Four major excuses you must deal with if you want to be successful in life

The world is full of people who are ready to make changes in their lives, but they are holding on to a lot of excuses. We tend to give these excuses a chance to confuse and bewilder us, and we believe that our excuses hold the key to our dreams and aspirations. We get so caught up in our excuses that we end up avoiding even trying. We make excuses so that we don’t make changes in our lives, and we give ourselves the excuse to believe that the problem is our situation and not our action.

Life is about choice. We can always choose a way out of any situation. You have to get out of the life you have, not into the life you want. Changing your life is not a problem. If you find the problem, you will fix it. But if you find the solution, you’ll have it. But if you find neither, that’s when you have a real problem.

In this article, we will look at three big excuses that are major hindrances to success and how to overcome them. We will talk about these reasons and the paths to true success that can and will help you to develop yourself and live the life of your dreams.

1. Not enough time

Time is an infinite thing that is given to everyone by the Creator. So why is it that we are not able to make the most of what we have to be able to achieve our dreams? This is a killer excuse. No one can give us more time than we already have.

When we think about it, we probably have more time than we think. We work our whole lives and get almost nothing done because we weren't focused on the important things in life. Now that we are old and we have this much time watching the time go by because we think we don't have anything more to do with it? Maybe we could spend it doing the things we could do when we were younger? We could take the training, take the courses, learn the skills, no time is late.

The second reason is that time is not your problem. You already have so much time, the real problem is the way you think about it. You waste most of your time just thinking about how much time you don't have, and that is how time is stolen from you. The real time to think is right now. Right now you have time to stop and think. Right now you have the power to think about what you want to do and how to do it. The reason we are not able to do what we want is that we let our imagination control us, and not our actions. Many people waste their lives worrying about what they don't have, rather than thinking about what they do have.

The idea behind creating the life of your dreams is that you should focus on what you already have. To do that you have to permit yourself to make changes, and this is possible. All you have to do is to learn the path of action and let it take you to your destination. If you do these two things, you will be able to see changes in your life. You will be able to see where you can live a more meaningful life, that is fulfilling and useful to your family and community.

2. Not enough education

A lot of people still think because of no diploma or higher degree certificates they can't achieve great things in life. But it is much more than that. Education and knowledge give people access to many opportunities and help them see how the real world works. With education, you can discover more and more things. But education is not much about diplomas and certificates.

If you think about it, most of us have much more knowledge and skills than we realize. Those skills aren't taught in school, get to learn them on your own. Why do you think it is that today so many people are spending more time online to develop their skills and knowledge than they do in school? Maybe you don't think about what you can do with your time. But you should because it will give you access to unlimited opportunities and your life can be so much better than you think.

Today, I have seen graduates who dropped their certificates and learn new skills online that give them the opportunities to become successful. The internet is becoming the ultimate university for many people not for the degrees but for the skills.

Think about it this way. What is the next step for you to take with your life? Which skills do you need to develop? What skills are you missing? Is there a field where you are willing to try new things? How can you expand your skills to the next level?

3. Fear of the unknown

So many people choose to stay in their comfort zone for fear of the unknown. It is understandable. Being afraid of the unknown is understandable. Most of us have never been far from the things we know, we are afraid of the unknown because we can't imagine what it would be like. We are afraid of the challenge and we think that we cannot do it. But many times, we just don't know enough, and that is the only thing that keeps us in our comfort zone.

Do you want to know what is the best way to take that first step? The best way is to change your brain. When you want to learn new things, use the new brain process. Instead of thinking about what you don't know you have to be open to what you have. What I am saying is that it's what you have that you can use to get what you don't.

The question now is, what do you have? If you want to improve yourself in life and improve your life, start by asking yourself the question, "What do you have that you can use to improve your life? What is that thing? Then use your mind to think about what you want to do with that thing and you are on your way to success.

4. Not enough money

So many believe that to start a successful life you must begin with a bag full of money. If you ask me, how will I start I will tell you to start from scratch. BTC started from zero and today it's the most priced coin and asset in the market. @PVMihalache also told me he started from zero, even I started from zero. But today things are different.

One thing that people often forget is that they don't remember that numbering starts from zero. Zero is also a number, having zero amount doesn't mean you will continue that way except you choose to be. You can either choose to be rich or poor. You can either choose to be happy or miserable. You have so many options.

Let's think about this for a minute, how much money have you? How much money did you earn and get from a job? You don't know because you never counted how much money you have. Now how many of you have managed to build a house or a small business from zero? How many of you? I tell you the truth, I did.

So stop waiting for someone to come and give you everything you want. Start to count your money. Start by counting it. How much do you have? You have much than some people in the world. You should start counting your money. Start to dream. Start believing. Start praying. Start working. And if you fail you can learn from your failures. You should understand that you don't need $100 million today to be happy, you just need $10. Start from the small, start small, and see where you end up.

Conclusion

If you want to make your life better, you need to think of what you want to achieve. How will you achieve your goal? Instead of asking yourself what you don't have, ask yourself what you can do. Start from zero, know where you are and you will end up somewhere.

Don't wait for the man to come. You will never know. You will never learn unless you are willing to learn. The man will come when you stop asking for the man to come. Look up to your excuses and deal with them. Start walking. Start working. And when you see the money, start putting it to work.

Today, let's make ourselves better, let's make this world better, let's make ourselves a better version of ourselves. Let's be better than the person we were yesterday.

Money, education and the likes aren't an excuse to not living a successful life you ever wanted. We need to think outside the box and find means of getting out from mediocrity.

There will never be enough of these things listed. You start with wat you have and where you are. Waiting for a perfect time that you have enough of everything is not wise as that time will never come

Fear of unknown is the root cause .... people mostly hesitate by exploring the negative side of every opportunity....There should be awareness to explore opportunities not disadvantages.

The thing is money can never be enough. Most people wait till they have sizeable amount before they get things done but they still won't get it done. The world rewards those who take steps not those who wish.

Time is our friend and can also be our greatest enemy when we don't utilize it well. Anyone who waste an hour in the morning would spend the whole day searching for it.

Fear of the unknown has killed so many dreams. They keep questioning "What if it doesn't work out" and I always answer people "What if it does?"

Education alone is not a yardstick to success. There are many people today who do not go to school, but yet still make it big. They come out successful.

Time can never be the problem because we are all having enough time.
