Embracing The Art Of Successful Living - Do You Have What It Takes?

What is the art of successful living? The art of successful living, for those not in the know is the ability and uncanny way that some people are able to just attract success and opportunity to their doors. We call it the ‘luck of the devil’ or even other ideograms that seem to describe someone who is born lucky and nothing seems to be able to go wrong with what they do. They are King Midas, a leprechaun, Don Juan Demarco and Donald Trump wrapped in a low fat tortilla wrap. You look at these people, dressed in their sharp suits and winning smiles and you think you want to start embracing the art of successful living. Do you have what it takes?

It is hard work and if we don’t have a natural compulsion to be successful then it will be an uphill climb for anyone. It is a militaristic, strategy that attacks each and every point of negativity and failure in someone’s persona, their attitudes, their behaviours and even down to how they think. If you ever thought that it would be easy to just one day wake up and see the butterflies and roses in your life then think again. You need to be a fighting machine, thrown to the dogs and climb the highest peaks of your character defects to reach the level of success that you want to have in your life at all times.

Let’s not even start talking about the fact that you have to learn new things. You have to be open to the idea to the fact that you have to change what clothes you wear. Because image is important. You might have to change the way you speak because intonation, voice character and smoothness are all foundations of how you dazzle people with your speech. You must resist the idea of retaining even a part of you that is negative, even down to how you write and shattering the effects of emotional inertia.

You have to live your dreams and I mean you must look in the mirror everyday until you cannot recognise the person you are looking at into the mirror. Who is this person that is smiling at you, dressed so well, with an easy confident smile, well groomed looks and a glow that comes from within?

This glow is the ambition, the drive and the new energy that has come into your life. That is the art of successful living and you must ask yourself if you have what it takes for this transformation. Are you even ready to become this other person that even your closest friends cannot recognise at all? Can you let go of the past and leave it behind, even the failures that seem to dog at you and remind you and hold you back?

Don’t be afraid at all when it comes to change because the power of change cannot be measured in any terms. Live successfully. Change yourself.
