It's For YOU!

In moments of quiet our mind wanders.
Eventually, it finds its way home.
We daydream, we plan, we think.
It is our dreams, our thoughts, that guide us to making plans.

Those DREAMS are the basis of our plans and they start and eventually they will lead us to the SucceSS we want.

We all want it.
We all think we deserve it.
But...Have we got the mindset to achieve it?

Success seems to be getting lousy press lately.  It's as if achieving something is a bad thing.  Society seems to prefer that we all stay at the same level and nobody should DARE to put their head up and stare at the goal and achieve a level of success in case it makes the others feel 'less successful'.

All together now: Aaaahhhh!

I feel so sorry for those people...........
Hold on, wait a moment. The hell I do.  Nor should you either.
We all have the chances to make our dreams come true thrown at us on a daily basis but we choose to either 'Accept' or 'Decline'.

I can't believe that in this day and age of nanny state, care-bear outlook, wrapped in cotton wool mentality we even have sports days where NO ONE WINS!  Kids get a medal for 'taking part' and not just for winning!  Try that in the Olympics!

When your mortgage is due go and sit with your bank manager and say:
'I can't pay this month because another company got the business and I earned nothing.  But, on the bright side, my company is as good as them' and see what reaction you get.
'OK, no problem, We'll wait...let's hope you get lucky next month'
(For your information, no, you will not get THAT response.)

If you want to be successful then BE successful, answer when your dream or success calls and go all out to win and be proud that you did.
BE THE BENCHMARK THAT OTHER COMPANIES
ARE MEASURED AGAINST!

Are you geared for success?  Is your mindset tuned up and raring to go?

Let's check....

Let's look at the word SUCCESS........
There are three S's in success.

1st.  SEE it.
You have to see yourself as successful.  If you can't see yourself successful not only will nobody else see you as successful, you will never be successful because......You don't believe you can be.

Have you ever said to yourself or someone else 'I can't imagine myself doing that even in my WILDEST dreams'?  Well, if you can't see yourself doing that in your wildest dreams, how you gonna see yourself doing it in reality?

2nd. SUSTAIN it.
Whether you are planning, dreaming , scheming or even taking action...SUSTAIN YOUR MOMENTUM.
It's all very well being successful but you have to keep doing what you do at the optimum level to maintain your success.  You have to keep going.

We all get roadblocks in life.  Problems, challenges, issues, crises.....but you have to keep going.
What do you do when you come up to a roadblock?  You have three options...Go around it, go over it or go thru it!  DON'T TURN BACK!  Navigate that roadblock in one of those three ways.  Find a way, find another way, MAKE a way.

Here is the most important S of all.  It is the one that determines whether or not you will succeed and is normally the one most people fear...

3rd. START it!
Planning is great.  It's not rigid, it's a framework.  A guide.  If you try and stick to a rigid plan you will be very surprised when life intervenes or other people alter the plan indirectly.  Planning is a great timewaster as well as a great resource.  Some people spend so much time planning they never ever start! When we take too much time planning every possibility we miss opportunity.  That is the key...START.  You have to do SOMETHING.  You MUST get the ball rolling.  Best thing to do, tell people what you are doing.  Writing it in your diary or schedule is great but we can choose to ignore those entries.  When you tell someone what you are going to do you really dont want to lose face by telling them later 'I didn't do it'.  Start it.  Start it today.  If you think you should have done something before now then now is the time to start.

The journey to SUCCESS can be VERY scary but there is something even MORE SCARY!!!!!....Regret! 

The only way to never regret is to See it, Sustain it but START it! Start it Now!
