ONE HUNDRED PERCENT RESPONSIBILITY
FOR EVERYTHING
As I mentioned in the introduction, back in 1969 only 1 year out of graduate school I had the good fortune to work for W. Clement Stone. He was a self-made multimillionaire worth $600 million at the time and that was long before all the dot-com millionaires came along in the ’90s. Stone was also America’s premier success guru. He was the publisher of Success Magazine, author of The Success System That Never Fails, and coauthor with Napoleon Hill of Success Through a Positive Mental Attitude.

I took 100% responsibility for my life.
