It all starts with a choice

 Success is a term that has definitions unique to each individual. Every successful entrepreneur, businessman or professional that I have ever spoken with about the secret to their success all agreed on one fundamental concept - CHOICE. You have to choose to be successful. Once you have made the conscious decision that you want to be successful, you have already conquered the first step to success.

Every day we make choices - what to wear, what to eat, who to talk to, where to go; we live our lives by making choices. Success is a necessary part of that decision making process. By not choosing to be successful you will live your life void of determining your future. I don't know of anyone in my encounters who has decided not to be successful. It is the degree of success that varies with each decision. For example - I want to get up at 6:30am tomorrow, have my breakfast, get dressed and be out the door on my way to my meeting by 8:00am. I accomplish this. There is an achievement of success. Well maybe my next success choice is that I want to write a book that is going to make me a million dollars. Is this choice achievable? Absolutely! But you have to choose to do it while taking the necessary steps that will help you to achieve that success.

Most people achieve success because of a combination of choice, a positive attitude and research. Reaching any level of success requires setting goals and putting action into play to achieve those goals.

No matter how big or small, simplistic or complicated your desired level of success is, it all starts with a choice.
