<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Thousands of books have been
written on the secrets of success till date. Today virtually there remained no secrets
to achieve success. Even though, all the people are not equally successful in
their lives. The reason is people have to find out their secrets of success by
themselves, which is not easy. To find out their own secrets they need
assistance and direction. Without direction and guidance the talents will be
wasted. This writing will help you not only to understand yourself but also
others whomever you want to assess. You will be learning to know how competent
you are and what are the areas you need to develop your competencies for
achieving super success.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Why most of the people fail in their lives? Why they
fail to achieve the success they desire even though they possess all
qualifications, merit and talents? It is because they do not know themselves.
They do not know their traits, skills, capacities and competencies. Once a
person will understand his competencies and the areas where he is lacking his
competencies, he can truly recognize himself. He will understand where he
should focus his energy for his growth and development. Therefore understanding
and analysing the competencies of oneself is the only gateway to super success.
Here in this writing I am going to share with you all the secrets that can make
you successful in your life. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Determining goals is a prerequisite
to success. Before determining your goals you have to know that whether you
possess the qualities to achieve the goals that want to set. Are you competent
enough to achieve your goals? The competencies only will boost your confidence
to achieve your goals. Therefore before you determine your goals, know your
competencies. After knowing your competencies only you can set proper goals in
your life. Following are some of the types of competencies:<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 150%;">This is a very important area where most of the
people fail. We must understand our strengths and weaknesses as well. We must
know the areas where we need growth. If we do not develop those areas, we will
not be able to achieve our goals.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-left: 36.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36.0pt; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 150%;">To develop your
intellectual competencies you have to acquire the required information. You
need to learn to analyse the problems critically to find out a suitable
solution. You have to develop the habit of continuous learning.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-left: 36.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36.0pt; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 150%;">To develop your
critical thinking you have to practice reasoning. Solve reasoning problems on a
daily or weekly basis to sharpen your critical and analytical thinking. You
will be able to find out the answer of the problems you face in your life and
workplace.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span>Develop the habit of studying
books that will help you to reach your goal.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

skill is very important for life. As author Alan Lakein said, “Planning is
bringing the future into the present so that you can do something about it
now.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 150%;">To develop our
emotional competencies we need to learn to befriend our emotions. You need to
practice self-discipline and tremendous self-control. Without self-control you
can’t expect your desired success. You should be firm in your resolutions and
principles. You should follow your ideals always at any cost.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-left: 36.0pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36.0pt; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">

<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Your most important work is to find
out the activities or practices that will lead you closer to your goals. After
finding out the practices you have to make union with them. You have to
integrate yourself with the practices which will develop your competencies to
such a level that success will come to you spontaneously. You have to work
hard. You have to make ‘working hard to the level of your goals’ a spontaneous
process so that every achievement will become ‘spontaneous’ for you. This is
the simple and the biggest secret of my teaching. Anybody can achieve any goal
provided he can integrate himself in the process and loss himself in them.
Success is bound to follow.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 150%;">You have to focus on your goals if you want to
achieve it. To stay focussed you have to stay motivated. Find enough motivation
for yourself to achieve your goal. Never allow your goals to remain out of your
sight. See your goals everywhere. Think of your goals. Dream of your goals. Most
importantly find a Mentor who can actually help you to realize your goals.<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><o:p></o:p></b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36.0pt; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 150%;">In
the Conclusion:<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-left: 36.0pt; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 150%;">To develop your competencies you
have to know ‘where to focus’; you have to know ‘what your goals are.’ Moreover
you also have to find out the things that distracts you from your goal. Otherwise
unconsciously you will be distracting yourself from your goals. If you get
distracted you will reach nowhere. Develop your competencies to the level of
your goals. Speed doesn’t matter but direction matters a lot. You have to raise
your level of performance to that extent so that success will become a
spontaneous process for you. I want to conclude with the quote of Friedrich
Hegel, “A man who has work that suits him, and a wife whom he loves, has
squared his accounts with life.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
<div style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36.0pt; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<o:p></o:p><span style="font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 150%;">The first and the foremost
requirement to develop self-confidence is to be true to oneself. Be true to
oneself means that you keep your promises and the commitments you make to
yourself pertaining to your life. You can only be true to yourself if you know what
you want from your life. What you want to become? What is your aim in life?
Then only you will recognize the direction towards which you are moving in your
life. You cannot develop confidence without achievements. You need to increase
your achievements to develop self-confidence. Therefore work every single day
to achieve daily small success.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<o:p></o:p><span style="font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Do not break other people’s faith on
you.  I mean other people’s faith only in the positive aspects. When
you keep your promises made to other people, they will put more trust upon you.
Other people’s trust upon you is an indication that you are reliable and
trustworthy, which in turn will make you feel happy and increase your faith
upon you.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<o:p></o:p><span style="font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 150%;">How to remain true to yourself? What
direction should you follow? What will be the yardsticks? All these will be
determined by the aim that you decide for your life. The aim in life is the
only yardstick through which you can measure whether you are on the right track or
out of track. If you are on the right track and moving ahead per day, your
faith and confidence on yourself will be increased bit by bit every single day.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

developing your competence in a particular direction.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
<div style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36.0pt; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<o:p></o:p><span style="font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 150%;">How to assess your progress? You can
assess your progress by means of your <a href="https://www.mydearstudents.in/2018/07/success-with-help-of-your-daily-routine.html">daily
routine</a>. Choose activities that if you practice every day will move you
nearer to your goal. Do not keep any contradictory activities that move you
away from your goal. Therefore you need to recognise your emotion and passion,
that which if you provide direction in your life will lead you to your
destination. REMEMBER - Your daily routine only will decide, whether you can
achieve your goal or not. Therefore choose your daily activities corresponding
to your life’s programme. No need to study hundreds of books. Study your
actions cautiously. Work performed in the right manner can free you from all
miseries. You are what you repeatedly do. The key to design your future is to
take control of the present moment and utilize it to achieve your goals.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<o:p></o:p>

<br />
<div style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 45.25pt; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<o:p></o:p><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 150%;">5. Break your routine once a
week:</span></b><span style="font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 150%;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<o:p></o:p>

<br />
<div style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36.0pt; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<o:p></o:p><span style="font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 150%;">It is important that our daily
routine must be carried out because it leads to our goal. But while doing your
daily activities regularly without any break will make you slave of those
activities and then you will develop a mechanical tendency to follow or perform
those activities. So breaking the routine once or twice in a week is also as
important as following the routine. I am sharing with you only from my personal
experience. Rules are meant for our upliftment. But we must ourselves be free
from those rules. Rules or activities must not be allowed to rule us. If you
continue to maintain your routine for say one month or a year, then you will
not remain under your control and you will lose the freedom to decide. <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #00b0f0;">REMEMBER THIS</span></b>. Initially our desire for
achievement becomes very strong and so we develop a tendency to work more.
Believe me, I am insisting here to make your life a spontaneous activity where
you must have scope to enjoy everything that you need to. You will realize
later on that positivity and negativity both are equally important in our life
for our survival. Evil exists to glorify the good. <span style="color: red;">Problems exist to glorify the Hero</span>.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<o:p></o:p>

<br />
<div style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36.0pt; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<o:p></o:p><span style="font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Therefore, choose any day in the week
and break the routine. Break all the rules voluntarily. Enjoy the freedom from
the daily routine. Be FREE, Feel FREE. Allow only freedom and nothing else. Be
the king for that day and celebrate. While ending the day remember, tomorrow
you have to wake up with the routine. If you break the routine or activities
again and begin to celebrate, you will go away from your destiny. If you
persist breaking the routine, then remember you will never reach your goal or
aim in life. Conditions will control you, you will become slave to the
conditions and you will not have the power to control your Conditions. <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #00b0f0;">To become FREE you have to work incessantly.</span></b><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<o:p></o:p><span style="font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 150%;">You can break your routine. You can
give up your practice for a day. But never give up your beliefs. Never give up
faith. The moment you give up faith, that moment will decide the end of your
destiny. Faith is the essence. So always stick to your principles and practices
in a bull like tenacity.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<o:p></o:p><span style="font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Journaling or <a href="https://www.mydearstudents.in/2018/06/success-with-help-of-diary.html">keeping
a diary</a> is very  important. Jot down your entire journey of the
day in the evening after your routine work is over. This is very important as
it is a reflection of the activities that you have done and you can also
contemplate upon it. Whatever you have done is right or wrong? Is there any
other effective way to get the things done? Can I introduce more innovation in
my work? These things need to be ponder upon and cogitate seriously. All these
should be written down properly so that whenever if you want to check your activities
you can find it out, where the mistakes are lying down! <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #3b3835; font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 150%;">  </span><span style="font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Keeping a personal journal will put
you in control of your life. Many times we believe things happen to us and we
have no control or we just go through life without any thoughts of working
towards something. With a journal we get a clear insight into where we are
going and where we have come from, giving us an opportunity to change our path
if we don’t like what we experience.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

work’ that make a person free from all miseries. Our future is determined by
our work. When you are doing a work with full concentration and devotion, the
outcome is marvellous. Means to the work is very important then the result.
Result will automatically follow provided you have done justice to the work. It
is said, ‘as you sow, so you reap’. So when you devote yourself to the work
wholeheartedly, you are bound to get the desired result. When you get the
result as desired, it will develop faith in yourself.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Never depend upon others for the work that needs to be done by you. Put extra
effort. Do your duty by yourself. When you are asking others to do your duty,
you are relying upon others. When you rely on others, you become dependent on
them. If the nature of the work allows others to do the work, that is not a
matter of concern. What I am referring is what to be done by yourself only
should not be given to others. This will lead to procrastination, unnecessary
delay in the work, violation of promises, confusion, irritation, anger etc.
which is self-destructive.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
