success doesn't just happen it's not an
accident success is attracted to certain
kinds of people and today we're going to
talk about how you can become that
person who attracts success like a
magnet now some of you might be thinking
but I'm not successful yet how can I
attract success well let me tell you
something success isn't just about what
you have it's about who you are it's
about the person you become in the
process of achieving your goal goals you
see success leaves Clues if you look at
successful people you'll notice they
have certain habits certain ways of
thinking certain attitudes that set them
apart and the good news is these are all
things you can learn and
develop so let's start with the
foundation the first step in becoming
the person who attracts success is to
take full responsibility for your life
now I know that might sound a bit scary
but it's actually incredibly empowering
when you take responsibility you're
saying I am in control of my life my
success or failure depends on me you
stop blaming others you stop making
excuses and you start taking action I
remember talking to a young man once who
was complaining about his job he said I
hate my job my boss is terrible the pay
is lousy I'm stuck and I asked him well
what are you doing about it he looked at
me blankly he hadn't even considered
that he could do something about it
that's the difference between successful
people and unsuccessful people
successful people don't wait for things
to happen they make things happen they
don't say I can't they ask how can I now
let's talk about goals if you want to
attract success you need to know what
success looks like for you you need to
have clear specific goal I like to think
of goals
as a destination on a map if you don't
know where you're going how will you
know when you get there how will you
know which road to take but here's the
thing about goals they need to be your
goals not your parents' goals for you
not society's goals not what you think
you should want your goals need to be
what you truly desire I once met a woman
who was miserable in her high-paying
corporate job she had achieved what many
would consider success
good salary nice car big house but she
wasn't happy when I asked her what she
really wanted to do she said she'd
always dreamed of opening a small
bookstore that was her true goal and
once she acknowledged it and started
working towards it her whole life
changed she became energized passionate
alive that's the power of pursuing your
own goals now having goals is great but
it's not enough you need to write them
down there's something magical that
happens when you put pen the paper it's
like you're sending a message to your
subconscious mind saying this is
important pay attention to this and
don't just write them once and forget
about them review your goals regularly I
recommend reading them every morning
when you wake up and every night before
you go to bed this keeps them fresh in
your mind and helps you stay
focused but here's where many people go
wrong they set a goal and then they sit
back and wait for it to happen
that's not how it works goals without
action are just wishes you need to take
consistent persistent action towards your
your
goals this is where discipline comes in
discipline is the bridge between goals
and accomplishment it's what gets you
out of bed early to work on your
business when you'd rather sleep in it's
what makes you save money for your
future when you'd rather spend it now
it's what pushes you to keep going when
things get tough now I know discipline
isn't a very popular word these days we
live in a world of instant gratification
every wants success now without putting
in the work but let me tell you there
are no elevators to success you have to
take the
stairs think about it this way every day
you're building your future every action
you take every decision you make is like
laying a brick one brick might not seem
like much but if you lay a brick every
single day eventually you'll have built
a wall
keep going and you'll have a house
that's how success works it's the result
of small consistent actions over time
but here's the exciting part as you
develop discipline and take consistent
action you start to see results and
those results motivate you to keep going
it becomes a positive cycle success
breeds success now let's talk about
something that's crucial if you want to
attract success
your mindset your mind is like a garden
whatever you plant in it will grow if
you plant negativity doubt and fear
that's what will grow but if you plant
positivity confidence and Faith that's
what will
flourish so you need to be very careful
about what you allow into your mind the
books you read the TV shows you watch
the people you spend time
with all these influence your mindset I
always say if you want to know what your
life will look like in five years look
at two things the books you read and the
people you associate with these have a
profound impact on your thinking and
consequently your actions and
results speaking of books let me ask you
something how many books have you read
in the last month the last year
successful people are readers they're
always learning always growing they
understand that formal education will
make you a living but self-education
will make you a fortune
I recommend reading at least 30 minutes
a day read books on success on business
on personal development read biographies
of successful people learn from their
experiences their mistakes their
insights and don't just read apply what
you learn knowledge isn't power it's
potential power it becomes power only
when you act on it now let's talk about
another crucial aspect of attracting
success your attitude your attitude
determines your altitude it's not what
happens to you that determines your
future it's how you respond to what
happens to you I remember a story about
two shoe salesmen who were sent to a
developing country to assess the market
potential the first salesman called back
and said situation hopeless no one wears
shoes here the second salesman called
back excited and said incredible
opportunity everyone needs shoes same
situation two different attitudes two
very different outcomes the person with
the positive attitude sees opportunity
where others see obstacles but having a
positive attitude doesn't mean ignoring
problems or pretending everything is
perfect it means facing challenges with
the belief that you can overcome them it
means seeing failures as lessons not
defeats and let me tell you something
something about failure it's not the
opposite of success it's part of success
every successful person has failed many
times the difference is they didn't let
failure stop them they learned from it
and kept
going Thomas Edison failed thousands of
times before he successfully invented
the light bulb when asked about it he
said I have not failed I've just found
10,000 ways that won't work that's the
attitude of a successful person now
let's talk about something that's often
overlooked when it comes to success your
habits your habits are the daily actions
that shape your life as Aristotle said
we are what we repeatedly do Excellence
then is not an act but a
habit successful people have successful
habits they have routines and practices
that support their goals and values
things like waking up early exercising
regularly planning their day
continuously learning these are all
habits of successful people the good
news is habits can be developed it takes
about 21 days to form a new habit so if
you want to attract success start
developing success habits pick one habit
you want to develop and focus on it for
the next 21 days then move on to next
one remember small changes can lead to
Big results over time if you improve
just one each day
after a year you'll be 37 times better
that's the power of insistent incremental
incremental
Improvement now let's discuss something
that's absolutely crucial if you want to
track success your network you've
probably heard the saying your net worth
is determined by your network and it's
true the people you associate with have
a huge impact on your success you are
the average of The Five People You spend
the most time with think about that for
a moment look at The Five People You
spend the most time with are they where
you want to be in life do they inspire
you to be better do they support your
goals and dreams if not it might be time
to expand your circle now I'm not saying
you should abandon your old friends but
you should seek out people who are where
you want to be people who challenge you
to grow who inspire you to reach higher
one of the best ways to do this is to
find a mentor a mentor is someone who's
already achieved what you want to
achieve they can guide you share their
experiences help you avoid common
pitfalls having a good Mentor can shave
years off your learning curve but
remember mentorship is a two-way street
you need to bring value to the
relationship too be eager to learn be
respectful of their time and most
importantly apply their
advice another powerful way to expand
your network is to join groups or
associations related to your field or
interests attend seminars workshops
conferences these are great places to
meet like-minded people and potential
men now let's talk about something
that's often misunderstood when it comes to
to
success money money is important no
doubt about it it's a tool that can help
you achieve your goals and live the life
you want but it's not
everything I've met plenty of people
people who were financially wealthy but
poor in other areas of life they had
lots of money but no time to enjoy it or
they had successful careers but their
personal relationships were a
mess true success is about balance it's
about being successful in all areas of
life your career your relationships your
health your personal growth your
contribution to society that's why it's
so important to Define what success
means to you don't just chase after
society's definition of success figure
out what a successful life looks like
for you and here's something crucial
your definition of success should
include helping others the most
successful people I know are also the
most giving they understand that true
fulfillment comes from contribution from
making a positive difference in the
lives of
others now let's talk about equality
That's essential if you want to attract
success persistence persistence is the
ability to keep going in the face of
obstacles setbacks and failures it's
what separates the Achievers from the
dreamers I love the story of Colonel
Sanders the founder of Kentucky Fried
Chicken did you know he was 65 years old
when he started KFC he took his chicken
recipe and went from restaurant to
restaurant trying to sell it he was
rejected 10:9 times before someone
finally said yes imagine if he had given
up after the 100th rejection or the
500th or even the 1,000 we wouldn't have
KFC today that's the power of
persistence but persistence doesn't mean
blindly doing the same thing over and
over it means learning from your
failures adjusting your approach and
trying again it means being willing to
Pivot than necessary but never giving up
on your ultimate
goal remember most people overestimate
what they can do in a year and
underestimate what they can do in a
decade success takes time it's not about
intensity it's about consistency it's
about showing up day after day even when
you don't feel like it even when you're
not seeing immediate
results now let's talk about something
that's often overlooked when it comes to
success your health your health is your
wealth you can have all the money in the
world but if you don't have your health
you can't enjoy it successful people
understand this they take care of their
physical and mental health they exercise
regularly eat a balanced diet get enough
sleep they manage their stress through
practices like meditation or yoga taking
care of your health isn't just about
living longer it's about having the
energy and vitality to pursue your goals
it's about being able to show up fully
in your life and work
and it's not just about physical health
mental health is equally important
successful people work on their mindset
daily they practice gratitude they
manage their emotions they cultivate a
positive outlook one practice I highly
recommend is keeping a gratitude journal
every day write down three things you're
grateful for this simple practice can
dramatically shift your perspective and
increase your overall happiness and success
success
now let's discuss something that's
crucial for attracting success
continuous learning and growth the world
is changing faster than ever
before what brought you success
yesterday might not work tomorrow that's
why successful people are always
learning always growing they see every
experience as an opportunity to learn
they're curious they ask questions they
seek out new challenges they understand
that the moment you stop growing you
start dying when one of the best ways to
ensure continuous growth is to step out
of your comfort zone regularly do
something that scares you a little bit
every day take on a new challenge learn
a new skill the more you push your
boundaries the more you'll
grow remember growth can be
uncomfortable it often involves facing
your fears admitting your weaknesses making
making
mistakes but that discomfort is where
the magic happens that's where you
discover what you're truly capable of
now let's talk about about a quality
That's essential for attracting success
Integrity integrity means being honest
keeping your word doing the right thing
even when no one is watching it's about
aligning your actions with your values
success without Integrity is not true
success it might bring you short-term
gains but it won't bring you lasting
fulfillment and eventually it will catch
up with you people of Integrity attract
success because they attract trust and
in business and in Life Trust TR is
everything when people trust you they
want to work with you do business with
you support you Integrity also brings
peace of mind when you live with
Integrity you can sleep well at night
you don't have to worry about keeping
track of lies or maintaining a False
Image you can just be
yourself now let's discuss something
that's often overlooked when it comes to
success the power of focus in today's
world we're constantly bombarded with
distractions social media emails
notifications they're all competing for our
our
attention but successful people know how
to focus they understand that where
focus goes energy flows they know how to
eliminate distractions and concentrate
on what's truly important one technique
I recommend is time blocking set aside
specific blocks of time for important
tasks and during those times eliminate
all distractions turn off your phone
close unnecessary browser tabs find a
quiet place to work remember
multitasking is a myth your brain can't
actually focus on multiple things at
once what we call multitasking is really
just rapidly switching between tasks and
it's incredibly inefficient instead
focus on one task at a time and give it
your full
attention another important aspect of
focus is knowing what to say no to
successful people are as proud of what
they don't do as they are of what they
do they understand that saying no to
good opportunities allows them to say
yes to great ones now let's talk about
something that's crucial for attracting
success your communication skills no
matter what field you're in your ability
to communicate effectively can make or
break your
success this includes both speaking and
listening successful people know how to
articulate culate their ideas clearly
and persuasively but they also know how
to listen actively and
empathetically one way to improve your
communication skills is to practice
public speaking join a group like Toast
Masters or look for opportunities to
present at work or in your community the
more you practice the more comfortable
and skilled you'll
become but remember communication isn't
just about talking it's about connecting
it's about understanding others and
making them feel understood develop your
emotional intelligence learn to read
body language and pick up on nonverbal
cues now let's discuss something that's
often overlooked when it comes to
success the power of creativity and
innovation in today's rapidly changing
world the ability to come up with new
ideas and solutions is more valuable
than ever successful people are
Innovative thinkers they're not content
with doing things the way they've always
been done they're always looking for
better more efficient ways to achieve their
their
goals one way to boost your creativity
is to expose yourself to new experiences
and ideas read books outside your usual
genre travel to new places talk to
people from different backgrounds the
more diverse your inputs the more
creative your outputs will be another
technique is to practice
brainstorming set aside time regularly
to gener generate new ideas without
judging them quantity is more important
than quality at this stage you can
evaluate and refine the ideas later
remember creativity isn't just for
artists it's a crucial skill in business
in problem solving in all areas of life
cultivate your creativity and you'll be
better equipped to attract
success now let's talk about something
that's essential for attracting
success resilience resilience is the
ability to bounce back from setbacks to
keep going in the face of adversity
resilience is not about avoiding
difficulties or pretending they don't
affect you it's about acknowledging the
challenges feeling the emotions that
come with them and then choosing to move forward
forward
anyway successful people understand that
setbacks are not permanent they see them
as temporary obstacles not
insurmountable barriers they know that
every setback carries with it the seed
of an equal or greater benefit if
they're willing to look for it one way
to build resilience is to reframe your
perspective on failure instead of seeing
failure as the opposite of success see
it as a stepping stone to success every
failure is an opportunity to learn to
grow to get
better I remember talking to a young
entrepreneur who was devastated after
his first business failed he felt like
giving up but when I asked him what he
learned from the experience his eyes lit
up he realized he had gained valuable
knowledge about what not to do about
market trends about managing finances
that knowledge became the foundation for
his next venture which became hugely
successful another key to building
resilience is to develop a strong
support network surround yourself with
people who believe in you who encourage
you who lift you up when you're down
remember no one succe ceeds
alone now let's talk about something
that's crucial for attracting success
your ability to adapt and be flexible
the only constant in life is change and
those who can adapt to change are the
ones who succeed successful people are
not rigid in their thinking or their
methods they're willing to change course
when necessary they understand that what
got them here won't necessarily get them
there this doesn't mean changing your
core values or your ultimate goals it
means being flexible in your approach
being willing to try new things to
experiment to Pivot when something isn't
working I'm reminded of a story about a
company that made Boogie whips when
automobiles started becoming popular
most Boogie whip companies went out of
business but one company adapted they
realized they weren't in the Boogie whip
business they were in the transportation
accessory business they started making
accessories for cars and became very
successful That's The Power of
adaptability it's about seeing the
bigger picture and being willing to
change your approach to achieve your
ultimate goal now let's discuss
something that's often overlooked when
it comes to success the importance of
balance success isn't just about
achieving in one area of your life it's
about creating a life that's fulfilling
and satisfying in all areas you think
about the different aspects of your life
you're career your relationships your
health your personal growth your
spiritual life your finances how would
you rate each of these on a scale of 1
to 10 successful people strive for
balance they understand that neglecting
one area of life for too long will
eventually impact all other areas if
you're working 80 hours a week and
neglecting your health and relationships
that's not true
success one way to create more balance
is to use the concept of roles and goals
identify the different roles you play in
life maybe you're a professional a
parent a spouse a friend a Community
member then set specific goals for each
role this ensures you're giving
attention to all areas of your life
remember balance doesn't mean giving
equal time to everything every day it
means making sure that over time you're
nurturing all aspects of your
life now let's talk about something
that's crucial for attracting success
your ability to manage your time
effectively time is our most precious
resource we all have the same 24 hours
in a day it's how we use those hours
that makes the difference successful
people are masters of Time Management
they understand the difference between
urgent and important they prioritize
tasks that move them closer to their
goals rather than just reacting to
whatever comes up one technique I
recommend is the Eisenhower Matrix it
involves categorizing tasks into four
quadrants based on their urgency and
importance this helps you focus on
what's truly important rather than just
what's screaming for your attention
another key to effective time management
is learning to say no every time you say
yes to something you're saying no to
something else make sure you're saying
yes to the right things the things that
align with your goals and
values now let's discuss something
that's often over look when it comes to
success the power of visualization your
mind doesn't know the difference between
what's vividly imagined and what's real
when you visualize your goals you're
programming your subconscious mind to
look for opportunities to make those goals
goals
reality successful people use
visualization regularly they create a
clear detailed mental image of what they
want to achieve they engage all their
senses in this
visualization what will they see hear
feel smell taste when they achieve their
goal but visualization isn't just about
Imagining the end result it's also about
visualizing the process seeing yourself
taking the necessary steps overcoming
obstacles doing the work required to
achieve your goal remember visualization
isn't a substitute for action it's a
tool motivate action to keep you focused
to help you stay committed to your goals
even when things get tough
now let's talk about something that's
crucial for attracting success your
ability to build and maintain
relationships success is not a solo
sport no matter what field you're in
your ability to connect with others to
build trust to collaborate effectively
will have a huge impact on your success
successful people are skilled at
building relationships they understand
the importance of networking not in a
superficial way but in a genuine way
they look for ways to add value to
others to help others succeed one key to
building strong relationships is to be a
good listener most people are so focused
on what they're going to say next that
they're not really listening but when
you truly listen to someone when you
give them your full attention you make
them feel valued and important another
important aspect of relationship
building is follow through do what you
say you're going to do be reliable be
someone others can count on now let's
discuss something that's often
overlooked when it comes to success the
importance of
self-awareness self-awareness is about
understanding your own thoughts emotions
motivations strengths and
weaknesses successful people have a high
degree of self-awareness they understand
their own patterns of behavior their
triggers their biases this allows them
to manage themselves effectively and to
make better
decisions one way to develop
self-awareness is through regular
self-reflection take time each day to
think about your actions your reactions
your decisions ask yourself why you did
what you did how you could have done
better another powerful tool for
developing self-awareness as feedback
seek out honest feedback from others it
might be uncomfortable at times but it's
invaluable for personal
growth now let's talk about something
that's crucial for attracting success
your ability to take calculated risks
success often requires stepping out of
your comfort zone trying new things
Taking Chances but this doesn't mean
being Reckless successful people are
willing to take risks but they're smart
about it they do their research they
wait the potential outcomes they have contingency
contingency
plans remember playing it safe can be
the riskiest move of all in a world
that's constantly changing staying still
means falling behind one way to become
more comfortable with risk-taking is to
start small take small risks regularly
as you see that you can handle the
outcomes you'll become more confident in
taking bigger
risks now let's discuss something that's
often overlooked when it comes to
success the power of patience in today's
world of instant gratification patience
has become a rare and valuable quality
success people understand that real
lasting success takes time they're
willing to delay gratification to put in
the work day after day even when they're
not seeing immediate results think about
planting a tree you plant the seed you
water it you nurture it for a long time
you don't see anything happening above
the ground but below the surface roots
are growing becoming strong and deep
then suddenly one day you see a sprout
and before you know know it you have a
strong T Tre success often works the
same way for a long time you might not
see visible results but if you're
patient if you keep putting in the work
eventually you'll see the fruits of your
labor remember patience doesn't mean
passivity it means working consistently
towards your goals trusting in the
process and not getting discourage when
things take longer than you'd like now
let's talk about something that's
crucial for attracting success your
ability to learn from failure failure is
not the opposite of success it's a part
of success every successful person has
failed many times on their Journey the
difference is in how they respond to
failure successful people don't let
failure defeat them they don't take it
personally instead they see it as
feedback as a learning opportunity Will
you fail at something ask yourself what
can I learn from this how can I use this
experience to get better to move closer
to my
goals remember failures in event not a
person just because you failed at
something doesn't make you a failure it
makes you someone who had the courage to
try now let's discuss something that's
often overlooked when it comes to
success the importance of Celebration we
often Focus so much on achieving our
goals that we forget to celebrate our
achievements along the way successful
people take time to acknowledge their
progress to celebrate their wins both
big and small this isn't about being
boastful it's about recognizing your
efforts reinforcing positive behavior
and maintaining Mo celebration also
helps to train your brain to associate
hard work with positive feelings making
you more likely to continue putting in
the effort remember the journey is just
as important as the destination don't
wait until you've achieved your ultimate
goal to feel successful celebrate each
step along the way now as we near the
end of our time together I want to
emphasize something crucial becoming the
person who attracts success is a journey
not a destination it's about constant
growth continuous learning and ongoing
self-improvement the principles we've
discussed today taking responsibility
setting clear goals developing
discipline cultivating a positive
mindset building strong relationships
being persistent maintaining Integrity
focusing communicating effectively being
creative and Innovative building
resilience adapting to change
maintaining balance managing time
effectively visualizing success
developing self-awareness taking
calculated risks being patient learning
from failure and celebrating progress
these are not one-time tasks they're
ongoing practice
es incorporate these principles into
your daily life make them habits let
them shape who you are and how you
approach life remember success is not
something you pursue success is
something you attract by the person you
become so focus on becoming the best
version of yourself develop your skills
expand your knowledge cultivate your
character and as you do this you'll find
that success starts to flow into your
life naturally opportunities will open
up the right people will come into your
life things will start to fall into
place but even then don't stop growing
don't become complacent keep pushing
yourself keep learning keep improving
that's what truly successful people do
inclusion I want to leave you with this
thought you have greatness within you
you have the potential to achieve
amazing things but that potential needs
to be developed nurtured and acted upon
so starting today commit to becoming the
person who attracts success commit to
your growth to your learning to your
improvement commit to taking action
towards your goals every single day
remember Success is Not an Accident it's
a choice and that choice begins with
deciding to become the kind of person
