Vision-setter", "Go-getter". One thing I've learnt in life so far is that nothing good comes easy (even if your only desire in life is to inherit your daddy's massive ton of wealth, you still have some waiting to do)

From setting out to achieving great success, one thing is required and that is your attitude. Your attitude pretty much sets the tone for every other thing to follow.

(1) Know What You Want: You have to (specifically) define your goals and put them into writing, of which you read to yourself in constant reminder.

(2) Want What You Want: Sometimes we go into ventures and realise along the line that it wasn't what we actualised desired. It reminds me of the lyrics in one of Coldplay's songs, " if she gets what she wants, will she want what she gets..?"

So do we consider ourselves as a failure if we go into a venture and quit at some point? Absolutely not. We are just at that stage, more informed, more enlightened in self-discovery. This should be an experience for making smarter decisions, a climbing block to greater heights.

3) Go Get It: Everyone goes through hard times, everyone experiences defeat but what matters is how you respond to life's situations. Get out of the zone of self-pity. Re-strategize, lay out those plans and visions, double-up your effort and work to get results like you have just employed one more person when really, it's just you.

This time, you are getting it done, this time, you are getting it right. Remember, someone is waiting for your success story to be motivated. Now, get up and go get it!
