When I meet people who are above 50 or 55 years of their age, I always ask them, “Do you feel, you are successful” . To my surprise most of them come with Answer “no”. Obviously my next question is “Why?” I always add stuff to my question like if they have money or good family or good children or some spirituality, these are just to give them a direction to think and most of the time it’s a success. They do start thinking on these things and these things further lead them to special things in their life which make them or don’t make then successful in their views. So they do come up with their reasons, and most of the time its like they were not able to understand what they want from them and some even if they understood , they were not able to figure out how to achieve that. There were also people who are still not clear what would have made them successful.
Understanding what I want to achieve, and particularly how I will achieve it, is much harder than it seems. Personally, it's less difficult to identify what I want to achieve, the hardest part is deciding how I will get there and then summoning the commitment to make it all the way. Which is the reason this next question is perhaps the most important in defining your success and success plan. WHY do I want to achieve these things? If sometimes I don’t feel strongly enough about achieving something, there is very little chance I will have the stamina to stick with it. Personally speaking in this scenario; almost every time I have not achieved it. If I know exactly WHY it is I want something, if I find a way to remind yourself everyday so that I can stay committed I tend to do it or sometimes if I am leaving it I know very strongly perhaps I am successful in leaving it right here. If I find yourself quitting halfway, it is most likely that I didn't spend enough time understanding WHY part of I wanted that something. Best way is to Go back and truly think about it, I might just find that I was doomed from the start because my WHY wasn't strong enough
