Hello steemians
This post is a continuation of things to drop in other to become successful
In the previous article I listed and explained a few you can access it here
EXCUSES
Excuses are a way of running away from responsibilities or decisions, people who give excuses always find a reason or explanation to justify every action, fault or offence example same reason why you can’t remove friends that are of negative influence to your life because you still want to see them on Friday nights when you go out for night clubs.
If there are always excuses for why you can’t make that big calls or why things haven’t worked out the way you planned you will find it had to ever accept responsibility and make the decision that need to be made if you ever going to be successful.
The adverse effect of excuses is procrastination; you keep pushing what you ought to do today to a later
Know that when we make excuses we hand over power to someone else, power is no longer in our hands and when power is no longer in our hands neither is our destiny at this point success becomes harder to achieve.
FEAR
fear is a feeling induced by perceived danger or threat that occurs in certain types of organism which causes a change in metabolic and organ function and ultimately a change in behavior such as fleeing, hiding, or freezing from perceived traumatic events
Wikipedia.
While some person are naturally born worriers some people become extreme worriers as a result of situation or circumstances but in either case it becomes difficult to remove fear but fear is what holds many people back from living the life they want.
Some persons never take the dive into that dream business because they were too scared about losing others never plunge into the freelancing world because they are too scared of losing their jobs security
When you are always cautions of losing you will always become discourage of even trying a new venture, fear wins when you always associate more pain with what might go wrong than you do with the pleasure of what might go right
Successful people always take the risk, they are always optimistic that things could turn around even though things could still go wrong
If you want to be successful you must be a risk taker.
INSTANT SUCCESS
They is a familiar saying that says slow and steady wins the race so is applicable to success too
Successful people know that reaching the top doesn’t happen like magic it requires hard work and consistence, success doesn’t happen overnight if you have this perception about success it time to quite because you are probably not going to like the journey
The road to success is long and requires determination don’t live for today, tomorrow or next month, do things that you will benefit from years to come
I agree with you, but at least some fear can be useful cause man is going in abyss without fear ...instead of that man should not let fear over rule him...fear is the key (Iron Maiden)
You are right @nebyart, it is okay to fear but there should be a limit to how you fear.
Fear shouldn't stop you from making that decision that will change your life.
Stay blessed.
