HOW CAN WE BE ACHIEVERS?

Many a times, we envy people who are famous achievers, but we never realize that their becoming famous have a couple of prerequisites, that is, a dream (idea) and hard work to chase the dream.   You ask anyone who have come out with flying colors in any examinations, in any national and international sports and games events, in any field for that matter, they will share the fact they had a dream or desire and they perspired to achieve it.

The people in this genre accumulate a fortune through the application of the same principles that are available to all of us. We envy them without ever thinking or studying their philosophy and appropriating it to our own use. We look at a successful person at the hour of his/her triumph and not when he/she was struggling.

Dream is the beginning of all successful achievements. There are lots of us who want money but we don’t know how to earn it. That is because we have not bothered to discover ourselves, our talents, abilities, skills which are lying dormant. Once you arouse them, experiment with them, play with them, you will know how to use them. Just as we build a check-dam to hold the natural flow of water, we put  blocks on our dreams:  They can be classified as:

1.     Making Excuses:  You look at any successful person and you will find that they will always look for possibilities and never find excuses not to chase their dreams.  They will never put blame on others for their failures. They will never justify their poor choices.

2.   Fearing Failure: They will be expecting failures on their way to success and hence shall not be disappointed when failure comes.  They are aware that failure is not the end of the road – it is one step on the road to success. Too many people run into a tiny bit of failure, and they think they’re done forever. They give up immediately, never realizing how close they were to achieving their goals.

3.   Beating Yourself Up:  Successful people don’t beat themselves up. They understand that taking their anger out on themselves only push their goals farther away. They still get upset, but they channel those emotions into constructive energy. They use that energy as jet fuel to reach their goals.

The truth about success is that you’re closer than you think. Sometimes all it takes is tearing down the floodgates, so you can let your dreams pour in. Never give up, but persevere and perspire. You shall be a high flier.
