What made up a successful person?



                Being successful never come from genes nor it would come from luck, but if it does it will be short-lived if your character is not yet ready to hold success. A successful human being is made. But what made them up? Listed below comes from my own observation of the common denominator of individuals who are destined to success:
1.       A DREAMER
Everything starts with a dream! But sometimes, it is unfortunate that this privilege is not taken advantage of some people. They are afraid not to realize their dream and so they don’t dream at all. But no successful person ever succeeded without having that end in mind. Each must have that burning desire to succeed! Think of the people you love, think of the kind of life you want them to experience. Think of the places you want to reach, of the good things that you want to have a taste of. The world is a huge catalogue which is just waiting for your order or for what you want to happen in your life. And the world listens and will give you what your heart truly wants! So be courageous and dream high! Achieving all the good things in the world starts with a dream! It is free so get your share!

2.       POSITIVE OUTLOOK
Positive outlook in life is inevitable. We feel that we are empowered associating with people who are optimistic. Optimism attracts positive energy which supports the things we long for and would want to achieve. We are in aligned with what we want in life if we feel good, if we see things in a positive way and otherwise if we just see misery, we feel anger, doubt guilt, and other negative mindset. Did you ever feel easy to deal with a new colleague if you thought of him or her as a nice individual prior to actually shaking hands with the person? And did you ever feel the tension of dealing with someone new at work if you think of him or her as a threat to your promotion?  One quote from the movie "The Secret" by Rhonda Byrne: “What you think, what you feel and what manifests is always a match.” So beware of your emotions since they have big impact towards achieving success.

3.       LEARNING TO UNLEARN
It takes humility to unlearn the things that you have learned. It just wants you to be adaptive to change since it is the only constant thing on earth. To learn new things, you sometimes need to humble down and listen to people who have been there, who have proven something in that field. Always think of yourself as a work-in-process individual and you will realize in the end how much lessons and skills in life you have acquired. You have nothing to lose but a lot more to gain if you just empty your cup.

4.       PERSEVERING
           Failures will test your character as a person. The world has its own way to test you, to make you realize things and they can sometimes be funny and at times inconceivable. But it is the spirit of perseverance that you must maintain. Most of the times, people can see the treasure at the end of the road but it is the voyage along the rocky road that limits them from reaching the finish line. It is because they choose to be in their comfort zone, they would not want to experience disappointments and so they won’t try, they don’t want to hear criticisms and so they won’t stand up for what they believe is right and really deserve and eventually give up the things they truly want. Your dream is the finish line, but perseverance is the fuel to keep you going.

5.       COMMITTED
             Just focus to your end goal. Once and for all decide that you want success and commit to achieving it!

                God has endowed you with unique gifts that can be a curse if you left it unused. Maximize what you have, give your best on every task at hand, focus on the present moment with that end in mind. Believe that you can and grow yourself every time to achieve more and for you to be a blessing and inspiration to others by telling your own taste of success! You deserve nothing but the best in life!
