One of the most successful investors in the world today Warren Buffet said he asked himself three questions before doing business with anybody or any organisation. 
   * Do I like them? 
   * Do I trust them
   * Do I respect them? 

To him the deal is off if any of these questions result in a "No". Many people have lost fortunes trusting the wrong people for a deal that looked seemingly right and mouth watering. 

One thing is certain, successful people don't do what failures do. Look for the clues. Successful people think differently. Even their smiles and handshake are different. They treat people differently, they are disciplined and focused.

If you want to succeed in life, you don't enroll in the academy of failures. You don't learn much about how to succeed in marriage from divorcee.

You don't learn about making money from a poor man. A dirty man can't teach you how to be clean. Don't get me wrong. You can learn from anybody. Even fools remind you of how not to be a fool. But a sociating with a fool cannot make you wise. 

**You don't learn about trading from a shoe shiner.** Look for the clues that make people great and outstanding. 

Find out about their lifestyle, their habits, their attitude and their thinking. 

Ask questions, observe, read their stories. Find out those things that make them tick and principles that govern their lives. 

Practice it until it becomes a part of you, like a habit. Look for people who are getting the kind of results you will like to have. Make friends with them and learn from them. 

Success leaves clues behind. Look for the clues and stick to them.
