How to be successful, written by a hungry blogger.

Then he tells you to not work hard but smart. But if you ask him what smart work means, he will start blabbing.
lol

I think everybody knows the rule to success in life but what governs the entire rule of success and breakthrough in life is DESTINY!

Our destiny determines our degree of success in life.

You can be smart, hardworking, intelligent, good in everything and doing the right thing but then you lack luck, I tell you, you won't achieve much.

Many people, many tribe, races, religion, etc interpret destiny in different ways, some see it as luck, some see it as divine favor, some see it as grace, some see it as whatever, it all boils down to DESTINY!

Our destiny has the final say in who and what we become in life, sadly cry

...and to the poster, some people are special to God, whether u admit it or not, despite their sins, despite their shortcomings, they still find favor and mercy with God.

Some people commit same crime that has taken the life of many, and still go free angry

Obasanjo to me enjoys some favor!

Even Buhari enjoys some favor because the evil he has committed, if Goodluck had committed half of it, Goodluck would have been killed long time ago.


Some people commit evil and get away with it, even without connection but by virtue of what no human can explain, but then it is their destiny!

That is why u must not follow your friend or colleague or brother or classmate to commit the same evil he or she commits because they might be destined to go free and you will be caught

You guys peddling this fallacy of hard work not being indispensable.

It takes hard work to think innovatively. It takes hard work to figure out ways to work smart. Ask the discoverer of electricity how many times it took him to fail before he succeeded.

Do you know many of such bricklayers have multiple houses and cars lowkey? They don't have to flaunt it. That's the mentality of a poor man.

You bring up a woman that doesn't know how to sew. I've lived long enough to know that the more you look, the keas you see. She may have slept with one rich Alhaji who opened that business for her. And u can tell you for a fact, if she doesn't learn the basics of sewing at least, her employees will defraud her a lot of times without knowing.

IamPlato:
HOW TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN LIFE

This is not like every other success write up you use to know; its high time we spit the truth...

What do you understand success to be?

Success for me could be havin a billion dollars in my account, success for you could be your achievements in changing lives of people every step of the way, success for others could be the number of awards they achieved...

Our definition for success differs greatly, just as our strategies of achieving it differs


The very first step in getting the spirit of success is to first define your own success. What do you want to achieve? Is it money, awards, changing lives, women or estates? Define it... with a definition you have a road map on which you plan on.


You must also understand that you must first succeed with little things before you can succeed with bigger things...


Now lets be very plain here...


The road to success is very bleeped up; not a smooth ride... they tell you success is like climbing up a ladder... sorry bro you have been lied to... the road to success is scary, full of traps and bombs, water and fire, enemies upon enemies, trust and betrayals, jumping and diving, running and hiding...
There are certain things you must understand so you don’t get frustrated in your pursuit of success
1. No one is going to fix you, you got to fix yourself
2. You must accept yourself the way you are
3. Life will never be perfect
4. Those who complain must achieve less
5. No one has it all figured out
6. Enemies will accumulate
7. You are not special
8. Being too kind is a weakness
9. Success is not achieved by hard work




1. NO ONE IS GOING TO FIX YOU, YOU GOT TO FIX YOURSELF
Not one person will fix you, you alone will build your success tower as you encounter increasing challenges. No one will fix you because everyone is busy fighting their own battle, they don’t care how difficult your life is because they have theirs to worry about.
For success to be reached you must kill the entitlement mentality, no one owes you anything, you are not entitled to any share/part of anybody’s wealth, not even your parents




2. YOU MUST ACCEPT YOURSELF THE WAY YOU ARE
They say we are all beautifully and fearfully made... yes some persons are unattractive or scary to look at and they owe you no apology about it. Reason is because the real you doesn't start from your face but your mind. Do you have a problem with your looks? You are feeling unattractive? Well then feel free to have a facial surgery, change your skin colour but I promuise you that every time you look in the mirror, the first thing your mind tells you is “this can never be you”... you can change your face but not who you are.
Low self esteem is a curse that needs to be fought out of one’s mind if you wish to be successful because of you do nothing about it, it will breed and reproduce in your mind and get you tied to your comfort zone




3. LIFE WILL NEVER BE PERFECT
As a film director, one of the lessons you learn is that you can not always have what you want. I know many of us picture a perfect success, maybe a full luxurious house, expensive cars, super gadgets... success is step by step until the end, you can not always have it all, what you picture may not be exactly what you will get. Even if you get it all, from luxury house to expensive fast cars to super gadgets, you surely wouldn’t have time for some of these things which will end up lying hardly used or touched; life will never be perfect but it can always be better




4. THOSE WHO COMPLAIN MOST ACHIEVE LESS
Same thing applies to those who boast most... actions are better appreciated than words.
Since when has complaining solved problems, the best complains can do for you is advance into lamentations and attract sympathy for you because that all you deserve. Stop complaining and do something about your problems because if you don’t, no one will




5. NO ONE HAS IT ALL FIGURED OUT
In the road map of success there are lots of puzzles to be solved, some you would solve, some will take a while, but there are some you will never figure out; at this point do not waste much time on this part of life because if you do, you would prolong your success time and still wouldn’t figure them out
How do I end corruption?
How do I deal with evil?
How do I eradicate poverty?
How do I make the world love me?
How can I be the best?
How do I succeed without offending others?
Save yourself the trouble and move on with your life...




6. ENEMIES WILL ACCUMULATE#
Either you believe it or not, your success will become a thorn to some other persons. In life there is the ongoing competition of greatness, this is a struggle that will never end; just as you can’t walk through the bushes without stepping on the grasses, you can’t walk through success without stepping on toes or getting in other people’s way... the higher you climb, the more your enemies...




7. YOU ARE NOT SPECIAL
You could be intelligent, smart, you could be lucky with opportunities but never proclaim yourself special in mind or in words. There are thousands who are better than you, you are only priveledged and not special. The same cancer that killed that guy can also kill you, the same accident that killed that girl can also kill you, you fall from the 5th floor you get broken to pieces, you get bitten by a venomous snake you die.
You are nothing but just a man working to enjoy life just like others




8. BEING TO KIND IS A WEAKNESS
“Bro please can I borrow you laptop?”
“I’m sorry you can’t”
“Please bro... I need to get this project done”
“I don’t give out my office... this is where I do my business”
“So you can’t help a brother”
“Sorry I can’t... go to a cyber cafe”...
What if you give out your laptop and it gets stolen, what would you do?
Too much of everything is bad... if you give women too muc h attention, you will begin to look like shit to them.
If you do not know how to say “No” you become used by others who would take advantage of your kindness
You must learn to say “NO” when its necessary and it must be confidently and firmly...
Saying yes to every Tom, Dick and Harry can lead to your own detriment and get you off success track




9. SUCCESS IS NOT ACHIEVED BY HARD WORK
The truth is, not every one will make it in life, this is because many are busy working hard not smart

You want to be a CEO? You want to be the boss? Then you must quit working hard and start working smart.
If hard work is the road to success, brick layers, conductors, street hawkers will all be rich because these people are hard workers
I knew of a woman who owned a large fashion firm with over 20 employees but funny enough she doesn't know how to pedal a sewing machine... hard workers will forever remain employees and not employers.

You cannot be a CEO if you are not smart




I pity slothful people; if hard workers are still struggling to get out of poverty I wonder what would be the fate of the lazy man


For every success you define, there are techniques and strategies to achieving them but you must also understand the essence of PATIENCE...

Thats why sometimes I miss the good old days I used to hear about in stories. Where a herbalist will tell you what you are meant to do with your life. It helps a lot not to waste someone's life, studying accounting when the person is meant to be a doctor. We cant be throwing shit at the wall and hoping one sticks, no time for that.

These white men have come and brain washed us with nonsense religions of all types. Made our tradition look evil (although most no dey try na so so bad bad people full there). But our tradition is also meant for our success in life (if channeled properly).

Personally success varies from person to person.

Success to someone might mean having a loving family
Success to another is having a child with money to take care of her

Success to someone might mean getting plenty certificate....OND, HND, PHD, GCE, HIV grin
While Sucess to another might mean having papers to properties e.g Deed of Assignment, allocation, shares

So the thing get as e be. So you cant give one advice/rule or any map to success.
