The Seven Laws of Success MARILYN MANNING, PH.D.
There are four main reasons people fail to succeed: • Negative attitudes • Procrastination
• Ignorance about money and success • Failure to set goals

LAW TWO: GIVING
When we give, we begin the flow of receiving. The expression, “What goes around, comes around,” does apply. Whatever we give out seems to come back.

LAW THREE: EXCELLING Everyone has the potential for suc- cess. Some people undermine their own success because they don’t be- lieve they deserve it. I have used the following three rules to increase my self-esteem and attract more success: 1. Love yourself 100 percent – assets as well as liabilities.
2. Acknowledge your uniqueness and use your special talents.
3. Don’t take yourself too seriously. Learn to laugh at your mistakes.
