Daily Motivation - May 16, 2009
Success is a treasure that all of people in the world want. Success enables you to be proud of your exceptional achievement. Success enables you to create wonderful life you desire. Success enables you to give happiness to all you love. Success enables you to gain satisfaction in your life.
But one question arises, who is responsible for your success? Think about it for a moment. Is there any person, something or condition that make you successful?
Now, I change the question, who is responsible for your failure? I know most of the people think that there is something affecting their success or failure. You can know it by people saying, “I fail because of economic crisis, I can’t do it because my family don’t support me, I fail because of the recent bad situation and bla bla bla…”
You see that those who aren’t successful always make tons of reasons why they fail to accomplish something. They believe there is an external power that controls and affects their success or failure. And worse, they believe strongly that it is out of their control. Therefore, they do not do anything to make any changes, because they simply believe that’s not their responsible to do that. By having such an attitude, are you sure they will make a turn back and create success in their life? I bet you aren’t.
The fact is they are taking full responsibility for why they fail. Simply ask them and they will give you a lot of logical excuses/reasons. Although their excuses are quite logical, it’s just their decision to let their excuses keep them away from success. They make a decision to walk toward failure, and when they are aware of what happen, they will deny and shout that someone or something is responsible.
Back to the first question, there will be the same thing that there is no one or nothing that gives contribution to your success. In other words, you create your own success, you create your own luck and you create your own achievement. No one or nothing is responsible except you are. You are successful because you have done something specifically that produce the success you are now enjoying. Even though perhaps there are some people helping or supporting you, but it’s just you that make a decision to be successful. If all people support you, but you keep doing nothing, you will achieve nothing, won’t you?
If you think that motivational gurus can help you to achieve success, you are totally wrong. If you believe that motivational or success seminars can light up the fire to motivate you to achieve success, you are wrong, too. If you say that certain condition can create a momentum of your success, you are wrong. The truth is that you help yourself to achieve success. No one can help you to achieve success except you. No one can motivate you except you. There’s only one person you can ask for help, yourself.
Let me give you a simple example. Imagine you are attending, let’s say, the most powerful seminar that can super-turbo-flash-skyrocket your success. If, after attending the seminar, you do not apply what you have learnt, all will be useless. It’s just wasting your energy and time. You will never produce exceptional results you dream. From the illustration above, does the seminar can transform you into successful person? No way. Only you can change yourself by applying what you learnt in the seminar before. That’s why you are responsible for results you are creating.
You have the powers to achieve what you desire. You are equipped with resources to create incredible results in your own life. Don’t hope someone or something will drive you to success. Erase those mindsets and now employ the mindset that your destiny is in your hand. Only you can change and shape your destiny. Say to yourself, “I’m Responsible for my success”
