Failure is not an option, it is not an outcome of possibility for people wishing to live at an exceptional standard, to live their dream life. For those of you aiming for the extraordinary, you must banish any concept of failure entirely from your consciousness. This is the best advice that I could possibly give to anybody. Assuredly there will be temporary setbacks, obstacles and road blocks, but this does not amount to defeat, it amounts to an exercise of inventiveness and mental toughness. You may lose a battle from time to time, but you will not lose the war! If you desire a life that is exceptional, then it stands to reason that it will take exceptional measures to achieve that. To be more than average you must behave in a way that transcends the average, begin this by adopting the philosophy that failure is impossible (because it is). Here are a few more suggestions that will make failure a disease of the past for you.
Live with passion
Let everything you do be with passion, conviction and determination. Passion is magnetic and will attract to it a number of good things. Determination is a top shelf emotion and will attract to it other top shelf emotions. Failure cannot possibly stand in the face of passion and determination.
Develop focus
Focus on what you want and how to get it. You don’t learn about flotation by studying sinking. You learn about flotation by study flotation. Decide what you want then focus like a laser beam on it. Learn how to achieve success, not avoid failure.
Study success
Success is no accident, study it, learn the secrets and then apply them and prosper.
Pick carefully the company you keep
When you buy somebody’s opinion, you buy there lifestyle. If the lifestyle of the people you keep the company of is not appealing, change your company. Don’t keep the company of those who embrace failure and seek it out. The majority of good people look for reasons why something will not work. You must look for the reasons why it will work. This is your task.
All of these small yet huge changes in thinking will bring about fantastic results. The world is knocking on the door of anybody that wishes to open it and enjoy a fuller life, just remember…failure is not an option.
