There are several guides around that are indicating that there is this marvelous "secret" to success. There isn't. This "secret" they are talking about is simply a sham to get you interested enough to purchase their product or service. Success is not a secret... it's actually very simple really.
I figure there are 7 distinct factors to finding success in your own life. They are:
1. Have Faith & Stay Positive
The most important thing that you can do on your search for success, is build a optimistic frame of mind and have faith that you will get to where you wish to go. Frequently, people are unable to consider an event or circumstance turning out the way they want it to. They only see a negative end-result. You cannot think along these lines. Not if you'd like to do well. At times, even when it appears as if circumstances can't turn out good, you have to find ways that it can. That's faith. That's possessing a good mentality. Use your imagination if you need to!
Some children are discouraged from a young age caused by inadequate guidance. Once others get older, they're made aware of this world that lets us know that we aren't able to accomplish this, or we aren't good enough for that and, in turn, our power to be imaginative and count on good things vanishes. But it can be brought back! All you've got to do is have formidable faith and use your creativeness!
2. Be Enthusiastic
In the past, I have found that no matter what work I have had, I've always been able to find something I didn't like about it. A part of this problem was my lack of passion towards the work I did. Thankfully, I've discovered the effectiveness of enthusiastic habits.
You've got to be enthusiastic if you want to find success. People with enthusiasm are always happy to offer more and work harder. But why? Well, it's simple... they do not focus on those little negative issues that the majority of people find in their careers.
Those negatives are super easy to find should you look for them and they can easily consume you to the point of failure, if you focus enough on them. Similarly, enthusiastic people see the positive things and therefore are pleased to be so lucky to perform such rewarding work. This is exactly opposite of finding the negatives in a job. Any time you find the good and concentrate on it, good things will happen. It is the law of the Universe. What you look for, and everything you make it a staple to target, you can expect to receive.
3. Have Courage To Take Chances
When you see what you have been longing for, get it! When an innovative idea comes to you, explore it! That is how you get your imagination back. You must take chances.
Many people never even realize that they have an imagination or creative ability, because when those creative thoughts or innovative ideas pop in their head, they scold themselves because of it. "They are certainly not sensible," they may say. However, those are the most realistic views you are able to have and by not exploring them, you miss your golden opportunity.
4. Go Above & Beyond
You've got to think large. You have got to dream large. You've got to do more and become more.
Go that step further. Rise a little higher. Work just a little harder. Laugh just a little louder. Don't just put in an attempt. Give it everything you've got.
5. Work To Serve Others
This doesn't mean go out and wait hand and foot on someone. It indicates, that anything you do, take action with the intention of assisting others. You may invent a thing that elevates the lives of others. You could start an enterprise that gives a very good service at an inexpensive price. Whatever you decide to do, do not work for cash. Work to elevate the lives of those who are around you.
Whether you are a farmer, a business person, a school teacher, a coach, a politician, a truck driver, a lumberjack, or whatever you are, when you aim to serve others with your work, you will definitely find more success. Basically, do not work for your income. Work to make a difference.
6. Be Persistent
In order to find success, you have to do something that most people never do. You have to persist until the end. No quitting, no backing down. You're in it to win it, or you are not in it at all. That's the perspective you have to take with you.
Sure, you are going to get knocked down and yes, obstacles are going to obstruct your path. Many people will also tell you that your path is unachievable. That's fine... because you're going to get back up, you're going to ignore what they say and you are going to go up that mountain anyways. That is how you persevere, and that is how you find success.
7. Be Thankful
There's not a person on this world who has best command over their life. Our life is our gift and we must be thankful that we have it. So, give many thanks for every good thing in your life. Your family, your home, your job, your friends... thank God for them. If you cannot help but find negatives, thank God for the lessons they have provided you with and thank God for the ability to overcome them.
