THINGS THAT DETERMINE HOW FAR YOU GO IN LIFE





Everyone wants something in life, something out of life. Some want more than a body in a pair of trousers while others want simply that. Some will settle for a bungalow in a local while others will settle for nothing short of a mansion in the heart of the city. Some will even acquire for themselves private jets while some will comfort themselves with fleets of cars. It's preference: everyone wants something, no matter how little or considerably large it may seem.

            Everyone has a goal, an objective, a mission guided by a vision. These goals, visions and objectives are there to be realized and accomplished. They are not meant to be admired like a bride but to be achieved. And the far of the how much we go in making this a reality is dependent on several factors not without our Tom may not get the actual, expected, desirable result. Getting to know these factors may be of good help, putting them into consideration will definitely be of a higher one.


How You Think: Thinking is a process that comes upon us all so naturally, but how we do it makes all the difference there is to it. It is a tool, a very powerful tool in achieving our goals. How you think really matters. It matters because it drives your investment. It matters because it drives your passion. It matters because it drives your commitment, channels your energy and influence your view. As an example, someone that believes nothing is impossible will find himself helpless in the face of an impossible situation because by ways and reasoning he has led himself to believe everything is possible while another person who by the same ways and reasoning believes impossibilities though exist doesn't exist until we say it does will have little or no problem dealing with such impossible situation if he ever finds himself in one. It is good to say all is well, but it is not bad to admit when it is not. In setting our various goals a need exists to follow up with sound ideologies and philosophies, which are both products of broad thinking. Someone that believes good things come to those who wait may never get a chance at better things. Equally the person that believes the patient dogs eat the fattest bone may never, if will ever, lay his hands on fleshy meats. Let's find time to do some thinking for ourselves. It contributes a far greater deal to how far we go in life. We must, and not should, equip ourselves with the right ideologies and philosophies. If at all we must go far in life.


How You Act: Thinking is one thing, acting is another. It is one thing to think, it is another thing to act. To think and not act is tantamount to you having food and refusing to have it cooked, you are pretty much if not likely to starve, if lucky to death.

Ideas by convention naturally flow into our minds, but whether they do or not won't make a difference if nothing is done about them. A teacher may indeed have knowledge, but it makes no difference if that knowledge is not imparted. You may have ideas, but it won't matter if you don't act on them. It won't if all you do every day is sits back and imagine how beautiful things will be when you are in no range of doing them. Things if I must tell you really do not have to be perfect before we put those ideas into use. If you don't someone else will. There is simply no guarantee someone else somewhere is not nursing those ideas and ready to act on it. Because everyone has ideas, and the only thing that will distinguish and differentiate you will be your readiness and earliness to act. This readiness and earliness will give you the needed edge. While others are still conceiving and nursing you are out there exploiting, exploiting abundance of this competitive world. With this inbuilt into you, there is possibly no way you won't go far in life.

How You talk: This appears to be critical. Critical because of its technicality. There is a way you talk that gets people angry and likewise the manner that calms them down. There is a way you speak that encourages people, likewise a way that get them totally discouraged. As a leader, there is this composed reassuring manner you talk that resurrects that hope in your followers. Likewise as a leader, there is that manner of speech that kills whatever it is that is left of hope in your followers.

How you talk really do matter. You sure and really don't want to be arrogant in words when your Tom is potentially nothing in comparison to others. Doing so will be building a Wall of China to keep out your potential benefactors. How far you go in life to be sincere is to a substantial extent determined by how you talk. You can take for an example a President of an imagined nation, and imagine him delivering an undiplomatic speech in a so undiplomatic manner before an international community. Now think about how that will fair for his administration, and think about how well it will fair for a future ambition in the international community. You honestly and sincerely do need to consider how you talk, it may be the only Red Sea hindering your Isrealite from going far in life.


How You Relate: Relationship is an essential part of humanity, telling you otherwise will be lying to you. There has been no known recognized personality in the history of the world that has been unable to form a meaningful and essential relationship with people. To borrow the saying, to go fast in life you may need to walk alone; to go far you walk with people. Going fast may not be the same thing as going far. In movies walking alone may have its advantage; in practice there is little close to nothing benefit to be derived. Man by default is a social animal, and thus a need to be connected to many people as possible. When you walk alone, there is a high chance of running into troubles without no hope of any one coming to save you. But when you walk in group, when you form an essentially meaningful relationships with people near and far, there are always, wherever you go, people waiting and willing to come to your rescue should you ever run into any trouble. It does without any arguments, help you to go far in life.

We all want to go far in life, I do. To achieve this a need exist to do something, some things if we must be extensive. The truth here is there can be no limit to how far we can go in life, but there can, however on the other hand, be a limit to how far we are ready to go. And this is something that can be settled now.
