In a terrific country like mine, "Nigeria," success means different things to different people, and to some, being successful means living a fake lifestyle on the internet, while some believe you must do the odd stuff like adding zeroes with a pen when writing 1000, some strongly believed in scam, why others believe in hardwork.
So, how can you be truly successful in life? It is a serious daily challenge and also a question that many people wonder about as they deal with things like not having enough money, family issues, and not always knowing what they truly need versus what they want.
In the city of Lagos, every day is an adventure, especially on the island where the rich reside. One thing I used to tell people is that to me, the idea of success doesn't always fit. It's not about trying to be as rich as Elon Musk, Bill Gates, or Warren Buffet. True success means achieving your goals and dreams.
Here's a simple way to do it.
It’s helped me achieve MY definition of success, and it can help you too.
Step 1: Figure Out What You Want
Forget what others expect from you. Ask yourself, "What do I really want?" Imagine a life with no money worries. What would you do? Write down your wishes in three columns: "Stuff I want," "Things I want to do," and "The kind of person I want to be." Remember, it's not just about having things; it's about experiences and becoming a better person.
Step 2: Sort Out Your Real Desires
Next, look at your list and ask, "Will this make me truly happy?" Figure out what you really want and what you might be wanting just to impress others. Circle the most important goals.
Step 3: Make a Plan
Now, it's time to make a plan to reach your top three goals. Don't rush; take your time to think about the best way to do it. Talk to people who know about your goals, read books, and explore different ideas. Remember, it's more important to do things right than to do them quickly.
Step 4: Get Some Help
To stay on track, talk to a friend or mentor you trust. Share your goals and ask them to help you stay accountable. You can even set up a system where you have to donate to a charity you don't like if you don't make progress.
Step 5: Take Action
Honestly, I say this to people all the time wherever I am: why is it so difficult for people to do what they ought to do? Because to me, the most important part is to start doing it and keep your goals in mind. Staying positive that this dream of mine is possible is also important, and working on them every day will make every decision a reality because to me, "Success is about following your path and making your dreams come true."
Lastly, I believe success isn't about following someone else's path or trying to be like famous rich people. It's about understanding what you truly want, setting clear goals, making a plan, getting some help from trustworthy people, and taking action every day.
Remember, success is different for everyone. It's not just about having things; it's about experiences and becoming a better person. So, go out there, pursue your dreams, and make your version of success a reality. It's your journey, your goals, and your life—make it count!
