F2FA August 16, 2016

With the 2016 Olympics underway, millions of viewers across the world are witnessing the top athletes succeed across a wide array of sports. Irrespective of whether you are looking to become successful in business, your relationship, or even your own sport of choice, here are seven qualities you can use to get you closer to enjoying the fruits of your own labor.

  1. Aspiration. Have you ever asked yourself the question: “What am I working toward?” “What is my goal or objective in this relationship, business or sport?” You can’t succeed without an aim in life. If you really want to succeed in whatever you do, you need to aspire to be the best at it and to reach for the top. Whether you’re looking for love in a relationship or you aspire to win a gold medal in your sport, goals and objectives help keep us all on the path to success…so aspire!
  2. Passion. You need passion to succeed in life. If you don’t feel enthusiastic about what you do, you definitely won’t go far! So pay attention to what moves you and see how you can incorporate that passion in to your everyday life.
  3. Perseverance. You must be determined to hang on, no matter what happens. If what you desire is success, you need persistence in your course of action, especially in the face of difficulties, obstacles, or discouragement. Winners never give up. They have that never-say-die spirit. And those who win in their relationships never give up on love.
  4. Resilience. Does failure bend or break you? Keep going, because you can do it. Yes, you can! According to Merriam Webster, resilience is defined as “the ability to become strong, healthy, or successful again after something bad happens.” Stress and adversity can come in the shape of familial, relationship, health, or financial problems, among others.Just as with the other qualities above, resilience is vital to success. Your ability to bounce back or rise up again and again after falling is indeed what champions are made of. Learn from failures and take calculated risks. As long as you’re not afraid of falling, you will get to the top.
  5. Love. You need to find what you love and love what you do before you can really succeed or be happy in it. Without love for your sport or business, relationship, or marriage, you will never find the true fulfillment that you seek.
  6. Inspiration. In your pursuit of excellence, pay attention to what inspires or motivates you. Whether it is positive people, stirring self-help books, or the Most High, accumulate the lights in your life so that you can recharge your batteries when the going gets tough.
  7. Patience. They say that Rome was not built in a day. So you need to realize that success at anything takes time and effort. Therefore, you need to patiently keep striving until you achieve your goals. If you’re not ready to endure suffering, it means that you’re not ready to succeed, because the road to success is paved with long-suffering. There will be no crown without a cross, and no glory without pain or hard work.

Applying these seven qualities to your life will make you achieve great success. I wish you the best in all that you do!
