You Succeed One Day at the Time

Motivational Power Quote

You Succeed One Day at the Time

“The best thing about the future is that it comes only one day

at the time.”

Abraham Lincoln 1809 - 1865, 16th President of the United States  

 

As I see it. . . . . . . .

You succeed one day at the time

Success is not achieved in one giant leap or step . . . . but it’s in taking many successful incremental steps in the right direction.

When you speak to successful people they will readily tell you . . . . that there is no such thing as an overnight success. They also shared that if you want to become successful . . . . you would have to work hard at becoming successful. They will also tell you that the overnight successes that we see have paid the price for their success and what you see . . . . is the result of their hard work.

Successful people commit themselves to pursue their vision with passion and focus on achieving their goals and a successful outcome. They have made the commitment to invest their time . . . . and efforts to purpose their vision and to turn vision into success one day at the time.

In the process of interviewing successful people over the years, they revealed a very interesting fact. There is a common element in this group of people that is overlooked and a secret behind their success.

I would like to share that secret with you . . . .

That each day is a stepping stone on their success journey and the way they use their day will ultimately determines the level of success they achieve.

They believe that today is the most important day in their life. What they do with their day will compound into either a positive boost for their success journey that creates forward momentum. Or their day will become a negative discharge draining energy from their passions and potentially bringing their success journey to a dead stop.

By compartmentalizing their days they understand that success is like winning the game of life one day at the time. They concentrate on becoming successful on day at a time. They also understand that they will have a bad day along the way, but overtime their successful day will far out number their bad days. As a result they will continue to build forward momentum one day at the time.

You succeed on day at the time. Commit yourself to have a successful day and over time your success days will compound into achieving your vision and your goals.
