The biggest little word in the English language is the word if.
There are three ifs that directly affect your future success. Yet most
people focus on the wrong ifs and are less successful because of it.
The
strategies of success you use have a focus. Do you focus on the If's of
the past or the If's of the future? Your focus determines your ultimate
success. Understanding the three future ifs will unveil the mysterious
process whereby the mega successful build future success and prepare you
for a brighter tomorrow.
Many people focus on past ifs associated
with regrets over mistakes or missed opportunities. These can be called
If only's. If only... then I would have; If only I could have..., If
only... I should have... Overly focusing on the past will not build
future success. Don't let your past chain you to an unsuccessful future.
Instead
focus on the three ifs that will build future success. Realize as
Rodolph Steiner did that life is a journey not a destination. Man is not
a being who stands still, he is a being in the process of becoming. The
more he enables himself to become, the more he fulfills his true
mission.
No matter what your dreams and goals they are inevitably
driven by ambition, drive and determination. These are the uniquely
human energies, feelings and emotions that prime your efforts and shape
your achievements and directions. The mysterious process whereby
great men and women emerge, often from obscurity, to the pinnacles of
success need not be so mysterious. Do achievers make history, or does
history make achievers? The answer is yes! Both have a degree of
influence in a person's ultimate success.
It is always a
combination of both internal strategies of success and external factors
that determine the ultimate height to which people are able to build
future success.
However, without the internal factors working
effectively, external factors and opportunities are often underutilized
or not even recognized at all. Causing many people to fail to act in
time to take advantage of passing opportunities. Fear, uncertainty, lack
of preparation or lack of determination, will and drive can all allow
opportunities to quietly slip away-unnoticed or underutilized. The
biggest little word in the English language is the word if. Ask
yourself if you have done everything possible to maximize your internal
strategies of success in order to take advantage of external
opportunities that will come your way.
What are the three mysterious future ifs that will ultimately determine your destiny?
•
If you have the talent and the training. Work now to maximize your
talents and abilities so you will be ready when opportunity knocks.
•
If you are in the right place at the right time and are able to see and
seize the fickle finger of fate before it vanishes. You must be able to
spot and seize the opportunities needed to build the success you
desire. It you can't find the opportunities then create them. The harder
you work the more likely fate will swing your way.
• If you have
the inner drive, ambition and determination to succeed. You need to find
the spark that lights your fire. External goals and circumstances can
be a spark but the fire must come from within.
Those that can tap
into and utilize all three future ifs, constantly over time, will not
only maximize their success now but will be more likely to continue to
hold on to success in the future. This strategy of success allows you to
build one success on top of another.
Utilizing these three ifs is
how many great achievers spring from obscurity. And often their obscure
background is what galvanizes their ambition and determination to
succeed. Today, success often rises and falls at the speed of light.
Mass
media can flashes images of individuals around the world bringing
instant international notoriety and fame, or sometimes infamy and shame.
Just as allusively, its bright lights focus the world's attention
elsewhere making continued success more fleeting and much more
conditional on circumstances that lie outside our control.
If the
strategy of success you use include these future If's and not the if
only's of the past you will have a brighter future and the mysterious
fickle finger of fate will more likely swing your way.
