The Top 5 Reasons to succeed and why it sucks to be a Loser
It’s always good go succeed. It sucks to fail. Anything in between is just not the real thing, but at least you tried. And that’s where the problem is for most people. They fail to try. Failure to try does not even give you the opportunity to really fail. Actually - “failure to try” is not the right wording. I’d rather should say “too afraid to try” or “too dumb to try”. Don’t take it personal, but that’s what it comes down to. What do you got to lose compared to those who don’t even try, but imagine what you can win?! Worst case scenario is you walk away with more experience and the feeling to know that you tried something that others were afraid of to even consider doing.
What are the Top 5 Reasons to succeed?
1) Success is motivating and enables you to reach for even loftier goals. Success gives you the confidence to go for more and to try things you might have never considered possible for you.
2) Success opens doors. Proven success not only opens doors, but it is also a great tool to do networking with other successful people. Nobody wants to be around losers who do nothing other than complain and to let everyone how unfortunate they are.
3) Success builds the foundation to happiness - no matter how big or small a success is. The feeling of success can carry you through an entire day. And this “spirit” provides you with the ability to become happy, because you suddenly know that if one thing works out that motivational spark can spring walls and add other “ingredients” to your life that make you feel happy. You might have guessed this already, but success and happiness involve a positive state of mind and positive thinking.
4) Wanna get somewhere in life? You better be successful then as otherwise you will be stuck where you are and nothing holds one back more than an environment that is your typical foundation of success. The “Millionaire Next Door” thing does not happen in a slum (unless maybe it is a drug dealer, but …). The wrong address on your business card might get you nowhere other than to the door (eventually with a boot somewhere ….).
5) Don’t you hate it how some people will try to tell you all your life that you are not good enough to succeed? You will lose “all your money if you try this” or “how do you want to get health insurance” or “you are not good enough and you better stay here with us …” and similar crap might sound familiar. These “nay” sayers will try to drag you down to their level of “success” to make sure that you don’t do something they might regret later on.
Don’t surround yourself with yourself if you want to be successful. Find people who already moved up one level of success or more than that. That is the only way to learn and to escape those negative thinking people. Who cares if you lose the money trying? A) you tried and B) money is something you can get back by working for it. A missed opportunity is a missed opportunity and you will have a hard time to get it back and try again.
Why does it suck to be a loser? Ok, are you really asking that question? You know the answer, don’t you. Nobody want’s to be part of the loser club. It’s where the sun never shines and you always find someone who confirms how unfortunate you are. Sure, it feels comfortable if everyone feels sorry for you, but it does not get you anywhere. So, get your lazy ass off the ground and try to be successful.
