Are you willing to become the superachiever of your life?

Every person has a dream. It is absolutely possible to achieve any goal you set no matter how difficult it is. It may seem difficult at first but everything is difficult at first. To be successful in life you need to set goals, value your time, take action, and learn from failures.

  • Start to value your time

Snap your fingers right now. How much did it take? probably one second. But when you snapped your finger Niagara Falls released 3160 tonnes of water, 205000 messages were sent on Facebook, 300 images were downloaded on Instagram, 20000 bottles of Coca-Cola were sold, 4 people were born and 2 died. Do you still think that 1 second is less?

‘I don’t have time’ is the phrase I have heard the most in my life. 200 million years ago when dinosaurs were still living on the planet Earth the year had 370 days but now it has 365 because the gravitation of the moon affects the planet Earth and makes it slow. That’s why each century, a day on the Earth becomes longer for 1.7 milliseconds. Even the moon does everything for you to have a long day but you still complain about not having time.

According to studies if you sleep 8 hours a day you spend 1/3 of your life sleeping. If you do not sleep you may have serious health problems so you should spend your awake hours wisely.

At this moment 63000 people searched something on Google, the bee moved its wings 250 times 179 million people were picking the nose. So what are you going to do in your next seconds considering that there is no greater harm than that of time wasted?

.Take actions

I personally believe that the most effective way of learning is physically taking part in activities. If you have a goal to be a great tennis player just go to the tennis court and start practicing. You can achieve your goals only by taking action and not sitting on the sofa and thinking about them. Always consider that if you have the ability to think of the greatest achievement you also have the ability to achieve it. Don’t let what you can do interfere with what you can do. So get up right now, start working on your dreams, and don’t wait for the motivation to come because all you need is discipline. I know you want to be a superachiever and down here I wrote some advice and facts for superachievers

  1. Working long hours is the key to success, but apart from being hard working, you also need to be smart. Superachievers know when they have to adapt to new circumstances.
  2. Superachievers are absolutely good listeners. And this is a great character because it helps them learn what they want to know about the world around them
  3. They are really good at persuading others and are talented storytellers. If you want to turn a good idea into achievement, you need to be able to sell the idea to others.
  4. Most sports champions really love what they do because success brings happiness and happiness brings success.

And here are some examples of superachievers

  1. Usain Bolt won three gold medals in the 2012 Olympic Games.
  2. Sixteen_year_old Malala Yousafzai received the United Nations Human Rights Award in 2013
  3. Chinese businessman Liu Qiangdong became a billionaire before he was forty.
  4. The Brazilian writer Paulo Coelho has sold over 150 million books in more than 150 countries.
  5. François Englert and Peter Higgs received a Nobel prize in 2013 for a particle they had discovered nearly fifty years ago.

“Success is never final; failure is never fatal. It’s courage to continue that counts”. – Winston Churchill

Learn from failures

“I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life, and that is why I succeed” – Michael Jordan

Have you ever lost a game or a serious competition you prepared for so much? Have you done your best for it and failed? Failures are on the way to success. It is not okay to take them too seriously. You just need to understand that your mistakes are good lessons for life. Here is some advice for you to deal better with failures.

  1. Don’t make it personal.

Even if you lost a very important project, that doesn’t mean that you are a loser. Don’t think so because it can destroy your confidence.

2. Take a risk

Most big ideas don’t come from following procedures. So take risks and try to see the problem in different ways

3. Don’t point fingers

Don’t blame those people who are below you in position and try to have an honest and nice discussion with them to find out what went wrong

4. Don’t think about it too much

Have some hours to celebrate your success or feel bad about it then go back to work. This helps you learn from your mistakes and be satisfied with your job.

Do you know how many failures successful people had before attaining their destination? For example, J.K. Rowling’s life was like a tragedy before Harry Potter, she was poor, divorced, and depressed.

Thomas Edison failed thousands of times before investing in the light bulb, even though he always did his best.

When Steve Jobs failed he was fired from his own company. He always liked to take risks and thanks to it he returned to Apple in 1997 and got promoted to president of the company in 2000.

“All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.” _Walt Disney

The important thing in life is to have a great aim and the determination to attain it.

So my final advice: never give up, believe in yourself, and always think that you can!
