This week’s lesson is “No One Drifts to Success”.
There is a simple question that you can ask any successful person and there is no doubt they will have a quick, decisive answer.
“What is your one definite purpose in life – and what plans have you made to attain it?”
I have no doubt that every single successful person that you encounter with that question will gladly give you their answer. Why, because they have spent years, months, days, hours, minutes refining that simple question. And it is the answer to that question that drives them.
So I ask you. What is your one definite purpose in life? This is the first week in your 52 Steps to Achieving Life’s Rewards.
The answer to this question will define your success. I don’t want to hear, “I’d like to make a good living and be happy.” Everyone wants that!
I want you to dig deep. I want you to ask yourself this week, “why do I do what I do?”
Why do you want to make more money? Why do you want to have more time? What do you REALLY want to be doing? After you have answered these questions make a goal that defines your success.
In the words of Napoleon Hill, “If you want to achieve success, make today the day you stop drifting. Decide upon a definite goal. Write it down. Commit it to memory. Decide exactly how you plan to achieve it. then begin by putting the plan into action immediately.”
No one drifts to success! Stop drifting…start planning.
This is a series of posts based on Napoleon Hill’s book, A Year Of Growing Rich. This exercise is all about personal development and wealth creation and is designed to help move you from inspiration to application — putting skills into action to succeed in life!
