Discover the Secret Steps to Success Part 3 of 4

By: Dave Clocker

The road to success is coming together so far in this series as I’ve explained to you the one blog I came across that had such a profound impact on my life. The blog was very simple indeed, mainly black text on a white background. There was nothing present in it that distinguished it from the millions of blog entries out there. However, after reading the blog, it had an incredible transformation in my life. In applying the lessons, I began to notice fascinating differences in how my life metamorphosed.
So let’s dive into it! The second rung of the ladder of success is that you gotta take action and be a starter to achieve success. George stated that business is out in the field, not in the office. How true that is. Let me use a sports analogy to illustrate this. We’ll look at a Rookie who just joined the NBA. In basketball, you can be a bench warmer for only so long. The key to success, though, is to become a starter (this applies to our business as well...a starter). Only with that will we ever learn the ropes of the game and move up to the level of stardom. To key is to keep moving and to keep striving for the focused end result.
An example of a rookie is Jamario Moon from the Toronto Raptors. He is a 1st year player for the 2007-2008 season. An old rookie, for that matter, as he is 27 years old, in a sport where players usually start out in their teens. He started out the season as a bench warmer...not doing much. He strongly felt in his mind that he was a player who could offer great contributions to his team, so he practiced diligently each day.
It was just after a few games that he got called onto the courts during a game. And guess what? He performed. The next several games, he did the same thing. Pretty soon, he had secured for himself a starter position on the team. Yes, a STARTER. The fact that he become a started is a large accomplishment for the rookie, considering that there are only 5 players out of the team of 12 who can take on that role. Failure was not an option for him and he wouldn't accept it. There were rookies 10 years younger than him. Because he kept at it every day in practice and he had the proper mindset and belief system, he didn’t have hesitation or doubt about his ability to perform. He practiced to reach a purpose and a goal.
You may be wondering how this Rookie story relates to the message from George’s blog. The moral of the Rookie story is that you should not sit and wait for things to happen. Hoping for business to come is not a sure way to achieve success. Some may have found success doing that, but it does not apply to the majority. You are the master of your own life. If you aren't, then no one else will get you where you want to go. You must practice, practice, practice. You must practice to reach a purpose and goal.
They always say that the best way to eat an elephant is one bite at a time, so practice your skills each day. You have to have that burning passion to keep moving forward. Just make sure you dedicate a fair share of time daily to work on your business that will generate you money. It was concisely stated by George that you need to take the little actions each day that are focused on getting results from your business and avoid the activity that doesn’t get results. Let me reiterate that. If it ain't broken, don't fix it. If it is broken, go fix it.
So ask yourself the question: Are you ready to take the action to achieve your goals in life? If you want something badly enough, you will change your actions and focus only on the important activities that work to get you where you want to go. You’ve come a long way in this article series. In the last part, you will discover the factors that will help you to achieve incredible accomplishments over the long term.
