In today's fast paced competitive world we tend to rush from one point to the next. Learning to 'multitask' is beneficial for your assistant, but can be deadly to the successes you are endeavoring to achieve. When you look at successful people you know or have learned about you immediately recognize that they are genuinely, singly focused on their objective. Coming to the realization that you need to steadfastly focus on your ultimate goal is only the beginning.

So what is the next step? Picture yourself with the prize! No matter how silly or how trivial you may think it is, the simple act of creating a visual image of yourself having successfully achieved your objective and looking at it every day can purposely effect an observable sense of success. If your ambition is to be the top sales rep for your company or become the champion of the Indy 500, make it a fact in your mind; accept no excuses.

Now that you have that winning posture displayed on your bathroom mirror, on the partition of your cubicle or somewhere you will notice it often throughout the day; are you prepared to truly commit to win?

To be successful you must persistently remain focused on your goal. Easy for me to say but hard for you to do, you might sincerely believe. Do you think that you're not special enough to literally make your dream a reality? Even the slightest doubt can steel your prize away. Often in life we are thrown off track by this obstacle or that challenge. It is when you allow 'things' to get in your way that you loose your central focus. Take your example from the hurdler, jump over it and keep going.

Think, eat and sleep success! Commit to win! As you set about making your dream a reality you will come across naysayers that will try to steal your vision. Turn and run; don't look back!

If you are in sales you’ve probably heard of the ‘Law of Averages'. What is being referred to here is the ‘Law of Large Numbers'. This law states that everything will ultimately 'average out' or 'what goes around, come around'. Therefore, if you are steadfastly endeavoring to be the number one salesperson, don't be thwarted by those that say ‘no'. Look at each and every ‘no' as one less that you need to get in order to achieve a ‘yes'. After each and every ‘no' look up at the sky, snap your fingers and cry 'NEXT!'

Now, discipline and skill will be the tools you need to acquire. Even the most successful person you know, initially began their journey with exactly the same chance of success as you have now. They, likely, sought out a mentor, someone who could adequately supply them with effective training and hone their skills until they too could achieve their goal. Do you really want a coach that will embrace you and tell you how wonderful you are or one that hones your ability and fervently incites you to be the best you can be? Embrace your failures; learn from your mistakes and steadfastly determine to accept nothing but victory.

These are all essential steps to achieve ultimate success. Omitting or ‘short-cutting' just one of them can significantly hamper your success journey. Whether ballroom dancer or business owner, training for the Olympics or learning a profession, the one that walks away with the 'gold' is the one that is decisively committed to win. I challenge you to formally establish your goal, envision yourself as having successfully achieved it and commit to win!
