What is success? Is achievement same as success? In simple words achievement recognised by others is success.
Who doesn't want to be successful & powerful? Success is something that we all want to attain. It’s a destination of life that we always dream about. But is success a destination or a journey. One needs to enjoy life along the journey which is also success. To attain this success in your life, in whatever you dream to accomplish, you must realize that to increase your chances, it will all come down to you & the principles you set forth to make your dream a reality.
But success is not easy as it seems. If it was easy, everyone would have tasted it. Opportunity favours the brave & the one who is prepared. Luck is when hard work meets opportunity. These are the 13 principles to attain the success you dreamt of:
1. Preparation
Preparation is the foundation of success. The most prepared person is the one that has the best chances. That is the person that perfects his craft. The one that has those sleepless nights of working hard & the one that loves what they do.
With preparation, you essentially create your own opportunities & that is what can take you anywhere you want to go. It allows you to break the limits you place for yourself. You need to have the right preparation to meet your goals.
2. Pursue what you love
We stress this over & over again. Money should never be your end goal or your motivation. It has to be something greater than that. It is your purpose & what you become in this world. Doing what you love to do will allow you to give it your all & keep you excited while doing it. Find something that you enjoy doing, find your purpose & use your passion to propel you.
3. Work on your goals
People set goals, have dreams & want different things in life, but never get them because they don't actually start working toward them. They don't take the action that is needed. People love to push things to tomorrow, but tomorrow never comes. It’s about starting today & putting things into action.
4. Move in the right direction
Underst&ing the right direction & how to get there will help you more than you think. Things are not going to go quickly, in fact they are going to go slow & take time, but as long as you are moving in the right direction, that’s okay. Success is a marathon, not a sprint.
5. Dream big
What you see for yourself is what will manifest in your life. It’s the law of attraction. But it all comes down to working towards turning it into a reality. Your dreams & your visions can influence your life if you manage them.
6. Think big
If you look at successful people’s mind sets, it’s all about thinking bigger than they once were. It’s about having no limits & understanding that anything in this world is possible if you put your mind to it.
7. Focus on growth
Obstacles & challenges will always be in your way during your journey. It is about figuring out how to overcome them & continuing. Success is a problem-solving, solution-driven situation, & that is where growth comes from.
8. Make thing happen
If you are determined, you can do anything you set your mind to. It’s about finding a way to make it happen. Where there is a will, there is way or you create one. When there isn’t a will, that is when you should worry.
9. Clear vision
Success is about having a target. The problem is people don't know how to create a target, so they are just shooting darts in the air, hoping to hit something. Having a target will allow you to aim where you need to hit & even if you come up short, you will still come closer & closer to hitting the target.
10. Use affirmations
Affirmations are what will keep you going along the long journey. It’s the positive mind set of "I’m going to make this happen." It’s instilling the belief in yourself. With affirmations, you are defining your own reality. By transmitting this positive energy into the universe, it eventually manifests into reality.
11. Right People
Negative influences & negative people will pull you down. On your road to success, you need to keep all the negativity outside of your walls. Keep people & ideas around you that support your success & your belief in yourself. You are who you eat with & you are who you surround yourself with. Make sure you surround yourself with the people you see most fit & who will help you succeed.
12. Appreciate what you have & Thank
The final success principle is to appreciate what you have already. Appreciate what you’ve achieved so far. Being thankful & grateful will change your life dramatically.
