What Success is about


I've been stressing out. So little time, so much to do. Maybe this article can help you too the way it helped me.

Conrad Hilton, the founder of the Hilton chain of hotels, said: “Success is made to order.”
He was right.

An achievement is a sum total of many things – talent, aptitude, knowledge and desire.

If you analyse each of your achievements, you will soon discover that it all started with the goal that you wanted to achieve.

Well-defined goals, tackled with competence and confidence through a proper plan of action, are the building
blocks of achievements. They are our escalators to tomorrow, a vehicle that takes you to success.

What are some of the important points to remember when you go about setting goals and planning for them?

1. BE ENTHUSIASTIC

The worst bankrupt is the person who has lost enthusiasm, lose everything but enthusiasm and you will come
through your trials and find success.

2. TAKE EFFECTIVE DECISIONS

Most people have no idea how much stress they can create through indecision.
If you are the kind of person who cannot decide between two courses of action, afraid that the course you choose might turn out to be a mistake, bear in mind that indecision is expensive and nearly always the worst mistake you can make.

Some decisions require a great deal of thought and plenty of information.
But once all the facts are available, the successful individual will reach a decision and stop thinking about the
various pros and cons, so that he can devote all his energy and effort to making the decision work.

3. AVOID PROCRASTINATION.

Procrastination is the greatest disease that afflicts mankind.
Successful people do not procrastinate, especially in matters they know are important to them.
As someone has rightly said,

“People don’t fail because they intend to fail.

They fail because they fail to do what they intent to do”.
