Most individuals desire achievement in some area of their life. It is part of the human condition that we are geared to want to achieve success. A scarcity of fulfillment in our lives makes us feel inadequate, gives us a feeling of under-achievement. It is like we are not making most effective use of the gifts with which we are born.
The actual reason why so many folks fail to gain as much success as they might like in their lives is that they aren't adequately focussed on what they need. They haven't any clear idea of what they actually want. Don't blame folk for this lack. It can be difficult to find one's real goal in life, to get a sense of who you are.
As an NLP Practitioner and Business Coach I spend a lot of time with my clients helping them to focus on who they are. Finding out who you are is the secret to success. Once you have a sense of who you are it permits you to do things that are significant to you and then you get that sense of success.
So , how do you find out who you really are? You already know your name and what you do, but they only partly define who you are. The real need is to find out the unique way that you do everything that you do. It's your values, beliefs, capacities and behaviour that define who you are. Hence what do you believe in, what do you place a value on in life and what do you do well? Even the things that you do badly define you if you always do them in the same way.
You can say that the cornerstone to success is your ability to know yourself and to clearly understand what you bring to the party. Your capabilities can be that you are a good conversationalist, that you smile readily, that you ask outstanding questions, that you make people feel good about themselves, that you're attentive to the requirements of others. You see it does not have to be anything huge that makes you successful.
My chum James, who became Ceo of a giant concern when still in his thirties told me once that he suspected the cause of his success was that so many people liked him. "Being liked implies that folk trust me," he said. If you can be trusted to deliver what you say you will deliver you will be successful.
