A Recipe for Success in 4 Easy Steps

Every self development guru has a different approach to success, but what people really want is a simple recipe for success that produces results under any circumstance. I've been using such a formula for years. When you see how well this works, you'll easily make this a part of your results getting routine. After a while, you'll forget you're actually doing it.

I did not come up with this idea on my own. In fact, it's not mine. I "stole" it from the great "Personal Power II" home audio program by Tony Robbins. In short, this is a four step formula for achieving results, regardless of what it is.

The great thing about this is that it is subject matter neutral. The formula doesn't care what you want to achieve, but there are some guidelines. The hardest part of this may be that any doubts or fears you have based on beliefs and experiences need to be put aside if this is going to work for you.

You'll need to put all that behind you and take action regardless of doubt or fear. This is known as "getting out of your own way."

If after reviewing this formula, it seems simple to you, that's because it is. Part of the reason it works is because it's simple.

It's possible that you might be tempted to dismiss this system for being too obvious and too simple. It won't take long, however, for you to see the simple power in this recipe for success.

In order to take action, you need motivation. When it comes to motivation, renewal of that motivation is key. Having this formula with guidelines goes a long way to renewing your motivation when you need it. Here is the four step formula for success that will work for anything you want to accomplish.

1. Decide on what you want - Many people do not do this! Instead, they wish away their time. You must decide on what you want your outcome to be. Let's say you need to buy some milk. Imagine getting in your car and driving down random roads, with no particular destination in mind. Not the most efficient way to go buy some milk. What are the odds that you'll end up where you want to go if you don't have a destination in mind? Slim to none.

2. Take action -- Now that you know where you want to go, you have to take action in order to get there. This requires you to make a second decision to take immediate action on your first decision. Make a commitment to taking those actions that will move you toward your desired outcome. In order to do this, you must put aside all fear and doubt. Like Nike, "just do it."

3. Track progress -- Check your progress and notice what is working and what is not. Do more of what is working, and change or drop what is not working. Keep fine tuning your actions until you achieve the results you want.

4. Model someone successful -- One of the quickest ways to success is to find someone who has what you have, and then do what they did to get it. Modeling means copying what works. You can then improve upon it by monitoring your progress and adjusting.

This recipe for success has worked well for me over the years, and it can work for you as well. I hope you'll use it to get where you want to go.
