Almost all self-help success type mindsets tend to miss one thing, something the Sedona Method cleared up for me:

Success doesn't have to be a "struggle", if you don't make it one.

The reason that most people don't succeed is sometimes said to be something like "They give up", "They can't withstand pain" or "They don't work hard enough". Bull.

I work 4h per day, I don't feel that it's work, and I can just say to myself "Go to work. Write this. Call that guy."...I could've never done that in the past, where I thought to succeed you must fight yourself and others and push and be motivated, yada yada.

You don't. Just allow yourself to drop your resistance and say "It doesn't have to be a struggle. I can feel awesome while doing X."

With that mindset, I can actually think of success and be okay with it, previously I almost always went "Damn, you'll have to do a lot to get there".

Hello,

If you think about the success the you will get the success in your life.

I find it somewhat comical that the post starts:

Interestingly enough, that second line is a sign of lack.

Thinking about success is great. It's important and perhaps it is critical. However, nobody can always think of success and we shouldn't get down ourselves when our limiting beliefs show their ugly head.

Instead, we need to work on constantly finding our limiting beliefs and re-frame them or get past them so they don't hold us back. Thinking of success is important, but nobody is always thinking 100% positive. Start where you are and aim to get better instead of trying to reach an unattainable perfection.

For me the most powerful thing is to
decide to do something,
no matter what,
with a deadline that I can't get out of,
on a project that means everything to me.

- I'm not thinking about success,
I'm thinking about getting the job done,
and success flows from that.

There are certified ways of succeeding in everything you do. There are also basic steps that we must take if we will ever be successful. One of the greatest ways of succeeding is following the paths of those that have succeeded. Remember Rich Dad and Poor Dad?
One was so good in academics but seriously lacking in financial empowerment. So, to be successful academically, there is a path whilst you must also locate the path to financial independence.

in my opinion success is being persistent no matter what you face no matter what you hear. Believe in what you are doing even when the very knowledgeable person tells you are wrong!

definitely easier said than done!
