Wanting Success

I'm sure that you want to have a happy and successful life. How much do you want it? Do you want it enough to just keep saying you want it or are you actually taking action to have the life you want? Please know that it is possible for you to have the life of your dreams. It's all up to you! So, if you really, really want it, you must quickly change that wanting to determination, discipline and action!

 There is nothing wrong with wanting something. However, please be careful not to get hung up on the wanting. I hear people on a daily basis saying what they want. "I want a new job", "I want a car", "I want a lot of money", "I want to get married, etc. What I have learned is that constantly saying that you want something only keeps you in the state of wanting. The same holds true for needing. It only affirms the fact that you don't have whatever it is you're seeking.  Also, what usually goes along with the wanting and needing are the reasons why you can not have whatever it is you desire. Your determination to succeed, the discipline you have and your consistant actions will get you through any dark clouds of obstacles, and keep you focused on your dreams.

Please pay attention to your language when on the path to the life of your dreams. Just making a little change in a statement can make a world of difference. For example, saying "I want a new job" is very different from saying "I'm determine to have a new job", "I'm getting a new job." or I will make 5 calls everyday towards getting my new job." The latter statements bring a whole new energy to the table and you even feel better about your approach to getting a new job.

"As soon as you stop wanting something, you get it." -- Andy Warhol

"Everybody will get their wants, when they heartily want." -- Santosh Kalwar

"Everything you want is out there waiting for you to ask. Everything you want also wants you. But you have to take action to get it." -- Jack Canfield

Build a Solid Foundation!

I hope you are progressing steadily in pursuit of your dreams and goals. I've been busy making the foundation firm and strong for my intended successful life. There is a time for everything and a season for every change under the sun. Creating the ultimate successful life for yourself and your family takes time. In order to have the success you aspire to, please realize that there is a process involved and enjoy the process!

There are some who get caught up with trying to figure out how something is going to happen and when. Please do not be so concerned with how and when. Sure, there are times when you may want to know how or when something will happen. However, you must not get stuck there. The how and the when will naturally manifest. When striving towards the life of your dreams it's important to stay focused on your goal and keep taking action.

Once you build a solid foundation, you will find that nothing will sway you or take you off track when problems come up.  There is a lot of work that goes into creating a successful life. The secret is that, the work will not seem like work if you are passionate about what it is you're doing. Realize that the work you're putting into building your foundation may not always be apparent to others. Most of the time we are encouraged and in awe of someone's success even though we're not aware of their journey to the success. Also, please remember that you already have the potential inside for success. That potential is your basic foundation. In order to build a solid foundation of success you must have determination, strong faith and perseverance.

"It is not the beauty of a building you should look at; its the construction of the foundation that will stand the test of time." -- David Allan Coe
