Trying to “Succeed” with One Big Deal

Trying to “Succeed†with one big deal is quite common amongst people who expect to be millionaires in a week and perhaps need to be a little more grounded. The fact is that you cannot defy the laws of the universe and that’s what these people want to do.

There is a process that you must go through in order to “succeedâ€. Why? Because you must grow and learn enough in order to do the things that make you successful.

These people seem to think that the ‘stories’ of a process that you must go through are made up by boring people who just aren’t born to succeed and are quick to tell you of many a person who has enjoyed a rapid ascension to success. However, if as an example, we take a look at the many people who enjoyed some short term success on the back of the dot.com boom of the late 1990s, we’ll see that there were not too many that held onto their fortunes or whatever it was by which they measured their success.

So stop trying to take the short cut and just do the work you need to do because it will probably get you where you want to go a lot faster anyway and then you get to keep the success as well because it is inside of you.
