Millions are aiming for success but few hit the finish line. Here is your inspiration to chase your dreams without losing focus or being a failure.
Here is one of the most inspiring messages you could use as a catalyst for your ideal life. However, as simple as this message “aiming for success” sounds -—it takes a lot of works to transform that “aim” into success.
Let me share with you a few reasons why you should aim for a successful future without any single doubt. Believe me, you already have all the arsenals to shoot for the stars. Haha… Take a look at this quote below:
“Aim for the moon. If you miss, you may hit a star” — W. Clement Stone
Mr. Clement got it right but there are more to it. It’s all about dreaming big and working assiduously to see things happen right in front of you. Never mind how long it would take. Exercising patience might be painful, but it worth the huge reward ahead!
Honestly, I am not a fan of negative inspiration like setting a deadline for my lofty goals. Oh no! It doesn’t help someone like me. Let me keep the ball rolling and be in control.
If your aim is too small and cheap in life, you may not make it big in life. Dream big and never give up! Look, some say the sky is the limit but I say so far as there are footsteps on the moon then you have to dream to move beyond the sky. It all begins in your mind.
“The mind is the limit. As long as the mind can envision the fact that you can do something, you can do it, as long as you really believe 100 percent”
—Arnold Schwarzenegger
I can already see the winner’s circle and that is where I’m gonna be— meet me there. If you have a vision in life, no distractions will bog you down.
Most importantly, we ought to approach the unknown future with a positive mentality powered by an unwavering faith in God. With God all things are possible. But you have to prepare yourself so that the Lord God will also direct your path, protect you and make your endeavors prosperous.
So far as you have feasible goals at hand— there is no cause of alarm. Oh yeah, the storm will surely blow, the flood will come and the rain will fall. But for a little while, then here comes the sunshine!
Prepare Yourself
As the saying goes “Life is war”, there is no need to freak out because you were born a warrior. I’ve already told you —you already have all the arsenals. Never underestimate the power of your “brain.” Not forgetting the power of the “human spirit” as well. That small lever inside your head is very powerful. Use it!
You must know how to use it to make good decisions, solve problems, learn new things and be efficient in everything you do. Remember, that time is money. You may either pay the process involves in getting something done with money or bear the opportunity cost. Aim for success, plan well, work hard and chase that goal.
Aiming For Success Like No Body’s Business
You can’t be waking up in the morning and going back to sleep without any plans. Ah ah, what kind of human are you? You can’t expect anything good from an aimless person. He is like a dried leaf that moves in the direction of the wind.
But to the one who is aiming for a successful life; he is like a live fish that fights the ocean currents(resilience to failure). Because it’s only a dead fish that swims with the stream.
You are a multicellular organism with a creative mind, responsibilities, and a lot more to do in life. If you fail to plan, you will automatically plan to fail. Aim for success in your education, job, business, marriage, relationships, etc.
The moment the mind envisions the fact that you can do it then go all out and do it. Say no to cognitive biases and stay awakened. Laziness, fear, negaholics, and other challenges will surely come. But they all come for a reason; to strengthen and prepare you for greater achievement.
Most of us have to fight real hard for our lofty goals because that mammoth dream wouldn’t materialize on a silver platter. You may have to fight against all odds every single day. Without a fight how can you be declared the victor?
Know Your Target
It is about setting realistic goals and chasing them on daily basis. It takes one step at a time. As the saying goes: A journey of thousand miles begins with a step. Stay focused!
Hey you? What do you want to achieve in the next two, three, four…years? It shouldn’t just be a dream. But something worthy of your time, energy, and other resources.
A strong desire to achieve something better in life should be fueled with passion, prayers, determination, and hard work. You are going for the gold— not the silver. You are aiming for success but nothing less.
There is this thought-provoking question that— why everyone wants to be first or win the golden reward?
In a race, the golden prize will go to only one person. But ask yourself why that one person shouldn’t be you?. If you are a freak then don’t join the race. Life isn’t a good place for the weak or the lazy.
Work hard and make greater achievements. You would always need your conscious mind and strength. And probably other resources like time and money. Be efficient in the little step you take towards your future.
