Steps to improve levels of personal success
We will start with the foundation and work our way up:
1. Personal
Our foundation for success is based on the key elements that make us are or who we want to be.
Areas such as:• Values• Morals• Ethics• Standards• Principles• Character
All of these have significant role to play in either helping us identify who we are and what we are about, or they become a guidance mechanism towards what we should do & how we should do it.
These elements help identify who we are, what we stand for & what we are prepared to stand up against. Without them our success or future will have no significant foundation from which to grow.
2. Technical
With each & every aspect of life there is a certain skill set that will be necessary to see our success eventuate. Obviously the element of experience will have significant impact. Both general life experience & specific experience related to what we are pursuing. The great thing about experience, is that it is work in motion and that motion can either be slowed or accelerated, depending on the person involved & their desire to increase their levels of experience.
Other technical factors could include:• Skills• Knowledge• Ability• Aptitude
3. Knowledge
Knowledge is a very broad subject as like experience, there is both specific & general knowledge. But for the perspective of developing success, your knowledge should be based around the areas of:• Direction• Goals• Understanding• Expectation• Resource
4. Vision
The elements of vision once again can be diverse, with each having a significant role in the development of your success. And although similar in some respects, there are also some differences that make each area equally important.
Aspects such as:• Visualization• Imagery• Insight• Awareness
5. Psychology
Its about place in performance, motivation as a critical component, there are other components that are equally important.
Areas such as:• Attitude• Mindset• Belief
6. Resolve
There will be times when we would question the goals that we have set for ourselves, we question our ability, ponder the price we have to pay to see our success realized & it is at these times, when we will need a set of qualities that highlight our level of personal resolve.
Qualities such as:• Focus• Attention• Concentration• Application
7. Obedience
The next is the skill of obedience.
And when I say obedience I say it in the context of:• Discipline• Commitment• Dedication• Perseverance
8. Emotional Control
The last rung on the ladder of success is the skill of emotional control. The ability to deal with external factors that if we allow them, can & will have a huge negative impact on us & therefore, our ability to reach the levels of success we are pursuing.
When we think about the areas of emotional control we should consider start with these:• Fear• Anxiety• Conflict• Obstacles
Obviously, there are many more considerations we should contemplate as we go about developing our levels of success.
