"Success is often the result of taking a
misstep in the right direction." ~ Al Berstein
Good
morning!
Did you know
that Levi Strauss was
originally a tent maker in the 1850s?
He
used a heavy-duty denim fabric he had invented to make tents to make
blue
jeans. He failed at
his tent-making
endeavor. I wonder
what we would all be
wearing if he had succeeded.
I love hidden
success stories. Most
success storied are journeys that
include obstacles, “failures,” detours, roadblocks, and road bumps. But obstacles, “failures,”
detours,
roadblocks, and road bumps are key
ingredients to success.
We can’t get
to success in a professional endeavor without these ingredients. Roadblocks and the like
teach us to stretch
our thinking, reframe our situations, and expand our possibilities.
If I were the
editor of the
dictionary, I would define success as a series of mistakes, small
steps,
accomplishments, detours, roadblocks, dreams, and persistence that
eventually
deliver us to a desired goal.
Perhaps if we
expected these
sidesteps, we could accept them instead of thinking they were reasons
to
abandon a goal. They
aren’t! They are
just another step toward the end
result.
Your Turn:
Post this new
definition of success
somewhere you will see it regularly: “Success is a series of mistakes,
small
steps, accomplishments, detours, roadblocks, dreams, and persistence
that
eventually deliver us to a desired goal.
Your
affirmation: There is no
such thing as a setback. A
setback is a
necessary ingredient in the recipe of success.
And as always,
don't forget to
start your day with a heartfelt: "Something great is
going to
happen today... I can't wait to see what it is!"
And
when ending
your day ask yourself: "What is one more thing I can do
to
make today matter?
