One step away from success

Dreams, passion, and being yourself are the first three keys to personal success, but they are not enough by themselves. If you lose the humility and do not believe you lose yourself.

These aspects are for me the most difficult to hold and easier to forget .

Be humble

Mark felt invincible, he thought he had reached his goal and he putted his life on right  track: “Now I concentrate on my job in a few years and then I’ll start to do even more. It is the right choice for me, it is what I have to do to be successful.”
After some time, Mark started to feel bad and feel worse and worse.

Do not push yourself beyond your limits , you’ll hurt yourself, rather learn to accept that the world is also of those around you who share with you the joys and pains. Learn that as you are able to create ideas, desires and dreams, so are the other people next to you.
The absence of so many people is the presumption of wanting to show others how good they are; wanting to prove that they are perfect.
Be generous and humble so that others can see in you a trusted person. Do not run behind the success imagining that this it is made of arrogance.

I think that what you do to others will come back to you, then be sure that the people you meet will remember you for what you do for them and not for what you want from them.

This principle is very old, it was taught by Zoroaster in Persia, Confucius in China and Lao-Tse, the founder of Taoism. Buddha preached it on the banks of the sacred Ganges five centuries before Christ. The sacred books of Hinduism taught it many thousands of years before and many know the words of Jesus Christ of nineteen centuries old: “So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets“. (Matthew 7-12)

To grow you must be able to grasp the criticism, admitting your limits. In this way people will appreciate you . The success is the combination of many positive results. You can not win only by following your rules. You can not always repeat yourself: “I am the best“.

Exercise:

Think about three things that you would like others to do for you:

1. ………………………………
2. ………………………………
3. ………………………………

Now flip the situation and think about how you can implement each of these examples in favor of another person.

Now think of three things that you do not want others to do to you:

1. ………………………………
2. ………………………………
3. ………………………………

Now invert the situation.

If you have not already done so read the key of dreams , passion , be yourself and do not miss the last advice
