What are the factors that prevent you from achieving success in life?
Let me share with you 5 main culprit factors. Overcome it and be self empowered to achieve any goals set.
1. Limiting Beliefs
Each of us has something hidden deep inside us that hold us from setting our goal and achieving it which is called "Limiting Belief". Just picking out some belief to share with you:
I'm not good enough
I will never be rich
I will never
It's too late for me to do. (anything)
And many others
Are you somehow guilty of harbouring one of these limiting belief or maybe more?
In order to move one big step to achieving success in life, we must overcome and break away from this belief. Remember this "Life is by design and not by default"
2. "They don't know what they want"
Let's conduct a test now, go around and ask your friend this question "What do they want to achieve in life" I bet you will get most replies like "Hmm I don't know what I want"
But are we really unsure what we want in life? Think about it. Do you still recall during your childhood time 20-30 years ago, we have dream on what we want to be when we grow up and you can see how imaginative you can get? When we grow older and met with failure and disappointment along the different stages of life, we do not dare to dream anymore
Whenever we got excited about some goals, there will always be an inner self talking to you "You cannot do it, be realistic, stop dreaming and wake up!" As a result, our dream just dies off and slips away from us. We must learn how to unlock this limitation and imagination in order to achieve our goal.
3. Fear of Failure
The bad feeling of failure, disappointment and rejection has even stopped many people from taking the first step. They will think "If I don't try, I will not encounter any failure, why take the risk?" They will tend to avoid failure.
We need to change how we perceive failure; we must treat it as a feedback to re-strategize our approach. We must appreciate these feedbacks; they are good and learn from them to empower you to become better.
4. Stuck in their comfort zone
Most people are risk averse because they are already in their comfort zone and they hate changes or taking risks. There are no short-cut in life, so if you want success in your life, relationship, health and etc, you need to get out of the comfort zone and you will get the rewards eventually.
5. Goal setting does not work
Last but not least, it is the goal or target people set do not work out to their expectation, so they give up which lead them to failure. Remember this phase "Failure is impossible unless you gave up"
