To achieve success you must first know yourself



To achieve success in life, one must first know oneself. Have you ever noticed, that the most successful and happy persons are the ones who know what they want out of life. On the other hand, if you take a look at the majority of people whose lives are not going anywhere, and the question begs to be answered, as to why?

In life it is important to know ones likes and dislikes, in everything! From the food we eat, to the career we choose. Why? Because how would you like to do a job which you hated all of your life? Or be stuck in a relationship that is dead and not working out? The trick to achieving success in life is to think about what you want to have in any area of life you decide to succeed in, before you take a step that one day you may regret!

Life is not hard if we make the right choices for ourselves, but those choices are personal and must match up with whatever it is we want to achieve for ourselves in life. No one can know what you want for yourself out of life but you, and you will get what you want out of life only, if you have a clear mind of exactly what it is you wish to achieve.

So go ahead and get out a sheet of paper, and then make a list out of all the things you would like and dislike, in a relationship. Now how about doing another list for a job? Things that you would consider for example, in a relationship or in a job are up to you. This is your life, be sure to put the things you would like in a relationship on one side of the sheet and the things you wouldn’t want in a relationship on the other. Now do the same with a job, write the things you would like to have in a job on one side and the things you would not want on the other.

You may be surprised to find out that you are barely starting to know yourself! This simple exercise is the barely the beginning of learning to know oneself!
