Looking at people who have achieved heights incommensurable with ordinary mortals, many think that they have some kind of secret knowledge, which, with a wave of a magic wand, lifted them to the top. But such an idea: a) is erroneous and b) makes you give up. Perhaps there is some luck in their success, but as Paulo Coelho said in The Alchemist: "Life is indeed generous to those who follow Their Paths." Success awaits everyone only on the way to himself
How do you see yourself ideally? Strong, confident, uncompromising? Yes, such qualities will help to move mountains, but this is not all that is worth striving for. After all, be you at least a hundredfold confident and absolutely uncompromising, without the ability to dream, work, think, these qualities will remain an empty ballast. It turns out that our ideas even about ourselves often have nothing to do with reality.
So what are they, people who reach great heights in any field - be it business, art, science?
Thinking outside the box
First, they abandon stereotypes. They are not satisfied with herd thinking. Their curiosity knows no bounds. They can question what millions are confident in, they need to know the causes of the phenomena. It is this kind of thinking that gets rid of the fear of the unknown, which paralyzes the majority. They test any knowledge for strength. And only after everything is thoroughly checked, they take it into service.
Dreaminess
Secondly, they are dreamers. They do not listen to the assurances of the fatalists about the predestination of fate. They reject safety for the sake of a great dream. Dreamers would rather take risks than enjoy the present state of affairs. They are not happy with what they have, and they believe in the reality of what is impossible for others. And most importantly, they turn the wildest dreams into reality, reaching for the stars while others seek happiness under their feet.
Ability to work and rest
Third, they are great workers. They know that there are no quick ways to get a certain good, they greeted the dawn with impatience, because today they will take another step towards their dream. They love their work, do not like to waste time, but they know how to find a balance between rest and work, family and the work of their life.
Responsibility
Fourth, these are leaders. No, they were not born with a banner in their hands. Nobody raised them to the top and it doesn't matter to them what rank they are in now. They bring people the belief in a better way, that the impossible is possible, and prove it by their deeds, which makes other people follow them.
These are the qualities that distinguish professionals in any business. It turns out that the main thing on the way to success is to have a dream, make daily efforts to achieve it, find non-standard ways to solve problems and carry people their mission, helping them find their purpose.
And there is no secret in this.
