The 7 Best-Kept Secrets To Ultimately Achieve Success in Your
Life and Your Home Business
Achievement. Accomplishment. Victory. Triumph. These are just
few of the numerous synonyms of the word "success." Likewise,
the word is usually associated with feelings of joy, pride,
contentment, and gratitude.
Who doesn't want to be successful? Definitely not you and me!
Of course, we all want to succeed in whatever endeavor we choose
to get into. In fact, it is said that the very purpose of our
existence in this world all boils down to this --- to ultimately
achieve success in life, to enjoy life to the fullest.
Now, when we say success, we may be referring to various
things. We may mean success in studies, success at work, success
in the family, or success in business.
It is important to note, however, that success is not all about
money. Although financial gain, which leads to living a
comfortable life, is a significant component of a successful
life, we should bear in mind that success is actually a personal
thing.
Can you really achieve success in your life and your home
business? The answer is a big, fat Y-E-S! Of course, you can! In
fact, the two should go hand in hand. A successful home
business, or financial success, can help you achieve personal
success or enjoy a successful life. On the other hand, personal
success can inspire and motivate you to be more productive and
all the more increase the success rate of your home business.
But how can you do that? By discovering, understanding, and
applying 7 best-kept success secrets to your daily living, in
general, and to your business, in particular.
Are you now ready to spell S-U-C-C-E-S-S in your life and in
your home business? Then read these powerful, best-kept secrets
especially revealed to you!
*S - Self worth. Be aware of your self worth.
Know who and what you really are. Then strive to become the
best of who and what you can be. As one character from the
popular film, "The Matrix," put it: "Know thyself... To become
who you are, know that you are."
Bill Gates, the world's richest man with a net worth of $46.5,
knew that he wanted to work with computers the very minute he
was introduced to one. At a very tender age of 13, he was
already programming computers.
By discovering and accepting what your interests and skills
are, you can decide which field you should get into. Then you
can further develop your skills to achieve your goals, to
ultimately achieve success in your life and in your home
business.
Are you now aware of your self worth?
*U - Uniqueness. Know that you are a unique person.
You have your own special talents. Believe in yourself. Know
your strengths and weaknesses. By knowing your strengths, you
can enhance them and more effectively put them to productive
use. By knowing your weaknesses, you can overcome them and
eventually transform them into strengths.
Did you know that by merely listing down your unique talents,
you can significantly improve your self worth? Be thankful of
these unique talents and utilize them to help you achieve
success in your home business and in your life.
How can your unique talents lead you to the peak of success?
*C - Commitment. Make a commitment to yourself and your goals,
as well as to others.
If you have commitment, everything else will follow. Being a
"committed person," you will work really hard to fulfill your
responsibilities. You will be accountable for your own actions.
Be consistent. You cannot achieve success overnight. Commit
yourself to do whatever needs to be done --- on a consistent
basis. Be patient and persevering as you encounter different
obstacles along the way. Do not hesitate to take an extra step
or two to reach your goal and ultimately achieve success in your
home business and in your life.
Are you committed to your goal of making your business grow and
achieving success in your life?
*C - Creativity. Be creative enough to see what not everyone
can see.
See an opportunity in every situation. Better yet, create the
opportunity yourself. Do not just see the extraordinary out of
the ordinary; turn the ordinary into an extraordinary.
Have a vivid imagination. Remember that all the great
inventions came from that --- a creative, imaginative mind.
By thinking vividly, you will distinguish the differences, and
succeed! Remember that the great men who achieved success in
their lives made decisions because they saw differences and not
similarities.
How can your creativity help boost your business and aid you in
attaining success?
*E - Education. Use your education in making your business grow
and in eventually achieving success.
I'm not saying that you necessarily have to possess a college
degree. In fact, many of the richest people in the world (Bill
Gates included!) are college dropouts and some didn't even step
into a university or college.
However, to be successful in your chosen business, you must
have some form of education. Educate yourself on your chosen
field. You cannot succeed in any business endeavor if you know
absolutely nothing about it, right?
You will need to know many things about your business. You can
take advantage of the modern age and opt to study via online
courses or home-based courses. Just make sure you are equipped
with all the necessary information about your business venture.
You should also have an open mind and be willing to learn new
things everyday. In this fast-paced world, things are always
changing and you must always catch up with the latest concepts
that will help you run your business and your life more smoothly
and effectively.
"E" also stands for enthusiasm. If you do not enjoy what you
do, you will have a bigger chance of failing. On the other hand,
if you have passion for your business, you will do anything and
everything to make it successful. As Albert Schweitzer (German
medical missionary, theologian, musician, and philosopher) so
aptly put it: "Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is
the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be
successful."
Do you wake up each morning and find yourself enthusiastic to
work for your business? Do you see each experience as an
opportunity for learning?
*S - Sweat. Be prepared to work really, really hard.
There is really truth in the saying, "Success is sweet, but its
secret is sweat."
You cannot expect to succeed in your home business and in your
life if you refuse to lift a finger. No successful person has
reached his stature by lazing around. Even the genius Thomas
Alva Edison had to go through thousands (yes, thousands!) of
trial-and-error experiments before he succeeded in inventing the
electric light bulb.
Furthermore, you should practice self-discipline especially
because you are practically your own boss and you hold your time
in your hands. Make sure you get things done as quickly and
efficiently as possible and not resort to procrastination and
cramming.
"S" can also stand for sharing. You do not achieve success on
your own. You need the help of other people as much as they also
need yours. Socialize with people who can motivate you to move
even closer to success. Share with them whatever useful tips you
can. Remember that just as you have given, so shall it be given
to you.
Are you taking enough action and, together with other people,
diligently moving towards your destination?
*S - Secret. Make your own secret!
This is the ultimate challenge in your quest to achieve success
in your life and in your home business. Be able to formulate
your own "success secret" and, in time, reveal it to others who
also wish to find true success in life!
Take action and move towards success. Make the most out of your
self worth, unique talents, creativity, and education. With
enthusiasm, make a commitment to yourself as well as to other
people. Then work really hard, learn from your experiences,
devise a "success secret," and share this with others. Then you
will see that the secret of success actually lies inside you!
