Being a Success Coach, it is customary for me to help people become successful in life or profession. Unfortunately, there is no trick or pill, which one can perform or swallow to become successful.
Looking backwards, the #1 question which my students, clients, and acquaintances ask me is
"How do I become successful?"
Of course, being a success coach, I am always prepared to answer this question. That's, what success coaching is all about. But then, some people ask me the 2nd question, which is
"Is there a secret to be successful?"
My usual answer has been no. "A big fat NO". As I thought more about it, researched, and evaluated the success of my students, clients, and anyone I coached - including my friends and family member, I realised that I was wrong. Actually, not only I learned, but I also got convinced looking at the data, that there certainly is a secret to success. And I want to share with all of you today. The #1 secret to being successful is very simple and can be summed up in just two words:
"Take Action".
Yes, all my students, clients, friends, or family members, achieved success or didn't because they either took action or they didn't. It didn't matter if they received a course or certification. It didn't matter if they engaged me as a coach or someone else or no one. But those who took action; they certainly achieved success or at least got the right direction and are now on their journey to success.
Here's the best part, there are only two outcomes of your actions - they are useful actions, or they are not. So if you take the "right action" you would get closer to your success. But don't worry, if the action does not turn out to be right. You will still learn that the action you took was not the right action. Which means you are ready to take the next action. And continue to take actions, which turns out to be right actions, until you achieve what you wanted to. So let me revise the secret as follows:
"Take Continuous and Multiple Actions until you succeed".
So for all those, who can't talk to me or are not sure to engage a success coach, don't worry. Just take action and repeat till you succeed.
I wish you success in 2019 and beyond!Coach Naval
