ELEMENTS OF SUCCESS - Frank Uzo

In this segment we shall be considering basic issues that are inevitable in the

quest to achieve success. You might also choose to call them success

principles.The following are some principles that can help anyone achieve

success. 

 

(1) SELF DISCOVERY:

 

Success is achieved when you know who you are, understand where you are going

and move progressively towards its attainment; that is the summary of the

concept of self discovery. Why so? Because success is the progressive

advancement towards an identified course (which re-echoes my definition of the

concept of success)

Many people live through life unknown and without any traceable level of impact

because they do not bother to know who they are; this is not common to Africa

because I have met people from different parts of the world who do not know who

they are beyond their names and perhaps nationalities. Your name is actually a

reflection of what your parents thought about you at the point of your birth

while your nationality is just your geographical location in the course of your

Odyssey on earth.

Without equivocation, you can bear witness with me that you can change your name

and even your nationality if they don't match up with who you are because your

purpose (vision, assignment) is actually the true definition of your identity.

Then how do I know who I am? That question has been a recurring decimal in most

of my meetings and I do always leave the people who pose such questions

satisfied with the answers I help them dig up from within themselves.

Simply put, the answer to who you are is trapped within you and the ability to

ask the right question is the key that unlocks the true value of your identity.

Who you are is that voice that continuously draws you to the direction of what

you are wired to do, how you are wired to think and how you are wired to

operate.

(I would be glad to furnish you with the self discovery matrix I developed on

request)

 

(2)GOOD MIND SET:

 

The root of success is established in the mind because the mind is the centre of

cognition. It is in the mind that the picture of success is first established

before it can be framed into reality in the physical realm. There is nobody who

achieves success that did so without a clearly defined picture of it in their

minds. Every human being is configured to be bigger on the inside (the higher

form of self) than the outside. This sense of awareness is exactly what gives

momentum to the quest for success because it breeds passion, upgrades confidence

and stimulates creative thinking towards attaining the set goals (which are

indisputable tools for success)

A good mindset is a strong magnetic force that pulls towards it the things that

are agreeable and acceptable to its disposition. I have never seen anybody who

focussed on failure that became successful but I have seen people who focussed

on succeeding that became successful. The mind is the root of any physical

outcome you can ever think of (irrespective of outward circumstances) and it

therefore becomes imperative to master the art of using the mind to build

whatever you desire to do.

Think success; have success.
