The Quickest Way to Attract Success

Success is different for every person, and your definition of it may be very different from mine.

For most people it falls in the line of health, wealth and happiness. There also seems to be a big mystery in how to achieve it. What I wanted to do in this article is provide a failsafe blueprint on how to achieve success in any aspect of life.

There are 4 main steps:

Step 1

Define what you want. It is really easy to think about success in broad terms, but the first thing that anyone should do is define it. Make it as specific as you can. How much money? When do you want to achieve it?

These are the questions you should be applying to any goal you set. It's impossible to run a race without knowing where the finish line is. Make your goals specific, measureable, agreed upon, and time bound.

Step 2

Create a plan. So you know what you want. You know exactly what you want. Now you have to set a plan to achieve it. Make the plan realistic, time bound. When creating a plan, let people know what it is you are committing to.

The more people know about your plans the more you will be compelled to achieve it. Some of the best techniques that I have seen in creating working plans, is to break down large goals into weekly and daily objectives that everyday are moving you forward.

Step 3

Take action. Yeah, you know what you want, and you made a great plan. Now it's time to follow it. Commit to following your plans and make it automatic. If you tell people what you're doing, make sure these are the kind of people that will support you.

One great technique is to write a check out to a friend for a painful amount of money, and get that friend to promise to cash it if you don't follow through. Believe me, pain is a great motivator.

Step 4

Notice if what you're doing is working. You need to pay attention to the process you are going through and at each step you need to notice whether its time to take a different approach.

To do this, you need to be aware to what's going on around you. One of the best sayings I have ever heard was by Peter Drucker "What gets measured, gets managed". You need to measure your results and if they aren't working, you need to change your approach.

A Side NoteThis process is the best process out there for achieving success in any areaof your life, under one condition. You need to be happy with what you are doing. The goals you choose, and the steps you take won't work unless your happiness is in alignment with them.

There may even be times that the steps you take are working, but if your definition of success is not what makes you happy, then it really doesn't matter.
