Everybody wants to be successful, whether in their work or business, personal life or hobbies. All human beings in their right mind desire good things for themselves and their family. And success is definitely a good thing.
Have you ever heard people complain: “How come he is more successful?”, “When will I finally get my breakthrough?”, “Why am I not as talented/creative/intelligent/lucky as …?” There is an answer to all these questions.
While everybody’s situation is different, and there could be millions of reason why people do not succeed, there is one thing that is common for all of us. People are lazy by their nature. Thomas A. Edison said: “We often miss opportunity because it’s dressed in overalls and looks like work.” Every person has once or twice or many times in their life experienced the moment of apathy. For somebody it happens every day; others are usually motivated and hard-working, although sometimes struggle to get themselves out of bed.
Successful people are not the exception. They also have to fight with their own laziness and work hard on motivating themselves. However, there is one magical quality that successful people possess – DETERMINATION.
Do you want to achieve success? You don’t need luck. Work your way through all the obstacles, through your own laziness. Set a goal that will motivate you enough to be determined about it. Build your self-determination. It will eventually become your own magic wand, your source of all powers. It will lead you through all the pits and falls to the desirable outcome.
And believe me – you can do much more than you think you can!
