What is the difference between successful people and unsuccessful people ? Are they born that way ? Did they get a better education ? Some say they are just lucky…
Truth is most people that are successful didn’t start out that way, There is story after story of people all over the world that have overcome adverse conditions and become very wealthy.
Born on January,29,1954 in Koscinsko Mississippi from an unmarried couple, she spent her first few years of her life on her grandmothers farm in rural Mississippi , when she turned 6 years old her grandmother fell ill and was forced to live with her mother in a Milwaukee boarding house where she was surrounded with extreme poverty, she endured years of sexual abuse and was raped at the age of 9 by her 19 year old cousin.
At the age of 14 she went to live with her dad in Nashville Tennessee. This was when her life began a new course, A stable environment allowed her to thrive academically as well as socially at East Nashville High School, where she would discover her passion for media…Best known as…Opra Winfery.
There are many commonalities among successful people however there are three key elements that are evident.
Direction:
Without direction you won’t know where you’re going…Each day is planned they have a sense of what tasks need to be completed and the order of importance, think of it this way, We all use a GPS at times to give us directions to get to a location, We know where we want to go however we don’t know which route to take !!
Structure:
Without some form of daily structure none of the tasks would be complete. Set up a start time and a completion time for daily tasks. Plan out each step of the task list as many details as you can, know what the objective for that task is. It’s a good idea to number each task by level of importance. Be realistic with your expectations for that day.
Discipline:
We can have proper direction and the best structure but if we don’t have the discipline to implement them you’ll never have success. Just knowing what to do is not going to get it done it’s about action. Keep a clear picture in your mind of what you want to accomplish and hold yourself accountable each day.
The distance between success and failure is not that far, just a few changes in your daily behaviors can have an amazing impact in the quality of your life.
It’s time for you to create your own success story !
