What is Important to You
It is important to set clearly defined milestones so that you can see yourself working towards the bigger success. You can set a time frame in which you want to achieve these things. Always make sure the objectives you set and the things you begin to focus on fit into the desires you have for yourself. Make your desires realistic.

Make a Promise to Yourself
Success is not accident, it is a self guided intention coupled with a can do attitude. It is supported by knowing and valuing the beautiful assets you possess. Success comes from knowing that you can achieve just because you can. Deciding on your own success means you have blinders on. Don’t let the influences of the naysayers stop you. Deciding on success means determination and one mindedness. It means, failing, quitting, procrastinating are not options you will entertain. Decide to be determined and you will achieve.
Value your time, value your inner resources, value your core beliefs. Make sure the things you do, count. What you think determines what you do and how you react. The way we perceive ourselves and the positions we find ourselves in expose ourselves to situations that create positive or negative events. The things we think about are major components towards being successful. Conquer your self defeating thoughts and claim your personal positive attributes.
Equip yourself with knowledge and education so that you have the tools you need to get further than you ever have before. Adopt a mentor, research as much as you can, and observe from others. Pursue your desires by modeling yourself after someone you believe matches your desires, and your inner self. Be realistic, and compromise on things that are not important to your core beliefs. Obstacles and interferences are okay. Get over the hurdles and keep yourself focused on the big picture, the real reasons you want to achieve this success. Be loyal to your desires. Be patient. Be persistent. Envision yourself living the desires you want to achieve. Clearly define your dreams, and make sure they match with who you truly are, and what you really want for yourself. Make a promise to yourself to be dedicated and committed to finishing what you start. Work towards your desire with a passion and enthusiasm so that you reenergize yourself along the way. Avoid the stress and burnout by taking care of yourself along the way. It is always a mistake to sacrifice yourself for the sake of succeeding. So make sure you have balance in your life. Enjoy the journey towards success. Create your path and make everyday count, but be sure to take pleasure in the efforts you make. Take responsibility for what you do and what you don’t do, so that you learn and adjust to the changes it takes to get where you want to go.
