Living by the 4 simple necessities, while not easy, will
absolutely guarantee success in whatever your pursuit.
Probably nothing reinforces a message better than a song
with stirring lyrics and sung to perfection.
I say that because it would seem music is truly a universal
language. It moves people from all walks
of life throughout the world in very similar ways. If humans can’t unite in any other way, they
seem to be able to through music.
You might think I’m totally off topic but trust me! I couldn’t be more on point. I guess I should explain myself! ☺
Far too many people struggle with the whole concept of
succeeding in life. There are lots of
reasons why people struggle and the crux of the problem is not understanding
what success really means for them. It
is some vague thing out there in life and people hope it will happen to them.
No wonder people don’t succeed! Success is something to be earned…not
something to be received without having put forth significant effort. It doesn’t come to you! You must go to it!
Bottom-line—If you can’t dream it; plan it; believe it; and
act on it, then you can’t have it!
Let’s dig into those 4 simple necessities to your
success. You can achieve them, you know!
FIRST NECESSITY
If you are to make success a reality in your life, the first
necessity is a dream. You must have a
vision of something bigger than you are right now…that, my friend, is exactly
what a dream is.
A meaningful and powerful dream is created from the depths
of your soul because it is stirred by your passion. I’ve said it before. A dream without passion is just a wish.
I encourage you to listen to the lyrics of this song sung by Celine Dion to help you find your passion.
Now, you know why I began this post mentioning the power of
music.
SECOND NECESSITY
Leverage your passion by building a plan to give it
direction. Passion without a defined
path to its purpose is just random emotion.
Your objective in building a plan to reach your dream is to
direct your passion and sustain your move forward. I give you specific steps you can take to
build an effective plan and realize your dream in my book, Life’s Ride or Fall…You Make the Call.
However, I don’t want to be totally self-serving. My objective is not to sell my book. It’s to help you build a plan to lead you to
your dream. Here’s another resource that will help you in that regard, as well.
THIRD NECESSITY
Neither of the first two necessities to success will be
worth your time if you don’t have this third one.
On the other hand, I am convinced if you do a great job with
the first and second necessity you will be able to truly believe in your
dream. Believing in yourself and your
dream is, therefore, the third necessity to achieving success.
Think about it…you know you have had experiences in your
life where the outcome wasn’t what you thought you wanted. My bet is in almost every one of those
instances you didn’t really believe you deserved the outcome or in the real
value to you in having the desired outcome.
Believing in something is when you feel sure of having it
even before you do!
FOURTH NECESSITY
By now, you should have a dream, a plan for realizing it,
and you believe you can achieve it.
Congratulations!
Oh…I forgot! No dream
comes true by only thinking about it. No
plan ever works by only building it. No
belief is ever real because you think it.
Your actions define your outcomes. Don’t believe it? Take a look at some these thoughts.
Have a dream; plan for achieving it; believe in it; and act
on it…4 simple necessities before success is possible.
What are you going to do to make those
things you wish for dreams that have come true?
