It all begins with you.
BY PHILL FELTHAM
You need to have a good job, a hot woman with lots of money to truly be a success in life. You need to have Brad Pitt’s money with picture-perfect six-pack to be respected by yourself and your peers. Welcome to society’s generalized view on success—or the illusion. However, true success doesn’t come from deep pockets or hot chicks, but a culmination of completed championships that comes from every aspect of your life—career, money, family, spiritual and personal. Success isn’t a stereotype—it’s personal. Your success isn’t better than anyone else’s. You make more money or have a better job than John Doe who’s a family man with three kids. John could care less about your success as much as you could care less about his kids. Be the leader of your own success. Measure your own without comparison. You’ve made gains: in the gym, on the road and in the career. You’re proud of your achievements—as you should be, but so has John who works a comfortable living providing for his family. He’s a success in his own eyes.
If you’re not happy with your success, then it’s time to seize the day. The true secret of success is that it’s never too late to start. When you’ve made the decision to achieve your goals, you’ve achieved your first step to success. The first action to achieving your goals is your second success. Eventually, goal achieving will become easier as you climb over each mountain of excuses.
For those who’ve achieved so much success; it’s a given that you’ll continue to climb ti the top of higher mountains throughout your entire life, overcoming each stumbling block that’s put in front of you. You might slow down and you might get knocked off track, but you’ll be right back to where you started after your little detour. But here’s a challenge for you: try sharing your success with others without becoming a self-serving braggart. Mentor those who can truly benefit from your talents. Maybe John wants to travel to his first country. You’ve been to ten countries so be the expert—get him onto the plane and help him with his first travel experience. You’ll experience a greater feeling than accomplishing your own goals by helping change the life of another. And by doing that, you’re cementing your legacy. iT!
