8 Reasons Why Becoming

Successful is NOT Convenient

Why would someone say, "Becoming successful is not convenient"?

After all we all seem to want to be successful, don't we? Well, here are 8 reasons why it is not convenient.

1. There is a cost to becoming successful. Opportunity costs

are what you give up in return to do something higher up on

the internal meter. You have one thing that is good and fun to

do by itself, but if you choose to work on yourself or a

business, you are giving up that fun thing to do the work.

Now let's look at a real world example. It's 8:00 a.m. on

Saturday morning and you are working on your opportunity

or business or catching up with your family time. A very

good friend of yours calls and says, "Let's go to the gun

range, today". You love going to the range, but you haven’t

spent time with your family or have several important calls

to make for your business. Successful people make these

sacrifices daily because they see the value in the future.

2. Successful people do not get successful working 9 a.m. to 5

p.m. They work 12, 14, 17 hours a day. They love what they

are doing, so it's not work. Work after all is desiring to be

someplace else while you are working. If you love what you

are doing, you do not desire to be someplace else (make

sense?).

p.m. They work 12, 14, 17 hours a day. They love what they

are doing, so it's not work. Work after all is desiring to be

someplace else while you are working. If you love what you

are doing, you do not desire to be someplace else (make

sense?).

4. Successful people very seldom make it big trading time for

money. They learn how to leverage their time. This could

come from investing (having your money work for you) or

through something as simple as network marketing. Learning

how to maximize your results from your efforts is key to

your success, no matter what the field.

5. Successful people do not follow the herd. They have a vision

and step-by-step they start to achieve it. Walt Disney founded

Disney World but it wasn't huge until after his death.

Someone told his son one day, “Too bad your dad wasn't alive

to see this.” He replied, "He saw it first."

6. Successful people are open-minded. They are always looking

for a better way to do something. They might go to a seminar

and say, "if I learn just one thing today it will be worth it".

7. Successful people surround themselves with positive minded

and talented people. This might include changing or

alternating peer groups. It is essential to your future to be

around people that support and encourage your vision of

success. If you aren’t, you are likely getting discouragement

instead.

8. Successful people see an idea and act on it very quickly. Then

move mountains to get it accomplished. The words “I can't”

are not in their vocabulary. They don’t fear failure, but rather

know it can happen and expect to learn from it if it does.

Each one of these 8 reasons will cause a disruption to your daily

life in some way for at least a little while. But keeping a normal

life is what got you where you are. If you want to be somewhere

else, you need to do a little disruption now and then.
