How to reach success - more quotes from Chelsea Singh

 

Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life - think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success.
Swami Vivekananda
 

Most people give up just when they're about to achieve success. They quit on the one yard line. They give up at the last minute of the game one foot from a winning touchdown.
Ross Perot
 

The measure of success is not whether you have a tough problem to deal with, but whether it is the same problem you had last year.
John Foster Dulles
 

Don't aim for success if you want it; just do what you love and believe in, and it will come naturally.
David Frost
 

I don't measure a man's success by how high he climbs but how high he bounces when he hits bottom.
George S. Patton
 

Always continue the climb. It is possible for you to do whatever you choose, if you first get to know who you are and are willing to work with a power that is greater than ourselves to do it.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox
 

Set your sights high, the higher the better. Expect the most wonderful things to happen, not in the future but right now. Realize that nothing is too good. Allow absolutely nothing to hamper you or hold you up in any way.
Eileen Caddy

Business Advice - What is a Unique Selling Point?

Once you get into business and start meeting other business people, you'll quickly find that you're asked about what you USP is.

USP stands for Unique Selling Point, or in other words, what is different about your business that will make people buy from you instead of your competitors.

The best businesses will really have a completely unique USP that their competitors can't imitate, meaning they corner a section of the market that simply can't go anywhere else.

However, it's more common that businesses will portray a unique selling point that isn't actually unique at all - but is perceived as so. The key to this is to be the first to do it, and / or to do it more convincingly than your competitors.

A genuine unique selling point may be a unique patented design, which nobody is allowed to copy for some time, or it maybe a family secret recipe or simply a particular location.

More common unique selling points might be price (though competing on price can be a dangerous game), quality or customer service - though obviously these are harder to prove and arguably not unique.

Some businesses come up with something completely original such as being the only ethical player in the industry, the only one to make the product completely out of soap or the only one to deliver a bunch of flowers with every order.

T.E. Lawrence

Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken winged bird that cannot fly.

Chelsea Singh - Strategist

What is strategy?

Strategy is a plan of action or policy designed to achieve a particular aim.

The aim must be specific and measurable and the strategy needs to be broken down into tactics: the actual methods, techniques and actions that will be carried out, that together make up a coherent strategy. Just like in the military, business needs a good strategy and  a good business leader will know when to hold the ship steady despite waves and when to reassess and change course.

Read more about Chelsea Singh and Strategy here.

A good strategist will be able to see the bigger picture, as well as focus down on the details, and will be able to see how all the different elements interrelate. There is plenty of training you can do to learn strategy, and became a specialist an areas from business to politics to saving the world.

But most good strategists have that special something, a little bit more - intuition. They will have gut feelings and instincts that help guide their strategies in ways that simple number crunching can never do.

Motivational Quotes from Chelsea Singh

If you want to succeed in the world must make your own opportunities as you go on.

Investment Opportunities - facts about high yield investments

How can you spot good investment opportunities? Successful investors know that there's no definite way to be sure an investment is going to produce high yields, and it's necessary to take risks and be prepared to lose some if you want to win some.

To read more about Chelsea Singh's current investments, click here.

Here are some facts about investments.

No sector is guaranteed - for a long time people thought property was the safest investment, 'guaranteed' to always produce returns. As we've discovered in recent years, EVERYTHING can crash.

It's not about what, but when and how much - any investment can be good if you're getting it at a good enough price, and equally, shares in the most profitable company in the world aren't going to do much good if you're overpaid for them.

Psychology is more important than economics or statistics - otherwise all mathematicians would be millionaires. That's because the markets are volatile and personal and react with emotion, not with cold calculation.

Chelsea Singh's Tips for Entrepreneurs that are Starting out

The entrepreneur is a rare breed. Sure, there are plenty of people who think it would be nice to run their own business one day, but for most of them it will never happen. So what sets entrepreneurs out from mere mortals?

It's about being bold and confident enough to take what you want, about having a strong self-belief and self confidence even in the face of opposition, and it's about getting to know the right people to help you on your way.

Don't be afraid to take risks

If there's one thing that makes an antrepreneur, it's a willingness to take risks. If you're not willing to take a risk, you're never going to win anything more than average. taking risks means getting it wrong sometimes. But entrepreneurs don't have time to cry over spilt milk, they have to move stright onto the next project.

Become a great networker

It's all about who you know. But that doesn't mean you have to be born into a family with riches and connections (thought that certainly helps). Chelsea Singh is evidence that it's possible to build up from nothing - but you have to make friends adn contacts on the way and you have to be willing to take their advice and know when to listen to their assistance.

Don't listen to people who put you down

If you have big dreams and are willing to take the risks to reach them, there will always be people who like nothing better than putting you down and telling you that it's never going to work. That's because they know they're never going to make more of themselves and so they don't want anybody else to either.

If you've got the entrepreneurial spirit, then contact Chelsea Singh via his business and who knows - maybe you could be working together on the next big thing.
