SEVEN BASIC REASONS WHY PEOPLE FAIL

 

1.     THEY DON’T ALLOW THEMSELVES TIME TO SUCCEED. It takes 13 years to become a doctor, 6 years to become a lawyer, and 1,000 hours to become a barber. Yet, too many people try just a few months or a few weeks. And then decide they are not cut out to be successful.

 

2.     THEY LACK THE DESIRE. Too many people wish they were successful, but they don’t really want success enough to do all the things that are necessary.

3.     THEY DON’T HAVE A PLAN. They let each day take care of itself. A successful person outlines and plans what they do EVERY HOUR OF EVERY DAY.

4.     THEY DON’T HAVE THE PROPER ATTITUDE. People who fail often do not believe on themselves, or their opportunity.

5.     THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO CONTINUALLY LEARN. Herbert Hoover said.” The wise man learns from the experience of others.” Top people attend meetings, read books, and talk with other people to obtain ideas that will help them to be better.

6.     THEY DON’T SHOW ENOUGH ENTHUSIASM. Emerson said that nothing great ever been done without enthusiasm. Enthusiasm is to success as yeast is to bread… IT RAISES THE DOUGH.

7.     THEY DON’T WORK HARD OR SMART ENOUGH. The only time success comes before work is in the dictionary. TOP PEOPLE WORK HARD AND SMART.

 

NOTE: OF ALL THESE SEVEN REASONS WHY PEOPLE FAIL. NOT ONE HAS TO DO WITH AGE, EDUCATION, MARITAL STATUS, BACKGROUND OR WHETHER A PERSON IS A MAN OR A WOMAN.
