Thursday's BOLD LAW ... " Success is simple , not easy "
The lure of immediate gratification for instant success is very powerful. " How can I get that ? "..." What can I copy to get it ? "..." How fast can I get that ? "...These are common questions people ask about success. The old adage " If it were easy , everyone would have it " is so true. Everybody wants it, especially the easy part, but few are willing to copy the work that goes into that success.
We may all want to play a guitar or sing like our favorite rock star, climb Mt. Everest , play like a concert pianist , be a famous motivational speaker or swing a golf club or tennis racquet like a professional but, there are very few people who will put in the work, practice the ten thousand hours with no pay off , and experience lots of boring drudgery that it begins to take to be a success.
Success is hard work...simple but not easy..
There is no such thing as an overnight success.
They worked hard at their craft for a long time ! They followed clues that other successful people laid ahead of them. As one of my mentors Tim Wood always said , " They remembered their own definition of success for themselves , not someone else's definition of success for them ! "
Simply do today what it takes to get there in the future....do it today...do it again tomorrow...and the day after that and so on and so on. Because of the compound interest effect , one day , you can find yourself there at your goal....and you'll be considered by others who are not willing to put in the work an " Over night success ! "
Success is simple , not easy !
