Super Achievement Requires Focus and Momentum
Posted By Noctis Enoch On March 28, 2008 @ 11:11 am In Uncategorized | Comments Disabled
When it comes to effortless achievement, there is the paradox of effort and effortlessness. Some of us mistaken what effort and effortlessness really mean. Effortlessness does not mean without effort. It means without excessive effort. We still need effort but it is inspired effort. When we are inspired to do something, there’s effort that we can put into the fulfillment of our inspired goal. Effort is required because it is the act of channeling energy into our manifestation. Put in maximum effort in an effortless manner.
It is so easy to procrastinate and postpone from doing work that is important. Work requires effort and it doesn’t get done unless we put ourselves to it. Each act of leaving work for a later time is an act of delaying success. Every time you do what needs to be done, you are setting the stage for further progress. Work done has a cumulative effect. Something accomplished is worth more than twice the absence of its accomplishment. Those that do not avoid effort when required are capable of rising to the peak.
Success is something that you have to constantly create. It is not a one time accomplishment where once achieved, would remain with you perpetually. When success is not continually created, failure would soon take its place. Success is a state of being and doing. To get to the peak, you must keep climbing. When you stop, you slide all the way down. Everything moves and nothing rests. If you’re not moving up, you’re moving down. Upward motion requires effort. Constant effort is needed to stay at the top.

Most people do not realize that success is the result of constant effort, which is why only few people achieve it. People generally tend to put in effort for a certain period of time to create a certain amount of results, and then stop putting effort thinking that they have it already. Then they start losing it more and more until they decided to work at it once again. The whole cycle of achievement and loss repeat itself over and over for many people. This is the reason why success seems to elude the hands of many.
There is one rule for those who want to become super achievers, and that is to never go down. There are different levels of success in this world. Even successful people don’t stay up all the time. There are many who allow themselves to slip back time and time again. But they are still successful because they stay on top more of the time compared to most people. When looking at these successful people, you may think that is the way to be like. But it is so untrue and does not have to be that way for you.
Whenever you go down, it takes more effort to come back up to the same level. The discouragement you feel takes away some of your energy and slows down your pace. You are also fighting against the downwards momentum in order to turn in around once again. You would have to do additional things to come back up, which you would not have required if you had done what was needed to maintain your original level. It is always easier to continue present success than to gain lost success all over again.
In the time it takes you to recover, you could have risen to higher levels of achievement. The same additional things you do would have served to gain new success instead of playing catch up. That is why a company that falls behind finds it even harder to keep up with a competitor if the competing company also redoubles their efforts. The distance between two runners increase when one slows down while the other increases speed. These moments of lapse enable the champions to be far ahead of the rest.
That is what separates the successful from the super successful. It is also what separates the rich from the super rich. Success and wealth are compounded. The primary principle of the super investor is to never lose money, or more accurately your capital. The same principle applies to achieving super success in life. Do not do things that weaken your success. There are people who become proud and think they can take it easy when they achieved some success. Their carelessness causes their downfall.
It is all about maintaining the momentum and building upon it. Always act as if you are building your success. If actions of building your success got you where you are, they will continue to get you further. The true nature of success is a state of constant creation. Those who think that acting like you’re successful means you take it easy because you have already made it, do not understand the true nature of success. That is why they fail to get there or keep sliding back after they think they have made it.
You can tell that a successful and rich person is going to fail and lose their wealth when they start losing their focus. Success is a state of being and not what has been achieved. Successful people can be misleading for others to look up to when they lost their focus but still have achievements based on former states of success. People are caught in the illusion that success is a mix of effort and lack of effort. The successful people cannot be compared to the super successful who are the true role models.
Success depends on the qualities of success. The way to judge a person is based on their current state of character. When you see someone who is success minded, is focused and building their way to success, that person can already be considered a success. These are the kind of people you want to work with in any moment. Current state of being is more important than what has been achieved. A lower level of success is as failure compared with a higher level. Why not achieve even more as you can?[/hidepost]
