“without a
mentor your very best thinking has got you exactly where you are today every
single person that succeeds has a mentor,” says
Raymond Aaron.
“it is
crazy, in today’s world, to be going for the ‘trial and error’ approach to
business. Just get a mentor and follow a proven success formula!”, says
Armand Morin.
The most effective methods of becoming successful in whatever
it is you want to achieve, is to copy those who are already successful in your
eyes. Success is subjective because its definition is different to everyone. If
success means doing well at work, being financially independent, or a good
parent, then finding people who have already achieved such success should be
your first goal.
Surround yourself with successful people. The best way to
become successful is to be in the proximity of success on a daily basis. This
may seem pretentious, but the reality is that successful people lead the kind
of life that you want to be a part of, so it is essential that you too be
surrounded in such a lifestyle.
Watch, listen to, and learn from the successful so that you
can recognize how successful people talk, think, and behave. Additionally, you
will come to identify the cause and effect of certain actions. This is a major
learning tool if you want to be successful yourself one day.
Emulate the habits of successful people so that you too get
positive results. Successful people have a certain way of doing things and if
you copy these habits, they will become ingrained in you and eventually become
second nature. For example, talking a certain way or interacting with other
people can be habits that lead to certain successes.
Read the success stories of others, especially those that you
admire who rose to the top from poorer or less successful beginnings. By doing
so, you will recognize a similarity between you and the successful, thus making
your own success feel more plausible in your own eyes.
Learn even from the failures of others. Success is often
followed by numerous occasions of failure, so find out the bad and the good
behind each success story. With such knowledge, you will be less likely to get
depressed if you yourself fail on occasion, and you may even be able to avoid
certain pitfalls by seeing them foreshadowed in the stories of others.
Continue to learn, and never assume that you know everything.
Such arrogance can easily cloud your ability to remain ahead of the game. A
successful person is always learning from their mentors. When you feel you have
gained as much knowledge from your circle of successful people, expand your
social network by inviting even more success into it.
Becoming a millionaire is no longer an unrealistic dream.
Becoming a self-made millionaire has never been an easy feat, but it is
certainly possible if you are willing to make the sacrifices and changes
necessary to reach this financial goal.
