DESCRIPTION

Few days back, I was advising one of my friend on how to expand his start-up. During that conversation, I realized that some of my advices are very common for everyone to follow. Whether you are a fresh graduate or an experienced professional or a proud new business owner, you should always follow some simple tips to become successful in life. With this blog post, I am going to share those tips with you.Define success: Every person will have their own dreams, and hence their own definition of success. An engineer wouldn’t consider an artist a successful person, and vice versa. Thus, before you start hunting for an ideal successful life, you might want to self-analyze yourself and define your specific success criteria. And while you are in that process, make sure that you consider your happiness as a part of this process. After all, no one wants to be successful and not happy. Right? Let’s say………your definition of success is to make couple of million dollars in few years. To achieve that………you might need to work 7 days a week with existing salary that you earn. In this case, you might want to think if you are willing to sacrifice that time away from your family or not, and then adjust your definition of success accordingly.Establish achievable goals: Once you have done the hard part of defining your success criteria, now it’s time to establish some goals. Make sure that those goals are achievable, otherwise you will be discouraged when you realize that you can never achieve your goals. Let’s say……..your success criteria are to become a highly paid artist. In that case, you want to establish few goals like…….I will draw at least 2-3 paintings a month, or I will display my art in 5-6 art exhibitions a year. Ideally, these goals should be smaller milestones towards your successful life. So, make sure to keep a checkpoint on these goals. I would advise you to revisit these goals every 3 months.In my next blog post, I will provide you with few ideas through which you can achieve your goals to become successful. Until then, if you have any other ideas or comments about becoming successful in life, then please feel free to share it here on my blog.Thanks – Bhavin Gandhi

How to become successful in life by Bhavin Gandhi

Few days back, I was advising one of my friend on how to expand his start-up. During that

conversation, I realized that some of my advices are very common for everyone to follow.

Whether you are a fresh graduate or an experienced professional or a proud new

business owner, you should always follow some simple tips to become successful in life.

With this blog post, I am going to share those tips with you.

Define success: Every person will have their own dreams, and hence their own definition

of success. An engineer wouldn’t consider an artist a successful person, and vice versa.

Thus, before you start hunting for an ideal successful life, you might want to self-analyze

yourself and define your specific success criteria. And while you are in that process, make

sure that you consider your happiness as a part of this process. After all, no one wants to

be successful and not happy. Right? Let’s say………your definition of success is to make

couple of million dollars in few years. To achieve that………you might need to work 7 days

a week with existing salary that you earn. In this case, you might want to think if you are

willing to sacrifice that time away from your family or not, and then adjust your definition of

success accordingly.

Establish achievable goals: Once you have done the hard part of defining your success

criteria, now it’s time to establish some goals. Make sure that those goals are achievable,

otherwise you will be discouraged when you realize that you can never achieve your

goals. Let’s say……..your success criteria are to become a highly paid artist. In that case,

you want to establish few goals like…….I will draw at least 2-3 paintings a month, or I will

display my art in 5-6 art exhibitions a year. Ideally, these goals should be smaller

milestones towards your successful life. So, make sure to keep a checkpoint on these

goals. I would advise you to revisit these goals every 3 months.

In my next blog post, I will provide you with few ideas through which you can achieve your

goals to become successful. Until then, if you have any other ideas or comments about

becoming successful in life, then please feel free to share it here on my blog.
