Are you disillusioned by your inability to achieve success? Our culture, media, families and others are often the source of what we believe about success.
Everywhere we look we are bombarded by the how we should look, the lifestyle we could have, the things we must buy...
so it's easy to believe success is about having a great body, living in a perfect home, earning a big income...
What happens when you don't achieve the success of your dreams...
does that mean you're a failure? Michael Jordan - star of American NBA Basketball said I've missed more than 9,000 shots in my career.
I've lost almost 300 games, 26 times I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed.
I've failed over and over and over again in my life and that is why I succeed! As he says the steps to success can be littered with failure...
yet its only when you take the steps that you will arrive at your destination.
1.
Find yourself a Mentor who will share their success strategies with you! It doesn't have to be someone you know, you could chose to buy a book and read about their life, attend one of their presentations, listen to their speeches, most of all take note of their wisdom.
Listen to them or read their books again and again so that you know it well, then copy it and act on it! 2.
Identify your own personal Values so that you know what's important to you! Once you know your values begin to live by them as the guiding principles for the way you want to create your life.
When you make your personal values important, you will soon realise your own level of success! 3.
Take control of your Thoughts and Beliefs so that you are not dependent on your family, friends, colleagues and others for how to run your life! You are the only person who can measure what success means to you and that measurement comes from what you believe about yourself and your abilities.
Michael Jordan took control of his thoughts and beliefs to continue wining basketball games, even when the results showed he wasn't a winner! 4.
Make Relationships important so that you can learn from other people.
If you hesitate to connect or communicate with others you will miss the gems of wisdom that make them a success.
When you connect with partners, family or friends and listen to their story you can hear or experience their gems, then decide if you want to copy it and use it for yourself.
5.
Become Aware of your language! This is more difficult than it sounds and is easier if you have someone else like a coach who can help you to hear what you're saying.
When we speak we're not just talking to someone else, we're also listening to what we have said! We're constantly instructing or telling ourselves what we believe, how good or not we are and much more.
Listen, take note and change what you're saying 6.
Choose to have an attitude of Gratitude! Be grateful for what you have so you can receive more of what you want.
A simple philosophy that has been part of success literature for centuries, it's often mentioned in the Bible and other religious writings 7.
Take Action so that you are heading in the direction of your dreams and goals! Without action nothing would happen and it's your actions that will create success in your life.
Success you can measure, experience and believe happened because of your own efforts.
The most rewarding form of success!
