Why don’t more people succeed in life? Most people would say, because they don’t work hard enough! How many of you knows somebody who works really hard for a long time but yet they’re not successful? Hard work alone is not the secret for success! It’s only a part of it. Like a slice of pizza! Most people don’t succeed in life because they’re not willing to CHANGE! CHANGE is the subject for my talk today! And in the next 5 minutes or so, I am going to show you why CHANGE is 90% of the reason most people don’t make it in life. And then I am going to share the 3 stages of change you must be willing to go through if you ever going to accomplish what you really desire!
I was listening to one of Les Brown talk –“Live Your Dreams.”
In that talk, he shared a story about a dog lying on a sharp nail.
The story goes –
There was a young man walking down the street and happened to see a old man sitting on his porch. Next to the old man was his dog, who was whining and whimpering. The young man asked the old man “What’s wrong with your dog” The old man replied,“He’s laying on a nail”. The young man asked “Laying on a nail?, Well why doesn’t he get up?” The old man then replied “It’s not hurting bad enough.”
The message of the story is, like the dog, most people are sitting on a nail complaining but the nail is not hurting bad enough for them to make a change!
Regardless which one of the two, it involved you to change. That is doing something different from what you are habitual to.
And most people, instead of making the changes, gonnastay on their nail and complain to their graves!
With that in mind, here are the 3 stages of change you must go through in order to accomplish what you want!
1.Get clear on your emotional needs
2.Pay the price to acquire the information –(They said, what you don’t know will still from your bank account.) Information is power.
3.Be inspired by the information to take action
4.Take action
Information >> Inspiration >> Application = transformation(Desire results)
REMEMBER:
To have something you’ve never had, you have to be willing to do something you have never done.
If you don’t sacrifice for what you want, what you want become the sacrifice.
