What-Count Factors for Success in Life and Business.
There is arguably nothing that is sweeter in this world than success. There is a joy which cannot be explained, that comes from birthing a great dream. Everyone dreams whether they know it or not, but not everyone actualizes their dreams. So, what is the difference between those who often experience that joy of fulfilment and those who scarcely do? What attitudes and habits distinguish achievers from non-achievers?
The fact is that, if you learn and do what great achievers know and do, you will also achieve great things - whether good or bad. In life, some people make things happen while others merely watch and probably report what is happening. So, let’s take a quick look at some attributes of those who make things happen rather than just watch or report what’s happening.
Enhance Your Mental Powers
There is something fascinating about a person who has been able to develop his mental powers to be able to operate like a smooth-running machinery. Such a person is able to dispatch his work precisely on schedule, turn promptly from one problem to the next, and concentrate completely on each.
Decision Making
To constantly move to the next level in career, business and ministry, you must master the art of sound decision making. The average adult makes more than 35,000 decisions in a day- most of them by reflex actions rather than by proper choice. While the vast majority of these decisions may appear trivial, the truth is that every decision we make has an impact on our future.
Creative Problem Solving
Problem solving is a life skill. It is one of the transversal skills identified by UNESCO-UNEVOC. It is also recognised as one of the important future skills for the next generation. Irrespective of your profession or vocation, you will succeed in large part to the extent of your ability to solve problems. Knowledge alone is no longer a source of personal advantage. The internet has levelled that playing field forever.
Priority Setting
To make progress in business and life, you need to get your priorities right. It is very important for you to be working on the right goals and tasks at the right time.
Just Do It – An Intense Bias for Timely Action
The first component of making progress in life is to be clear in your mind about the way forward. But after being sure of the way forward, the next important component is to actually make that move. You may be the one delaying your own success. Usually, nothing moves around you until you move. For actions to be effective, they must be carried out at the right time, because the premises for those actions are often not static.
Courage
To make progress in life, career, business or ministry, you need courage. A mirage is an optical illusion caused by atmospheric conditions, like an appearance of a body of water on a hot road. To move forward, you must be ready to encounter several false or exaggerated appearances of danger or obstruction. But that is exactly what they are - appearances!
Working Effectively with Others
One of the essential skills for productivity and progress is the ability to work effectively with other people. Nobody succeeds alone. One person may have the information, idea, capital, contacts etc, but other people will ultimately be needed to make the idea become a reality. To succeed, a person needs to be able to get others to cooperate with him.
