My Thoughts On Achievement

At a recent orientation with the Dale Carnegie Training organization, I learned some across crucial elements to achievement and they are Knowledge, Skill, Attitude.
Once you gain the clarity to know what you want, these elements can be a very useful guide to help you get there quickly by eliminating much of the guesswork out of achievement. Simply recognize what knowledge you are seeking on a macro and micro level. Then, determine what skills you will need to succeed. As you practice the skills and get better, they become permanent but before they do; there will be inevitable setbacks, disappointments along the way. Expect it but also embrace it. This is where attitude comes in- unwavering faith, commitment, boldness, courage, AND certainly PATIENCE. This is the process I took home with me recently. This is the process I wish to share with you. Finally, don't let results dictate your worth. The truth is that you are priceless. Accept the truth and charge forward knowing that the real secret to success was, is, and always be inside of you.
