So Why Aren't You Successful?

During the last 5 years in speaking in front of thousands of individuals, I have always asked this question: "How many of you wish to be failures?" Surprisingly enough, no hands are raised. Then I have asked: "How many of you wish to be successful?" All hands are raised high. So, if success is something that everyone wants, then why isn't there more success?

Pretty simple question isn't it?

I believe that the answer is that most people fear success more than they fear failure. For them, the fear of failure is where they are currently living. This Island of Fear is full of other individuals just like them who also share a fear of success. Everyone talks about being more successful, but very few are.

To achieve success means that you must cross the sea of "What Ifs". The "What Ifs" are the possibilities of achieving success.

• What if I get all those sales orders?
• What if they really like me?
• What if….?

• Would of
• Could of
• Should of
• Maybe
• Think
• Might
• Try
