Her Simple and Sweet Success!

Three Simple "Go To's" to Give your Inner Success a kick in the Arse.

The exam papers are done and you put down your pencil. It's the last day of high school and all the teachers have already made plans. You can't just wrap your head around the concept that you've finally reached this point. You reached the mark where you get to choose and make a decision for college. The clock is ticking. It might be scary or intimidating; or it might even be exciting. All the while, in the end, you know that the decision is placed in your responsibility. Do you all remember this time? When you were so excited for your future. The question was, “What do you want to do for the rest of your adult life?” Get a college scholarship for music? Join in on a nutritional degree? Follow in the footsteps of your mother to become a nurse? The options are actually quite endless, but I can tell you one thing. Making the decision on your own, might actually be the best decision you will make out of all of these, despite the amends of "best-advice".

When you get into about two years of your college, they say, that by ironically at this time, will you be most able to arrive at what you really wanted to specialize in all along. This is the usual case scenario. If you're lucky, it is before college starts. Miscalculating decisions like this is normal. Sometimes we experience this throughout our careers as well. Some college people, on the contrary, only realize by the time they are done graduating, what they really wanted to do all along. And sometimes, after many years in one job, we realize what we should have realized to begin off with. A lot of people, sometimes, don't end up going to college for what they really should have been specializing in.

Decisions like this, that you may feel are all too important, happen, frequently. Before college starts, we're afraid, leading to the tendency to ask from our parents. Parents usually tell us what they want from a standpoint of fear, so you will be secure and safe in the future. But sometimes the safe road isn't the choice that leads to our calling. Actually sometimes we are the only ones who know our self best and the safe road is what leads to a monotone lifestyle that we always question and doubt. If you're lucky, you will be able to acknowledge these three key points before contemplating what to do for the whole of your careers. They are three obvious, and back to the basic assumptions. They don't go that far in the charts with every situation, but these three key ideas go hand in hand with a successful and passionate life, always. They are as follows, and a little upside to winning the game.

(1) What are you good at?

(2) Can you picture yourself actually doing this?

(3) It's not about the money, but it will be someday.

Let's go into detail now, about these. Shall we?

(1) Choosing your talent aka, finding your niche.

Joel Osteen, a famous speaker and advisor in Houston, Texas, once said a concept considering the fact that usually what you are good at, is what you are meant to be doing, even if you wanted to be doing something otherwise or thought you didn't like it so much at first. Heading towards the idea that whatever you are good at doing, if you believe in a higher being, was instilled and put there for a reason and not on accident; as if you have a purpose with it and we have to fulfill it. We may not be the best at this certain skill, but it is something we are unusually good at doing unlike most other productive doings we engage in throughout the day. There is always other people who are better at certain talents, and there is, also, always those who are just still a beginner. Consider yourself a beginner, always. Don't worry if you are not as good as the rest of the people who do this certain skill. The key to confidence and success, is to always consider yourself a beginner, even though confidence shouldn't be so much at worry here, but the enjoyment and assurance that what we are doing was meant for us and the path we should be taking and involving in. If you haven't found what you are good at, then keep searching yourself and examining, or ask your friends, family, or mentors. And take note, we have more than one gift always. The key is to find the one, you can make a unique living out of.

(2) Picture yourself doing this.

This is a hard one to explain, but let's hit the bat at it. Usually there is a glide and ease to our talent coming into sync with our visions and dreams, once we get accustomed to it as a lifestyle. But can you actually picture yourself doing this certain talent for an expertise or career in a serious matter? If you can't, with all your reasonable might, then it may mean that it may not fulfill the purpose of making you into a better version of, well, “you”. It may not help you grow as an individual, to in turn help others. The reason why that talent was put there, was because it completed you as a person and as a character. Don't get me wrong. You are not “you” without it. However, check if maybe this certain skill is really the one to pursue. Your character is the one at compliment here when it comes to choosing your career; your careful essence of a concerned being. If you are not growing as an individual into the person you feel comfortable in, love and enjoy and also others enjoy and feel comfortable around too, then maybe take a step back and reposition your thoughts. See if this passion is really good for you and, well, those around you. Usually close people, most likely, your friends or a certain family member, who have known you for a while, are the best option to see if what you are doing is really going for you, because they can tell at which the ease you have at it and, also, with which the comfort it suits with your personality. It is supposed to usually come naturally, especially if you have been working at it for many years.

(3) It's not always about the money.

Don't always do what others tell you to do, sometimes. There is a yes and no factor to this. What do you honestly enjoy doing, really? Ask yourself, and consider that. When you have an idea set in mind about something you really enjoy doing, don't listen to others telling you, otherwise, of how you “can't” make it as a living, or of how you “can't” succeed at it. "Cannot" is not in your vocabulary here and never will be.

If you really enjoy doing something, it may not take much effort to practice at it or make a living out of it, or take effort within it, therefore becoming successful down your life path. Whatever you enjoy and pursue, endlessly, turns into a well-brought career eventually. And this is usually where the gift develops into something worthwhile. It isn't about the money at first, but overtime it will certainly be.

To conclude, when you enjoy doing something, it goes hand in hand with flourishing a talent that has the possibility of becoming anything. The possibilities are more endless. This can lead to satisfaction and overflowing gratification for you everyday, and then one day on that special day, a home run to success. Being happy with what you do, creates more success than anything else. And success creates a living, not just with money but with a fulfilled life.

And remember also, you don't have to do just one expertise for the rest of your life. We may enjoy many other engagements and have many other skills as well. You are very talented, because you are so unique. We are inclined that way. Just remember, all the while, to trust your gut. That is your "life-line" speaking. So, what's your decision? I find it quite exciting, if you don't say.

Can't find what you want? Confused?

Make a mantra. It may give you the insight into what you really want out of yourself. Here is an excerpt from writer Thorin Klosowski, article "Four Ways to Figure Out What You Really Want To Do with Your Life". He tells of how to write a mantra in his own words.

Making a Mantra:

• Pick your topics: Pick a few topics to concentrate on, and make them as specific as you can. Ideas like, "The hours I want to work," or "How I want to commute" are great for narrowing in on what kind of work you might be interested in.

• Set down your principles: Write down your beliefs and intentions. It probably sounds a little over-the-top, but if you've never really written down and thought about your morals or beliefs then this is a good time to do so.

• Use strong, affirmative language: It's easy to write a manifesto with words like "I want" or "I should" but that's not helping you. Write it out with affirmative language like, "I will," or use the present tense with "I am."
