SUCCESS IS PREDICTABLE
SUCCESS IS NOT AN ACCIDENT, SADLY, FAILURE IS NOT AN ACCIDENT EITHER. YOU SUCCEED WHEN YOU DO WHAT OTHERS SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE DO, OVER AND OVER, UNTIL THESE BEHAVIORS BECOME A HABIT. LIKEWISE, YOU FAIL IF YOU DON'T DO WHAT SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE DO. IN EITHER CASE, NATURE IS NEUTRAL. NATURE DOES NOT TAKE SIDES. NATURE DOESN'T CARE. WHAT HAPPENS TO YOU IS SIMPLY TAKE SIDES. NATURE DOESN'T CARE. WHAT HAPPENS TO YOU IS SIMPLY A MATTER OF LAW - THE LAW OF CAUSE AND EFFECT.
YOU CAN LOOK AT YOURSELF AS A MACHINE WITH A DEFAULT MECHANISM. YOUR DEFAULT MECHANISM IS THE ALMOST IRRESISBLE ATTRACTION OF THE EXPEDIENCY FACTOR AND THE PATH OF THE ADSENSE OF SELF-DISCIPLINE, YOUR DEFAULT MECHANISM GOES OFF AUTOMATICALLY. THIS IS THE MAIN CAUSE OF UNDERACHIEVEMENT AND THE FAILURE DTO REALIZE YOUR TRUE POTENTIAL.
WHEN YOU ARE NOT WORKING DELIBERATELY, CONSCIOUSLY, AND CONTINUOUSLY, TO DO, BE, AND HAVE THOSE THINGS THAT CONSTITUTE SUCCESS FOR YOU, YOUR DEFAULT MECHANISM IS AT WORK. YOU END UP DOING THOSE FUN, EASY, AND LOW-VALUE THINGS IN THE SHORT TERM THAT LEAD TO FRUSTRATION, FINANCIAL WORRIES, AND FAILURE IN THE LONG TERM.
THE SECRET OF SUCCESS
THE GREAT OIL MAN, H.L HUNT, WHO WAS AT ONE TIME THE RICHEST SELF-MADE BILLIONAIRE IN THE WORLD, WAS ONCE ASKED BY A TELEVISION JOURNALIST FOR HIS "SECRET OF SUCCESS". HE REPLIED: " THERE ARE ONLY THREE REQUIREMENTS FOR SUCCESS. FIRST, DECIDE EXACTLY WHAT IT IS YOU WANT IN LIFE. SECOND, DETERMINE THE PRICE THAT YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE TO PAY TO GET THE THINGS YOU WANT. AND THIRD, AND THIS IS MOST IMPORTANT, RESOLVE TO PAY THAT PRICE".
ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT REQUIREMENTS FOR SUCCESS, ONCE YOU HAVE DECIDED WHAT IT IS THAT YOU WANT, IS THE QUALITY OF WILLINGNESS. SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE ARE WILLING TO PAY THE PRICE, WHATEVER IT IS AND FOR AS LONG AS IT TAKES, UNTIL THEY ACHIEVE THE RESULTS THEY DESIRE.
EVERYONE WANTS TO BE SUCCESSFUL. EVERYONE WANTS TO BE HEALTHY, HAPPY, THIN, AND RICH. BUT MOST PEOPLE ARE NOT WILLING TO PAY THE PRICE. OCCASIONALLY, THEY MAY BE WILLING TO PAY PART OF THE PRICE. BUT THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO PAY THE WHOLE PRICE. THEY ALWAYS HOLD BACK. THEY ALWAYS HAVE SOME EXCUSE OR RATIONALIZATION FOR NOT DISCIPLINING THEMSELVES DO DO EVERYTHING THAT THEY NEED TO BE TO ACHIEVE THEIR GOALS.
PAY THE PRICE
HOW CAN YOU TELL WHEN YOU HAVE PAID THE FULL PRICE OF SUCCESS? IT'S SIMPLE. LOOK AROUND YOU. THERE IT IS! YOU CAN ALWAYS TELL HOW MUCH OF THE PRICE OF SUCCESS YOU HAVE PAID BY LOOKING AT YOUR CURRENT LIFESTYLE AND YOUR BANK ACCOUNT. BY THE LAW OF CORRESPONDENCE, YOUR OUTER WORLD WILL, LIKE A MIRROR, ALWAYS REFLECT THE PERSON YOU ARE AND THE PRICE YOU HAVE PAID ON THE INSIDE.
THERE IS AN INTERESTING POINT ABOUT THE PRICE OF SUCCESS, IT MUST ALWAYS BE PAID IN FULL - AND IN ADVANCE. SUCCESS, HOWEVER YOU DEFINE IT, IS NOT LIKE A RESTAURANT WHERE YOU PAY AFTER YOU HAVE ENJOYED YOUR MEAL. INSTEAD IT IS LIKE A CAFETERIA, WHERE YOU CAN CHOOSE WHATEVER YOU WANT, BUT YOU MUST PAY FOR IT BEFORE YOU EAT IT.
MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKER ZIG ZIGLAR SAYS, "THE ELEVATOR TO SUCCESS IS OUT OF ORDER, BUT THE STAIRS ARE ALWASY OPEN.
