3 Basic Steps to Success in Anything
by Daniel N. Brown
Since belief always precedes action, simply changing your beliefs
can change your actions to those that will result in making your
dreams a reality.
It's not complicated at all. In fact, taking these three basic
steps can make anyone a winner in their chosen endeavors.
1. Control and direct your thoughts.
It's a decision you make concerning what you think about. So
whether you think success, or failure, that's what you will
eventually reap.
Thoughts are powerful forces of energy and can only come from
your own mind. Since you are the only person in charge of your
mind, you create the thoughts that create the circumstances in
your life. Since your thoughts create reality, you create your
reality.
Just as the conscience mind is the source of thought, so the
subconscious mind is the source of power. You give instructions
to your subconscious mind through your thoughts. It doesn't know
good from bad or right from wrong. It only follows your
instructions, which are your thoughts. It will create anything
you tell it.
Now, have you given some definite directed thought to your
purpose or your mission? If so, is it written down? Without
directed thought aimed at your purpose and goals in writing you
are like the proverbial "ship without a rudder," wandering
everywhere while going nowhere.
James 1:6-8 says, "He that wavereth is like a wave of the sea
driven with the wind and tossed. Let not that man think that he
shall receive any thing of the Lord, for a double minded man is
unstable in all his ways."
2. Don't worry about the "how-to."
A big mistake is trying to figure out how you are going to do
something before you do it. Start by believing you can do
something and the "how-to" will follow.
Strong belief triggers the mind to figuring ways and means and
the "how-to." So, the simplest way to do anything is to hold a
mental picture of what you want as long as possible and as often
as possible. Feel that you already have what you desire with
certainty and you will see the "how to do it" become manifested.
Because our thoughts are vibrating energy, we create what we want
by focusing our thoughts on those things. Jesus said in Mark
9:23, "According to your faith, be it done unto you."
3. Get going.
You're simply not committed until you take action. James 2:26
says, "Faith without works is dead."
There is a cause and effect to everything. You think a thought,
and then you decide whether or not to act upon it. If you act
upon it, there will be a result. If you do not act upon it, there
will be a result.
Many times, we are forced to make choices without knowing the
exact outcome. Should we remain undecisive in those cases? No
choice is a choice, and there will be a result.
Don't be afraid of taking action. Be in control of your life!
Think positive thoughts, come up with ideas, seek advice from
Godly people who are on the same page, spend time with God and
seek His council, and then act!
Within you right now is the power to do things you never dreamed
possible. This power becomes available to you just as soon as you
change your beliefs.
