<p><a href="http://www.makepeacetotalpackage.com/clayton-makepeace/you-have-absolutely-no-right-to-be-successful.html">Click here to read the post at The Total Package</a></p>
<p>here&#8217;s an excerpt or two that i found particularly inspiring:</p>
<p>&#8220;&#8230;Everything you do today is a brush stroke on a canvas; a portrait of you ten years, twenty years, forty years from now.</p>
<p class="TTP_textindent">&#8220;The measure of success, reputation, wealth and quality of life you’ll enjoy later in your career is being determined right now; today by the amount of effort you’ll expend plus the quality of decisions you make in the next few hours, this week, this month, this year.</p>
<p class="TTP_textindent">&#8220;Your life will be little more <em>and little less</em> than what naturally happens to people who do what you do, exert the amount of effort you exert and make the decision you make.</p>
<p class="TTP_textindent">&#8220;So wouldn’t this be a good time to renew your commitment? To resolve to expend every iota of thought, energy and every hour you can to ensuring that your work achieves the standard of excellence required for success?</p>
<p class="TTP_textindent">&#8220;Give it a good think: What is it about your knowledge base … your skill mastery … the effort and depth of thought you invest in each project … the attention to detail in your finished work … that could be; should be improved?&#8221; &#8211; Clayton Makepeace</p>

<p class="TTP_textindent"> </p>
<p class="TTP_textindent">Keep fighting the good fight!</p>
