Why are most people unsuccessful?

Primarily, it’s a problem of mindset.

Most people tend to think of life as happening to them, they have little or no control over the world and their life.

The first thing you need to do to be successful is to own your life. Take responsibility for it, and understand that your current situation is a direct result of your past actions.

Most people are unable to do that. When you ask them why they are not successful, they will give you a list of external factors, portraying it as if they had no control over the direction their life has taken.

While no matter how adverse the background conditions are, you can always find people who overcame them and became successful.

Those people who became successful, are the ones who took ownership of their life, and made a conscious decision to change their situation.

Taking ownership of your life is a truly empowering position to take – it means that you can change your life at the stroke of a decision and some actions.

But most people are happy to be comfortable, “safe”, reactive and unsuccessful.

Be different!

Say “I am the direct result of my past actions, and I can change my situation with my future actions”.

Hope that helps
