 In my country, millions of people believe in the myth of luck. Yes, there are many hard workers. People who could literally bang their heads against the wall just to get rich, but most of this hard work is misdirected. It is similar to shooting randomly into the air, hoping that you will be lucky enough to shoot down a bird. But here's what I have found about success in life. Those who succeed do not wake up one morning hoping to get lucky today. They do not expect that they will be rich somehow, if they could just work harder at a misdirected endeavor. No, instead, they have a clear goal, followed by a clear plan on how they will achieve that goal, and they rigidly focus on only the activities that will give them the result they want. Principles, not acting sporadically, is what guarantees success. And those who understand the principles of success, continue to enjoy repeated success. In today's video, I will be sharing with you the 3 Rs that will change your life forever. If you're a young person interested in improving his life for good, subscribe to this channel, so you will not miss inspiring and life-changing videos from this channel. 1. Resolve Nothing changes without a definite decision. In the biblical story of the prodigal son, the boy had gotten rich of doing nothing, and had foolishly mismanaged his wealth. He suffered for a long while, and even tried to eat food given to pigs. His life continued to spiral down that horrible path, until the Bible says he came to himself. That is, he sat down one day, and assessed his situation. He considered the pros and cons of his life, and realized if he continued this way, he would never stop suffering, and would die suffering. The boy said, I will arise, and the next thing we know, he arose. All of what life is about is a decision, whether you will continue to watch this video or not. It's based on your choice. Whether you will watch another video after this, it's based on your decision, and whether you will spend the rest of the day on social media, or it's something that improves your life. It's based on your choice. Your resolve to change your life is what makes your life better. I struggled with the fear of laziness for a long time, until I got to a point where I resolved I would start to work a little bit and build up from there. Each day I would do a bit more than I should. I would tell myself, if you can do it today, you'll eventually do it tomorrow, or you regret never doing it. It'll keep affecting your self-esteem. With that, I kept overcoming a habit I knew would hold me back from succeeding. Unless you resolve that you will succeed and do all it takes to change your life. Nothing will happen. Millions of people wake up each day, not knowing where their life is going and what the future holds for them. A great future does not happen to those who hope to have one. A great future occurs to those who create one. It takes deliberateness and intentionality to build the kind of future you want to see. That deliberateness begins with a resolve that I will succeed or die trying, then making clear plans and achieving that goal. 2. Responsibility If you don't take responsibility for your life, nobody will. For a long time, I lived with a group of people, and somehow, I kept hoping that they would help me become who I wanted to be. I didn't even know I was depending on them to change my life. After I had suffered terribly for almost 2 years and noticed those people were too busy with their own lives, I decided to take a step out on my own. That was the first time it hit me that I had been foolish in thinking anyone could change my life. Today, I have a funny habit of never waiting for anyone to get anything done. If I need your help and you're slow in giving it, I get the thing done myself. Most times, we don't take responsibility for our lives, because we don't believe in ourselves. We don't think we're good enough more than anything good can come out of us. We feel who are we to succeed? David J. Schwartz, the author of Magic of Thinking, wrote, Believe it can be done. When you believe something can be done, believe your mind will find the ways to do it. Believing a solution paves the way to the solution. When you believe in yourself and believe something can be done, somehow, you find energy to stand up to take responsibility for your life, so you can get those things done. If you don't own your life, if you don't stand up and take charge of it, know that nothing will change, no matter how close they are to you. Nobody is responsible for your life in the same way that nobody is going to spoon feed you if you have both hands which you can use yourself. Get your acts together and take responsibility for your life. Nothing changes unless and until you make them change. 3. Resilience The battle of life is fierce. Whether you like it or not, only the strong survive. Only those who have resolved to succeed and are willing to take responsibility for their lives to succeed. Adding to it a determination to fight until they succeed ever succeed. Most failures are not people who never tried, but people who worked for a while and after failing, they gave up and moved on to other things. The stories told of the history of Coca-Cola. The original discoverer of Coca-Cola was a pharmacist who wanted to make a recipe that will heal his headache. When he saw how good what he had discovered was, he started to sell it in a kettle and began to move around to market his product. After trying this for a while and then succeed, he gave up and sold it to a businessman. That businessman took Coca-Cola all over the world in less than 20 years. Those who give up do not often know how close they are to succeed. If you give up too quickly, you'll find it difficult to enjoy the maximum success that most people enjoy. Repeated success is a result of resilience. Try, try, try and try again until you succeed. If Thomas Edison had stopped at the 100th try and his quest to make the light bulb, perhaps we would not have the light bulb today. If Henry Ford had stayed and his quest to make inexpensive but high quality cars, perhaps only rich people would own cars today. If you quit your dream now, you don't know the number of lives, destinies and generations it will affect. Things will always work out the way you expect. That's guaranteed. Don't give up. Don't quit on your dream and don't give into failure. Somehow, light is always at the end of the tunnel. No matter how dark it is now, you will succeed if you resolve to succeed. Take the responsibility to stand up for your life. To get to work and keep going until you make it through, you will certainly succeed. Today, resolve that you will become a better person and you will achieve a better life. Follow up your resolve with responsibility. Take responsibility for your life by proactively working on the resolution you have made to succeed. Don't give up on your quest to succeed. When things do not go your way, don't give in. Keep trying, because success doesn't come on a golden platter. If this video inspired you, share the video with your friends. We love you.
