In my previous writeup, I pointed out how I discovered that it was impossible to be an achievr without having goals. Then I began to point out the reasons for goal setting.I will continue from there by mentioning some other points Goals give direction Now that you seem to have understood the relationship between goal and vision, I would proceed to tell you that knowing what you want to achieve would ultimately give your actions a specific direction. When you have a mental picture without a definite action plan as to how to achieve them, what you are doing is fantasizing or should I say wishful thinking. But, I tell you, once you know what you want to achieve, you can go ahead to create a roadmap on how to arrive at that future you want to future in. I mean to say that, it should be obvious top you that without goals, you cant set a roadmap as there is ...

I set my mind to understand the secrets of success and witty inventions, to know what makes achiever’s achieve, to understand the methodology and steps to speedy progress and to understand how to stay on top. I perused through the pages of history, to see how men of worth became who they are, to understand how they gained value, I went through ages past, I sought references from various races as to get what differentiates and distinguish people in each generation. This I found and it marveled me, I stayed on what I found, I pondered on it. I discovered the difference between the achiever and the non- achiever, the successful and the unsuccessful, those who enjoyed speedy progress and those who did not is so amazing that I couldn’t but share with you. I found that those who achieved had a specific target in view, that there efforts were channeled towards a particular achievement, that they know what they wanted and they went for it. There was definiteness of purpose with them and ...

      The Bible points it out that as a man thinks in his heart, so is he. Also, Henry Ford was quoted to have said 'if you think you can, you are right and if you think you cant, you are also right. Why did I start with this profound introduction? The reason is simple- 'All potential achievers have excuses to not becoming achievers'. What migrates achievers from being potential achievers to actual achievers are the things they know while going through the various processes that made them the achiever they are. I want to use this medium to show you some of the facts they know. BACKGROUND IS NOT AN EXCUSE Often you hear potential achievers complain about their background and most of these people wish they had a better background. They blame their inability to reach their target on the kind of background they have. This excuse is the most frequent complaint of people who have failed to be real success in life. This excuse is that they had a poor background and could no...

In my previous writeup, I began to mention and explain some facts that achievers know. It is the practise of these facts that produce the achievers out of them. So, if you are to be an achiever, you will have to know and practise these facts. These facts are SUCCESS IS A STATE OF THE MIND Success is a state of mind! Success is first a mindset before it becomes a physical reality. If you want success, you have to dominate your thinking with success. To be an achiever, you have to start thinking as an achiever would. You have to delibrately cultivate the habit of thinking success. This is because, what you think about is what you become,so when you think success, you are cultivating your being for success. Achievers know that life moves in the direction of most predominant thought, so they prodominate there thoughts with success, so there life moves in the direction of success. This is where I stopped in my last writeup. Let's look at another fact NOTHING WORKS WITHOUT A WORK...
