SUCCESS
• SUCCESS MEANS HELPING OTHERS
Success is knowing God and what He wants for you; Becoming as good as you can be and doing things that helps others.
• SUCCESS IS NOT AN ACCIDENT, IT’S NOT FATE OR FATE
It’s predetermined. Success is worthwhile. Nothing is successful that does not contribute in a positive way to help people. Success is continual. It’s not an event but a journey, an ongoing process. It’s not an accolade that we receive in a race won or job well done. Success is the positive result of steady forward movement.
• SELF IMAGE, HOW I SEE MYSELF
It is impossible to perform consistently in a manner inconsistent with the way we see ourselves. In other words, we usually act in direct response to our self-image. Nothing is more difficult to accomplish than changing outward actions without changing inward feelings. One of the best ways to improve those inward feelings is to put some ‘success’ under your belt.
• SUCCESS IS AN EVENT
If you have this mindset, you are constantly looking for that milestone event, a powerful conference, a key decision, an important meeting, the attainment of a specific title, that is going to be the turning point in your quest for success. Unfortunately, success doesn’t hinge on any one event or place; it’s a growth process, a journey.
• SUCCESS EQUALS HARD WORK
This is the theory that says’ ‘The early bird gets the worm, and if you want to be successful, all you have to do is work your tail off from sun up to sun down’. This idea looks good on papers, but it doesn’t always pan out in real life. I firmly believe in the virtue of hard work, but I also know lots of every hard workers who haven’t been very successful.
• SUCCESS IS IN THE FUTURE
It’s one thing to be optimistic about the future. But it’s another thing entirely to think that, if you’re patient, you’re just going to happen upon success someday. You’re more likely to find a pot of gold on your driveway tomorrow morning than you are to find success, ‘Somewhere Over the Rainbow’.
• OPPORTUNITY EQUALS SUCCESS
People who hold this common misconception think, ‘If I could just get one big break, then I’d be on my road to success’! They’re waiting for the right opportunity to fall into their laps, the big break that will change their lives forever.
• SUCCESS IS NOT AN EVENT
It’s an ongoing process we engage in, time and time again. Aristotle says it in a profound way, “Anyone can succeed once or twice. And anyone can fail or lose a battle or two along the way. What we must focus on is the habit of excellence; practicing success repeatedly, day after day”.
• SUCCESS KEY TO LEADERSHIP
Success can be defined as the progressive realization of a predetermined goal. This definition tells us that the discipline to prioritize and the ability to work toward a stated goal are essential to a leader’s success. In fact, I believe they are the keys to leadership.
• SLUMPED SALLY- REKINDLING THE FLAME OF SUCCESS (1)
Before Sally can be an effective member of the team, she needs to get her attitude right. You don’t want her negative attitude and depression spreading to other people in your company. Separate her from others and couch her one-on-one until is she ready to work in a team as a team player.
• SLUMPED SALLY- REKINDLING THE FLAME OF SUCCESS (2)
Sally needs to make progress. The best way to raise her morale is to get a few wins under her belt. As her coach, put her in a position to win. Encourage her strengths. Arrange her workload so she has an opportunity to succeed.
• SLUMPED SALLY – REKINDLING THE FLAME OF SUCCESS (3)
Put Sally in a position where she knows the importance of he role. And make sure she majors on the major things. Let her know that the project won’t get done without her. Sally needs to be in a vital area of the company in order to be stretched and motivated.
• SLUMPED SALLY – REKINDLING THE FLAME OF SUCCESS (4)
Encourage Sally. Build up her confidence. Commend her publicly and privately when she succeeds. Sally needs you to be her cheerleader as well as her coach.
• SUCCESS IS THE RESULT OF HARD WORK
Working hard means looking inside, seeing what’s there, and changing any problem thinking to right thinking. Success is not an accident. It’s something you work hard to achieve.
• BELIEVE OUR ABILITY
Those who believe in our ability do more than stimulate us. They create an atmosphere in which it becomes easier to succeed. When a leader does not believe in us, success is very difficult for us to achieve. It becomes nearly impossible.
• BUSYNESS IS NOT AN ACCURATE INDICATOR OF SUCCESS
Some people work like crazy and never accomplish anything. Past success is a key predictor of future success. What have I accomplished that I am proud of? Did those accomplishments include others? How does my experience relate to what I need today? Am I willing to put forth the effort again?
• THINKER VS. DOER
Someone once told me that the world has two kinds of people; thinkers and doers. They said, ‘the thinkers needs to do more and the doers need to think more’. I have always tried to do both, reflect and act. When I have combined the two, I have greatly reduced the odds of failure.
