Jim Rohn, the great American success philosopher, speaker and personal development guru said once that personal philosophy is like the set of the sail. Personal philosophy is the foundation of success and failures in life. Everything that we experience on a daily basis or the books we read, seminars we attend, people we associate, the work we do, the country we live in and education and information that we acquire, all determine our personal success and failures.
I didn't get convince when Jim Rohn said that our personal philosophy determines our success and failures, instead I went ahead and meditated on this insight myself to ascertain its validity and truthfulness. And the better things began to occur in my life when I worked hard to form my genuine personal philosophy. I am convinced today that our personal philosophy is major determining factor of success and failures in life.
Ever since we were little children, we got multitude of inputs about life, people, health, wealth, success, failures, richness, poverty, money, government, jobs, education, relationship, happiness and freedom. We formed our unique views regarding ourselves, our capabilities, intelligence, beliefs, values etc. and they in turn permitted us to act according to our programmed beliefs and attitudes.
Many successful people have built their own philosophy and their individual philosophy which set the sail towards greater abundance, achievement and goals. People who don't have a clear personal philosophy, they drift away in any direction and they don't arrive where they actually intend to reach because their philosophy doesn't permit them to reach there.
I am working hard to form a good personal philosophy which will really guide me towards the success that I look forward to get in my life. I am putting in enough efforts to make some correction in disciplines, learn new mindsets, and programming my mind to accomplish those results which I have in my mind.
Personal philosophy can be positive or negative and the results too correspond to the nature of one's philosophy. You must be very clear about what you want in life and based on that you must develop your philosophy. Philosophy is the main guiding principle for you and it leads you to the direction you want to travel. You can't say I want to travel to any direction because you can end up no where.
Your philosophy will influence how much you achieve in life and how less you succeed in life. If you are struggling at the moment then you know what to do. You need to correct, review, reline, revise and rewrite your personal philosophy so that all the mental barriers can be eliminated.
Philosophy is nothing but one's thinking. You must think in ways that will promise whatever you desire deeply. Philosophy helps one to think in accordance with goals, dreams, vision and purpose. Philosophy is like a newly built road on which you must drive your car smoothly towards particular direction which you have decided.
So take up the responsibility to form your working philosophy so that you accomplish all that you desire and hope to enjoy your life to the full. Accomplishment of things desired, lead to greater happiness because you value those things. Think about your goals, health, lifestyle and happiness and you will be living that lifestyle soon.
