Your dream life is within your reach if you know how to get down to business.
Don't be afraid of mistakes and failures
Many people think that if they are unlucky in something, it means that they are generally unsuccessful. When self-esteem is directly related to work, any mistake is taken as evidence of incompetence. But it is precisely this kind of thinking that prevents one from breaking out of the ordinary. If you are not ready to fail, you will not be able to learn from your mistakes and learn something new. And if you don't study, you will never develop and grow.
If you want to succeed faster, you must double your failure rate. Success lies on the other side of failure.
Thomas Watson first president of IBM
Failure teaches humility. They develop character, help you laugh at your mistakes and not take things too seriously.
Learn constantly
Most people prefer to spend their free time on entertainment, rather than study something and engage in self-development. This is not surprising, because it is difficult to study. Seeking help, getting better at what you do, constantly failing is all not fun.
Repetition is boring and tedious, which is why so few people master something perfectly. It won't be easy to start learning something, but remember:
- Every day that you take your time to read, millions of people do not pick up a book.
- Every morning, when you got up early to work on something and create something, others continued to sleep.
- Every day as you move forward, millions of people give up.
Believe You Can Get What You Want
Deep down, most people don't think they have the qualities they need to succeed. And it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy: if you don't believe in yourself, you won't succeed.
No one is ready to become rich until they believe that they can get rich.
Napoleon Hill author of Think and Grow Rich
When you tune your brain on what you want to achieve, it will begin to act in that direction.
Strive for new experiences and self-development, not money and high positions
People are most often unhappy because they do not understand what is valuable in life. Anyone can now be an "expert" or a "director." If you only pursue money and titles, in the end you will come to desolation and longing. Learning through experience and personal development should be the main goals.
Success, like happiness, cannot be achieved; it must be born by itself.
Viktor Frankl Austrian psychiatrist, psychologist and neurologist
Most people spend their lives chasing the wrong things: money, sex, security, recognition. But all this will not give you what you are striving for. So don't get hung up on high positions and impressing others. Focus on becoming the kind of person you can be proud of.
Envy others less, work more on yourself
Every minute spent in envy is wasted. If you constantly look back at others, you will cease to be yourself. When views and actions diverge, you feel unhappy. Therefore, it is better not to dwell on the success of others, but to work on yourself.
Learn, experiment, make mistakes, figure out what works and what doesn't. Gradually, you will build up the pace and get closer to your goal.
- Choose success over mediocrity.
- Choose learning over entertainment.
- Choose self-development over envy.
- Choose what you want, not what others want.
