INTRODUCTION

The Ten Commandments of American

culture focuses on just ten proverbs or
sayings that Americans use all the time.
They are not really commandments.
Several of them are not even worded like
commandments. They seem to be ordinary
statements such as, Time is money. They
have no religious or moral authority like the
Ten Commandments of the Bible do for
Jews and Christians. However, if you break

SUCCESS is probably the most praised

thing in American life. It relates to so

many other characteristics of American
life---individualism, freedom, goalsetting, progress, experimenting,
social mobility, making money,
pragmatism (doing what works), and

Example:
1. If an employee does something without
properly consulting his supervisor, and as a
result the company gets a big contract with
a new customer, the employee will get
much more praise than blame.

The success of
getting the new
contract is more
important than the
failure to consult a

HOW TO SET AND ATTAIN GOALS
by Karim Jaude
IDENTIFY YOUR LIFE VALUES. There is no
satisfaction in a goal you meet if in meeting it you have bent or
broken a life value.

MAKE IT YOUR OWN GOAL. Your goals must be

your own.

FEW BUT INSPIRING. Set inspiring goals, but limit

yourself to setting three short- term goals that are a little stretch, and
as many long term goals as you want.

GOALS SHOULD BE CLEAR, SPECIFIC, AND

MEASURABLE. The more specific your goals, the more focused
your mind becomes.

SKIP THE HOW TOFOR NOW!! Setting big, specific,
measurable and inspiring goals can be a scary matter. There is no need
to know how to achieve the goal, wanting to achieve them matters a lot.
A lot of people fail to achieve their goals in life because they tell
themselves they dont know how. This is just an excuse for inaction.
The truth is, when we focus on what we want with passion, the way to
get there becomes evident.
REVEAL YOUR GOALS. Tell people what your goal is and
ask for help in reaching it. Successful people enjoy helping others
reach their success.
REWARD YOURSELF. When you hit a milestone along the
way, reward yourself. Plan each milestone and your reward will help
keep you focused.

OBAMA and HIS SUCCESS MESSAGE
One thing that you need to understand is that
failure is an event, not a person. It doesnt define
you as a loser for the rest of your life --- unless
you let it. Failure happens to you --- it isnt who
you are. Youre not a victim, but it also doesnt
define you. So when it happens (notice I didnt say
if), pick yourself up and get ready for the next
event in your life.

You Cant Argue with Success.

There is something strange in the very way
we look upon success. A person is not
supposed to exert effort at the expense of
sanity. We ridicule a person who teaches
himself how to think and label him Tasio,
the philosopher. We warn persons not to
learn too much lest they be like Jose Rizal
who was executed at the Luneta in 1896.

Assertiveness is frowned upon because it

smacks of pride and ruthlessness. Success

to the Filipino, must come naturally; it
should not be induced or artificially
contrived. One should not be successful at
an early age because that would mean
exertion and hard work. Success must come
very late in life, if it is to come at all.
