YOU ARE AN ACHIEVER !

Believe it. You are an achiever. Don’t’ ask yourselves Am I an achiever ? , instead tell yourself, ‘ I am an achiever’.

Once upon a time, there was a large mountainside, where an eagle's nest rested. The eagle's nest contained four large eagle eggs. One day an earthquake rocked the mountain causing one of the eggs to roll down the mountain, to a chicken farm, located in the valley below. The chickens knew that they must protect and care for the eagle's egg, so an old hen volunteered to nurture and raise the large egg. One day, the egg hatched and a beautiful eagle was born. Sadly, however, the eagle was raised to be a chicken. Soon, the eagle believed he was nothing more than a chicken. The eagle loved his home and family, but his spirit cried out for more. While playing a game on the farm one day, the eagle looked to the skies above and noticed a group of mighty eagles soaring in the skies. "Oh," the eagle cried, "I wish I could soar like those birds." The chickens roared with laughter, "You cannot soar with those birds. You are a chicken and chickens do not soar." The eagle continued staring, at his real family up above, dreaming that he could be with them. Each time the eagle would let his dreams be known, he was told it couldn't be done. That is what the eagle learnt to believe. The eagle, after time, stopped dreaming and continued to live his life like a chicken. Finally, after a long life as a chicken, the eagle passed away.
The moral of the story: 'You become what you believe you are; so if you ever dream to become an eagle follow your dreams, not the words of a chicken'.

While we can fly like an eagle, unfortunately, some of us underestimate ourselves, our inner power and limit ourselves. This is an obstacle to our progress.

Just analyse, what the achievers have something different from you. If they can achieve something, why not you ? They have the same physiology like you. Only the strategies differ. Only the working patterns differ. If your present strategy is not working or giving you the results as expected, change it. If you continue to follow the same strategy, you will continue to get the same results.

Men take only their needs into consideration, never their abilities.- Napoleon Bonaparte

Be Consistent

You might have watched children learning to walk. Initially the child may fall down many times, but it never stopped trying. The child is putting consistent efforts to stand up and walk. Be consistent in your efforts.

Take the Failures as Feedbacks

Failures are not failures in one sense. They are the feedbacks, how you have done or performed. You learn from the feedback and change your working next time. If you are working in the right way, you ought to have right results. Hence, do not get disturbed by seeing the initial failures; because, they are not failures. They are only feedbacks.

Read achievers’ autobiographies

If you read the autobiographies of the achievers, you will energize yourself. Your battery will be charged. You would notice how they had overcome the obstacles and struggles and finally won. The best example is Thomas Alva Edison. He tried more than 10,000 times to invent the electric bulb. What a burning desire to stay in the achieving path !

Be optimistic

Be an optimistic always. See positive points in every situation. Never be a pessimistic person. This will spoil your creativity, self confidence.

Learn from others also

You can learn from others also. It doesn’t mean that you have to learn by practicing yourself only. Just watch other people. Every step taken by others is a learning point for you also. Only thing is you have to keep your eyes open.

Make a commitment

Commit yourself that you are going achieve. Unless you commit yourself, you will not come out of box. To realize your full potentials, you have to commit to do something extra, something differently and something creatively. Make an impact. Make a difference. You will definitely achieve.

Motivate yourself

Self motivation is the best one. Here are some fundamentals for self-motivation. Think a while and digest each one of them and apply them.
The ultimate motivator is defeat. Once you are defeated, you have nowhere to go except the top.
Then only thing stopping you is yourself.
There is no guarantee that tomorrow will come. So do it today.
Intentions don't count, but action's do.
Don't let who you are, stunt what you want to be.
Success is the greatest motivator.
Your goals must be clear, but the guidelines must be flexible

Look for alternatives

Always look for alternatives and possibilities. This means that you have to do away with rigidity. Sometimes, alternate ways may be very useful, cost effective, time saving. Unless you look for other alternatives, you will miss all these benefits. Don’t have a fixed way to do anything always. The main point is having a way of doing something does not mean it is the best way of doing it.

Have an open mind

Everything you come across and every person you meet can help you - but only if you are open minded and willing to explore the opportunity. If you are not, then you can never truly improve the quality of your life.If you want to be a winner, you can be a winner. If you want to be an achiever, you can be. It is all in your hands.

Believe it ! You are an achiever !!
