How To Be Successful: 5 Simple Steps by sirAliyu(m): 10:51pm On Sep 27, 2016
What Is Success? What does it mean for one to be successful?
Success means achievement of aims or goals and for you to be successful it means you have achieved your goals,aims and all you ever wanted from life. There are five steps to success. To be successful you should:

1.Think Positively
To think positively, first you must believe in yourself which means you need to have faith in what you can do. The sense of inferiority will never let you succeed and achieve your goals, rather it decreases your self-confidence. To do away with the sense of inferiority, you must have faith in yourself and the belief that you can do anything. Nothing is impossible except impossibility itself.

2.Go for what you want
To be successful, you should be courageous and willing to take risks. Obliterate the habit of worrying, acknowledge your fears and know how to fight them, once you are acquainted with your fears, they have less power over you and the decisions you take.

3.Develop a talent
You can't just sit and wait for your talent to appear. You'll never know if you have a talent for painting if you've never painted before. Try new things with each day that goes by. Cristiano Ronaldo didn't just sit on a bench with his legs crossed and become a great footballer, it took practice. You'll never find your talent if you don't try.

4.Say no to defeat
Having thoughts of defeat or fear of being defeated is not the best way to achieve success. Don't be the kind of person that whenever you come up with a good suggestion, you also think of a hundred ways in which it could fail. Instead say to yourself 'I can do all things through God that gives me strength', words have power. If you encounter any obstacle along the way, don't be afraid of it, it will surely shatter. Like I said earlier, you need to have faith.

5.Pray
Every problem has a solution. If you come to nothing after trying everything, why not pray? No matter what your religious belief is, prayer is very important. The best way to attain success is to call on God, to acknowledge His greatness.
"Verily man was created impatient, irritable when evil touches him. Except for those devoted to prayer/ those who remain constant in their prayers..." (Qur'an 70:19-23)
"What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them and ye shall have them" (Mark 11:24).
A famous psychologist says, "Prayer is the greatest power available to the individual in solving his personal problems. Its power astonishes me".

Just as the body requires physical needs like food and water, the soul has spiritual needs. The needs of the soul are provided by acts of worship, the most important of which is prayer.
Other ways to achieve success are: hardwork,determination,being time conscious and also being unique.

Good luck.
