7 Must Read Success Secrets from Henry Ford



7 Must Read Success Secrets from Henry Ford

Henry Ford was a remarkable man who founded the Ford Motor Company; he was also the

creator of the assembly line.  In October of 1908 Ford introduced the “Model T”

automobile and single-handedly revolutionized the transportation industry as well as

the American industry.

Ford was an amazing inventor who was awarded 161 U.S. patents and amassed one of the

world’s largest fortunes, most of which he left to the Ford Foundation.

Today I want to talk about seven amazing success lessons from Henry Ford the inventor

and pioneer!

7 Must Read Success Lessons from Henry Ford:

1. Serve Others

“A business absolutely devoted to service will have only one worry about profits.

They will be embarrassingly large.”

The secret to success lies in serving others!  All successful people serve, the

greater the success, the greater the service.  Wealth is created from service, wealth

only comes from service.  Ford said, “Wealth, like happiness, is never attained when

sought after directly. It comes as a by-product of providing a useful service.”  Who

are you serving?

2. Focus

“There is no man living that can not do more than he thinks he can.”

You are completely unaware of your potential, because you’ve never focused all of

your efforts on one task.  You spend an hour of your day doing this, three hours

doing that, but you never focus all of your attention to one assignment.

When you focus your life, impossibilities become possibilities.  Get focused, you can

do more than you think you can!

3. Be Productive

“It has been my observation that most people get ahead during the time that others

waste.”

We all have 24 hours in our day, yet some succeed while others fail.  Why is this?

The reason is because some successfully control their day, while others are

controlled by their day.  Some dictate where their day goes, while other’s let their

day dictate where they go.

If you fail, you will fail because you failed to make excellent use of your time, if

you succeed, you will have succeeded in mastering your time!  Are you mastering your

time?

4. Solve Problems

“Most people spend more time and energy going around problems than in trying to solve

them.”

You will only be rewarded for the problems that you solve for other people.  Are you

solving any problems?  If you solve big problems you will receive big rewards, if you

solve little problems, then you will receive little rewards.  If you solve problems

for a few people, then your payment will be small, if you solve problems for the

masses, then you will become rich.

Don’t waste your time going around problems, solve them!
