How to be Successful in Life or Small Business!

Not everyone is programmed to be a successful businessperson, many people make it but many more fail along the way.

A large part of your future success will depend on your P.A.D.

That's your Passion, your Attitude and your Desire, these three things will be more important than anything else in achieving your success.

You must approach what you do with Passion, a positive Attitude and the Desire to reach your end goal at all cost, take away any one of these three elements and your chances of succeeding are lessened dramatically.

Pick what you have a Passion for doing and turn it into a business because doing what you love ensures that your business does not become just another job but something that you wake up too full of energy and ready to go.

Finding your Passion in life will not on its own guarantee success, therefore, approach everyday with a positive Attitude that you can and will succeed, of course, there will be times when self doubt and outside influences shake your confidence but don't dwell on these but move forward and find and think of ways to turn the negatives into positives and with this positive Attitude, you'll move mountains.

The same applies to Desire, it is a must that you Desire the end result of all your efforts, no use hoping or praying that you will be a success, you must ache with DESIRE to achieve, anything less and failure is not far away.

I know an extremely successful businessperson who on first meeting comes across as someone with a negative attitude towards himself, saying his lazy, doesn't plan and generally unorganised, however, speak with him about how he started his business, how his business is currently operating and where he pictures himself in the future and he takes on an overwhelming positive Attitude and his Desire to achieve and let nothing get in his way is infectious to listen too, especially as he tells you about what he loves to do and his turned this Passion into a multi million dollar business.

These three qualities can never be underestimated, if you don't find and live your Passion, approach it with and have a positive Attitude, plus have an overwhelming DESIRE to achieve, then you better think twice before going any further with your business dream because you can't learn these three qualities you MUST have them as part of your makeup, otherwise, you'll remain average, not successful.

Limiting Perceptions and Broadening Horizons
If you live in modern society I'm sure at some point in your life you've sat in a window seat of an airplane looking down at the fluffy blanket of clouds and thought to yourself, 'Wow, it's so big and flat, fluffy and soft, I wonder what it would feel like to lay down on that super-soft mattress.'

What does one do when one is too old, too weak, and feels powerless and regretful? What does one do when one looks back at his life and sees nothing that was worth living for? What does one do when one sees the future coming to an end - the end of a journey? "The journey was not mine," said the old man. "What was that about? Why was I here? What was I suppose to do? Where am I going and will I ever come back? Come back to what, to whom and for what purpose?""What if I would come back, what choices would I have? What roads would I take? What would all this mean to who I will become once again? Would I live a life in fear, in a cage with limits, expectations and demands imposed upon me? Would I blindly follow instructions that would once again lead to destruction? Would I allow my soul to guide me? Would I let it grow, be nourished, and be what it needs to be? Or would I again stifle my inner core to waste, and to be lost as I had allowed it to be lost in this lifetime?"The old man sat under a large apple tree, leaned against its trunk with his legs extended in front of him.
