The 5 Secret Keys To Success
In this article, you’re going to learn about the 5 secret keys to help you accomplish your goals faster. Let’s begin!
Choose a smart goal
You can set a goal any which way you like. However, if you’d like to increase your chances of success, then you better set a smart goal.
A smart goal has the following characteristics: it’s specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and timely.
You can’t choose only 2 or 3 characteristics. A good goal has all 5 characteristics present.
If you don’t want to waste your time and you want to reach your goal ASAP, then make sure you choose a smart goal.
Be passionate
You can have a smart goal, but if you’re not passionate about it, you can easily lose motivation. Having the passion for something lights a fire under you – you don’t get that fire if you don’t particularly care about your goal.
Choose a goal you’ll be passionate about. That way, when the obstacles come (and they will!), you’ll be able to persevere and keep chasing your dreams!
Learn from failures
It may sound surprising at first, but failure really is one of the secret keys to success. When you’re chasing something, a life goal, for instance, you’re probably not going to succeed on your first try. It may take you ten tries or maybe even a hundred tries.
No matter how many times you fail, you still take something away from the experience – you learn something. And you can use that knowledge towards your goals – you now know what’s working and what’s not.
Network
As the saying goes, it’s not what you know, it’s who you know. In many cases, this rings true. If you know the right people, you can get your foot in the door.
Always be nice and helpful to everybody you meet. Don’t underestimate the power of building relationships, they might help you reach your goals faster.

Don’t aim for perfection
Aiming for perfection is equivalent to setting yourself up for failure. Perfection is such a lofty goal, impossible if you will.
Do you know of anybody who’s perfect? I don’t think so. So there’s really no reason why aiming for perfection is even a thing.
Instead of perfection, aim for excellence or being the best you can possibly be. Being the best is not the same as being perfect.
Even if you’re the best, you still have room to grow. When you’re perfect, there’s simply nowhere else to go, you’re already perfect.
