One Person With a Belief…
One person with a belief is equal to a force of ninety-nine who have only interests.
Peter Marshall, Scottish Preacher
It’s short, punchy and makes a whole lot of sense to me. The more I research and read about succesful people the more I see that they are driven forward by their personal beliefs. Very often those driving beliefs are about themselves; for example the Beatles were, in their own words, going to be “more famous than Elvis” – that was a clear belief and intention not a vague hope.
Beliefs generate confidence as they drive a person forward to create a reality that matches those beliefs.
I was tempted to end the blog there but I have a couple of questions buzzing around my head so let me spell them out as they might give you some food for thought…
What do you believe in?
And
What could you believe in more that would super charge your success?
Also from a corporate view point
How much do your employees believe in your company and it’s products?
And very importantly
How could you increase their belief?
Here’s to a motivated week!

They made a film out of his life which was Oscar winning so might be worth a watch! Details of the film are here http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0048337/
As to the quote itself I simply came across the quote some time ago, liked it and made a note of it.
