Three main factors that will help you become successful!

Today, I want to talk about success.?

Before I get into the topic, let me point out that success is really very subjective. My definition may not be the same as yours.?

So, let me first give you my own personal definition of “success”. For me, it is being able to find something that I love to do, and that I'm able to personally grow from every day.? Something that I live by is asking myself every day: “Am I better than I was yesterday? Am I growing, either personally or maybe financially or even professionally?”

Now we've established my definition and are all on the same page about what success means to me, let me get to the three main factors I believe to be crucial in deciding whether or not you’ll be successful.?

Those are: hard work, consistency, and always trying to grow or get better at what you do. ?Together, I believe they are a really good foundation for success.

Now we are all on the same page when it comes to my meaning of “success”.

There are three main factors that I believe build a really good foundation: hard work, consistency, and always trying to grow or get better at what you do.

As some of you might have heard before, there’s the saying “If you're the smartest person in the room, you're in the wrong room.” This quote can be taken in many ways, but I believe it’s mainly trying to get you to think about who you surround yourself with. In nearly everything I do, I try to surround myself with people who are making more money or are further along in their careers than me. This mainly means that I’m always pushing myself harder and keeping focused on where I’m heading.

I think hard work goes without saying, but from what I’ve found, the more you put into whatever you are going to grow or build, the more you get out. no one is going to hand you what you want in life, so the way you’re going to be able to succeed is by putting in the hours and hours that it takes to build a business or achieve your goals.

Lastly, most people can work hard for a few days, or mainly even a few weeks without wanting to quit or burning out. But one of the biggest mistakes you can make when you’re starting out is pushing too hard at the start. Because in most cases, you have to build some momentum before you see any results, and it takes a lot of trial and error to get it right. So you need to be able to consistently push forward.

This week I’d like to leave you with a quote that rings a bell with me and really helped me keep moving forward to achieve my goals:

“Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place and I don't care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard ya hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done!”

I hope you will find some value in this week’s post.

I can’t wait to share more with you soon.

Happy creating!
