You, Can Succeed In Life, How?

Written by Sivuyile Tshalana.

It all boils down to how hungry you are when it comes to life itself. It is good to have goals, visions and ambitions in life in order to contribute to your success. Actions play a vital role when it comes to success. You can have a great plan on paper or in your mind on how you going to reach your dreams, but if you not doing anything about it on a daily basis then it will just remain a plan on paper or a dream in your head. No-one is born to be unsuccessful in life. Whether you believe it or not, it is what it is. We all meant to succeed in this lifetime.

‘Practice makes permanent’, if we all work on our dreams everyday. Put in the work, despite the negativity one gets when we share our dreams with others. I do not see any reason why people should not be successful. People need to accept that there is no smooth road to success, there is a lot of humps, roadblocks and traffic on the road to success. ‘Patience is a virtue’, which basically means waiting for something without getting angry is a valuable quality in a person's life and with such a mindset you cannot go wrong. Always remember that ‘easy come easy go’. If you did not work for something in life, but you get it for free, that thing has no sentimental value in your life and you will abuse it or misuse it. Since it is something you never worked for you have no idea about the work that was put into it for it to be a success. People need to visualize success in their body, mind and spirit. They need to be in it to win it at all costs, because it would not come easy. It is within your abilities to succeed, it is not far fetched because if you look within yourself you can achieve it. You can actually use that as a stepping stone to success. Do not be afraid to fail in life. Remember ‘it does not matter how many times you fall, but what matters is how often you get up’. Your downfall can also lead to your come up, hence it is just a matter of how you look at each challenge on your way to success.

Do not be afraid of trying out new things in life. Not everything is a rocket science, so ask if you do not have the answers. Hence do not let people tell you otherwise about success. Procrastination is the thief of time and is a major threat to success. In order to succeed you must value time and use it properly each day, because we all have twenty-four hours in a day to do something that contributes to our goals and future. But we usually spend those hours doing unproductive things, lazing around, complaining and gossiping about people. All of this is not the building blocks to success, it is just a waste of time and it should be a phase in people's lives that should not last long. They should quickly get over it, and focus on their lives and how can they better it. People must identify their strengths and weaknesses, so that they can fix it. You cannot fix something if you do not know the problem. Hanniffa Patterson says ten words that highly describe successful. They are being positive, perseverance, care (about people), generous, integrity, self-forgiving, excuse-free, confident, building relationships and focus.

We all need to ask ourselves what are we doing in this life in order to be successful. We can all succeed, but not at the same time and you can never judge or measure your success by other people's success. You can look at them as motivation and learn from them. Get up and start doing something towards your future it is never too late. Keep your circle small and full of people who share the same goals as you. Go out there, chase your dreams and do not be afraid some people might not get your dreams at first but sooner or later they will keep up.
