What is Success?

Success is not based on how much money you have or what other people think you should be doing. Success is individualized. Success is what you make it. Success is making the right steps every day towards your goals. Success is staying focused and being determined.

You must appreciate where you are and be successful in that. Have enough faith to know that what you are doing today will lead you to reaching your long-term goals.

Reaching goals (no matter how small)= success

Steps to reach your goals:

1.      Figure out what it is you want to do. Be sure the goals you set for yourself are realistic and truly what you want to do. Choosing goals that you will be passionate about will keep you motivated. 

2.   Do the research. If you want to be a fashion designer, talk to a fashion designer and ask them how they got there. If you want to own a business, talk to a business owner. You can also read blogs and articles on the topic. Search YouTube. You are going to invest a lot of time in reaching your goals. So taking the time out to do research is not wasted time; it is you being sure you are making the right decision.

3.      Put in in front of your face. Create a list of your long-term goals along with the deliverables (main things you need to accomplish), steps, and a time frame for each of those deliverables. Hang a list of your deliverables up on a wall that you look at daily. This will force you to stare your goals in the face every day.

4.      Complete a step every day. This will help you get closer and closer to reaching your goals.

5.      Congratulate yourself! Give yourself a pat on the back after each step or deliverable has been accomplished. This will give you the push you need to keep going. Go out or do a little celebrating. This will decrease your level of stress and possibly give you a clear mind.

So briefly, what did we just say? Figure out what you want to do and set goals. Put these goals in your face so you can see them every day. Work towards your goals every day. Be sure you are making progress towards your long-term goals by completing steps often. Finally, congratulate yourself. 

In reaching these steps, you are being successful at reaching your goals which makes you successful. Don’t wait until you have reached your long-term goals to call yourself successful. As long as you are focused on reaching your goals and making progress, you are successful!

Don’t forget that nothing comes to those who don’t work for what they want. It doesn’t matter if you are 16 or 35 and you work at a shoe store or fast food restaurant. You better be the best damn shoe salesman or cook there is.
