G-------MY LIFE--I SPENT MY LIFE IN BOXING AS A MANAGER, PROMOTER, ETC UNDER ANOTHER NAME---(you can read G's boxing bio at----- ---www.thegeneralspage.webs.com-------Quote from The General, aka, "G": -- I made my first million at age 19 years of age, and I went on to do many important things in my life and having completed many type of deals, from promoting and managing top fighters,world rated fighters starting in the 70's and leading into the 80's having a boxing gym,, and went on to completing multi million dollar contracts in my non boxing work. "What did I attribute my success to?. G says the answer is: " I approached every thing from short term painful things, to hard projects, to failures, temporary successes, whether it be in boxing or my normal non boxing business (see G's other business in my profile), and found that if I learned from the good , the bad and the ugly, and retooled, and never gave up, and used the laws of -attraction- (meaning I attracted the success I wanted by feeling the success and faking it until I make it philosophy, and visualizing nothing but success in my mind.)- From this, I discovered, all problems, and failures turned to success if I refused to accept defeat, had this passion, this deep down fire inside of me to win, this take no prisoners attitude- to succeed. Winston Churchill said in 1940, "I have nothing to offer but blood,toil,tears and sweat", and G says,I will give the blood, toil , tears and sweat and "MORE" and more and keep going until I get what I set out to attain as because of this I have succeeded at everything I have attempted in life including going on to head a multi national firm, closing multi million dollar deals and will continue to use this approach to succeed at what ever I attempt in life. And I will continue to succeed in all that I do.!!!!"-------- FAVORITE QUOTES THAT G LIKES:------- --"When we walk to the "edge" of all the light then we have to take the step into the darkness of the unknown.We must "BELIEVE" that one of two things will happen.
