Who Is 100% Responsible For Your Success?

I want to ask you a very simple question. More importantly, I want you to take the time to answer it reflectively and honestly. Before I ask the question, however, take a moment and look at all aspects of your life. Look closely at your family, your relationships, your finances, your career, your spirituality and your happiness. Once you have taken a good, long look at your life, here is the question that I want to ask of you, "Why are you living the life that you are living right this very moment?"

Are you parents to blame? How about your dead-end job? Perhaps you have been down-sized and are living paycheck to paycheck?
One of the easiest and most common things to do is to blame "external factors" for the way that you live. The truth of the matter is that you are in complete control of your life.

This sentence bears repeating. You are the person who has created the life that you know live.

All of the choices and decisions that you have made in the past have determined where you are right now. In fact, your life is a culmination of all of your past actions.

Of course, there are undoubtedly many wonderful things happening in your life right now. Perhaps you have a wonderful marriage, children, job or financial stability.

However, you also have parts of your life that are not where you would like them to be. Examine these parts of your life and determine what you have done to contribute to these unhappy parts of your life.
Once you realize that outside influences do not determine your success, you will discover that you actually have the ability to create the very life that you would like to live. This is an incredibly wonderful realization!

Research suggests that successful individuals take full responsibility for their lives. They take responsibility for their successes and they take responsibility for their failures. Most importantly, successful people realize that all the choices that they make in the present moment will determine their future.

If they decide to watch TV as opposed to work on their business, this choice will affect their future.

If they decide to charge a big-screen TV on a credit card because they don't have enough cash in their bank account, this choice will affect their future.

And if they decide to stay working in a dead-end job because it is too much of a hassle to look for another one, this choice will affect their future.

Decide that you will begin to take full responsibility for all of the choices that you make in your life. Once you discover how much control you have over your future success and happiness, you will discover the joy in creating a life just as you would like it to be.
