Rule No 22: Strive to be successful for the right reasons. The general reasons why people want to be successful are given below. We want to achieve success because it is a part of our life plans. Success is strongly related with our life plans. We can distinguish certain milestones in our plans, like graduating, getting a desired job, starting our own business or a new relationship. Achieving these milestones are successes for us. Each of these goals brings us positive feelings and emotions because we know that our life plans are fulfilling and that we are making visible progress. We want the output related to certain success. In many cases, we want to experience benefits related to the achievement of a certain goal. In our minds, we have a strong association between these benefits and a state when we are successful. This association causes our success to be desirable and enjoyable. We love the taste of winning.  Achieving success is a very positive experience also because it adds value to us and pumps our egos. Achieving success is like a personal victory.  People love winning. It is very natural. When two children play a game, each of them wants to win. It is not important if there is any material prize. They do not need any additional purpose.  It is deep in our nature that we love the taste of winning. We need stimulation. Knowing that there is a purpose, a goal we want to achieve, it stimulates us to act. The more challenging goal, the stronger success feeling is related to it.  This way, we can get a better motivation to achieve bigger goals, and we get additional stimulus to self-improve, grow personally and learn to handle challenging goal. We want to compensate for lacks and failures from the past. We all make mistakes.  Failures are definitely not nice, but they are unavoidable in our lives, and they should always provide valuable feedback.  They also raise a strong force that will push us toward further goals. We lost, but in the end, we want to win. This victory, preceded by many failures, can compensate all previous unpleasant experiences. This pattern is very often responsible for a reason why we want to achieve success. We find success as a solution to our problems. Enjoying success is a very positive experience. It can weaken the influence of other, bad experiences in our life. We often find it easier to act in one direction, when we expect success, while we avoid handling different, unpleasant problems in our life. What is important is that we are often unaware of this mechanism as it mostly works on an unconscious level. As intriguing, these reasons may sound; it always important to have good intentions behind success; else success is a mere form of greed.

In a world that thrives on instant gratification and quick results, the concept of patience can often seem outdated. We are bombarded with stories of overnight successes and rapid achievements, leaving many to believe that success must be swift or not at all. However, the truth is that success is a journey, not a destination, and it often takes its own time to materialize. The Illusion of Overnight Success: In the age of social media, we are constantly exposed to stories of individuals who seemingly achieve great success in the blink of an eye. Whether it's a viral video sensation, a tech startup that becomes an overnight sensation, or an athlete breaking records, these stories often create the illusion that success can be fast-tracked. However, what these stories don't always reveal are the years of hard work, dedication, and countless setbacks that led up to those moments of glory. The Importance of Learning and Growth: One of the most significant benefits of embracing a patient approach to success is the opportunity for learning and growth along the way. When we rush toward a goal, we may overlook valuable lessons and experiences that can only be gained through time and perseverance. Mistakes and failures are not roadblocks but stepping stones on the path to success. They provide us with invaluable insights, resilience, and wisdom that ultimately contribute to our long-term success. Building a Strong Foundation: Success built on a solid foundation tends to be more sustainable and enduring. Think of a skyscraper—it's not constructed overnight. It requires meticulous planning, a strong base, and careful construction. Rushing through the process can lead to a shaky foundation that may crumble under pressure. Similarly, in our pursuit of success, taking the time to build a strong foundation in terms of skills, knowledge, and character is essential for long-lasting achievements. Resilience and Perseverance: Success often demands resilience and unwavering perseverance. When we rush, we may become disheartened at the first sign of adversity. However, a patient approach enables us to weather the storms that inevitably come our way. It instills in us the determination to keep going even when the going gets tough, knowing that success is not an overnight event but a continuous journey. In a world where speed is often celebrated, it's crucial to remember that success rarely adheres to a strict timetable. Patience, perseverance, and a commitment to growth are the keys to achieving lasting success. While it may be tempting to rush toward your goals, taking the time to build a strong foundation, learn from your experiences, and stay resilient in the face of challenges will ultimately lead you to a more fulfilling and sustainable path to success. So, don't speed up the process; success will take its own time, and the journey is just as important as the destination. #success #careergrowth

Most people take the idea of success, of arriving “there,” as something that means something really important about them. That they have “made it.” That they are finally “somebody.” Let us ponder the concept of success. Success is something we are taught to strive for. But what does success really mean? It can become the focus of an individual's career, identity, and even self-worth. However, despite its perceived importance, success itself is completely imaginary. It is a concept that is unique to each person and has no objective, external reality. Therefore, the very ideas about success can get in the way of us achieving it. There are three main things that most people think look real about success: the solidity of success, the importance of what success means, and the significance of not having success. Yet when we look at them closely, we can see very quickly that they are one hundred percent made up. First, people treat success as real and solid, when it is only made of thought. There is nothing that you can point at in the outside world and get uniform agreement that it is success. Therefore, success is a subjective experience that is unique to each person. The second thing is, people believe that success means something important. However, this is also something that is made up. Success is not imbued with the mystical ability to make us feel whole and happy with ourselves. The symbol of success only feels good for a little bit and then loses its significance. Finally, the third thing that people think looks real about success is the significance of not having it. The idea is that if we do not get success, it means something, too. This is also something that is made up. Failure is not a tangible thing but rather just a story that we tell ourselves. What all of these point to is that success is but a subjective experience that is unique to each individual. Its reality exists solely within our own minds. Thus, we find that the very idea of success can often hinder our pursuit of it, as we cling too tightly to a figment of our own creation. The joy is only in the doing, in the creating because that’s the only place it can be. The joy is in whatever is emerging for you, right now. Now is the only thing you’re not making up. Therefore, the easiest way to achieve success is to let go of the idea that success has any tangible, external reality. Instead, focus on the present moment and the joy that comes from creating and doing. This is the ultimate success. #success #truesuccess #successful
