Title: The Top 5 Things That Are Hindering Your Success
There's no gain saying the fact that everyone wants to be
rich. I am yet to meet a man or a woman for that matter who doesn't want to
have so much money that they do not know what to do with it.
As being rich is equated to being successful, so a lot of
people want to be successful. But that is just where it stops "wanting
to" "wishing" "dreaming" , only a few people are
willing to pay the price.
There is a price to success as there is a price to failure.
Here are my 5 top reasons why people are not accomplishing
their dreams.
1. A
Lack Of Motivation.
Success
comes from loving what you do.
In
the traditional educational system that has been in vogue for ages, people are
told to study hard, pass the prescribed tests and examinations, excel and then
come out and walk into a good paying job of their choice; though this is no
longer practicable but even for those who eventually get a job after school,
majority are working jobs that they hate because it has no bearing to what they
studied in College.
And
so in this context, there is no motivation to beat the records, no motivation
to excel at the job, life becomes a humdrum routine of going to work, being
unhappy for the 8 hours and then getting home to land right in front of the
television to catch some "fun" and distract oneself from the
realities on the ground.
Is
your current job your passion?
Highly
successful people, have at least 1 thing in common: they love what they do and
they do what they love.
Is
this the case for you?
If
the answer is no, you can start by identifying your passion.
This
is the best way to get motivated.
2. A
Lack Of Faith.
Faith
is a firm belief in yourself, God or others that you can do it.
The
Holy Bible describes faith as "the substance of things HOPED for, the
evidence of things NOT YET SEEN"
Even
though this is not a lecture on faith, but it is important to point out the
basic ingredients in that definition of faith as given above.
You
have faith for something you are hoping to get, no one exercises faith for what
they already possess and though you are waiting for it to manifest yet you are
walking and working in such a manner as to say that it is already here
(evidence of things not yet seen), you have not seen it but you are acting and
behaving and talking like it is already here.
This
is powerful
When
people lack faith in themselves, it is extremely difficult to succeed at life's
tasks
Build
up a strong vision of what you want to accomplish.
In
developing a vision, the law of attraction is going to work for you.
You
are going to attract people, opportunities and money that will allow you to
develop an unstoppable confidence.
3. The Fear Of Failure.
The
fear of failure doesn't exist. Neither does the fear of success.
Fear
stands for False Evidence Appearing Real.
Micheal
Jordan said himself that "Fear is an illusion".
It
is hard to overcome fears.
Fear
is inbuilt in us as nature's protective mechanism; so fear is meant to protect
us from harming ourselves, for example running into a moving car or train or
jumping out of an airborne aircraft - such fears are healthy fears; however
there is the unhealthy fear which we have cultivated from since we were kids -
the fear of failure or even of success as the case may be.
The
fear of failure simply paralyses us from taking actions to improve on out lot
in life. We fear what will become of us if we fail in the process, we fear what
will happen to our integrity, we fear what others will say of us and all that.
The
fear of failure is the product of a negative mindset and one simple way to
overcome the fear of failure is to suffuse our minds with positive thoughts by
reading inspirational stories and quotes of people that achieved their dreams.
Read
one every morning.
That
will give you strength and hope.
4. The Wrong Strategies.
4. The Wrong Strategies.
A
lot of people fail to achieve their goals and realize their dreams because they
are busy trying to 'reinvent the wheel" - that is a wrong strategy
All
systems in the world already have their wheels invented donkey years ago and if
any man goes to reinvent that wheel, he is only playing to the gallery, rather
what to do is to oil the bolts and nuts and make the wheel functional again.
When
you want to build a business, to achieve something really big, you need to have
mentors.
These
are persons who have already done what you are trying to do and have excelled.
You
can't allow yourself to lose time, money and energy.
Mentors
are people that will give you the right strategies; they will provide the right
information and will inspire you.
They
will coach you through the process.
Choose
correctly your experts, your models. Work with them and adopt the same thinking
patterns, the same strategies, the same beliefs.
If
he did it, you can do it too.
5. Limiting Beliefs.
Often
times we have limiting beliefs about what we want to achieve.
These
limiting beliefs most of the time come way back from our childhood, when we were
stopped from having what we considered then to be fun, sometimes we were even
punished for exercising our "rights", we were told what to do and
what not to do, we were reminded of the so many failures in the path we want to
walk, we were limited both physically and psychologically.
For
example, you can really want to achieve a goal but at the same time something
tells you: "It's not for you, you don't deserve that" or "You
can't do it, remember".
These
thoughts pollute our minds and darken our life.
A
quick way to stop these damaging thoughts is to use the power to say no!
First,
represent in your mind the "limiting belief" and say NO! to it.
Now,
represent in your mind what you want in its place and say a big YES!
You
will be amazed how your attitude suddenly changed about the old belief.
That
is the power of word and belief substitution.
Whatever
it is that you want to achieve, and your mind becomes a stumbling block, CHANGE
THAT MINDSET and dominate it and you would become that which you want to become
or achieve that which you want to achieve.
