Success - Do You Really Have the Power?
(8 steps to help you get there)
By Karen Cioffi
The question in the title has been asked for hundreds, probably thousands of years.
The simple truth of the matter is you have the power. You are in
control of whether you become successful or not. Most of it has to do
with your thought process.
Zig Ziglar said, “Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude.”
Henry Ford said, “Whether you think you can, or you think you can’t – you’re right.”
These two men were giants in the business world and they knew the power of positive
thinking.
So, it’s easy to see that
But, how do you change your thought process?
The Fix
To get on the right track, you have to stop making excuses and
playing the ‘woe is me’ card. Stop thinking and saying, “I can’t do it.”
It doesn’t matter what your circumstances are, you have the ability
to learn what you need to learn to do what you need to do to be
successful.
Maybe you want to be a working freelance writer who actually gets gigs and earns a good living.
Maybe you want to be an author of an award-winning book and make
money from that book, or use it to make money from opportunities that
arise from writing a great book.
Maybe you want to have a successful business with 5, 10, 100, or 1000 employees.
Whatever you want to do . . . whatever you REALLY want to do . . . is possible to do.
But, there is a second part to the success process.
German poet Johann Wolfgang von Goethe said, “Knowing is not enough; we must apply.
Willing is not enough; we must do.”
Ah ha!
Are lights blinking and bells chiming?
You can wake up every morning and say I’m going to make $500 today,
but if you don’t work toward that goal, you won’t make a penny.
It’s your thoughts in collaboration with your actions that will give you the ability to succeed.
