Success has everything to do with habits, beliefs, passion, flexibility and attitude. Often there’s nothing different between one person to another in term of ability. What it comes down to is having the frame of mind to set practical habits and keep a balance between attachment and commitment and letting things happen.
Most of being successful is about going beyond what you think you’re capable of. Venturing into the unknown, whether you fail or succeed you will learn and grow.
Attitude is everything. Success is created. It is not something that merely “happens”. If you firmly believe in yourself, you can achieve everything, virtually, anything.
Visualisation is powerful success tool because actions follow thoughts. Challenges are what create your growth along the journey. Bless each challenge. You should always perceive challenges as opportunities. If you are afraid to risk, you will put limits on your success and stay where you are comfortable. You cannot get what you want if you don’t risk rejection and go for what you desire.
Be willing to love and find purpose in all aspects of what your life requires, commit to it and see what you are doing as being a benefit to others. Have gratitude and look at all you have and realize how great what you have is compared to the situation of many others.
Make your faith larger than your fears and your dreams bigger than your doubts. Turn your pain of excuses into the seeds of success. Take the stones people throw at you and use them to build a monument.
