Success is interpreted in various forms. It has many meanings depending on someone. To athletes, success can mean reaching to the top and winning gold medal. To parents, success can mean raising children with good education. To doctors, success can mean curing and saving life or earning money with it. It actually depends on one’s perspective of the life.

One important thing about success is that each of you has to determine the true meaning of success in your own life. If you are attempting to accomplish success through someone else’s standards, you will continuously be lacking of that successful feeling.

You should make a decision on what you truly want that can offer an exceptional desired outcome. To accomplish success, you must set goals for your life and take proper action towards it.

And you have to know that “subconscious mind” is a very incredible and powerful tool to accomplish astounding success.

To fully understand how powerful and amazing your “subconscious mind” can be, you should understand first that there is nothing in life occurs just by chance. It means that nothing is predestined, that you have the power to control everything, your life, your success or even your failure.

Expectation, belief and desire are three resourceful forces that can help you to achieve success you desire. Before anything you wish for to occur can happen, you must desire for it to happen. Then you must 100 % believe it will happen and then expect that it will happen.

The “subconscious mind” creates all things in one’s life that is on the information and messages one sends to it.

It will be truly difficult to achieve what your truly want if you are not specific and clear about your goals. So, remember that whatever you display in your beliefs, thoughts and actions are sent to the “subconscious mind”.

So be very careful of your thoughts, beliefs and actions, as they are great influences to your success. Thinking that you do not have the capability to accomplish your goals then you will never achieve them. Thinking that there are no opportunities out there then there will never be.

Why? It’s simply because the “subconscious mind” is constantly receiving on information that you have sent. Negative information results to negative reality and positive information you send will result to positive reality.

When you successfully accomplish your goals, stop a while and enjoy the satisfaction and pleasure of achieving your goals. It is success regardless big or small. It is the beginning of life that you want for yourself. It will create magic momentum to achieve other goals. It will create a snow-ball effect that becomes bigger and bigger.

Daily Motivation - November 16, 2008

Perseverance is an attitude to keep going and doing whatever it takes to achieve success in spite of obstacles, challenges or barriers. Only those who persevere will make the success theirs. They never give up, they will stand up one more time when falling, they will never let failure makes them down and they will keep up the proper action until they make it.

This is one of inspirational story to open your eyes about how perseverance makes everything realizable. Maybe you do not know well about maritime geography in Canada, but it doesn’t matter.

There is an island called Prince Edward Island and there is a province named province of New Brunswick. In the past, the transportation link between both of them was by ship or ferry. The project of linking these two places by building a bridge was only a dream.

There were many obstacles had to be overcome. They had to solve the tremendous pressure from ice along its pylons when winter came and spring thaw.

Eventually, however, the dreamed project was successfully accomplished. It began in 1993 and the bridge has approximately 14 miles in length. The Confederation Bridge was then officially opened in 1997 and became the longest bridge on the surface of ice-covered water in the world.

Only perseverance determined the success of the project over a period of four years. The project would perhaps never be finished if the team involved did not persevere to overcome the greatest challenges they encountered. The reward of perseverance is the bridge we can see today.

What about you? Ask yourself and answer honestly if you have this attitude or not. As you know, the journey to success is not always that easy. Don’t hope it will be easy. There will be large stones, sharp gravels and even deep holes that will make you think about thousands of excuses to quit almost instantly. If you persevere and being wholeheartedly, you will surely be in the end of your way to achieve anything you desire.

Those who persevere will take the challenge and turn it into great success and those who don't will detour on the pathway of success.

I recently watched the movie “You Don’t Mess with the Zohan”. Zohan, starred by Adam Sandler, is a top Israeli commando whose job is to chase the terrorist.

But, he fakes his own death just to quit from his recent job and to pursue his dream. His dream is to become a famous hairstylist in New York City. He tells his parents about his dream. They do not believe in what their son has said and then fall in laughter.

No matter what they say, Zohan keep going to New York City to his friend’s salon named PAUL MITCHELL. But, he can’t find his friend. Besides that, he also finds his fan that works in an electronic shop and offers him a job. As you know, he refuses that because of his dream to be a top hairstylist.

Day after day when he can’t find his friend in salon and have no job, he then visit an electronic shop to meet his friend. His friend warmly welcomes him. But after Zohan says he wants to work, his friend rejects him.

He then points to three employees. He says that one of them comes to America to be a racing car driver, but he slips away. Another wants to be the next Bill Cosby, but the shop keeps pulling him back. And the last one, he wants to be a hand model, but he is too comfortable at work. He said to Zohan, “Once you get in the shop, you’ll never get out. This shop is a dream killer. I don’t want to see Zohan kills his dream.”

And he finally works with a Palestinian girl named Dalia. Soon after he works, the salon becomes so famous and many people, especially women come there to have their hair cut. He then marries her and they together open a new salon.

We are often trapped by our daily activities. We are so busy that makes us forget our dreams. We are too comfortable in our zone, in the place where we stay. This comfort situation makes our dreams fade. We will soon forget what we want to be, to have and to do in our life.

It is not so easy because it will cost our comfort to get out of where we stay to where we want to go. It needs big sacrifice. Many people are not ready to encounter a sudden change. If they want to pursue their dreams, it will mean they must walk out of their recent comfort zone. That makes many people rather choose to be what they are today than choose to be what they want to be.

The important lesson for you is: don’t let your dream buried deep down because of your comfortable life. Your dream is worth to be pursued and achieved, don’t make it just a dream. Make it happens. Your dream or success is lying outside your comfort zone. You just need to be brave enough to get out of it.
