How to Make Your Success INEVITABLE!

 

Do you ever get frustrated when going after your dreams?

Have you ever felt like your goals and dreams just won’t happen and consider giving up on them?

 

I’ve been there! And I get it! Sometimes we can get pretty frustrated and disappointed on our road to our dreams.

 

However, I’ve discovered something VERY UNIQUE that gave me confidence to achieve my goals. As a matter of fact…there is almost an inevitability and predictability to your success. Yes…I said the word ‘Inevitable’! There is a way to nearly guarantee and secure the accomplishment of your future goal!

 

OUR CHALLENGE:

Typically, the way many of us see our goals as being far away, far removed, and separate from us. Therefore, we ‘go after’ our goals. It becomes an arduous struggle to get to a place or become a person that we don’t ultimately believe is who we are. So the pursuit of our goals includes a lot of stress and struggle because the internal belief of who we believe we are is completely different that who we want to become. Therefore, any challenge along the way toward our goal, actually confirms in our own mind that we ARE who we currently are, and NOT who we want to become.

 

The Result? Stress and a lack of achievement of our goals.

 

OUR SOLUTION:

However, what I’ve seen is that it’s actually more of a difference in mindset and perception that prevents us from achievement. The reality is that it’s not so much that we are far from our goals but that the way we see ourselves relative to the goals doesn’t help us achieve it.

 

There is a difference between…

 

Working FROM Success vs Working FOR Success

 

Working from Success says…

  • I AM, therefore it’s simply a matter of time
  • I AM an expression of who I believe I am, which is the person that is connected to the achievement of my goal
  • IT IS inevitable…I just have to continue working

 

You have to BE it…before you SEE it!

 

Working for Success says…

  • I’m not, I’m trying to become
  • I need to achieve the goal to prove and validate that I am the person I’m trying to become
  • I don’t know if it’s really going to happen

 

Think about a seed of an apple, and it’s inevitable future…an apple.

  • The seed of an apple…when planted will inevitably be an apple

Think about a caterpillar, and it’s inevitable future…a butterfly.

  • The caterpillar…when in the right environment will inevitably be a butterfly

THIS IS WORKING FROM SUCCESS!

 

Working FOR success is taking an unknown seed….planting it and hoping it turns into an apple.

Working FOR success is taking an inchworm and hoping it turns eventually into a butterfly

 

You inevitably develop into who you believe yourself to be!!

 

ACTION STEPS:

How to work FROM Success: (Think about a planting a seed)

  1. Define the seed.
    1. Who are you? Connect ‘who you are’ to your person who is connected to the achievement of your goal. You ARE NOW CURRENTLY MENTALLY the person who has accomplished your goal.
  2. Cultivate the seed. Place it in good soil.
    1. Place yourself in the right environment
      1. People: What kind of people are around you to help you be your best self. Encouraging and supportive people. People who can coach and guide you.
      2. Settings: Are you in the right places that are putting you in position to succeed?
    2. Water the seed.
      1. Consistent watering: Active pouring into yourself!
        1. Audios and Books: What books and audios are you consistently listening to?? I encourage you to ALWAYS be reading or listening to something that is strengthening your mind, faith, or knowledge.
      2. Expose it to the light.
        1. Expose that goal to God, aka…The Light
          1. Bring your goal to God! Discuss it with him. Include him into your goals and dreams
            1. This provides discernment and clarity on what decisions to make
            2. Relationship with God provides fulfillment. This way you don’t feel like you are IN NEED of your goal to be happy. You can pursue it with no pressure.
          2. Believe & Trust in God for the transformation & increase
            1. We can only plant the seed, cultivate, water it and put it into the light. However, the actual transformation is up to God…not YOU! Do what you can do, and let God do the rest! You are NOT responsible for the transformation…you are responsible for being obedient to YOUR PART (Steps 1-4 above)
