Every person wants to have more success both in business and in life. The desire to make the most of ourselves and feel radiantly alive is commendable. Unfortunately, with this passion to create an excellent life, many of us miss the mark by inadvertently becoming the victims of some common formulas for failure rather than relying on verified keys for success.
The question, then, is “How can you steer clear of the failures of these misguided people?” By taking hold of the reins, as you are doing right now. And the surest route to take is in the footsteps of those who have gone where you want to go.
The Most Widespread Recipes for Failure and Potent Tools for Success
1. A strategy of working harder, as opposed to working smarter.
This is an aspect of the pattern of feeling safer in “herd thinking.” Most of us grew up believing that we should aim for a steady job with healthcare and some kind of retirement package. This is less and less likely to occur and even more unlikely to be fulfilling. Almost all people with regular jobs are finding themselves working extra hours and taking second jobs just to make ends meet.
If you want to have a truly awesome life, you will need to work smarter. Get out of that herd thinking. To get better results, you have to do things differently. And if you explore the facts, you’ll see that working smarter means you can earn much more by working much less.
2. Waiting for the ideal opportunity.
If you ask people when they intend to start doing the things they genuinely want to do, the most common response comes in the form of a vague reference to that perfect time out in the future somewhere.
You may have realized by now that this ideal time doesn't ever come. All you really have is now. Opportunity, as you may have heard, may only knock once. The fact that you’re reading this indicates that opportunity is knocking now. The secret is to grab it and don’t let it slip away.
3. Fumbling around in the darkness.
You are creating your life. If you don’t have a clear vision of what you want to create, how can you expect to create success?
To begin, get a clear vision of where you are heading and how your life will look when you get there. Keep your eyes on your dream. Keep your best possible future in front of you on a daily basis and watch how your life begins to transform.
With this vision of a bright future in your mind, you can go out and make it a reality. If you are doing what you truly want to do, enjoying the things that make you feel alive and give life meaning, giving up is not an option. Many of the most successful people point out that the main secret to their success is that they kept playing the game even if all the people around them told them they were crazy.
The people who get the best results are the ones who keep going. Continue to take steps in direction of your goals. It doesn’t matter how tiny these steps may be if you’re moving forward. You may be surprised to see that even a tiny adjustment in your direction becomes a large shift over time. And the time to begin is right now.
