Success is not just reserved for a chosen few.
Everyone, yes everyone, has the capacity to be successful in every area
of his or her life. Success results from cultivating certain habits and
sticking to them.
Consistency is a must. Successful people have a certain type of
personality. Successful people think in a particular way, talk in a
particular way and act in a particular way.
Do you want to be successful too? Here are 11 principles of success that
are bound to help you if you follow them.
1. Develop a clear vision of what exactly you want to achieve in your
life. Carry this vision in your mind at all times. This is the starting
point to success.
2. Believe without any doubt that you will achieve your dreams.

3. Stay away from negative influences such as negative people, books,
articles, etc. Surround yourself with things that boost your belief in
yourself and your future success.
4. Take responsibility for your future. Do not depend on anybody. Take
responsibility for your life and don't doubt success.
5. Make a habit of repeating positive affirmations. Speak out your
affirmations in present tense as opposed to future tense. Writing down
affirmations is even more effective. This helps your mind stay fixed and
focused on your goals. This is also a good way to build your
self-confidence and deepen your beliefs.
6. Make a firm commitment to action. Once you decide to take action,
stay committed and never give up! Once you deter from commitment, your
belief becomes shaky and unstable. If this happens, your efforts will
collapse like a deck of cards. You will have wasted all the time and
energy you invested in your efforts. So stay committed.

7. Set a specific goal. If you know what you really want to achieve, you
need to define it by making it a goal. Set specific goals. Your goals
should be precise, measurable, realistic and timed.
8. Work out a plan of action. Break down your plan into smaller tasks or
units. Do your task in smaller steps. Take one step or two each day
while reminding yourself that each step is taking you closer to your
goal. Your actions should be filled with faith, determination and
purpose. Consistency is vital to reach your goal.
9. Never give up until you have achieved what you desire. Persistence is
the key to success. Treat every failure as a learning opportunity. But
push yourself towards your goal with stronger faith.

10. Maintain an attitude of gratitude, realizing that your dream is
becoming a reality. Look around you and be grateful for things that you
already have such as a home, loving family, etc. Just stay grateful.
11. Be a giver - give your time, money and service to others. Be kind
and generous to all.
Now you know the principles of success. Act on it with faith and
persistence - and never give up!
