Succeeding In An Increaasingly, Unsuccessful Economy

Posted By: Jessica Angelique on November 10, 2008 Succeeding In An Increasingly, Unsuccessful Economy By Jessica Angélique Author of Life Goal Success How do you define success? Perhaps you have given up on the concept, because of the current state of the economy. Perhaps you think that or believe that it really is not worth all the time and effort to open your business, publish a book, or find a job. Well, you would not be alone in feeling this way, but you can choose to do differently and overcome your current circumstances. I have been asked time and again about the true building blocks of success. Most people think or believe that there is some magic potion or numerical equation that they need to follow religiously in order to be a success. There is no magic, nor will paying huge sums of money to someone, ensure you future success. If you want to know the secret to success, I will tell you. No, this is not my opinion or something that I read in a magazine one day. These are the true building blocks of success. Block #1 Belief: To believe in, or have faith in something or someone that is unseen. The first building block of success is believing that you, or your circumstances can and will change. One of the key, fundamental characteristics, of those people who are successful, is belief. They believe that they can do better, and they believe in what they are doing or trying to do. They do not look to people, or things, to support their belief. They believe, because that belief is cemented in hope and a true desire to live life on their own terms someday. Block #2 Thought: The process of looking at or analyzing people, places, things, and ideas in the hopes of gaining a different perspective. The second building block of success is changing your thought process to equal success. The second, shared characteristic of successful people is how they think. Successful people encounter negativity and extreme hardship, but they think and believe that their situation will get better. How and what you think about your current situation says a lot about whether or not your circumstances will change. In order to be a success, you must think like the success that you want to become. Successful people never allow their circumstances to control them. Block #3 Behavior: The act of doing The third characteristic of successful people is their behavior. Successful people act differently than others. When faced with adversity and unimaginable obstacles, they behave as if their circumstances had already changed for the better. If you change the belief, you change the behavior and that is what successful people do. Although they may be going through a difficult time, their actions, thoughts, and beliefs are those of someone who is not experiencing hardship. Successful people immediately begin to think of how to turn their situation around. Their every action is positive. They know, what unsuccessful do not. They know that what is, is not what has to be, so they work hard, think always, and believe in their own self worth and value enough to know that this too, will pass. They make immediate changes in how they live their life. Successful people never worry about what others think, have, or are doing. Their only focus is the picture that they have of themselves as a success. While others are giving up, quitting, committing suicide, stealing, and blanketing those around them with negativity and depression, successful people distance themselves and move toward a more positive and productive atmosphere. ……………………………………. There is no quick, immediate road to success. Success is obtained through hard work and a dedication to you end goal. You have to want it bad enough to survive the difficulties that come your way an into your life. Life Goal Success utilizes these three blocks to help others build a solid foundation for success. If you are struggling in your current situation, then pick up a copy today. It will help you refocus your energy and thoughts toward success. My life goal plans will help you map out a detailed plan of action in order to achieve success in your life. Real success requires hard work. Real success requires you to think and behave as if you already are a success. Real life requires that we all rethink our situation and begin making the necessary changes in our lives in order to invite success in. Giving up is not an option. Quitting is not an option. Think, believe, and act successful, and you will be. If you enjoyed this article, Join HBCU CONNECT today for similar content and opportunities via email! |
