Will You Be Successful?

We all want success. You do. So do I. Some achieve it. Most people do not - at least, not in the way they dream of it. Why?

The principal reason is that the effort made does not match the size of the effort required. You see, most people just limp along doing the same old things, getting the same old results - day after day, week after week, month after month, year after year, decade after decade.

To be successful do you think you need to be extremely intelligent? Or good looking? Or have the most talent?

No, no and no!

Do you think you might have to be motivated? What about persistent? Do you think you should commit yourself to seeking ongoing knowledge?

All of the questions above deserve a resounding answer of "yes."

What then, are you doing to keep yourself motivated, keep chipping away at your goal and keep yourself abreast of information that will benefit your pursuit of success? Think about these things. You already know the answer, don't you?

If you address your shortfall in these areas you will be well on your way to achieving success. However, if you continue to put any of them off then all you are doing is "marking time." This time next year you will be in the same position that you are now - but you will be one year older.

There is no time like right now to make a start - not next year or next month. Not next week. Not tomorrow. Start now. Why delay your success for even one moment longer?
