If your like most people success is on your mind, could be a simple goal or an aggressive plan with many mountains to climb nevertheless internally we all strive for success. This desire is the fuel for implementing actions which propel forward motion to discover a way to express our inner values for the world to see. If we desire success we will find a way to succeed.
With each day we learn a bit more about who we are and why our plan is unique for us. Whenever there is a bump in the road our desire to succeed finds a way around those unforeseen issues. Some say that which doesn’t kill you makes you stronger! In life there are many obstacles which stand in the way, there is never a straight line to the top.
Why some succeed and some don’t – is baffling and seems at times unfair. We’ve heard stories of people who came from good families, hung around with the right friends, went to the best schools got degrees, had perfect attitudes, a burning desire to better themselves, yet still struggle in life, live in quiet desperation. When you look at the past they had every opportunity to be at the top of there game.
On the other side there are others who seem to just fall into it, never had a good education, have a poor attitude about themselves as well as others, sometimes not honest, however the only thing they have in common with those who have went down the right path in life is a burning desire for success. What can be frustrating is these people with there lack of virtues seem to always end up on top.
Question is why? how can good people end up with so little while the dishonest person becomes a success? How can someone who has only their interest at mind and little respect of others become a success, one who deals in drugs or engages in criminal activities walk around in today’s society purchasing expensive cars while others struggle to make minimum payments on small compact cars?
Bottom line is while most of us have the best of intentions for success, we might not put in the same effort that they do. They put in the time to market their ideal while efforts tend to fall short of the goal line. Most of us don’t burn the candle at both ends to develop a master plan as well as implementing our vision, they work hard day in and day out with little rest until their dream becomes a reality. Our efforts fall short when it comes to learning all we can learn about our product or service. Our circle of influence is not one of those where the people who can help us are in our lives each day. They hang with the right people. We spend time thinking while they spend time doing. Don’t get me wrong they might not be doing good things, however the philosophy is the same, their daily consistent activity yield’s results which dwarfs ours.
The universe is an amazing place, when good is not present evil is there to take the lead, when good people sit on their hands and do nothing evil has a platform for success. The way we can prevail is to increase our level of intensity. If we find ourselves in a place where life seems unfair even with a solid effort we must look at ourselves not others, life can seem unfair at time however it is us which must take responsibility and take corrective actions to change our direction.
Think how different the world we live in if we all put in 100 percent in all areas of life, read books to stretch our minds, replace bad habits with good ones, associate with good people with the same mission we do. How would the world change if our thoughts were put to discipline actions? Think about how many people would benefit from your actions, families, friends, etc…Our world would be filled with excitement and new challenges. We’d leave a legacy of prosperity and integrity with the absence of evil. The world would become a different place than it is today all because we put our nose to the grind stone and cared enough to help ourselves and serve the greater good of humanity!
