Seven Steps for Success!

Seven Steps for Success!
By: May McCarthy

It is always interesting to me to see the differences between successful people who appear to be abundant, fortunate, and prosperous and those who seem tired, exhausted, and struggle to make ends meet. Successful people know that it’s important to set specific goals, consistently review them, focus on their skills, and act on opportunities to achieve their goals. They don’t journey through life reacting to every situation, they steer their course through life and expect good outcomes in spite of what is going on around them.

We all want to be consistent in focusing on our goals, but that can be tough when life presents us with unexpected situations. Your boss might ask more of you at work; your children or spouse might need you to be home more often and available to attend important events; you might even feel like you don’t have enough time for yourself to relax, have fun, and plan for the future. Before long, consistency can seem like an unobtainable dream.

Often in the midst of crisis, competitive pressures, and family obligations, we can feel overwhelmed and forget to focus our attention on the desired outcomes of our goals rather than the immediate circumstances of our situations. We can listen to the news, read industry reports, and hear colleagues who describe probable and dismal outcomes that they say are inevitable.  The only way to keep yourself focused on the goals and outcomes that you want to experience is to follow a consistent daily routine that is deliberate in priming your brain for success so that you can achieve the outcomes that you desire.

Since 1982, I have had the privilege of growing six profitable companies in a variety of industries. In that time I’ve learned that the most effective way to keep your goals in the forefront of your thoughts is to wake up 30 minutes earlier each morning to hold a meeting with your inner self.

Treat your morning meeting with your inner self seriously. Hold your meeting in a space that is free of disruptions, and create an agenda that you’ll follow. Make sure that you also have the necessary tools available: an uplifting book that describes successes of others achieving their goals, a pen, and a notebook for you to write in.

1. Read Something That Inspires You

Spend five minutes reading something uplifting to put you in a receptive mood. As you read about the successes of others, your mind will look for ways to make those kinds of successes familiar and normal for you. Suggested books to read are listed in the back of The Path to Wealth.
