Did you know that the average American spends more time planning only one of their two-week vacations than they do planning their entire life and career? So what do you want out of life? Have you thought about it?
Improved Results. Isn’t that what we all want? Success and happiness. That’s what it’s all about. But what is success and happiness? More importantly, what does it mean to you?
There’s a story about success and happiness that I’d like to share with you. Many, many years ago, man had abused the secret to success and happiness. And so the wise men gathered together to discuss what to do. They decided to take the secret of success and happiness away from man. But where should they hide it?
One wise man suggested that the secret to success and happiness be hidden high on the top of the highest mountain since man had never climbed to the top. But the oldest wise man said, “No, because one day man will reach the top of even the highest mountain on earth and once again find the secret to success and happiness.”
A second wise man thought to hide the secret to success and happiness deep in the ocean where no man had gone. But once again the oldest wise man said, “No, because one day man will go to the depths of the ocean and again, he will find the secret to success and happiness.”
A third wise man said that they should hide the secret to success and happiness deep in the earth. Once more, the oldest wise man said, “no, again man would one day dig deep in the earth and would find the secret to success and happiness.”
I’d like to believe it was a wise woman that said, “The secret to success and happiness should be hidden deep within the heart of every man, because man would never think to look there.”
And YOUR secret to success and happiness is there, deep within YOU. Only you can define what it means to you. And this definition changes throughout our lives.
There’s a formula to achieving success and happiness that I’d like to share with you. It’s the formula for getting improved results.

We can achieve Improved Results through a Positive Behavior Change which can only be realized with the development of the three essential elements: Attitude, Interpersonal Skills, and Goal Setting, both personal and organizational.
Attitudes are the basis of all behavior; therefore, in order to develop or enhance any behavior, it is essential that we begin by developing positive, success-oriented attitudes.
Much of what a leader is involved in and therefore accomplishes involves other people. To be effective in this continuous challenge it is important to learn, understand, and use interpersonal skills effectively.
Leadership, among other things, is the process of providing organization direction and accomplishing necessary objectives. The goal accomplishment model provides the tools and process necessary to achieve more goals, more often, in order to maximize results and outcomes.
