So many people have deep desires within themselves and truly want to achieve certain things in life. But they are greedy and unappreciative even before they receive them, and want much more than they deserve.
Many, for instance, want not just to be offered a good job with a high salary and work hard to make money and increase the quality of their life, but they want to be rich, and they want it now.
That’s a wrong approach.
Because, first you need to be grateful for what you already have (and no matter how little that is, believe me, others have much less and still find the will to thank for it).
Only then will you feel some abundance and will realize that you have the power to turn it into something more. And you’ll feel the need to work for that, to give something in return and to then enjoy the fruits of your labor.
2. Failure
We have a wrong perception of what failure is these days.
Most people fear it, they don’t even try because of the chance of not succeeding. And that’s why they never see their dreams come true.
The truth is, failure is a precious gift. It’s an inevitable step on your way to success, and a step you need to take more than once.
It’s the proof that you’re trying, you’re doing something to get what you want, and you’re not giving up.
It’s followed by lessons and experience, and it makes you stronger, with more willpower, more focused. It shows you what exactly not to do next time, because it didn’t work out this time.
And if you keep trying, eventually you’ll get there.
There’s no better example than Thomas Edison – his whole life is a proof of the power of failure and how you can work with it for optimum success.
