Principle #2, A Definite Chief Aim

Quotes from " Law of Success" by Napoleon Hill

"Until you select a definite purpose in life you dissipate your energies and spread your thoughts over so many subjects and in so many different directions that they lead not to power but to indecision and weakness."

"Any definite Chief Aim that is deliberately fixed in the mind and held there with a firm determination to realize it, finally saturates the entire subconscious mind until it automatically influences the physical action of the body toward the attainment of that purpose."

"If success depends upon power, and if power is organized effort, and if the first step in the direction of organization is a definite purpose, then one may easily see why such a purpose is essential."

"Your Definite Chief Aim in life should be selected with deliberate care, and after it has been selected, it should be written out and placed where you will see it at least once a day."

This is the "How To"
"There is some one thing that you can do better than anyone else in the world could do, search until you find out what this particular line of endeavor is, make it the object of your Definite Chief Aim, and then organize all your forces and attack it with the belief that you are going to win."

From Dad:
In anything you read, hear, or see, you should run this process; Write down these four words and fill out what it means to you!

R2A2
Recognize- (This is what you recognized or learned or thought about the subject)
Relate- (This is what it means to you)
Assimilate- (How you will assimilate the idea into your life, what changes you'll make)
