7 KEYS TO SUCCESS YOU MUST KNOW ABOUT – TAKE ACTION TODAY

What is the key to success? 

Perhaps it is best summed up by this quote, everyone is looking for the magic pill to success the one key ingredient, the one single key to success, there Isn't one key there are many, you have the keys and you have the locks you just have to do the work, here is the key to success actually 7 keys to success that will get you well on your way to living the life you want to live. 

SET CLEAR GOALS 

Many studies have proven the link between successful people and goal setting simply put, how do you expect to reach your destination if you don’t know where that place is? Set clearly defined short and long term goals with dated deadlines and review them daily so they soak into your subconscious mind, after you’ve done that note down all the action steps you must take, if you are to reach those goals then get to work. If it works for you create a vision board of all the things you want and review that daily as well, remember if you can see it in your mind and you’re willing to work for it. One day you will have it in your life. 

STRONG WORK ETHIC 

The saying ‘’Hard work beats talent’’ is true almost every time I've never met a successful person that was’t prepared to give everything for their goal or dream, lazy and successful are not two words that go together if you aren’t willing to work for it don’t expect to have it long term. 

CONSISTENCY 

Just like anything in life if you don’t work on it consistently chances are you will never have it and if you do have it one day you will lose it, if you aren’t consistent with your diet or workout routine you will lose any good health and physique you had, if you aren’t consistent in relationships chances are you’ll have problems the same is true in business and entrepreneurship, if your message isn’t consistent if you work ethic and output isn’t consistent, how do you expect to have consistent growth and success? 

DISCIPLINE 

Discipline is huge one for all taypes of successful individuals from athletes to billionaires, it’s the discipline to get up early when you don’t feel like it. To say no to a night out with friends because you have something more meaningful to work on, the discipline to say no to negative temptations and short-term gain, in order to achieve long-term results and pride. 

WILLING TO SACRIFICE  

The ability to sacrifice now so you can enjoy later, to not take the easy path but whatever path leads you to where you want be long term. Are you willing to sacrifice now so you can enjoy later? Are you willing to suffer for a few years so you can spend the rest of your life on your terms? 

CONTINUOUS PURSUIT OF KNOWLEDGE 

As ‘’NAPOLEON HILL’’ said in his great book ‘’THINK AND GROW RICH’’ the way of success is the way of continous pursuit of knowledge, the world is moving and enolving so fast, if you aren’t adapting to change if you don’t have the mindset that you can never learn enough sooner or later whatever you have learned won’t be enough. Think about all the jobs opportunities industries and businesses that are at the top now but did not exist when you were in school, billion dollar brands like ‘’AirBnB Instagram, Uber, Bitcoin and Spotify’’ did not even exist 10 years ago if the founders of these platforms didn’t have a mindset of continually learning and applying new technologies and opportunities their inventions would not exist. The more you learn the more you earn and you can never learn enough. 

THE ABILITY TO LISTEN 

Just like you can never learn enough you can never listen enough, listen to other who have succeeded and failed before you. Listen to the great teachers and leaders listen to friends family and business colleagues to form better relationships, listen to feedback and criticism to improve yourself, your business and your results in any area of your life Mr. Know-it-all never stays at the top because he never has his eyes open to things that may be wrong. Things many other people see be open to listen, humble enough to admit defeat if defeated but strong enough to follow your gut instinct every time.
