Overcome The Barriers To Success

Overcome The Barriers To Success
21.01.2016 LISTEN

We all have aspirations. We want a life that is exciting and fulfilling. We want to make a difference in the lives of others. Unfortunately it is not everybody who knows the way to achieve the awesome life we desire and think we deserve.

Some people are their own worst enemies. Their behavior is always a self-defeating one. They sabotage their own efforts by the way they think, feel and act.

Take the case of someone who wants to drive a car with the brakes on. This car will not move because the brakes are on. If the driver accelerates, the car may break down.

This analogy can be applied to real life situations. Some people want to make progress but do not see any results because their behavior sabotages their efforts. They go through life with their emotional brakes on.

Our emotional brakes are all the things we do that prevent us from achieving our goals and purposes in life. They include our self-limiting beliefs, self-doubts, procrastination, our unwillingness to take risks, lack of preparation, lack of planning, lack of courage, lack of persistence, lack of vision, lack of knowledge, lack of discipline, a lack of understanding of how the laws of nature work, low self-esteem, lack of priorities, instant gratification, fear of failure, fear of success, fear of the unknown, our inability to recognize opportunities, and last but not least our inability to utilize our natural endowments such as talent and skills.

The sad aspect of the situation is that some people do not even realize that the aforementioned factors are the barriers to their progress in life. We should be able to take steps to overcome our self-defeating behavior.

We should follow the rules of success. We should build a positive attitude and high self-esteem and accept responsibility for everything that is happening in our life.

We should always think of being winners and not losers. We should assess our strengths and weaknesses and improve upon our capabilities.

We should learn from the mistakes of others. Get mentors and learn from them.

If you want to be successful, associate with successful people. Find out what strategies they used and apply same to get ahead in life.

Think long term and set inspiring goals. Plan how to reach your goals and pursue that until you have hit your targets.

Be very well disciplined and never compromise your integrity.

There are no quick fixes in life. Don’t become a victim of scammers. Plan and pay the price upfront in order to achieve your dream life.

Work with a deep conviction to succeed. Keep the larger picture in mind and work diligently to advance your chances of success.

To change things in your life, change the way you think. Think positively. Be an optimist. Your mindset should be one of success and not defeat.

Be a prayerful person. Connect with the Great Spirit. Ask God for guidance in everything you do. Believe in yourself and believe in God. Bible says, “With God all things are possible.”

In conclusion, success is for everyone including you. It is your birthright, go for it.

Yours in inspiration,
