How To Become A Success
Posted by admin on January 20th, 2010 filed in Uncategorized
Growing up through the difficult teenage years and into my early twenties, I felt very sorry for myself. I used to think I was the most unluckiest person in the world. I had a bald patch the size of a ten pence piece on my head, a speech impediment(stutter), I was overweight to the point of being fat, and was short for a male(5ft4).
I believed that I received more mickey taking out of me than anyone else, and life was certainly a struggle. To meet members of the opposite sex when you have a lack of confidence and a stuttering problem is not easy. To gain work, order drinks, socialise in general, these were all difficult for me. Everyone else seemingly breezed and eased there way through life.
To my surprise a friend a work (aged 30yrs my senior) commented that in his opinion I was the most negative and depressive person he had ever met. He went on by stating that I was always negative about most things in life, always moaning about this or that and very rarely smiled~He continued that I would rarely smile and often thought in a negative manner}. He went on to say that he had used to be like me, always depressed, moody and stressed until he was given some advice when he was aged thirty. He then proceeded to give me the same advice.
You need to realise that however bad your life may seem to be that other people around the world are far worse off; just watch the news on the television and read the quality press and you will soon see that this is the case.
I thought about this and started to follow what he had said. I now realise how stupid I had been. To be born and live in the UK, I am one of the lucky ones.
My life has now improved big time and I now have a successful business life in the DVD authoring and cheap telephone calls sectors.
I am hoping that the above words will inspire its readers to become far more positive people.
