By Kurt Lee Hurley
Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out. ---- Robert Collier
Your journey to success is a pathway that only you and you alone can take, it is paved with gold as well as a little black and blue. The truly valuable lessons are in the learning and in the acquisition of all the necessary requisite tools to not only make manifest your desires, but to also assist in the development of your well of resources, resources that you will always have, always need and will be tools that you can use to help others achieve what you too have been able to achieve.
Taking inspired and motivated action to get out of your current groove is the first step in living and enjoying the life you've always dreamed of, the life you are capable of. So if you want to change your life, start with ‘changing your mind’. Positively!
There is no better time to initiate positive action than right now. Plan and prepare, develop confidence in your research and preparedness. Don’t allow yourself to become petrified and immobilized by indecision. Realize that the time has come and you must act. If you hesitate, doubts will set in, continue to skulk and then turn into fear. You may falter a little. Yes, you may experience rejection. And yes, you may fail and fail you should, temporarily. That’s life. Life’s winners accept that in attempting to achieve their desires, they may have to modify accordingly and even begin again and perhaps again. The difference between successful people and those that just don’t get it is not whether you make mistakes or even provisionally fail, but how you respond to your failures and that you pick yourself up after each fall and continue on.
Indeed, a positive mental attitude is the consequence of a life devoted to self-improvement and to passionate service. With a personal pledge to doing and being your best today, you mustn’t be overtly concerned for the morrow. You can be self-assured that excellent things will happen and be equally confident that if difficulty arrives, you will have the mind, the might, the tools and the proficiency to muddle through, take control and then triumph over. You are resilient. You keep on keeping on. You don’t allow the concept of doubt to annihilate your dreams.
Unless you outline/configure your own life, circumstances and events will outline/configure your life for you. You must work, sacrifice, invest, persist and persevere to get the outcome you desire. Choose well. You can’t plan your journey until you know where your destination lies.
You are the sculptor, the master craftsman of your own image and self-concept. Have others already achieved what you want to achieve? Is there somebody in any walk of life that you really revere and have a high regard for? Analyze them and do what they did, it is called replication. Start anywhere, at anytime, and endure till the end. Believe in yourself and your innate abilities. Have the self-confidence to challenge your current state of affairs. This is your life to live; it’s little by little, day by day and step by step.
Judiciously write down your goals. A mere three percent of people have written goals and only one percent reviews those written goals daily. Be in that elite one percent. Visualize the attainment of your goals, your objectives often. Goals are dreams with dates attached. You will only become as great and as happy as the goals you choose, again I say “Choose Well” …It is imperative!
It's not going to be a cakewalk. You will have to emerge from your comfort zone to discover your inherent, but most likely latent potentials and be open to receive the inevitable opportunities lying in wait for you. You have to overcome your fears and take the necessary calculated risks to overtake them. You must remain laser-focused and persevere despite the obstacles you will encounter along the way.
Success doesn't come quick; it doesn’t come easy and should be painful enough to elicit deep introspection. It requires heart and soul; it requires passion and an unfailing burning desire. It will most assuredly also take considerable time before you can actually harvest the fruits of your labor, but you will reap what you sow. Trust me!
But how do you actually survive this phase? This is the period when you're working extremely hard to achieve your goals. This is also the best illustration of your mettle, when you must endure whatever adversity comes your way. The time has come for you to work harder, dig deeper, and sacrifice more to attain your ambitious desires. Remember the Law of Attraction: You attract into your life that which represents your true aspirations; you will only get what you give. This is law!
So what must you do? Discover the beauty of your current conditions, because wherever you go, there you are. Become a witness to the positive side of life, don’t just observe, and develop a testimony. Become passionate. Love your family, your boss, your coworkers, your friends, and even strangers. Again, it won’t be easy; nevertheless nothing ----I whole-heartedly mean nothing----is at all impossible with iron-clad will power.
Balance is the key. Dream a big dream, taking positive action to move you onward and upward toward your goals. Remember: take it one step at a time. However while you're slowly creeping along the long and winding journey to success, be patient and remain as enthusiastic as possible. Enjoy the journey; after all, it is your life. Eventually, you will attain what you have so patiently longed for. Steadfastly remain humble. The rewards for humility are vast and far-reaching.
Okay, so here we are, are you ready to begin the journey? If so, then initiate it with the bravery, the audacity and the desire to improve your life. Stay alive, be persistent, enthusiastic and hold to the iron rod of positive thought, of astute positive thinking and resolve to help others on their upward climb,on their journey to success as well.

库尔特•李•赫尔利
成功就是由一点一滴的努力,夜以继日地重复累积而成的。——罗伯特•科利尔
成功之途是一条你自己,也只能由你独自走完的道路,这条路既是黄金铺就的,但也荆棘丛生。真正有价值的经验在于学习和获得所有必备的手段,这些手段不仅实践着你的愿望,而且将有助于开发你自身的资源。这些手段将成为你一直拥有也一直需要的资源,将来你也可以用这些资源去帮助别人,使他们像你一样能够取得成功。
要拥有和享受梦想生活,而这种生活又是你力所能及的,第一步就是采取积极而有目的的行动来打破目前常规。因此如果想改变生活,首先要“改变思想”。毋庸置疑!
积极行动起来,现在正值最佳时机。研究准备时,要计划周密,准备充分,做到胸有成竹。不要因优柔寡断而停滞不前。意识到时机已到,就必须采取行动。一旦踌躇犹豫,你就会产生怀疑,继而是逃避,随之就是恐惧。你可能会有遇到困难。是的,你还可能会被拒绝。你还可能会失败,失败是难免的,但也是暂时的。这就是生活。生活的赢家承认,在他们实现愿望的尝试过程中,他们不得不适时进行修正,甚至还会一而再、再而三地修正。成功人士与非成功人士的区别,并不在于是否犯过错误,甚至是否暂时失败了,而在于如何应对失败,能否在每次跌倒之后振作起来,继续前行。
事实上,致力于自我修养和热情助人会使人产生积极的精神状态。暗暗发誓今天做得最好或者过得最好,千万不要为明日之事而忧虑。你可以非常自信地认为美好的事情总会发生。你同样可以自信地认为:即使困难降临,你也有决心、有能力、有方法、有技巧,来应对困难,控制困难,然后战胜困难。性情开朗,坚持不懈,决不允许怀疑的念头磨灭你的梦想。
除非你自己规划或设定生活,否则,环境和经历会为你规划或设定。为了实现梦想,你必须要努力工作,做出牺牲,有所付出,持之以恒,坚韧不拔。做出正确的抉择。只有确定目的地的方位,才能计划旅程。
你是设计自我形象、树立自我观念的雕刻家、艺术大师。是否已经有人取得了你梦想的成就?在各行各业中有你非常敬畏和钦佩的人吗?对他们进行分析,然后做他们所做过的事情,这就叫做复制。复制可以随时随地开始,一直坚持到最后。相信自己和自己的潜力,有挑战自己现有状态的自信。这就是你想要过的生活;这种生活是要一点点、一天天、一步步积累的。
规划你的生活,记录下你的目标。只有百分之三的人会把目标写下来,而仅有百分之一的人会每天回顾这些目标。成为那百分之一的精英中的一员。经常设想你实现目标和达到目的时的情形。目标就是附带着日期的梦想。你会像你所选择的目标那样伟大而快乐的。我再说一遍“做出正确的抉择”……这一点儿势在必行!
成功来之不易。你不得不离开原来的安乐窝,去发掘自己的天赋,开发最大的潜能,准备迎接必然在前方等候你的机遇。你必须战胜恐惧,必然要有心理准备去承担风险,然后战胜风险。尽管在通往成功的旅途上会遇到艰难险阻,但是你必须锁定目标,锲而不舍。
成功不会转瞬即至,也不会轻易获得。取得成功势必要经历痛苦磨练,引发深刻反省。这需要全心全意,需要激情,需要经久不衰的热切渴望。毫无疑问,在你真正取得辛勤耕耘的硕果之前,要花费大量的时间,但是一分耕耘一分收获。相信我!
然而,该如何度过这段磨练时光呢?为了达到目标,这是一个最需要辛苦努力的阶段。在旅途之中会遇到各种逆境,你能顺利度过,便是考验勇气的最好例证。在这个时期,为实现雄心抱负,必需更努力地工作,更深入地发掘,做出更多的牺牲。请记住引力定律:你只会被那种真正反映你所渴望的生活而吸引;只有付出才能有所收获。这便是法则!
那么你应该采取怎样的行动呢?发现现实中的美好之处,因为不管你走到哪儿,这些美好之处就会跟到哪儿;见证生活的积极方面,而不仅仅作为观察者,要积极地验证人生;满怀激情地生活,爱你的家人,爱你的老板,爱你的同事,爱你的朋友,甚至爱陌生人。当然,这绝非易事。尽管如此,拥有坚强的意志力,任何事情——我确实这么认为——都是有可能的。
心态平和是关键。树立远大的梦想,采取积极的行动朝梦想奋进。请记住:每次只走一步。但是,在漫长而又曲折的成功旅途上艰难行进时,要善于忍耐,尽可能保持热情高涨。欣赏你的旅途,毕竟旅途就是生活。最终,你将实现孜孜以求的梦想。始终保持谦逊,谦逊会给你带来丰富而意义深远的奖赏。
行了,到此为止吧。你准备好开始成功之旅了吗?如果准备好了,就带着改进生活的勇气、胆识和愿望启程吧!保持着蓬勃朝气,持之以恒,充满热情,紧紧抓住正确思想的有力杠杆,敏锐而积极地进行思考,并下定决心帮助别人向上攀登,引领他们踏上成功之旅。
