Prepare For Success - 5 Sure Fire Tips to Ensure That You Realise Your Dreams

[IslaAmelia]

A while back, at the end of one of my students' Becoming Limitless Review recitals, I was the last to play on the program. You know, I was trying to set a good example and show my students that their teacher was willing to perform as well. At the last minute, I grabbed my music. Even though I'd memorized my piece, nerves got the better of me and I thought to myself, "I'll just put the music in front of me, just in case." I'm sure you can guess the rest of the story. During the first fifteen measures I looked up at the music and the rest is humiliating history. It was hands down THE worst performance I have ever had and you can guess how completely moronic I felt having strictly forbidden my students not to do this and then I went and did it myself. Needless to say, I suffered the consequences of my hypocrisy and learned a valuable lesson. WALK MY TALK. How often do we rattle off words of wisdom to our children, our spouse, our in-laws, and co-workers, but then proceed to behave in a way exactly opposite of what we said? For example, a parent telling their kid to stop yelling all the while they are screaming at their kid. A spouse telling the other to listen, but refuses to give a listening ear. A co-worker blaming his colleague for a project gone awry when he, too, dropped the ball. I'm afraid such things happen more often than any of us would like to admit.

Why do we do this? Sometimes I think it's because we think we're the exception to the rule. "This may hurt other people, but it won't affect me," we say trying to justify ourselves. Ever heard that one before? Or "I can do it, just this once." Yeah. I'm sure that one sounds familiar. Or "No one will find out." Yikes! When we say that, we're just waiting for trouble to come bite is on our sorry behind. The other reason for failing to walk our talk is that it's difficult to take responsibility for ourselves. In our heart of hearts, we all know what is right and wrong. But more often than not, making the right choice isn't easy and in the heat of the moment it takes integrity and courage to do what we say. In the case of the piano recital, I chose to stray from my own better judgment because of fear - fear of failure. Whatever the reason for choosing to live a duplicitous life, it's not worth the consequences that will surely follow if you choose to betray your conscience. Doing so is a recipe for personal disaster. In the end, the only way to be truly successful is to put our money where our mouth is in every situation.

Here's a question for you to think about: Have you ever been in a hurry to get somewhere and it seems like all the slow drivers in the world just happen to be driving that day? I mean, these drivers don't seem to be going slow just because you are going fast. I mean these guys are going like 15-10 mph under the speed limit. Does that ever happen to you? It happens to me all the time! Maybe that just means I should leave the house a few minutes earlier, but that's beside the point! The other day, we were in a hurry to go somewhere and there was a guy, going 20 mph in a 35mph zone. We were also in a semi-residential area and so I was also in a no passing zone. Well, being a man, driving a Hummer, all that power under the hood, I saw a clearing and I went! I had an objective, a place to be, a purpose and it seemed as though this other driver was just lolly-gagging around, taking his sweet time, with no destination or sense of time whatsoever. So I gunned it and as we were passing him, he turned and flipped the bird, was yelling at his own window and we could tell that he was obviously a little upset.

He must not have liked the fact that we were passing him up and that we had somewhere to be. So we drove on and arrived at our destination just a few minutes early, just like we had planned! Had we continued to follow this other driver, we would probably have been late as the no-passing zone went on for a few more miles. All professional athletes have coaches who teach them to notice and build on other successful sports people's strategies. Businesses have also adapted and used many of these strategies to enhance people's teamwork, sales performance, negotiating, or communication skills. One notable example is the franchise outlet which is modeled on the successful practices of the businesses elsewhere.
