6 - Common Self-Imposed Rules You Must Avoid

“Life always begins with the one step out of your comfort zone” – Shannon Alder, Inspirational author

Here are 6- self-imposed rules which you must avoid for your super success

(1) YOU ARE TOO YOUNG OR TOO OLD

    Young people often face skepticism about their lack of experience.

    However, AGE is their powerful asset.

    Older individuals mostly think that they have missed their chance for success, or they are outdated, and they cannot learn and unlearn.

    success is not confined to age, but is defined by mindset, perseverance, and the willingness to learn and adapt.

    Consistency is the FOCUS part of your success.

    Stop waiting for PERMISSION.  

    You are your CEO, you can hire, fire and promote yourself.

    (2) WAITING FOR THE “RIGHT” MOMENT:
    Waiting for the perfect moment to start can lead to missed opportunities.

    Successful individuals take action NOW !!

    They understand that the right moment is often created by taking the first step.

    So don’t be disturbed by the “Right moment”.

    Your right moment is NOW!!

    Mastering takes time. Commit yourself for lifelong learning.

    (3) THE “YOU CANNOT CHANGE” MYTH
    The notion that "you can't change" is a myth.

    This has held many people back from realizing their full potential.

    The truth is that humans are incredibly adaptable and capable of profound transformation.

    Our brains are wired with neuroplasticity, the ability to reorganize and adapt throughout life.

    This means that we can rewire our thoughts, behaviors, and even emotional responses through practice and experience.

    Successful individuals understand that change is not only possible but also essential for growth.

    This mindset allows them to view failures as opportunities for learning and to stay open to new experiences and perspectives.

    By challenging the "you can't change" myth, people can unlock their true potential and achieve remarkable transformations in their lives.

    (4) NOT BEING GOOD ENOUGH

    Whether you are aware of this or not, billions of people feel the same way.

    But “Not being Good enough” alone must have killed more dreams than anything else.

    Whether or not you are aware of it, millions of people fell the same way.

    • I am not a good content writer
    • I am not confident enough
    • I am, not making enough money

    Above are some of the examples that hold you back from chasing your success.

    Most successful people are imperfect. They have doubled down on a few KEY STRENGTHS.

    (5) AVOID RISKS BECAUSE EVERYONE WILL JUDGE YOU

    We think people are paying far more attention to us than they are.

    Harsh truth is that people are too busy worrying about themselves.

    People don’t keep track of:

    • Everything you post on social media.
    • Your past failures.
    • Remember your uncomfortable moments.

    So, what PEOPLE THINK ABOUT YOU is NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS.

    Just start acting on your Goals/Passions and you will get great results.

    (6) FEAR OF FAILURE OR FEAR OF SUCCESS

    Most people are haunted by one of the above two factors.

    “Fear of failure” normally comes from “Not being good enough” syndrome.

    Means you are afraid of being ridiculed and that will hurt your self-esteem.

    “Fear of success” is another trap. You are afraid of success.

    You may be worrying about not being capable to sustain your success on a sustainable basis.

    Nobody can guarantee that. But if you are consistent enough you can tide over the various crisis during your journey to success.

    “Master the gift of GOODBYE”.

    Successful & happy people simply say “Goodbye” to failures and move ahead.
