Key 1: Clarity

"Have vision, Determine what you want to be, do or have in life. Have a sense of direction and know where you're going. If you do not have clear specific goals in life, you are doomed forever to work for others who do."

          I really really like what key 1 is saying because it's honestly true what it says about having a vision. I absolutely love the part that says that if you don't have goals you're doomed forever to work for others who do because just by reading that sentence it hits you like oh dam you know it's kinda crazy. just by reading this it makes you wake up and realize a lot of things.

Key 2: Competence 

"If you commit to excellence, opportunities will always come you way. The harder you work the better you get."

               The quote is absolutely right in my opinion, the more work you put in the more you will receive. I could actually relate to this quote because when I was learning how to play the drums that's pretty much all i ever wanted to do. Just lock my self up and practice and practice, I was about 12 when I was first learning how to play. So i would go in there to practice from 2-4 hours a day daily and when i had about 6 months playing already i was a little beast drumming machine. I would go to gigs and get paid very well, so yes I do believe that the more work you put in the better you get. All it takes is dedication and  have to stay committed to what ever you're doing.

Key 3: Concentration

"Make the best use of you time. Ask yourself "is this the best use of my time?" before you start anything." 

Key 5: Creativity 

"Except the fact that every human being is a genius. The hallmark of creativity is asking questions. The people who are most creative ask the most questions." 

          

  Key 6: Consideration 

  "The quality of your relationships with other people will determine you success in life." 

  Develop the people skills you need to become a better communicator. Take courses in listing, speaking, etc."

  "If you were to learn one new word a day, within 5 years, you'll be the best educated person in history."
