Quast

To be a success in life you must be bold! There is no room at the top for those who are to shy or embarrassed to stand up for themselves and be heard. Success in everything you do will be determined by the environment around you! If you are a pushover, you will always be pushed over, if you act like a victim, you will always be the victim, especially if the fear of making a comment, asking a favour, requesting what is rightfully yours are the reasons for the hat you wear! Dont think that if you just stay quiet, agree with everything, and do your job well that eventually someone will notice and reward you! Sorry, its not going to happen! Dont kid yourself; it takes a very specific type of attitude to become a success.

Everyday, life is happening all around us, but the way we deal with it ultimately determines our destiny. It is your ability to handle and bend the environment around you to suit your goals that brings success. Having the confidence and discipline to tackle the issues around you that will give you faster access to your goal is vital. If you deserve a raise then tell them, if you disagree, then express yourself, if you are cheated then speak up! There are very few shy and timid successful people! Why, because the environment around them determines their course. They allow the environment to drive their life toward whatever? Definitely not toward their goals!

If you happen to be a shy and timid person, and want to succeed then your first goal must be to become confident and assertive. Visualize yourself being that person. Use Persistent, Effective Action. Give yourself rewards, and enjoy the new challenges. Replace the fear; instead imagine how it would feel to be old and regretful! You dont have to be loud and bubbly, you just have to be confident and maintain your integrity at all times. Stop making excuses about how bad things keep happening to you! Bad things dont happen to people, things happen, whether its bad or good depends on how you deal with it! Be bold, expect more from yourself, and expect more from others. Live life!

Fortune favours the bold. Virgil
