The Start Of My Journey To Success.
Every person has got that certain point in life where they just have to grab a hold of the steering wheel and completely turn their life to a entirely new direction. There could be several reason that would trigger it, but I’m willing to bet that the majority of it relates to these categories: Health, Finance and Relationships.
In my particular case, it occurred to me during the early 2012. It dawned on me shortly after I heard the news that my father have come to the age where hes got to retire. That got me to ask myself, “how long will he be able to support his children?”. He is a good man but his age is gradually taking a toll in him. He always try his best to provide to his children no matter what, I discovered out a few months later from my step mother that he would even go as far as to give the last money he had left just because his children asked for the money. It is as if life slapped me in the face, I asked myself, “what have I ever done to assist my dad to at least ease the burden a bit?”
From that point on, I have set out to seek for my purpose in life. What is it that I really desire for myself? What is the reason? How do I accomplish it? I embark on the journey to success.
It was hard to accept at first but I finally discovered out that everything in this world rotates round money. You could be saying:
“What? You’ve only just realized that?”
Yes really, I have only just recognized that, to a deeper meaning of course. In a glimpse, my life has been flawlessly simple up to this point, mostly because my dad would supply me any thing that I could ever wanted and I really do mean any thing. I felt happy dwelling in ignorance, being the spoiled brat I am, I could live my carefree life without ever being conce
ed about money.
For those of you who knows me personally, my life as a musician has been the best experience so far in my life. I have met some of the nicest people in the world. These people became my good friends, admirers, my followers and my mentors. I have emerged and interviewed on a variety of talk shows, tv programs and live radio shows. I can proudly state that I am an established musician.
But…
I have made the decision to leave all of that behind, probably for a moment or might also be forever. Why you might ask?
Because I have found my significance of life. These past couple of months I spent studying successful people and entrepreneurship has got me to reconsider the life that I had chosen. I have always been the individual who lives in the present. While its fun to indulge yourself in your present way of life and never really worry about what could occur in the future, it is actually extremely dangerous. I have discovered that successful people are people who always gaze into the future. The way they do certain things are the complete opposite from the average person. They are action oriented, they proceed fast and continuously strive to discover and improve themselves, they’re not ever afraid to make mistakes and do not care about what other people think or say of them. They don’t give up.
Along The Journey To Success
These past couple of months I have spent studying online, reading publications, assisting seminars and gathering successful persons has actually given me a new perspective on life. Thriving people are the movers of the world, they contribute more to humanity than we could think of. I have vowed to myself that I WILL become one of them. Though I have observed that this sudden change upsets me internally, I am doing the exact opposite of what I have been taught in school and by my associates and family. But it was only provisional but I can feel that the change has eventually started to settle down. I am starting to see glimpse of my life turning over to the new street, I started to see even the littlest of success I accomplished.
I have successfully run my own company and effectively set up a website for it. I can feel that more achievement are coming my way the more I realize the little ones. I hope this article helped you open your mind. Lets get on this journey to success together!
