Jim Rohn, legendary business philosopher, says that “success is not to be chased, it is to be attracted to the person you become.” Depending on who you are, Success could have a totally different meaning. What is success? According to Earl Nightingale, a personal development guru, “Success is the progressive realization of a worthy ideal.” Having a checklist or formula in place will help make sure you are heading in the right direction. Here is the checklist:
GOALS. Setting realistic goals, working towards them, will bring you satisfaction in your life. Knowing where you are going and taking steps to get there can propel you toward greatness and growth.
ATTITUDE. You must have the right attitude to achieve anything in life. Our attitude determines how others relate to us. One of the hardest things for human beings to do is control their attitude. Making the decision to have the right attitude will allow success and happiness to flow into your life.
TO THINK. Think deliberately and on purpose. Don’t allow your thoughts to focus on negativity, but leave them open for optimism and positive reinforcement. Think for yourself, develop your own philosophy and how you want to lead your life. That is success.
TRUTH. Be sincere and honest, not only with yourself, but with others as well. Be aware of what you must do to change and have a better life. Look in the mirror and claim your happiness. The truth cannot be denied and the truth will set you free.
Check it out in these areas and let them take you to the place of happiness and success. Take control of your goals, your attitude, your thoughts and the truth and you will become the person who attracts the success you want.
