Tips to Jump-start Your Journey to Success
Author: Shawn Lim  | Posted: 09-07-2008 | Comments: 0 | Views: 3 | Rating: (65)  (?) 
Today, if you are having difficulties in achieve your dreams, it is because you are having the mental roadblock. It is the thinking in your mind that holds you back. Why are you procrastinating the moment you know that there is something that you need to do? So the first step you need to do to jump-start your journey to success is to take the first step.
“The journey of a thousand leagues start from a single step”. This is the teachings from Confucius. And it is very truth. No matter what you do today, you need to take the first step before you start. Take the example of riding a bicycle. Nobody knows how to ride a bicycle the moment they were born into this world. You cannot learn how to ride it by reading a text book too. What you need to do in order to master this skill is to take the first step, ride on it and actually cycle it.
There is no other way but to learn it ‘on-hands’ by yourself. The same goes for swimming and it is the same if you are looking for success. Most people fail to achieve what they want because they never actually take the necessary action. They are held back by their limiting beliefs, hence, they procrastinate. However, if you are willing to take the first step, there will be the second step for you. Once you have taken the second step, the third step will appear to you automatically. It goes on and on until you eventually achieve what you want in your life.
Let me give you another example here. Think about internet marketing, you are going to build a website in order to run your online business. Just imagine that you are a totally newbie in internet technology and you don’t even know anything about HTML. So how in the world can you create your own website? For most people, almost 95 percent of them, they will give up at this point. Most of them will tell you that it is because they don’t have the knowledge, they don’t have the money to hire people to do this, it is just not their field, etc.
Only the 5 percent of them who will actually take the first step to learn how they can create a website. Let me tell you this, building a website is not as difficult as you can think of, once you have taken the first step to learn about it, and after you have successfully come up with your first website, it will be easy for you to create the second one. Can you see it now? It is all about taking the first step.
The law of momentum exists in our life. If you push a static car, it is difficult at the beginning and you need to use more energy. However, the moment the car starts to move, it will be easier and you need less energy to push it. The same thing applies in your life. It is hard for you to take the first step, but once you have taken the first step, and follow by the second step and so on, it will be easier for you. In other words, it also means that once you have moved, nothing can ever stop you.
I believe that you can see the big picture now. If you want to create amazing results in your life, start taking the first step towards your goals. You will find that to be successful is not as difficult as you think.
