Winners Never Quit

"A goal properly set is halfway reached." - Abraham Lincoln

Almost everyone wants to become successful in their life pursuits. Yet, success does not come as easily as people in general prefer it to and not many people have the success principles to succeed. One of the prices that one has to pay is learn about success principles. This article is going to provide you 3 fundamental success principles that you should learn and adhere if you want to be successful in what you do.

Sounds simple, right?

1. Love

Love is the first success principle because almost everything that has ever happened in this world is because of love. Without love, there is surely no single life on this earth. Love creates human beings who continue to create many other things because of their love.

"Do what you love and love what you do" is what successful people almost always tell their followers who thrive to become successful too.

2. Persistence

Persistence is another success principle which teaches us not to quit when thing gets tough and also reminds us to have a tougher mindset than the toughness of the job we work on. Dr. Robert H. Schuller puts this best in the title of his best-selling book "Tough times never last, but tough people do".

Persistence is somehow related to and could be intensified by the first success principle called 'love'. With strong love comes high persistence and commitment. For instance, a friend of mine Joe has discovered his love in body-building. Second, you need a specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, time-bound goal. A SMART goal helps you fight against the sense of quitting that keeps haunting you. That thing should relate to your goal or that somebody should talk about your goal.

3. Consistency

The third success principle is consistency which is pretty much about regularity. Success does not come overnight except for winning lottery or inheriting money. Unfortunately, not many people can give such efforts, which is the reason that there are few successful people living in this world.

Success is more like accumulation than achievement, process than product. Day by day, he has saved his muscles from small to big size called success.

There is almost no one push that guarantees the result, but if you push often enough, many or all the pushes will yield results that you can reap.

All in all, stick to your goal; unless you have achieved it, you must not quit because quitters never win and winners never quit.

4. Dream

Dream is one of the most essential success principles because dream is one of the foundations of success. Without dream, success is almost impossible. For instance, The Wright Brothers dreamed of having an airplane which had not existed in their generation.

To have a dream is like to begin searching for success because your dream is your success. So, what is

your dream? Dreams don't die; you will get them back.

To have a dream is good, but to have a burning dream is much better. Burning dreams could be seen in people who have turned their life in 360-degree manner. A guy who has lived in poverty has a big dream to live his life in abundance. A bad child usually has a burning dream to make their parents proud.

5. Goal

There are so many definitions and explanations about goal, and one the easiest is that goal is a dream with a deadline. There are two types of goal--long-term and short-term. Both types of the goal are conditioned by time. Some long-term goals could be 10 years, 20 years or even a life time while short-term goals could be a month, week, or day. People are adept at setting goals usually make their short-term and long-term goals consistent with one another so they can stay focused on one track.

Setting goals is crucially important, and there are definitely so many goal-setting approaches all of which center on the SMART characteristics. SMART is the abbreviation of Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and Time-bound.

6. Action plan

Action plan is a schedule of daily activities to which you adhere in order to achieve your goal or realize your dream. A goal is a goal and will never be realized unless there are some activities taken on a regular basis.

There are so many people who like to set goals but cannot achieve them because they fail to design action plan to execute. Action plan is just a list of activities that you can do to get your goal. For example, if your goal is to get big muscles, your action plan could compose of activities such as going to gyms on a daily or weekly basis, living on a diet, consuming healthy food, and etc.

Activities that you do regularly determine whether you succeed or fail. So you should set not only your goals but also those activities. Monitor them well before they get overwhelming.

YOU CAN DO IT. YOU CAN BE IT, YOU CAN HAVE IT. So, NEVER QUIT.
