Success By Choice (NOT By Chance)


Accomplishing your goals in life, doesn’t happen by accident. You don’t accidentally lose 25 pounds. You don’t accidentally become fit enough to run a marathon.  You don’t accidentally become a great parent or role model. Tiger Woods didn't accidentally become the best golfer on the planet. And you won’t accidentally  become one of the top earners in a company ... and you will never ever accidentally become successful.

Success is never accidental ... it is very, very intentional.

That being said, there is also a common misconception about success that has held on like an old wives tale over the years …you might think that it is “you” that is seeking success, but the truth is ... success that is aggressively seeking you!


It is no coincidence that you are continuously barraged by the evidence of others Success. Whether it is the photos on the cover of magazines as you stand in line at the grocery store, or the luxury vehicles you see on the street, the exquisite homes you drive by or see on TV…or the buff and beautiful bodies that seem to flaunt themselves in front of you,…ALL these things are meant to incite your innate instincts like a red flag in front of a bull. They are meant to be flagrant examples of wealth and health…for they are ‘the tools’ Success uses to reveal itself and get your attention!

Success collaborates with the Universe to compel you to look for, reach for and search for ... ‘more’ in life. That ‘unsettling’ feeling you experience as you observe the success of others - is the UNFULFILLED POTENTIAL within YOU screaming for fulfillment! “That should be me! That is how I should be living, that is what I should have!” it says.


That uneasy feeling is the potential within you rebelling against the life you have relegated yourself to. The choices you have made, and not made, for yourself..…when more was, and is, possible!

How you answer that inner cry for fulfillment will determine the course of your life.

Some people choose to ignore their potential and spend their lives despising the messengers of success – Telling themselves that life is unfair and success is just a cruel child waving an ice cream cone in the face of one that is poor. That is a choice.

Others, will see the examples of success and use them as a catalyst to propel themselves forward in the pursuit of their own dreams, they see others Success as proof that it is there to be had! That is also a choice.

As Jim Rohn said: “Don’t wish that life was easier – wish that you were better. Don’t wish for less problems – wish for more skills. Don’t wish for less challenge – wish for more wisdom. Don’t wish for THINGS to change – YOU CHANGE.”


If you have not connected with success in life yet, success IS seeking you, so choose a path that allows it to find you!

To your success,
