That's what Dale Odeyemi says in his article
about success.
His other success secrets include...
Aligning
yourself with other successful people, and
Acquiring the necessary
skills and knowledge
And who could argue with Dale?
The thing
is, though, there is not just one recipe for
success, and that's why this page also features a short video by Deepak Chopra
called The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success - I hope you enjoy it.
It's
funny as I feel completely unqualified to talk about the laws of success.
I
mean, I'm not successful - am I?
I'm sure you probably think
that too, about yourself; think that you have to be seen on one of those YouTube
videos dropping sound-bites about success in front of a paying (and whooping)
audience to be considered a success!
Well that's not true. We are all successful,
in varying ways. We all know what works and what doesn't work. Deep down, we know,
anyway. Just because many others have succeeded in doing what you can do - e.g.
develop computer skills and literacy skills; have a thirst for knowledge and self-understanding
- does not mean that you too are not a success.
Did you know, for example,
that there are estimated to be 8 million millionaires in USA alone. Are these
people successful or are there 'too many' millionaires for it to be now considered
a success? Think about it.
So that's why I agree with Dale's success
principles and why I can also state my own - the ones that have worked for
me.
So my laws of success (off the top of my head) are:
Have your own dreams and your own ways of doing things
Keep on learning,
learning, learning
Make mistakes, and allow yourself to be wrong
Never
quit, but realise that 'not quitting' might mean starting again
Make you
set goals, but goals that really matter to you!
Recognise
your achievements and success along the journey. Success is not a destination!
The
thing is I AM successful, I'm just not a millionaire! But then I never wanted
to be a millionaire, I simply wanted to:
Work for myself, and
Make time to do other, more interesting things, whilst
Earning
'enough' money.
And I've been working in such a job, more or less,
since 2001. However, it's only in the last few years that I have realised how
successful I am already. :-)
How about you? You're looking for some success secrets
or principles right now, but do you realise how much you have already achieved
in this life? Do you, really? It would be great if you thought about this, for
a moment or two, and then got in touch with your success
story!
The Law of Success And How Do You Use
This?
Laws of success - what Dale Odeyemi says...
If you are striving
to be successful in life, then there are a few things you should learn about the
law of success. Once you learn these laws and put them into action, you will notice
things start to change drastically.
Read on to discover the three main laws
of success...
The first law of success is to take full responsibility
for your actions. You need to realize that you cannot change the actions of other
people but you can change your own actions. Learning to be responsible for every
action you take is the first step and a very important step on your way to success.
Another
very important law of success is to align yourself with successful people.
If you continue to hang out with negative people that are consistently blaming
others for their problems, you will never be able to rise above the negativity
and become successful yourself.
Find someone who has been very successful
in life and study them. Learn their philosophies and their habits. Take note of
what they talk about and the books that they read. Get inside their head to learn
how they think. When you learn the habits and rules of successful people you will
be able to implement them for yourself.
The third law of success is
to acquire the knowledge and skills that you need to be successful. Then when
you acquire these skills maintain the right attitude. Do not allow your knowledge
to go to your head and never think that you are better than other people because
you have risen above the rest.
Keep the attitude that there is always more
to learn and that the way to be really successful is to be willing to help other
people make their lives better. Be willing to give back and always be grateful
for what you have achieved. Be thankful for the things that you have acquired
and the fact that you have been able to work hard and make your life successful.
Memorize
These Laws of Success
Use them every day and constantly work on improving
yourself. Never forget to give back and to help others become successful. The
more you give the more you will receive. What is success without the feeling of
satisfaction that you have returned the favor? What good is money if you can't
use it to make lives better for the less fortunate than you?
Just remember
that you only live once. Use the laws of success and one day you will be able
to look back on your life and realize that you have lived it to the fullest. You
will have no regrets.

Chopra has written a book called The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success and this
2 minute video briefly explains his seven laws. In the video, Deepak says this:
"Everything that is happening in this moment is the result of all the choices
that you have made mentally in the past". Scary, eh! - Don't
you think? (Or is it empowering?)
