   What It Takes To Be Successful

'Prepare thy work without, and make it fit for thyself in the field; and afterward, build thine house' (Proverb 24:27).

Most people if they ask this question,  'What does it take to be successful?'  There will be expecting to hear a simple and straightforward answer, 'It's faith, it's prayer, it's hard work, etc'. The hard truth is that faith, prayers, and hard work alone can't make you successful. Faith, Prayers, and Hard Work are the principal but you need to add virtues if you want to be successful. And that is why the Bible says, 'And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue;...(2Peter 1:5).

They are no shortcuts, the journey to success is a hard and lonely one. They will come to a point where you have to choose whether to quit or continue, but whichever one you choose, both hurt. Jesus speaking, 'Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it (Matthew 7:14)

You need all these virtues if you have chosen the part of true success. You need Discipline, perseverance, commitment, the right attitude, strong character, good human relations, right knowledge, prudence, integrity, etc. You need all of them to be successful.

To Overcome Defeat Is Possible

"I can do all things through Christ which strengthen me" (Philippians 4:13) This is a fact that you must never forget some people have overcome every conceivable difficult situation even the one in which you now find yourself and which to you seems utterly hopeless. So did it seem to some others, but they found an out, a way up, a path over, a pass through. I advise you not to take the attitude that you are in a situation in which nobody has ever been before. There is no such situation. Related Topic: Belief In Yourself   The first thing to do about an obstacle is simply to stand up to it and not complain about it. Don't go crawling through life on your hands and knees half-defeated. Stand up to your obstacle and do something about them. You will find that they haven't half the strength you think they have. You can do this when you have faith, faith in God, and faith in yourself. Faith supplies staying power. It contains dynamics to keep one going when the going is h...

Move On

" ...: _but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward calling of God in Christ Jesus_ ". Philippians 3:13-14 The past is always going to be the way it was, so stop trying to change it. Your future contains more happiness than any past you remember. Believe strongly that the best is yet to come. Today we remember Paul more as an Apostle of Christ than a persecutor of Christians.
