I would like to invite you on a journey, a wonderful journey. We are all going in the same direction, but we will take different paths. The route is simple but the way is confusing.
Rewards
The rewards are wondrous. Those rewards are available to everyone. But not everyone will enjoy the rewards. Everyone will have the rewards in their hands but many will not recognise them, and they will bemoan their lack of rewards. Other will receive few rewards but consider themselves the luckiest people in the world.
Courage
There will be dangers. The path will have many pitfalls. Most of the corners cannot be seen around, so courage will be needed. At some time, all of you will freeze from fear of the unknown and will cease your journey. Most of you will find that courage and resume the journey. Slowly at first but with greater determination with each step.
Money
There will be money, and plenty of it. Not all of it will end in our pockets. A large sum will be needed to ensure we can continue our journey. But a lot more will stay with us.
Joy
There will be joy. There will be laughter. Many falls are ahead of us. But we will reach fantastic heights. The panorama will always be fabulous.
Face your greatest challenge
And the greatest challenge that will face us will be something, in fact SOMEONE, that we don’t like to face. And for each of you that person will be someone different but it will be the same person. And I have the tool that you will need to ensure you face that challenge. You must face this person and conquer them. Many will not be able to and will fall by the wayside. The bravest of brave will manage to conquer that person and go onto see all the wonders that this world has to offer.
Mirror
The tool you will need is a Mirror. And, yes the person you need to face, the person who is your greatest challenge is YOU. Oh and the journey, that’s the journey of success.
GO Forward
Most will tell you that Success is a destination, but life will tell you it is a journey. Show me the person who has reached his destination and I will show you a corpse. Show me the successful person who has stopped striving to improve themselves, or has stopped striving to attain more and I will show a shadow. A shadow of that persons former self, in fact I will show you a shell, an empty shell.
Success Vs Failure
Where ever you go you will meet successful people. Everyone is successful. We have successful men. We have successful women. And everyone one of you fails; FAILS every day. But every one of you wins, and WINS every day. Success and Failure are not opposites, they are brothers in arms. YOU CANNOT HAVE ONE WITHOUT THE OTHER.
Play to your Strengths
But if you bow down to your failures you will never fly with the birds. Look to your successes not your failures. It is what you are good at that will make you more successful not what you are bad at. Face your strengths and grow stronger.
Strive for Success
If you strive to be better, to get better, to go faster, to earn more money, to be a better person, to be a better leader you are successful.
Control YOUR Future
How successful you are, depends upon only one thing, on one person. It depends upon how successful YOU think you are. It does not matter what I think. Or whatever anybody else thinks. You control your future, no one else.
