Success is the reward of persistence - a video demonstration

March 24, 2008 – 4:57 am

Are you successful? 

  • If you have to ask the question, then the answer is NO! 
  • If you have the ability to do more than you are currently doing, then the answer is NO! 
  • If no one is asking you for your advice on being successful, then the answer is NO!  Millionaire Mommy currently boasts a subscribership of 2848 readers and that number is growing.  I’ll bet that they read her posts to discover how she became a millionaire.  People want her advice because she is successful. 

Do you want to be successful? 

Everyone wants to be successful, right?  Not really.  Everyone dreams of success, but few “do” anything that moves them toward success.  The “doing” is a requirement for “having and enjoying”.  What are you doing that will lead you to success? 

Here are some clues: 

  • If you are doing the same things as all your friends and associates, then you will not be successful. 
  • Successful people are different by their very nature.  They separate themselves not because they have special abilities, but because they have developed common abilities to uncommon levels.  Everyone works, but they work hard.  Everyone has an idea, but they pursue their idea.  Everyone starts a fitness program, but they continue it.   
  • Successful people realize that success can be achieved because others have done it.  Success is not a secret – it leaves clues.  Do what successful people do and you will increase your chances of being successful. 
  • Successful people don’t sacrifice the “excellence of achievement” for the mediocrity of “good enough”.

What does success mean to you? 

Let’s get to the point – No one is going to “give” you success.  You must earn it and that may take time.  Watch the following video that I found on Dethroner – it defines success on so many levels.  This video is about eight minutes long, but worth every second.  Some points to remember as you watch:

  • Obstacles can be in your way even when you don’t see them.
  • Troubles can chase you down.
  • When you are down, others want a piece of you.
  •  Always fight for what you want.
  • It helps to be a part of a “strong support network”. 
  • Never give up!  Never quit!

You will be successful when you want success as badly as this calf wants to survive.  It’s as simple as that.

How is your shoulder performance and flexibility?
