There may be times where you feel like nothing’s working. Success is for other people, not for you.
The first challenge is knowing what you want. If you don’t know your destination, how will you get there? Setting goals is the first thing you must do.
Seeing success can be delusional. It looks as if the other person has been there all of their life, or it took them no time at all to get there.
The part that you don’t see is where the magic lies.
Once you know where you’re going, you must figure out how to get there. The task may seem overwhelming, but it can be done, if you take it step by step.
The second challenge is forming habits and daily rituals. There has to be some sort of rhythm or pattern in place, in order to make progress.
People who set standards for themselves have a way that they do certain things, everyday. To be productive, there has to be habits in place to accommodate improvement.
The third challenge is taking action and moving forward. It’s not as easy as it sounds, considering the constant distractions we deal with on a daily basis. Even past that, starting is the hardest part of any journey, but it definitely can be done.
Not knowing what to do or where to start is a process in itself. When you feel lost, what do you do?
All of these challenges are what contribute to your potential success. Making the decision to follow through with the process is up to you.
Remove Your Limiting Beliefs
Let’s get this out of the way – before you begin anything in life, you must remove your limiting beliefs.
This can be tricky, because when you think you’ve removed them, they come back. It’s going to be a constant battle in your mind.
A strong foundation of discipline, focus and consistency will help along the way, but it won’t help unless you use them.
As you’re reading this now, your mind may be fighting against you, because you are about to do something it’s not used to – something uncomfortable. You’re having new ideas and you’re thinking new thoughts. It’s easy to just lay back and float down the river, but that’s not the path to success.
Going against the current is the path. Your mind is the current and you have to paddle you boat past those false beliefs, no matter how hard it is. Start believing you can, you deserve it, and it’s possible. Whatever the negative part of your mind is saying, believe the opposite.
If you want to stay comfortable and want to do the easy things, then this isn’t for you. It’s for those who are willing to step up to the challenge and advance towards a more productive and fulfilling life.
Living in fear can hold you back from the most amazing things that are waiting for you. It leads to regret – there is nothing more mentally devastating, than living with regret.
There are no hacks involved and no shortcuts. This is the work that has to be done, prior to your success.
Go ahead – turn on your light.
