When it comes to achieving remarkable success, we believe it wise to listen to those who have already traveled the path. There are some well-known examples of this – Oprah Winfrey, Warren Buffett, and Sir Richard Branson are all very popular Credence Innovations role models. There are lesser-known moguls that have a lot of wisdom to share as well though.

For example, Team Credence Innovations is fascinated by the story of Manny Khoshbin. He and his family came to America when he was only 14 years old, and had to live in a station wagon until his father could find a job. Today though, Khoshbin is a multimillionaire, with multiple homes and an incredible collection of expensive cars.

To duplicate his success, he offers this advice. First, to achieve remarkable results, it’s important to start with remarkable goals. He recommends having one-, two-, five-, 10-, and 20-year goals – and to make them aggressive.

Then, Khoshbin says to create action plans designed to bridge the gaps between milestones. We should have the path between our current positions and our 20-year goals clearly defined. If our goals are the vehicle to get us where we want to go, the action plans act like headlights illuminating the path we’re traveling.
