Introduction
I believe in you and in your potential to have a wonderful life.I believe that you will have more money than you need. I believe that you will be blessed with an abundance of friends. I believe that you will be a respected member of your community and that many will seek your counsel. I believe that you will be happy and content. I believe all of this awaits you as a spiritual businessperson of action who is a practicing Catholic. To aid you in your journey, we offer these Catholic Success Courses and the Catholic Action Principles. The underlying message of the Catholic Action Principles is very simple: 1. Improve yourself.Business success and resulting prosperity need not be complicated or mysterious. You will be exceptional, if every day you stop to think in quiet meditation and ask God, "How can I do my best at work for my company and my customers?" You will know. Then, you must do. You will be exceptional, if every day you stop to think in quiet meditation and ask God, "How can I be a better mother, father, son, daughter, friend, worker, manager, citizen and servant of God?" You will know. Then, you must do. As you empower others, recognizing God's blessings and your potential for success, the best of life will flow toward you. You will attract the tangible: houses, cars, tuitions, savings and vacations. You will attract the intangible: loyalty, respect, appreciation, friendship and love. You will have an opportunity and an obligation, you will have the time and the resources, to evangelize and share these blessings and make the world a better place. Catholic Success: Business is not a book. Catholic Success: Business is a course. There is a difference. With a book, you can choose simply to read through from beginning to end. However, if you approach Catholic Success: Business as simply reading matter, you will gain little. Actually, you will gain very little. I modeled the Catholic Success: Business Course, after a typical ten-week junior college course which meets three times per week for a total of thirty classes. Space the course material over the ten weeks and do your homework. Between lessons, take the time to reflect on how you can personalize the ideas to fit your own career aspirations. If you watch the video of my speech, you will see that I believe that each of us has guardian angels who are ready, willing and able to showing us a clear path to prosperity and peace. Watch for your guardian angels. They are there. As you pray and reflect, you will be able to organize your thinking into clearly defined goals, objectives and to-dos. Now, you really have something! You will have created a customized map leading to your own success. 
Each lesson becomes your hour class. Between lessons, your homework is to watch my accompanying video instruction and to explore the Resource Section. Later, I encourage you to add your ideas and expertise to the Catholic Success Discussion Forums.Each day, read your Catholic Action Principle and you will begin to develop into a spiritual, compassionate, no-nonsense person of action. You will know that you are you doing your best. This will make you happy, your family happy and God happy. If you find benefit in these course, as a thank you, please consider joining one of our CatholicSuccess.com campaigns: The 100 Book Campaign, The National Awareness Media Campaign or the Missionary Campaign. In these Catholic Success Courses, I am happy to share with you what was taught to my by my teachers. You are about to begin a wonderful journey of discovery. God has given you much. Seek and share your fortune. I am excited for you. God bless you. Bill FitzPatrick Go to Lesson One1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6Index |
