Progress… a very interesting word.
Are you ready to continually make progress in all the days of your life?
Earl Nightingale started to look for the secret to success in 1934, and it wasn’t until 1951 that it dawned on him that success was the progressive realization of a worthy ideal.
It is the progressive realization of a worthy ideal.
Now that would indicate if you’re not progressing, you’re not successful. If you are progressing, you are successful.
And as Earl explained, ”Progress isn’t going ahead then leveling out and then going back then going ahead.” He said, “Progress is continually moving in an upward direction.”
“You’re successful if you know where you are, and you know where you’re going.” ~Earl Nightingale
It has nothing to do with your money or your position.
It has to do with the direction you’re travelling.
If you know where you are, and you know where you’re going, and you’re progressively moving in that direction you are a successful person.
You might have 5 million in your estate working towards 25 million, and you’re progressively moving in that direction…you’re a successful person.
You could be a student in school with a C and D average and you’re working towards an A and B average, and you’re progressively moving in that direction…you’re a successful person.
Each one of these examples are equally as successful as the other because they’re progressively moving in the direction of their dream.
Progress is an interesting word. And you know something? Most people (a clear 97%) don’t have that idea fixed in their mind. And so there are days when they’re progressive and there are days when they’re going backwards.
There are some days when they’re stuck. There are some days when they’re thinking, I don’t know what to do!
Do the next chore. Do the thing that’s in front of you. Make certain that you are progressing towards your goal with everything you do. Yet if it’s taking you in the wrong direction stop doing it.
Progress is the, absolute, essential quality in our life.
We want to be progressive individuals so as you go through the day say, “Is this causing me to progress?” Am I moving in the right direction? You’re going to get to love the word.
I thought that’s such a perfect definition of success and I adopted it. Do what I did, and I guarantee you you’ll start moving in that direction.
I want to make all of my actions that way.
I don’t want to go backwards.
And I know you don’t, so turn progress into a habit. That’s an idea in your subconscious mind you act on without thinking.
Make sure all day long you progress and you will get Results that Stick.
Keep smiling with love and light in your heart,
