Rise and shine; better yet, rise and succeed!
Sometimes we refuse to get up and face another day. We feel so down and have accepted failure as
our fate. Don’t throw in the towel, you
are alive and that is a blessing. Your
kids are your blessings. Decide to
succeed and you will.
Success is a choice.
It is a decision. Rise up with
boldness and conviction and you will see success face to face.
To see success face to face, you must have clearly
defined goals. With clearly defined
goals you will be able to move from the past to a bright future. With clearly
defined goals you will be able to channel the necessary work for the expected outcome
to follow.
We are gifted with abilities and how we use these
abilities will determine our success. The
difference between an achiever and a failure is not on their abilities but on
their choice to succeed, on their passion to succeed.
The direction of your life changes the moment you decide
what goals you want to pursue. Your goals will propel you to a new destination. Your
goals can alter your life, your fate and your legacy. Your goals define who you
are and who you will become.
Goals are your stepping stones to success; they are the
foundations of your success. As such, it is very important to come up with the
right goals. To help you come up with the right goals, let us answer the
following questions:
- What are you most passionate about? What do you want
and enjoy doing? The reason I am
asking you this question is because the road to success is not a smooth road. Expect to encounter bumps along the
way. If your goal is something that
you are passionate about, humps and bumps on the road will not deter you
from your goal. No matter what hindrances you may encounter, you will not
give up. If you enjoy what you are
doing, if you are happy with what you are doing, you will pursue,
persevere and ultimately reach success.
- What are you doing right now? Examine yourself. Are
your activities supporting your goals, your aspirations? Is your present
career, job, business in conjunction with your goals? Answering these
questions will help you make your plans in support of your goals.
- What are your skills? Evaluate yourself further. Can your skills help you to reach your
goals? If yes, can your present
skills help you to reach your goals at your scheduled time? These
questions will help you determine if you need to improve your skills.
- Who can help you reach your goals? No man is an island. We all need one another. Networking is very important in reaching
our goals. Make a list of the
people you believe can help you achieve your goals. Do not hesitate to ask for help. Asking
for help is not an sign of weakness; rather, it is an indication of
your ability to use your network. It proves your resourcefulness skills. Keep
building your network to reach more goals or increase the speed to which
you achieve your goals.
Now that you have answered above questions truthfully, you can prepare a
plan. Make your plan as detailed as
possible including dates or deadlines. Implement your plan. Your plan will direct you to your goals. Believe and you will reach your goals. Forget your past; rise
and succeed!
