Achieving Success
Life gives us many opportunities
to improve, but whether we do or not depends on our
effort. Once a week a person should sit down and examine
the progress he/she has made towards achieving a set
goal. If goals have not been reached then honest examination
must be undertaken to discover the reasons why. This
must be followed by extra determination that these goals
will be met next time.
Do not worry or become stressed if you
do not always achieve your goals, remember you're only
human. However it is imperative that you dissect why
you failed, were they genuine reasons beyond your control
or simply excuses? If the answer turns out to be excuses
then double your resolve and effort that they will not
stand in your way the next time.
Always remember that the harder the
goal you set yourself the greater the reward, not just
in reaching the goal but in personal development and
inner belief, making the next goal you set yourself
that little bit easier. Do not be afraid of hard goals
as these will bring you more reward than half a dozen
smaller triumphs.
Too many people who fail when trying
to achieve a goal become defeated and believe they just
do not have what it takes. Nothing could be further
from the truth. What they do not understand, or have
not fully grasped, is that all they need is to instill
within themselves a little extra determination, an honesty
with themselves why they failed, and then to have another
go.
The secret to success is to always try
to improve yourself - no matter what life may throw
in your path. Sure, there will be obstacles, however,
do not view them as insurmountable, be gritty and work
around or over them. Everyone really wants to do something,
but there are few that will put forward the needed effort
to make the necessary sacrifice to secure it. There
is only one way to accomplish anything and that is to
go ahead and do it. A person may accomplish almost anything
if they just set their hearts on doing it and let nothing
interfere with progress. The "bigger" the
person the smaller the obstacle appears. The "smaller"
the man the greater the obstacle appears. Always look
at the advantages you gain by overcoming obstacles,
and it will give you the needed courage for their conquest.
Look back at obstacles you have overcome and realize
that the present obstacle will soon be added to the
list.
Winston Churchill summed up all the
above in two sentences:
"Never give in -- never, never,
never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty,
never give in except to convictions of honor and good
sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently
overwhelming might of the enemy."
