How to Change Your Life in Six Weeks – Week 2

Here is the second installment of six-week program based on one of the world’s leading researchers on motivation: Harvard’s Dr. David McClelland.

Each of the following statements describes ways of thinking, feeling, and acting that are commonly found among top achievers people. It will take you but minutes to go through each, but their effect can be life-long. Remember, the purpose of learning the methods of high-achievers is to help you improve your life as well as to serve as a role model for your kids. Remember my suggestion: note your answers in a notebook or journal so you can read them all at the end of the six weeks and think them over.
