "you don't have to make it right you just have to keep it going"

So, I had a breakthrough experience when I read a qoute about Edison's Success Philosophy. And I wanted to share it here.

But it seems that my mind was thinking of Einstein and because I am fan of him this post went that way.

I didn't revise it in a proper way, I admit but as I told you I just wanted to keep it going and share my thoughts with you.

I think that nobody would do this mistake in his post, if he wants to sell something.

I appreciate your understanding, advice and correction.

Sure, nothing wrong with being passionate and making mistakes on the way. Maybe you'll write about it someday .

I agree with John. I tried to read it, but...I couldn't. Can you create a shorter post that paraphrases everything? I like to read and everything, but I don't get this post.

However, thanks for sharing something you say you care deeply about.

What do you exactly want to get going? Viral Marketing?

Your post are pretty difficult to read because nearly every sentence gets his own paragraph.
