In Evaluate Where You Are, Zig Ziglar makes 8 points in order to be successful in life. The points include happiness, health, being reasonably prosperous, security, friends, peace of mind, good family relationships, and hope. For me I can check off just about everything on this list but total happiness and hope. These two seem to be what I struggle with most and I believe if I work on both of these aspects in my life then I will ultimately reach success in the future to come. I think that each and every one of us could learn from this video by Zig Ziglar that ultimately explains the formula to be successful.
Embracing change, being confident, and embracing failure are the three points I connect with in this article because they are the three things that I need to work on most to better myself. I believe that working on these three things will ultimately lead me to be more mentally tough. After asking my Uncle Joe he said he connected to saying no, embracing failure, and being relentlessly positive. He said he needs to work on saying no in which he agrees with people to much, and being relentlessly positive even in the worst of situations. I believe we can all learn from this article to learn how to be more mentally tough, successful, and happy in life.
The two points I connected with for having a passion throughout life include listening to yourself and defining success for yourself. Listening to yourself is very important because if your not listening to yourself then your going through the same constant every day motion. Defining success for yourself is also very important because if you cant define your own success then you cant create your own dreams. I believe that we can all learn from this article by John C Maxwell because it defines to principles to find happiness and success in your life.
