Action Determines Your Success

When you read the stories of success of people who are successful, you might realize that there is something common between them, that is, they work towards a set goal in their life and their everyday activities are based on that goal.

The difference between successful and ordinary people is in their thinking. People who are successful always think of what they want and ordinary people think of what they don't want. Ordinary people with goals, hardly work on it and turn their goals into just a wishful desire.

Lack of action is the chief reason why many people fail in realizing their goals. Many people think that setting of goal will create magic in their life. They think that writing their goals on a piece of paper is all they need to do. Then they sit down hoping that their goals will be turned into reality without doing anything.

Money does not shower from the sky and nobody offers you free lunch. You cannot achieve your goals if you do not do anything about it. Once you have set your dreams and goals, you have to seriously work on it. Only action can produce results.

Getting things done means success. Setting of goal is a powerful tool that will help you to stay focused on it till you reach it or achieve it. Goal setting is not a magic wand that will get you what you desire to turn into reality without any action. Mostly, the lack of action is due to lack of motivation.

Do you know when you feel motivated, you get excited and take lot of action. But, when you are not motivated, you feel sad and lazy and are not ready to take any action. This causes lack of action, and therefore you fail to reach to your set goals. Hence, if you want to be lively and full of action, keep yourself motivated.

Being motivated is not a skill; it must be done everyday to keep that spirit going. Thus, it is your actions after setting your goals that will decide your success. So start taking required actions now and turn your goals into reality. If you seriously want to achieve something in your life, goal setting is "the tool" for you.

What is Success and Wealth?

In a small village there lived three old men. There names were Mr. Love, Mr. Success, and Mr. Wealth. They were good friends and mostly they spent time together. They were also poor, so everyday they use to visit each house in order to get some food for their survival.

One day they approached one of the house. Like every one in the village the lady of the house knew them. As see saw them coming towards her house from the window, she went to open the door for them. She asked the old man standing close to the door to come in with his other two friends. The old man said that she has to select only one of them.

The lady went inside the house and told this to her husband. The husband said, "Let us invite Mr. Wealth". If he comes to our house we will be rich. The lady said, "No I think we should invite Mr. Success. If he comes to our house we will be successful and we will have wealth if we are successful.

As they were discussing and arguing with each other, their young daughter came. After knowing what the argument is about she said, 'Oh let us invite Mr. Love. If he comes to our house we will all be happy.

So after some more argument they finally decided to invite Mr. Love. So the lady opened the door and said, "Mr.Love, please come in.

As Mr. Love enters the house, Mr. Success and Mr. Wealth also follows him. The lady was surprised. She curiously inquired why all three old men came inside when they only asked her to select just one of them?

Mr. Love gave this answer, " Wherever there is Love, Success and Wealth automatically follows!
