Success is a combination of ambition, drive, skills, dedication with a smattering of “luck” thrown in. Some of us are “luckier” than others and the luck seems to be fickle about when it will show up. So, since you can’t count on luck, you have to develop and foster the other skills to succeed in anything you do.
Becoming successful and remaining successful require that you develop exceptional skills, a drive to overachieve and a dedication or intensity in your performance. To develop and hone these skills, you should practice them all the time.
Start at home
If you want to be a success at work or in anything you do, you need to start at home and make changes to every aspect of your life. Your initial change should be to change your attitude and to start believing that you deserve success and will achieve it.
Take your new found confidence and start organizing your life so that you have sufficient time to dedicate yourself to becoming a success. If you are disorganized and somewhat lazy at home, you will have to change before you will achieve any results. Success and confidence are more of an attitude than anything else.
So, when you wake up this weekend, don’t leave your stained undershirt on and forget to shave. Don’t just lie around the house and watch sports all day. Approach the day as another opportunity for you to succeed in your endeavors. Jump in the shower, shave, and put on some decent clothes. Let the feeling of success permeate your life.
Dedicate yourself to achieving a successful home life and you are well on your way toward being successful in your job and in your life. By starting at home, you start with a more enthusiastic and cooperative audience who will help you achieve your success. You can then carry that successful attitude into a job, into an interview or anywhere else you may need.
All in all, you need to organize your life at home, change your attitude to one of success and bounty, carry this successful and bountiful attitude with you into every aspect of your life and then just sit back and reap the rewards. You will be amazed at the successes you will have.
