The 10 Universal Principles of Success

@Varunraj Kalse

Success is not something only a select few can achieve. Everyone can be successful in all areas of life. You just need to know how to be successful every time.

Success comes as a result of forming and maintaining certain habits. Consistency is key. To be successful, you have to be a certain type of person. 

Do not be discouraged if you are not yet that person. With practice, anyone can become a successful person. 

Successful people think certain ways, speak certain ways, and act certain ways. The list below summarizes 10 of these methods (bonus tip!).

Anyone who consistently applies this principle in all areas of their life will *succeed* in that area.

Vision:

You have a clear vision of what you want to achieve or become. Always keep this picture in mind. By doing what you want to do because you want to do it, you motivate yourself to succeed. Start with the end in mind.

Faith:

Never doubt that you can do it. Believe that you will succeed. Believe in higher powers to get what you want. Stay away from negative influences (people, books/articles, anything negative) that make you doubt your chances of success. Surround yourself with things that remind you that you can and will succeed.

Responsibility:

Realize that only you are responsible for your future. You are solely responsible for the results of your efforts. Don’t look for anyone to criticize. Remember, you can always ask for help if you need it, but the final decision is yours. After all, this is your life.

Affirmation:

Get in the habit of saying out loud what you want to achieve. Say “I’m fit and fit” in the present tense instead of “I’m fit and fit.” If you feel uncomfortable talking to yourself out loud, write a confirmation letter. Then review (or better rewrite) several times a day. This will help your mind to focus on the goal. It also strengthens self-confidence and self-confidence.

Commitment:

Make a firm commitment to action. Decide on steps that will help you achieve your goals. Then do your duty. Too often we are prone to fulfill our obligations to others while neglecting our obligations to ourselves. To be successful in life, this pattern must change.

SMART Goal Setting: 

Now that you know what you want to achieve or become, you need to define it by setting it as a goal. Your goals must be specific and measurable (you need standards to help you understand when you have achieved them), motivating (which should inspire and keep you motivated), and be achievable, engaging and realistic (It makes no sense to set unrealistic goals. ).

Examples: 

“I want to be a millionaire tonight”) and “Time” (indicate when you wish to achieve this)Planning and Execution: Develop an action plan. Break your plan into small steps. Remind yourself that by taking one or two steps each day, each step brings you closer to your goal. Do your best in each action filled with faith, determination, and will to achieve your goals. The most important thing is consistency.

Patience:

Don’t give up until you get what you want. In the process, make changes to the parts of your plan that don’t work and be prepared to try something else. Thomas Edison did not give up his ambitions to invent the light bulb, despite 10,000 “failures”. That’s patience! Treat every failure as a stepping stone to success and a temporary setback. Learn in this class and achieve your goals.

Gratitude:

Be grateful that your dream will soon become a reality. Don’t complain when things look different. Refuse to complain. Be grateful for where you are now and where you are going. Find something to be grateful for. You’ll be surprised if you find quite a few.

Be a giver:

Always think about what you can do for the other person in your relationship. What goes around comes back. After all, every dream you have is most likely related to your interactions with other people. Be kind and generous to everyone. You never know where your breakthrough will come from.

Bonus Principle:

Stay Up-to-Date:

Get all the information you can about your situation/goals. Read books, listen to tapes, and talk to experts, no matter what. This will help you make smart decisions and stay confident.
That’s right. I have provided a summary of the principles that will guarantee your success in any endeavor if you apply them consistently. But don’t believe me. Prove it for yourself by applying it to real life situations.
Knowledge has no power until you put what you know into action. Think about it. Better yet, take action! You will be delighted.
