Comparables
Not many of us human types get up in the morning to focus on failing. We do our best, we learn each day, we try a little harder, we get a little smarter, and we focus a bit more on being successful. Whatever that means to each of us. One of our worst measurements of success is comparing ourselves to others.
She has a better gig, he has a nicer car, they have a better life. Most of us have fallen into the trap but the key is to stay focused on what success means to each of us. But we get stuck, meet resistance, and sometimes get in our own way.
Richard St. John has been teaching his principles since he learned the hard way. The concept may be simple but it requires determination and a lifetime of focus to execute.

Learning and Other Bright Ideas
A couple of years ago, I began posting quotes, ideas, and thoughts on Twitter each morning that could be silly, life changing, or anything in between. Some from December 2013

What Creates Success?
It’s the age old question. Thousands of books have been published on the topic. Millions of opinions have been shared. Endless leadership models have been created and business professionals have been trying to solve it since the beginning of time.
Theories and sayings, adages and clichés, all point to the ways for us to find the success we seek. But what happens if we find it then lose our way?
Richard St. John is a researcher, author, speaker, teacher, and student of life and success. He was triumphant in many business pursuits but stumbled. That lesson caused him to step back and find out why. Hundreds of interviews later, he has been teaching his principles which are simple in their outline but require determination and a lifetime of focus to execute.
