S U C C E S S ... What is the secret? That's the million dollar question!
First of all its important to understand what success means to you. To one person it may be amassing lots and lots of money, while to another it may just mean earning enough to take care of the basic needs of his or her family.
Once you have defined your meaning of success, you are ready for the next step. The next step is to set a goal (short /medium/long term, all three are essential) based on your definition of success.
Well, this is certainly half the battle won because once you know where you are going , its just a matter of taking the right road to your destination. In case you skip the vital cog in the wheel and don't set a proper goal, you are doomed to fail.
Now you must have three simple but critical things with you to ensure success; and they are:
1. Common Sense
2. A Sense of Urgency
3. Experience
Common sense, because the small things matter the most. It's said; a small leak will sink the largest of ships. So , common sense is one of the critical pillars of success. If you lack it , acquire it; and if you have it, use it.
Similarly , it is said , time and tide wait for no man. This statement has become totally relevant with respect to the fast changing modern world. Either you execute your ideas and plans right now or be prepared to fail, and this would apply to every aspect of life not only business and career but normal life situations too. Think about it. But, ensure you execute, implement and do it now, just do it , and Nike is so right...
Experience is acquired through time. That does not mean you cannot expedite the process of acquiring experience. Just speak to experienced people, take their advice, keep your eyes and ears open and mouth shut.
Do all this and succeed in whatever you want to achieve in life.
