“People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don’t believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they can’t find them, make them.” – George Bernard Shaw
It’s easy to say, ‘Stuff just happens.’ That is not a line made by successful people. To be successful you have to create the circumstances that will give you an upper hand to success. Here is how to create the circumstances;
Be 100% responsible
To succeed in life, you have to realize and accept total control over what happens to you. Everything that has happened to you has done so because you permitted it to. Stop blaming people, the weather and other things for the on-goings in your life. Do not permit circumstances that you do not like to materialize in your life.
Unlearn
There are plenty of myths to believe if you decide to. Most of them however are only negative. People will tell you;
‘You are too young to do that.’
‘Our family does not succeed in business.’
‘That’s impossible.’
All those things are not true. You can be who you want to be as long as you set your heart to it. Decide to replace all the negative lines you have been told with positive ones. The power of belief cannot be underestimated.
Always have the facts right
Evidence based actions guarantee success. Have your facts right before you embark on anything. For a certain amount of input, you should be able to determine your output. Know the risks involved so that you can have a risk mitigation strategy in place.
Make the right decisions
Every single decision you make gets you closer to or farther from your success. By continuously making and taking the right decisions your success is guaranteed.
Conclusion
Circumstances only reveal your choices. Making the right choices on a daily basis will help you create your desired circumstances for success.
