Many people are constantly in pursuit to find the fastest way that leads to success. When you can ask a lot of people and they will only say one precise thing, that is, “success is realised either by chance or by choice.”.
Successful people don’t look for chance to be successful. They made they way onto it. They do not think of the chances or odds or getting the win but rather they always find ways to win. They create their methods, after following those who are proven by those came before them.
Success is not an overnight luck or an instant chance to be. Success is a life-long process of transformation and constant resolution. It’s a cycle of failure and not, it’s a rotation between ups and downs. Although, you may be broke for a while but the true measure of success is how you end up after a while.
A famous author says, ”whether you think you can or you cannot, you are right” and this is precisely correct. Success starts in the mind. If by merely thinking you admit to yourself that you cannot be, then that very moment you ceased to be for all things are created twice, initially in your mind, then finally on your hands.
You need to have an enormous desire for success to be able to have it. Your motives, your tones, your emotions, everything that’s totally in your being should be attuned to it. If your reasons are not that deep enough, then your will may never be strong enough to win for the gold. They should be a source of inspirations, and an infinite reasons why you should be successful.
Just like trees and the rest of livings things around us, “Either you grow or you die”. Your life, your decision, your choice. As Mr. Arnel Limpin says, “if you have reasons to live, then you shall not loose reasons to quit”.
Success is a wonderful thing to have. In fact, it may not be the best achievement of your life-long existence but i am certain it is the best of all you could have in life. Success in everything coincides with success in your inner being.
Again, success is not an overnight chance. It cannot be. No way. If its just temporary, then it is not success so to speak. Everybody wants success and you can take a hold on it in two ways. Either by chance. Or by choice.
Personally, i would prefer by chance but i am not as lucky as the winners of a million dollar lottery. I am not as good-looking as those hollywood stars or Pinoy matinees. I am not as muscular as those athletes in the olympics. But as long as my vision for my future is crystal clear, then i am certain i will be sooner or later as successful as they are. And i will WORK my way onto it. I will move my feet towards it not just merely look on it.
I have to sweat a lot. I am aware of it. There’s a lot of pain for my gain. They will always be challenges and obstacles along the way. But for as long i am determined, as long as i am breathing, i won’t give up the fight.
If know that if i want success, i have to learn about it. And I will learn SUCCESS, no matter how. No matter what.
As my mentor Jerome Villarba says,
“Read books. Attend seminars. Ask questions. Seek mentoring. Learning has to be intentional and not accidental.”
