Sometimes it becomes inexplicably
hard to comprehend why some people become very successful whereas in your case
you just find yourself in the same status quo. In some instance, you will even
distinctively notice that those successful people have not acquired the best
education like you.
For instance, one time (about 10
years ago) Steve Jobs, while delivering
a speech at Stanford University stated clearly that he actually never graduated
from the college. Interesting enough, the then CEO of Apple Computers and Pixar
Animation Studios, Steve Jobs had experienced tremendous achievement that has
made him as one of the most successful entrepreneur of 21st century.
The same case happened to the Microsoft Founder Bill Gates who
actually dropped out of Harvard University only to come up with the most
popular Microsoft program that is highly acclaimed worldwide. Infact, it has
become like a basic necessity to anyone who uses a computer. Furthermore, Bill
Gates still remains the richest person on earth with a net worth of over $79.2
Billion by 2015.
As I give these synonymous
examples, there are some critical questions that come out; what was their
driving force that made them successful that you actually don’t have. What
impediments are on your way that hinders you from being successful as them? Actually,
what you need to unravel is to identify what has been pulling you down and
imposing you to utter subduction.
Here are some of such kinds of
obstacles:
1. Doing something that you don’t actually love
This is one thing that could be
derailing you from your success path. Steve Jobs attributed his success to
doing what he loved most. Together with his co-founder Steve Wozniak they
invented Apple at Jobs’ garage which in ten years period, it had employed over
4000 people with an asset worth of $2 billion. Despite being fired from the
company he had started, that did not deter Jobs from doing what he loved and
sure enough he came up with other tech companies (NeXT and Pixar)
2. You could not be grabbing the emerging opportunities
One thing to understand is that
sometimes opportunities present themselves once in a while and once they are
gone they become irreversible. Actually, in your surrounding vicinity, there
could be something vital that is missing yet you could be having the capability
to provide it.
One thing you don’t understand is that once
you tap into such of potential opportunity, it could be a breakthrough to
immeasurable success.
I believe that it is high time you
scrutinize yourself and keenly identify the obstacles that form a wall before
you to reaching the other side of your success. You should never let such
obstacles deny you the chance of being the better person you are meant to be.
Always keep in mind that your success comes from within you!
