There Are No Secrets To Success

15 replies
As you strive toward accomplishing your goals and dreams you
need to know that there are no secrets to success! Webster's
Dictionary defines a secret as something kept from public
knowledge; something mysterious that is beyond general
knowledge or understanding. If that were true then it would
mean success is only possible for those few who have access
to these great mysterious secrets.

Nonsense!

You Are What You Believe! Today Is YOUR Day!

Today is the day you can decide to change your life. Change
the way you think about things and begin to make a
difference in your life.

Decide to believe your life is going to be an exciting
adventure. Decide to believe you will be a success. Decide
to believe today is going to be better than yesterday.
Decide to make a difference for someone else and you will
make a difference for yourself as well.

Decide and it will be TRUE FOR YOU!

There are no secrets to success -- because they are
available to everyone. You have to WANT to know them. You
have to LOOK for them. You have to DO something with them
once you know them. By applying the four truths I've shared
with you today, your life will change dramatically - success
will be within your grasp and you will make a difference.

    Very true. We have to DECIDE to succeed, and I believe that is the hardest part. Once we commit to achieving a goal and doing whatever it takes to succeed, there is nothing stopping us from achievement but ourselves.

    You definitely have to WANT what you achieve. I've written before, no one is going to do anything for you.

    Gaining the ability to decide what you want to do for yourself and becoming a go-getter is a huge step in the right direction.

    It may feel like a secret to some, but it's simple! Nice moto.

    The exploitation of such a simple thing is selling like crazy.

    I have my own opinions as to why, but they aren't all nice things to say sometimes! But I think a lot of people need to wake up and start living. Too many people look for these "secrets to success" but they fail to realize that the biggest secret is in the mirror.

    It's almost sad in a way how many people I know spend hundreds of dollars and waste so much time looking for some secret "secret" tip to succeed better. Most of those people are still working a dead end job, unemployed, or are bitter at everything- with almost new motivational and self-help books collecting dust.

    Living in your failures will continue to attract them to you! Stay positive and motivated, friend.

    there is a secret .. you can't hit targets you do not have .. not can you achieve goals you never set

    and sometime most of the goals you set are not really your goals but goals you think you should have .

    and most of your goals do not need to involve money .

    modern Americans have lost many of the skills sets previous generations depended on .. so they are overly dependent on the current system .

    by not having many of these skills they are forced to depend on their financial ability to get all their needs met ..

    if there is a secret to success ..it would be not to limit your live to your financial ability

    oh yeah ..the other secret ..success builds on success from overcoming misstates and failures .

    now my view of success is toned down from some here .. i woke up this morning .. no pain at all . i have not had and deep bouts of depression in 6 weeks..frustration yeah ..i am comfortable where i am for the first time in my life ..and to through financial in it ..in a draw 3 feet from me is enough money for me to live on for the next month ..

    have a personalized definition of success .. not the one that modern marketing tries to drop on your shoulders .. or the attempt to do thing the rich did a generation ago .

    I believe the "secret" to success... The one thing that really leads to success is simply work.

    But as the concept of "work" is not very flashy and as a result does not sell.

    We tend to invent new flashy concepts to make people believe that there's more to it and sell more stuff...

    Cheers,

    I think the secret to success is different from each other. it varies to how we see success which means that my secret to success can actually be different from yours.

    I think one of the keys to success for anyone is energy. How much rejection and "grinding" can you endure without giving up? That's one trait I saw in common with people who were successful vs those that were not. Being able to push through, that's huge.

    Great post and comments!

    Success comes in many ways. What is important I beleive is checking the results and if they are not as you want check for their roots... because maybe you have some limiting beleifs which limit your ability to make good choices and take action.
