Henry David Thoreau once stated that "Men are born to succeed, not to fail".
Your definition of success may have many different PERSPECTIVES which are all subject to the dreams, goals, and desires OF you, THE INDIVIDUAL.
While your true defintion of success may not necessarily be determined by FINANCIAL GAIN, it would be irreverent to deny that all of us seek at a mininum some positive form of monetary COMPENSATION FOR the EFFORTS that we put forth.
"Money is the root of all evil" has been MISQUOTED for centuries!
If we maintain a genuine understanding that in our present culture money is the MEDIUM that we use TO OBTAIN those desired goals and dreams, then we have a foundation upon which to build A FUTURE we can be proud of.
Many people define their success on RELATIONSHIPS with the people that mean the most to them.
Reality tells us that, even in the simplest terms, money is a KEY FACTOR in establishing and maintaining those cherished relationships.
That phone call you make, that personal visit, or even that romantic evening, all require the "cash" to MAKE IT HAPPEN.
Anyone that doesn't understand how this is true has probably been living in a cave for decades.
NEVER ever demean yourself for trying to improve your financial situation.
Change your mind, change your attitude, change your life... Simple, yet extremely EFFECTIVE WORDS.
Thousands of articles have been written on the subject, and their are thousands of indivduals who are LIVING TESTIMONY to the fact that changes in our thinking can result in drastic changes in the direction and outcome of our lives.
We are a product of the INPUT we receive on a continual daily basis.
Much like the familiar computer terminology, "garbage in, garbage out", the information that we thought process every day CONSTANTLY AFFECTS how we act, how we feel, and how we deal with the world that surrounds us.
The key is to understand that the overload of imput we receive from early childhood to the present day directly IMPACTS on our current thoughts and attitudes.
That first "no", "you can't", and the continual glut of NEGATIVITY bombards our thinking so much that we're usually not even aware of the effects.
So just like the computer that has frequent glitches, many of us are in dire need of "REPROGRAMMING".
Fortunately, the fact that you're reading this article shows you have a DESIRE to make those changes for the betterment of your life.
This effort, with some gentle coaching and reinforcement, will become the rudder that steers you in a PROACTIVE "success driven" DIRECTION.
