| Sometime we are in a conventional way that we need to follow the pattern that others do. We went to schools, get a degree and look for a job. We have a family and then sometime in the future we have financial, health, relationship problems like other people do. Do we need to be like that? You know that we don't have to be that. Then why we choose to be that way. This is because follow the norm is easier not to resist it. People want some certainty by referring to others' present status. Transient stability is sometime better than life-long engagement.In a recent research done in the US, it was found out that 95 per cent of people there reach the age of sixty having financial problem or depending to others on making a living. Why do only five per cent of people in one of the richest societies in this world can enjoy what they need in life financially? What are the ingredients that make these people be more successful? The answer is that they know that they could not follow the crowds in order to be successful. They know if they go to the different direction to where the majority of the people go, their chance is better. This is like to follow the flow of the water when you are in a boat. It is easier to let the boat goes by the flow and let the flow lead you to wherever it goes. Unfortunately, you know that at the end the flow will definitely leads you to the waterfall and at the time you will not have a chance to change anything. What should we do if we don't want to fall? We either immediately need to find something to row and row like crazy. Or we need to plan ahead upstream.The major element to be successful is your decision on what you want in life and what you want to be. Most people have not decided on what they want and they therefore follow somebody else plan. The sad thing is that in somebody else plan, there is not much plan for that person's future. We need to plan for ourselves to survive in this world. This simple principle is known to most of the people but hardly practiced. This is majority of the people live in quiet desperation and in need of help. This is why we have Donald Trump and we have John Doe who has never accomplished anything. Making a decision to be different is the first element to help you on the right track to succeed.The second element to success is to know how to visualize yourself as a successful person. Regular visualization will stimulate your subconscious mind to attract what you want. The mind can lead all the attributes and situation favorable to you. When you are visualizing, make sure that you are in an environment that enhance your subconscious mind power. There is some research that shows that some type of the noise if properly made can stimulate subconscious mind to work better.The third element on succeeding is planning. Make a plan to do what you need to in order to get the result you want. Most people merely talk and than prefer talking than doing things since talk is cheap. In addition, people like to talk about what they don't want instead of what they want. That even brings them further away from what they want. Schedule the time to do according to the plan. There are sayings that when you visualize, you get excited about what you want. When you plan for it, it is possible. When you schedule for it, it is real. Make it real. This is a ticket to what you want. Don't miss it. The last element is action. Follow your schedule to daily do what you plan to do. When you start to do, the momentum will come. Do not let anything or anyone to stop you. Relentlessly follow your passion until you get what you want.Jim Somchai Managing Director of JimSomchai Company.
