The journey to becoming successful is not of unintentional pursuit but of careful, calculated efforts targeted at achieving the predetermined goal.
No one becomes successful by chance. Everyone who is successful didn't become so by sitting lazily and expecting luck to come his/her way.
As Lydia Sweatt of Success.com wrote "Success doesn’t just find you. You have to go out and get it." Successful people are not idle people. They are people who have captured a vision and are working towards achieving it.
The path to becoming successful is one with other paths in it. It is like a major road with several lanes which lead to the end point regardless.
It is like having a road which has other lanes in it leading to the end path of success but sadly there are diversions which many often prefer to make use of.
These diversions never lead to success. They only lead to regrets and sorrows. Rather than remain on the lanes though they may seem to long and uncertain we often choose the diversions.
Today I am going to be exposing one path which is a diversion from the path to becoming successful. If you desire to be successful you must never thread on this path.
Come with me because I believe you are about to read a piece which would set you firm on the path to becoming successful.
"The sluggard will not plow by reason of the cold; therefore shall he beg in harvest, and have nothing." – Proverbs 20:4
The diversion on the path of becoming successful which you must avoid is that of EXCUSES.
King Solomon says that the sluggard will not plow not because he is not strong or because he doesn't have the tools for plowing but because of the cold.
So many of us are quick to give excuses why we are where we are, why we failed in the task we set out to accomplish, why we are not able to do this or to do that. We are full of excuses.
Always presenting excuses why we cannot do a thing is an indication that we are not ready for success. No man who truly wants to be successful would be quick to give excuses.
Excuses are birthed from an individual who is not ready to be successful. Success comes only to those who work for it and not those who give excuses as to why they failed to work.
You cannot eat your cake and have it back. You can't refuse to work, present excuse and expect that you would get the benefit of workers. When you refuse to work you would exist in penury. There can't be food for lazy people.
The major reason why people profer excuses is due to IRRESPONSIBILITY.
Responsible people do not have the leverage of giving excuses.
If you must be successful you must take responsible for your actions and inactions. You can't fold your arms and expect lines to fall into pleasant places for you when you do not work.
Refusing to work would only bring you to penury.
Irresponsibility is what gives rise to excuses. Check the lives of people who are always giving excuses they are irresponsible people, individuals who are unwilling to take hold of their lives and forge ahead in destiny.
Success does not come and meet you. You would have to go out and meet it. You do not meet with success with a mindset of irresponsibility neither do you become successful by giving excuses for not doing what you are expected to do.
Theodore Roosevelt said that "If you could kick the person in the pants responsible for most of your troubles, you wouldn't sit for a month".
What this means is that you are the architect of most of your troubles. A man is the architect of his woes so refusing to take responsibility for your actions and inactions simply means you are not ready for success.
You can never rise above your level of responsibility. With a responsible approach to life comes a deviation from giving excuses.
Do not thread the path of giving excuses. Choose to take responsibility for your life. Choose to take responsibility for your actions and inactions.
Determine never to make use of the diversions on the path to becoming successful but to take the long lanes.
Make a commitment to rise above giving excuses and to live responsibly.
