Get on the fast-track to success!

Ever wondered why some people keep suceeding and moving on in life while others are nothing but failures or are stagnated? Several factors have been considered even as uncountable researches have been conducted but one clear cut fact stand out: the successful and the unsuccessful have both made a choice of their present status; either conciously or unconciously.

The tips below and many more will serve to guide you to becoming an achiever. The choice is yours.

  • Lean on God-In Him lies the secret of all success because without Him everything will amount to nothing.
  • Read good books, attend seminars, watch and listen to educative programs- Your mind, it has been found out, acts on what you feed at. You must then be mindful that the information you take in are those that will build you up positively.
  • Be a person of character- Note here that character refers to the person you are when you are alone and is contrast with reputation which is what other people think about you. i tell you a good character will always give birth to a good reputation while teh reverse is not always the case.
  • Launch out without fear of mistake but rather befriend your mistakes- All sucessful people make the most of their failures. They always looked out for what wasnt done right and make amends. The number of mistakes made should not be an issue but teh number of lessons learnt. In a few words, enlarge your mistake quota.
  • Work for everything you desire and dont grab anything you did not work for- Be sure to check that your desire to go round the back door to obtain anything no matter how insignificant it may seem as this will biuld a get- it- the- right- way- attitude in you. Mike Muddock said, "you do not deserve anything you did not pursue."
  • Have a vision or dream, a focus and a sense of mission- It has been discovered from the study of people that people who have a direction go farther and faster and actually get more done in every area of their lives than those who have none. Setting goals is the first major step in achieving success in life. You must plan ahead for your life by setting goals for yourself. Shop for Brian Tracy's book, Goals! on www.briantracy.com
  • Keep an enlightened circle of friends- Two things have been said are most responsible for the level of success we attain in life: one is the type of books we read and the other, the class of friends we have around us. Someone has said that if you want to fly with the eagle, then you must stop scratching with the ducks.
  • Love whatever you are doing- Put into your job much more than the required effort. Have a passion, a motivation from within and a heart that looks not out for immediate rewards or accolades. ‘Be ready to Live for what is worth Dying for and to Die for what isworth Living for.’
  • Strive to be effective and not efficient- Efficiency is doing things right while effectiveness is doing the right things.
  • Make time work for you and not you working for time- This is the most precious of all commodities because it is offered in the same quantity to all. Never say I don’t have enough time ‘cause you will never have enough of it till you die. Create time for every important task!
  • Work with your convictions- Ignore the “this is how it has always been done” syndrome. He that commands a great orchestra must back the crowd; go against outward conventions and go for inward convictions.
