Success is something in my opinion something that defines our lives. We all want to be able to share with others that we’ve been successful. We love hearing stories about kids who become Millionaires at 17 or someone who wins the lottery. That just strengthens the hope that this kind of success can happen to us. But, is making a lot of money really your definition of success? I’ve outline a few thing that I believe can help you in your quest to find the keys to success.
There is “always” an opportunity
You like me believe that there is always a way to success, we just have to find it. If we don’t have it, we aren’t doing something right. Consider the other day, I was running and I really had to go to the bathroom. I look everywhere for a place to go to bathroom. I told myself, ok just one more run around the park and then I’ll leave and look for a bathroom. By running the opposite way, I was able to find a bathroom that I hadn’t seen by running in my original direction. It was doing something that led me to the bathroom. So maybe this isn’t the best example, but I apply this to my quest to find a job. Maybe the keywords I am tying in the job search engines are wrong. Maybe I shouldn’t even be using the search engine at all, but something else? By changing directions (like when I was running) I discover something new and possible finally see what it was I was missing all along.
Success isn’t instant gratification
We need to struggle for things we want. Its by working hard and not giving up that we can enjoy that moment when we find the job of our dreams or finally create that successful business. Even if things aren’t going well, we need to keep holding out. If we work hard enough, things will work out. Consider my blog “ClickforNick dot Com”. For the first three months, I had barely any traffic. I didn’t give up. I just worked harder and wrote more and more posts to my blog. Then one day my traffic picked up, I went from making less than one dollar a day to ten dollars a day. What if I had given up?
The American Dream – Anyone can get rich
I would like to believe that anyone can get rich, richer than they could imagine, but its sadly not the case. There will always be rich and poor, but even if we happen to be poor, I do believe it is possible to lead a successful life. Is it a fast car that really makes our lives better. Perhaps better is the relationships we have in our lives. Instead of criticizing someone for being poor, why don’t we honor them for whatever it is they do (hopefully not drugs). Maybe they paint and make wonderful paintings that don’t sell. Not everyone needs money to be happy. Money does not equal happiness.
