Mindful Motivation: There are No Secrets to Success

By Aman Prakash|Updated : August 5th, 2021

There is no easy way. Even the people who got a ‘lucky break’ were simply prepared when the opportunity came by. Nothing less. And the more prepared you are, and the harder you work, the luckier you’ll be.

There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure ~Colin Powell

Most people try to find the magic bullet, the easy way, or the shortcut. They dream of immediate success, a moment of eureka that will open the door of the elevator which will lead them directly to the top. Today people seem to lose the meaning of 'Persistence' or 'Determination' and they have become fancy words that you find occasionally in some random article you are reading online.

The last partis paramount. You can work hard, build up your strength, prepare every morning for the attempt, but if you’re pushing a door that says ‘pull’ and never learn, your chance of success is pretty much zero.

Lots of people prepare for what they want to do that is usually the easiest part of the job. But if they don’t learn from their experiences, they will continue to fail. Fewer people will truly work hard. They’ll build strength, endurance, strategy, and all sorts of tricky skills. But if they don’t learn from their experiences, they will continue to fail.

A person, with a bit of basic preparation and a willingness to work, a person who is willing to learn can get a great deal accomplished. By learning from their experiences, failures become stepping stones to success. If you can stay with it, persevere in face of repeated failures (and learn from each one), there is very little limit to what you can accomplish.

  • Is something happening inside you today that really isn’t what you want in your life?

  • A situation that is not just an unfavorable circumstance, but something that causes you internal pain?

Do you feel like you’re in a dark hole at times and can’t climb out?

  • How could you ever understand feeling good from feeling bad, if you only know the good all the time? What lessons could you learn? Is there a specific reason why failure strikes?

  • Life is so that every so often tragedy strikes. It frequently is when you think everything is going great that your world tumbles down. Yet, the best way to look at dark times is to understand that there are no endings but only new beginnings. So, without darkness, there is no light.

  • Wherever you look, everything has an opposite in this universe. So, no matter how much you want only great things to happen to you and be happy go lucky all the time, life does not work that way. It is persistently made of ups and downs and highs and lows. But adverse life events always bring a possibility for you to grow, change and be better.

  • In our lives, when we are going through difficult moments, it is true that we have a tendency to more easily focus on all the negative things that are going on. But one day, the rain will stop falling, and a rainbow will take its place. So, it is the reason why you need to remember that stars can't shine without darkness.

It's important to realize that anything truly worth having in this life is going to be hard and sometimes we may have to fail hundreds of times before we break through and succeed.
