Success In Life Is Personal

By Alan L. Lee


Success in life is a personal endeavour. What one person perceives to be important and successful in life may be completely opposite to what another individual believes. This is why the world and it's people are such unique and dynamic forces in all of our lives. The opportunities presented to us everyday are diverse because we have such a great variety of people, interests and choice available to us. The truth is we have choice. We have choice in all of our decisions to move us forward in life. But we really need to know in what direction we are passionate about moving forward in.
[Accelerated Learning Techniques Brian Tracy]


The goals that we set for ourselves can come in all shapes and sizes. Some may seem small and some may seem outrageously ambitious in the eyes and minds of others. Whatever the size of the goal or whatever the goal is, when we accomplish it, it will equate to success no matter how big or small. If you feel that making tiny little steps is more of your nature, then set small goals for yourself in your life. A bucket full of small incremental successes is just as valid as reaching a long-term goal in larger steps. As a matter of fact, every long-term goal requires smaller short-term goals for them to ultimately come to fruition. That's just the way it works. We've all heard of the concept of the "overnight success", right?

When deciding on the path in life you would like to pursue you must be true to yourself. Do not set goals for yourself that others place on you. Find what it is that you desire and go for it.Feeling successful brings it's rewards. It brings with it happiness, raised self esteem and confidence that when combined snowballs and makes success even sweeter.When starting out on your personal crusade of finding your own success there are many things you can do. The following are tried and tested techniques that can give you the winning edge.

Stay focused. I want to stress this point as many people start out very enthusiastic and then lose their momentum. To achieve success in any area you need to stay focused on your goals and pursue them with tenacity.Learn from people who have achieved what you desire. Learn from the best but never compromise what you desire.Work at your goal. If what you are going for is really worth it then you will not mind working hard for it. If the effort needed to achieve your goals to be successful does not excite you then you need to ask yourself the question is this goal for you or are you trying to please somebody else.

I know the answer already, but let me ask the question anyway: Do you want to realize success in life? Who in his or her right mind is going to say he wants to be a failure, right. On the other hand, some people who answer yes in words say no by their actions. "Lazy hands make a man poor, but diligent hands bring wealth," the Bible says (Proverbs 10:4).Talk is cheap. Realizing success in life requires that we conscientiously do the things that enable us to avoid failure. And according to the verse above, lazy hands make one poor. Note that the verse is not job-specific. Lazy hands make one poor, no matter what the person's goal in life is. Similarly, "Diligent hands bring wealth," no matter what you aspire to do.

The journey towards your ultimate goals is an exciting one when we have incremental successes along the way. And when we achieve those successes along the way, it's important to celebrate them and to be inspired by them, so that we are motivated to achieve the ultimate goals in our lives as well.
