8 RESONS WHY SOME PEOPLE STRUGGLE TO SUCCEED
1. They don’t understand the value of time.
Year after year millions of goals are made but never achieved simply because people can’t be bothered putting in the time required to be successful. Time management is a vital skill to become successful. Time is more valuable than money itself.
2. They have self-imposed limitations.
“You are what you are by what you believe” – Oprah Winfrey
Unsuccessful people tend to say things like “I’m just not good at…”, “I just really hate…”, and “I just don’t think I can…”. They put limits on themselves and excuse their behaviour but it’s really just a way of underachieving and aiming low enough to not miss.
3. They are good at making excuses.
These are the people who will find reasons and logic as to why they can’t and why they shouldn’t (but never really try). They sometimes mistake this abhorrent tendency for “just being realistic”.
4. They lack class.
They don’t know how to treat other people and tend to be arrogant, for no apparent reasons most of the time. Saying things like “well at least I’m being honest” or “this is how I am, deal with it”. Being nice and polite to people you like is easy, being nice and polite to someone you cannot tolerate or who you are in constant disagreement with – that is character.
5. They are procrastinators.
“Only put off until tomorrow what you are willing to die having left undone” ― Pablo Picasso
Successful people understand that every day is a gift and you owe it to yourself to do everything you can do in those twenty four hours because nothing’s ever promised today tomorrow.
6. They don’t’ take action.
“Do something today, your future self will thank you for” – Les Brown
The simplicity of this rule of life may be why they disregard the magnitude of its effects. Stop dreaming about what will be, dreams in themselves are not bad but get up, show up and DO something.
7. They can’t face adversity.
“All sunshine and no rain makes a dessert” – Arabian Proverb
Unsuccessful people give up all too quickly because things got uncomfortable, things got a little bit rough, they want roses without the thorns, babies without labour and a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow without bearing the storm. Overcoming challenges not only bring us closer to our goals but they turn us into someone we never imagined existed. Don’t be afraid to conquer fears and to enter new territory, step out of your comfort zone and challenge yourself. In the midst of adversity courage is born.
8. They are apathetic.
Apathy is a silent killer. Find something that you are passionate about, even if you don’t get paid for it. Put your gift to use
