WHAT IT TAKES TO BE SUCCESSFUL

5 Key Actions You Can Start on TODAY!


Everyone wants to be successful in whatever they do. I don't know of anyone who starts their day by saying, "How can I fail today?" 
 
Unfortunately far too many start the day without asking, "How can I be successful today?" Rather they get up, go through the motions, and in many cases, let the day's events take control of them...and they do it all over again the very next day - avoiding success! Talk about being in a rut! Does the term victim mean anything to you? 
 
Imagine what it would be like if these same "victims" could be the masters of their day - you know: be successful? Wanting and hoping to be successful isn't enough. To be a success requires certain actions. Here are 5 that I think are very important. Why? Because they worked for me! 
 
1. Successful people see problems as opportunities in disguise. They face them with a smile, focus, and grit.
 
2. Successful people just don't willingly confront problems, they solve them. And not always by themselves, because they are not afraid to ask for help from others when needed. One more thing: not only do they solve their own problems, but they also see it as their role to help others solve their problems. 
 
3. Successful people see, understand, and evaluate risk. They accept that "risk" comes with the territory. They manage risk so that it doesn't turn into fear. They also do not let risk deter them from doing what they know is the right thing to do. They understand that "playing it safe" will derail them.
 
4. Successful people are full-time "learners". They know that learning and enhancing their skills are the factors that will give them a permanent competitive edge over others and the many challenges (problems) they deal with. They learn from anything, including mistakes. In fact, they see mistakes as offering the best opportunities to learn. If they lead a team, they place the development of their team as one of their top priorities. They know that trained teams are motivated and become great teams - and great teams accomplish great things. 
 
5. Successful people are successful because they consistently deliver value in whatever they do for whomever they do it for. At the end of the day they know that personal success can only be measured by the value you deliver or contribute to others.

Wait a minute...I just realized that there is one more characteristic a successful person has: it's a sense of humor. They have fun and want to share it with others. Plus, they know how to laugh at themselves.
