As we begin a brand new year, I wanted to point out that success is not an accident, nor does luck have much to do with it.
Success doesn’t just happen in direct sales, or any other home business. There is no accident when it comes to success. Success comes to those who do something, take action, and make it happen.
No one has ever become successful by sitting at home waiting for success to knock on the door. All successful people I know understand that success won’t just find them; they have to go out and find it. Success is a choice that you make.
Success is in the action, and the more you do, the more success you will have. The wonderful thing about action is that action puts you in the direct path of success. The more action you take, the more opportunities you have to discover and leverage success.
Some say that successful people are simply lucky people. Luck comes to those who are out there making it happen. If successful people seem luckier than most, it’s because they know that to create luck you have to be out there doing something. I have found that the harder I work, the luckier I get!
The great news is that you don’t have to do a lot to create success. A few active and deliberate steps a day toward your goal will move you forward faster than you can imagine. The trick is to stay in action, be consistent and persistent and stay focused on moving forward.
Don’t be afraid to make mistakes either. You have to step up to the plate and swing the bat. My father (who was a great sports fan) always told me,”Don’t just stand there, do something- even if it’s wrong!” We will always have a lesson with each setback.
What have you done to advance your goals lately?
What actions do you plan to take today toward your goals?
Perhaps these quotes may inspire you today:
“Luck is when opportunity meets action.”

“Conditions are never right. People who delay action until all factors are favorable do nothing.”
William Feather
“A goal without a plan is just a wish.”
Antoine de Saint
“If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours. ”
Henry David Thoreau
“You can’t hit a home run unless you step up to the plate.
You can’t catch a fish unless you put your line in the water.
You can’t reach your goals if you don’t try.”
Kathy Seligman
“Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment.”
Jim Rohn
“The more action you take, the more progress you make.”

Are you ready to take MASSIVE ACTION in 2009?
I’d like to end this post today with a prayer that the late founder of my company always kept in her desk drawer. I would like to share it with you and hope that it means as much to you as it does to me.
O Lord, grant that each one who has to do with me today may be happier for it. Let it be given me each hour today what I shall say,
And grant me the wisdom of a loving heart
That I may say the thing rightly.
Help me to enter into the mind of everyone who talks with me,
And keep me alive to the feelings of each one present.
Give me a quick eye for little kindnesses
That I may be ready in doing them and
graciously receiving them.
Amen! In His Hands
