SUCCESS STEPS

                  STEPS TO TAKE TO BE A SUCCESS

Identify your passion: before you can achieve success, you will have to define what success is to you. What do I have a passion for? What takes sleep away from me? Answers to these questions can help you get a glimpse of your passion. “only passions, great passions can elevate your soul for greater things”. Do you know that most life winners were ex-losers who got passionate? Bishop David Oyedepo once wrote “you are running with a vision, going on a mission or burning with passion. Passion is the genesis of a genius. Passionate people are persuasive. To be passionate is to be zealous about what you ought to do. Zeal is necessary in the school of success.

Set goals and things to do to achieve them: be sure to address both short and long term goals, try to think out of the box and come up with things that will bring you close to your goals. Discuss goals, aspirations, dreams with likeminded people and those that can help or support you in achieving that goal. “goal setters are goal getters”.

Live purposefully: in order to achieve your dreams and be who you want to be, you have to start paying attention to your actions. Your actions build you inwardly and outwardly. Do not watch things, wonder how things happen instead make things happen. Live for something. Know your purpose; for with purpose you know that you belong somewhere. Discover who you are and what your mission is. Be a person of substance that people will look up to. Leave a trail for people to follow.

Be educated: education gives you knowledge, skills, credibility to achieve your maximum potentials. Information brings transformation. Through laying hold of relevant information and applying yourself to such information can transform your life and destiny. Information is seen as the greatest treasure un the world of success. You need facts, information from books, materials, people. Get educated internally by feeding yourself with information that will change your life.

Manage your time: time management is the soul of success. Doing the right things at the right time, because putting important tasks until the last minute can cause unnecessary stress and increase the likelihood of errors. Use your time significantly and avoid procrastination which is a thief of time and a murder of destiny. Work with time and see time as precious. “time waits for no man”.

Stop comparing your success with that of others: if you want to be fulfilled and happy about the success you have got, then stop comparing it to that of others; instead use that time in bringing more ideas, making researches and improving on past mistakes to achieve more success. Make things happen.

Success does not belong to a selected few; success belongs to YOU, if and only if you are willing to go for it. Success is not handed out; you must go for it, take it but not by force. You eat success by becoming a successful person internally. When you succeed on the inside, by taking on the thoughts of a successful person, the results will show on the outside.
