How To Achieve the Results You Want in Life

If asked, “Do you know how to achieve the results you want in life?” How would you answer?

If then asked, “Are you as successful or happy as you want to be?” How would you answer those questions?

We’ve all heard the saying that happiness is an inside job! If that’s true, why are there so many unhappy people in this world? To watch or listen to the media you would think Armageddon is unfolding and we’re moments away from destruction and death!

People become discontent when they don’t achieve the results they want in life. The cause may be a lack of: money, success, fame, love, respect or anything else they believe they feel they should have. Unhappiness is the result of the disparity between what they have and what they believe they should have.

Stop Giving Your Power Away

When you look outside of yourself to measure your level of happiness, success, wealth, acceptance, or self-worth, you are giving your power away.

There are those who want you to believe you need them to live, to protect you, to provide for you, or make you happy. What they really want is for you to think you need them or must rely on them.  Which sounds great, if you don’t want to take 100% responsibility for yourself or the results in your life. At least now you can blame others if you don’t achieve the results you want in life.

Owning your power means you take 100% responsibility for everything in your life. It means that instead of expecting others to change, you change. Start by looking at the actions you take and how they create the results you want in life. If you really want to unleash your power, take a look behind your behaviors and examine the beliefs that are driving your  actions. You will find that in some cases, the underlying belief is in direct conflict with the results you want to achieve. For example, you will never achieve financial success, if the underlying belief is that you don’t deserve it.

So how can you start taking back your power?

Below is a list of 10 powerful questions for you to answer. After reading the list, pick one and focus on it for the next 30 days and watch what unfolds in your life.
