So you want to be a success ?

Hello everyone - I hope all of you have had a nice week so far despite the cold weather! Today I wanted to blog about becoming successful - Many people have a distorted idea of what being a success means, in that generally people associate it with money and or fame. After hearing and reading about too many who feel that way, I decided to look up the word "Success" in the dictionary. The definition of success is as follows; The accomplishment of an aim or purpose. (now I probably could stop writing the rest of this entry in that some of you are astonished by such a definition). Being successful, which any powerful person will tell you, is about choosing a goal and working each and every day towards that goal. Many people will argue and say, " a successful person is one whom is rich or has reached a high level of status and or fame based on a idea he or she came up with." As this may be true in the end - The money comes after you become successful. The amount you earn is in direct proportion to how much service you are providing for others. These people that you see all over t.v. have worked not harder than their peers but smarter to get to where they want to be. The question you have to ask yourself is, "how badly do I want it." If you want to be success take a good look at yourself in the mirror and really dig deep towards what's important to you. Put money aside and understand that you will make more money than you can imagine if you put your heart and soul into the line of work you want to do - Create a vision for yourself, and stay true to that vision.

I listen to a lot of motivational audiobooks which repeatedly state that the airplane, the computer, the lightbulb, the telephone, etc etc. were once not even imaginable. These ideas were ridiculed by people and no one in a million years thought these things would come into fruition except one person, the creator. Be a creator, imagine something and put your heart and soul into it. If you believe it, you surely will acheive it.

Another note on being a success, write your ideas down, and jot other ideas around them(this will stir the creativity around). Eat healthy, get adequate sleep, and treat your body well. All are essential for you to be fully creative and alert to the beauty of the world around us. Remember you are in the drivers seat - Think of it this way your soul or that being looking out of your eyelids is the driver and your body is simple the vehicle. It is your job to keep your vehicle in good shape and it is also your job to get your vehicle to the correct destination - There is place where we all belong, maybe there are a few places, only You know where that is.
