Most successful people recognize the need to have a method of determining what is important to them. Since each person's life experiences are unique, it is difficult to define a universal system to identify what is best for someone. You might be asking yourself why you should even have a system for determining the good. After all isn’t that what thousands of disagreeing religious leaders and philosophers have debated for millenia?

I remember clearly the first time I had the eye opening realization that I could be successful and prosperous. It was several years ago as I drove my Toyota Corolla from Utah to Florida. Before leaving on the trip, I loaded my laptop with several audiobooks--one of them happened to be "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" by Robert Kiyosaki. Listening to that book was a turning point. I knew that I would never think the same way about money and work again.
