10 Right Ways to be Successful


10 Right Ways to be Successful


Success doesn't come to you… you go to it.
~Marva Collins

Success will not fall into your lap, you have to exert effort and go after it. Here are the effective ways to get what you want in life and attain success:
 
1.      Dreams: What inspires you? You need a unique and original idea that you are passionate about. It is your goal.  Your ambition should be built on your strengths so that you can go after your dreams fervently. Write down what you want to achieve in life so that you can look at it often and be motivated. There is a direction in life when there is a dream to guide you. When life is meaningful, you feel good about yourself.   

Success is the good fortune that comes from aspiration, desperation, perspiration, and inspiration.
~Evan Esar

2.      Work smart: To work smart is to acquire knowledge and learn the essential skills. To be creative is to conceive ideas from the known to the unknown.   

Smarts and action are on the same side of the equation where the sum is success. 
~Garrett Hazel

3.      Work hard: Success is about making a daily effort over a long period of time. Be excited and enthusiastic about what you do and enjoy doing the daily tasks. The key is perseverance; be consistent and persistent.

Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out.
~Robert Collier

4.      Focus: Total commitment is mindful of what you do and avoids distractions. Be alert and seize the opportunity when you spot one and get a lucky break. When you are prepared you are lucky.


5.      Believe in yourself: Thoughts are powerful. It shapes your attitude and action. When you think you can, you will, if you think you can’t, you will not.  Read motivational quotes in the morning and think of positive words to develop and establish self-confidence. Avoid negative people whose outlook in life is gloom and doom.

6.      View failures as stepping stones to success: You are going to meet with obstacles and failures in life. Do not be discouraged, these are just lessons to be learnt and be wiser. If you have not failed, you have not tried.

           Success does not consist in never making blunders, but in never making the same one a second time.
           ~Josh Billings

7.      Organized:  Always plan ahead and be efficient. A daily to-do list is a right tool to manage your time effectively. Be proactive and do the most important thing first in the morning. Organize your life and do what is right at the right time.

8.      Lifelong learning: There is no way to be content with what you know because there will be new technology, new products, new ideas, the latest information, and new insights every day. Stay up-to-date to be ahead.

9.      Change: Change is constant.  Technology impacts and changes our life greatly. Be flexible and embrace change to be progressive.

Unless you try to do something beyond what you have already mastered, you will never grow.
~ Ronald E. Osborn

10.  Personal care: You will work with zest when you are fit and energetic. Exercise daily to stay calm and composed.  Meditate to get peace of mind and release stress.

Energy is the essence of life. Every day you decide how you're going to use it by knowing what you want and what it takes to reach that goal, and by maintaining focus.
~ Oprah Winfrey


Try to discover
The road to success
And you'll seek but never find,
But blaze your own path
And the road to success
Will trail right behind.
~Robert Brault
