Title: Things To Do To Have An Accomplished Year This 2018
The journey towards success is
wrought with enough challenges and obstacles as it is already; anyone who has
ever managed to accomplish anything great would be wise in telling you that
they had to ignore countless internal and external factors to get to where they
are today that would have otherwise jeopardized their efforts or been
detrimental to their overall success had they chosen to direct their attention
towards them.
One of the things you will
discover on your own journey towards making anything happen is just how
extremely easy it is to lose focus and get derailed if you take your eyes
off your pursuits or give audience to negative things or people.
In order for you to make
your way to the finish line as far as your goals and dreams are
concerned, you must be prepared to do the following:
1. Stop comparing yourself to others
One of the most detrimental
things you can ever do that would jeopardize your chances for success in
anything, is to compare yourself with others.
In order for you to accomplish your
goals and dreams, you will need to take your eyes and focus off others, direct
all your attention towards your pursuits and embrace the fact that we are all
on separate journeys — leading to different destinations.
We all have different strengths
and limitations, gifts and talents, skills and abilities that enable us to do
what we were born and have been called to do in life.
Don’t waste time comparing
yourself with others, being envious of or attempting to keep up with those
around you that are living the life you aspire to live someday as you don’t
know what sacrifices they had to make to get to where they are or what means
some of them used to attain their success.
Stick to your lane and focus on
the things you need to focus on to move your own life in the direction you want
it to go.
2. Don’t focus on what your competition is doing
You shouldn’t waste time
worrying about what your competition is doing or trying to gauge your progress
against theirs’ but should instead direct your focus towards your own vision,
and become your own competition by setting bigger goals and benchmarks for yourself
each time you check one off your list.
Although we live in a
dog-eat-dog world where most people feel the need to protect their “turf” or
believe that they have to step on others in order to get ahead, truly
successful people understand that the universe is limitless and that there is
enough for everyone.
They also don’t concern
themselves much with what their competitors are doing but instead focus on the
things they can do to set themselves apart.
3. Be a doer, not a talker
Actions definitely speak louder
than words; we need to learn how to DO more and SPEAK less.
If we want people to take us
and our goals and dreams seriously, we have to demonstrate through our actions
what we’re all about rather than explain with mere words as talking about our
aspirations benefits us in absolutely no way if we can’t translate our words
into action and often results in inertia.
4. Let results speak for themselves
People recognize quality
products, service or work when they encounter them or see it.
If you want to be successful in
you endeavors, you have to demonstrate to others what you can do for
them and the kind of value you can add to their lives via the results they can
expect to receive based on your services, products and work as opposed to just
merely trying to convince them through your words.
5. Don’t over-share your aspirations
If there’s one thing you will
most likely discover rather early on in your journey towards success is that
not everyone will support you or be on board with you as far as your goals and
dreams are concerned.
Reasons for their lack of
support might include them not understanding your vision or believing that you
have what it takes to bring it to pass.
You will really need to
exercise your discretion to determine who to share your aspirations with and
who to keep in the dark to avoid opening yourself up to other people’s negative
influence and limiting beliefs.
6. Pay attention to what and who you listen to
The things and people we listen
to on a regular basis directly and indirectly influence how we perceive
ourselves as well as some of our choices and actions.
We need to pay particular
attention to our inner dialogue. The things we say about ourselves and how we
talk to ourselves as it greatly impacts how we view ourselves and in turn
influences our ability or disability to make things happen.
We also need to be careful who
we allow into our lives and should choose to only surround ourselves with
people who speak positively about us, celebrate us and empower us with their
words and support because we often become like those with whom we closely
associate, open ourselves up to their influence and at times, unknowingly begin
to view ourselves through their eyes.
7. Don’t indulge naysayers, critics or detractors
You better believe you will
encounter plenty of them when you attempt to do something significant with your
life.
In fact, you should be worried
if you don’t as that most likely means that you aren’t making as big of an
impact as you would like.
Plug your ears and refuse to
give audience to people that try to undermine you and your abilities, discredit
you or dissuade you from following your goals and dreams because of their own
limiting beliefs or past failures.
The journey towards making
things happen can at times be lonely.
Don’t allow anyone or anything
to distract you and cause you give up on your goals and dreams.
Keep your eyes closed, your
lips zipped and ears plugged as you focus on making your way to the finish
line.
