Idea 80 - The List (part 1)

People keep Tweeting me, and they're all asking the same thing: "What were those keys to success that you mentioned the other day at lunch?" See, I've developed a simple list of one-word concepts that are crucial for winning in life, love, art, and business, and I'll often mention them to people over sandwiches or whatever. The List is actually part of a much larger system that includes a lot of breathing exercises, but I'm considering releasing just The List as a very short book because people hate reading.

So here's part of the now-famous List for your blogging pleasure. The right way to use it is to recite the entire List, in your head, mentally, just before important life events like interviews or telling your spouse that you want a divorce. Make sure you think in all caps, and loudly. Here we go:

-POWER
-ACCESS
-DELIVERY
-INTENTION
-OBJECTS
-FOCUS/FOCUSING
-TECHNIQUE
-FIRE
-CONVICTION
-ATTACK!
-INTENSITY
-SHOE-IN
-PROCESS
-THUNDER
-PLANNING
-VIBRANCE (SP?)
-CLARIFICATION
-POWER (YES, AGAIN)
-APPROACH
-DELIBERATE (LONG "A")
-REACHING
-CO-OPT
-MASTER AND/OR MASTERY
-DESTRUCTION
-(BE) TENDER
-DAMPEN
-SOARING

For the rest of the List, you'll have to buy the book. Or follow my Tweets -- I'll be revealing two more words every day for the next 8 months as a teaser for the full list.
