Obtaining Success

 

 Why are some people successful when others fail at the same task? Successful people have the ability to do the difficult things that others cannot. They win that first fight in the mind and see things through. We had a great training session this morning. Those that attended made the decision to leave the comfort of their warm home and take on the challenges that were presented. Any one of the people in attendance could have turned off the alarm and rolled over but they didn't. Many people make the incorrect assumption that it is simply easier for some people to do things. People who get things done and are successful have simply developed excellent habits that allow them to be productive. They focus on what they will do rather than what they can't do. They are able to smother any negative thoughts and replace them with positive ones. In order to achieve success in any endeavor you are going to have to remove any poor, mediocre habits you have developed. I decided to post a picture of my daughter that I took in the fall. She is a successful dancer. She can make things look easy and natural. It only looks easy because she spends hours practicing outside of formal instruction. She does what many other girls her age will not and that is why she is successful. It does not come "naturally" to her. Waking up early to train isn't fun for anyone. Studying late at night is a sacrifice. Success comes at a price and you must be willing to pay for it!
