How to attract success!

Success is something you attract, and to attract one needs to become attractive themselves. Here,  "becoming attractive" really means "to be prepared". When the opportunity arrives at your door or you arrive at the opportunity's door, you should be prepared or be attractive enough to let the opportunity to enter your life. More often than not, people attribute success to luck, being at the right place at the right time. One such example could be a chance meeting with someone who provided you an opportunity to work on a specific project that gave huge dividends. What people won't realize is that you had prepared for exactly such a chance meeting by polishing certain skills, working very very hard for long periods of time. And then, you had been to so many places searching for just the right person or opportunity to be available that suits the skills or resources you had acquired.

When Zig Ziggler said "Work harder on yourself than on your job", he was pointing towards  acquiring the right skills that would help you become attractive. For, when you have the right skills you can go out there and  knock at the opportunities' doors and one might open up for you and opportunity may find you attractive enough to let you in.

To get started with becoming more attractive, first decide what you want, or in other words set your goals.

• Decide what you want?
• Who do you want to meet? 
• What books you want to read? 
• Which places you want to visit? 
• What experiences you want to go through? 

WHEEL OF LIFE

It is important thing to write your goals down on paper. There simply isn't any other way to convert a dream into a vision, and convert a vision into a goal, and convert a goal into a reality, than to writing it down. Each of your goals have to me very very specific. if you want to loose weight, specify how much weight you want to loose, or what is your target weight. Next, specify when you want to achieve your goal, also referred to as the timeline. Again be very specific and set up an exact date by which you want to achieve that goal. Wheel of Life is a very effective system for planning out your life. For a well balance life, make sure you cover all eight spokes of the wheel of life. A balanced wheel of life will run smoothly, and so will your life, unless some areas are neglected or over emphasized. Without balance the wheel would wobble and may fall apart altogether. Specify what is required to score a perfect 10 on each of these areas of your life, and when do you plan to be there, and then plot where you are currently along the spokes. This will give you an idea about which areas need more effort and time, but it is important not to neglect any of the areas, even if you are ahead compared to the others.

Once you have your goals list prepared with specific measurable parameters (metrics) to be achieved by specific dates (timelines), you are 80% percent through with your journey. Rest 20% is sheer persistence and focused hard work. You will have bumps, hurdles and distractions along the way, but just like a sail boat, no matter which way the wind blows, keep adjusting your sails so that you are always moving in the direction of your goals.
