How to be incredibly successful - today

There is only one way that I know to be successful.

To be so absorbed in your niche that that is all you can think about day and night and will do anything to make it work.

Every day you work on your business, tirelessly. You don't care whether it works or not because it brings you the greatest joy.

If you can manage this for one year you will look back on that year and wonder why you didn't do this sooner.

Then you might ask what about having a life?

Sometimes you have to be prepared to put things on the back burner or you involve all your friends and family in your venture.

The more people you involve in your venture the easier it becomes.

When you are really passionate about your business others will too. It becomes contagious. You know why?

Why do you think people love successful people? It's because they give us hope for a better future, especially when you hear someone who started in the same circumstances as you and they 'made it'.

You either do this or you work for someone else.

With your current activity on your business would you even pay yourself?

Then it's time to notch it up and take your destiny by both hands and start steering your ship.

It's not hard to be successful but it does take work. I talk from experience.

Once everything is flowing your way then you can slack off - you can't slack off when you don't have runs on the board.

Always be honest with yourself about your goals. Start small and see how you go.

I am not a fan about taking 'massive action' that only works once you know where you are going. It's like saying you'll run a marathon when you can't even run around the block.

Massive action needs informed and well thought out strategies otherwise it will lead nowhere. A bit like if you want to run a marathon and thinking that if you drink enough protein drinks you'll make it - massive action in the wrong direction is a time waster.

I seem to be on a rant today, I hope for some of you it will give you renewed vigour and get you focussed. Remember to earn a living you have to go to work every day so why wouldn't you work every day on your business?

Enjoy your weekend but make it count.

A lot of sensible food for thought here. Not sure I'd deserve being paid just yet, but working on it! Many thanks, Sue :)

Thanks, Sue, you'll get there.

No rant on the horizon there young Michael, just a whole lot of very good sense thank you for the winding up the motivation machine for us.
It does take a time to get a business up to full speed and that is where half the fun is. great read my friend.

Thank you, Alexander, how are things with you? You live in the lap of the Gods. :)

I like this point-

Thanks, Jimmy.

Hi Michael. Yes, it is better to crawl down the right path, than to sprint down the wrong one.

Yep, sometimes I've been led down the garden path, lol !

Nice rant... Carry on!

This has motivated me to work harder even more; thanks!

Good to know it's the only way to get ahead, Krystle, thank you.

Growing a business is like anything else. Hard at first but pays off long term!
