SUCCESS IS FORGED BY PROCESS, NOT BY EVENTS
Successful people create their success by a carefully orchestrated process. They create and use the entire formula. Despite what you may have read or heard, success is not an event. Success doesn’t drop from the sky or come from a game show. It doesn’t ring the doorbell and await you on the front porch with balloons and a check the size of a refrigerator. Success does not chime from a machine with spinning bars, lemons, and cherries. It doesn’t awake 10 pounds lighter, it cannot be bought in a pharmacy. Success is a process, not an event.
Ask any chef and they will confirm that the perfect dish is a series of ingredients and a well-engineered process of execution: the right ingredients, done in the right order, at the right temperature, and whaala, you have created a delicious meal. Success creation has the same method of execution.
Success eludes most people because they are preoccupied with events while disregarding process. Without process, there is no event. If you try to skip process, you’ll never experience events.
Process is the road trip to success: Yes, the elevator to success is out-of-order, you will need to labor up the stairs.
Real change has to come from the heart. True Desire.
Unless you recognize the underlying triggers that led you to the unhealthy habits in the first place, all of the motivating messages in the world will be useless and temporary. Get in touch with the catalyst for your “bad” behaviors and it will unleash powerful forces to change.
Desire – Action – Focus
Desire – Develop a real vision of what your new lifestyle will look like in a year.
Action – Create a strategy for getting from here to there. Decide what help you need to get there. Know and acknowledge your triggers and develop a plan for how to manage these obstacles.
Focus!!! Even when you don’t feel like doing it, you do it anyway because what you desire is that important!
