Every day, we can take just two simple steps to ensure our success. These steps are deceptively simple, yet so many of us can’t bring ourselves to do them. What are these steps? Let us take a look.
1. Do what needs to be done.
Each day, there are certain things which should ideally be done. It may be studying, going to work, cleaning, eating, exercising or any other thing that matters in your life. Make it a point that you would finish off such things before you hit the bed each night. Already, you are half way through to success.
2. Do what can be done.
Whatever your life situation, there is always something that you can do each day to improve your life. It might be working on a personal project, networking, reading a book, learning a new word, spending time with your spouse, writing a paragraph, making a new contact, learning one more chapter etc.
Identify what you can do to add value to your work, services, relationships, business and life. Then do it. It will often be simple things that we keep putting off due to laziness or tiredness. Find the energy to complete such a task.
If you make sure these two steps are taken each day, success will not be long in visiting you. There is the immediate return in the form of self-satisfaction and pride, too. And in the long term, your productivity and achievements would be nothing short of a miracle.
