The REAL Secret Ingredient to Success is – Greatway Financial

I used to wonder if success was about hard work or being smart. For most of my life, I tried to study success and the many examples of success around me. I tried to understand why certain people achieve it. Now that I’ve achieved success, I strongly believe that the secret to success is hunger. The reason why I was able to accomplish what I have so far, and the reason why Greatway has achieved so much in such a short period of time, is because of hunger. In saying this, I don’t mean hunger as it relates to food, but rather the desire or hunger to become successful. I strongly believe that if you are hungry to become successful or have hunger to be someone, then you’ll focus – you’ll do what it takes. (Related: Know What You Want & Work Hard For It)

Not all forms of “hunger” are motivated by the same purpose. Money shouldn't be the motivator for success. We shouldn’t have hunger within us to become rich or gain a lot of material wealth. Our hunger should be to help people – this kind of hunger is long-lasting. This is because when we become comfortable then we aren’t motivated to do more – if our purpose isn’t deep. Are you hungry? If you’ve been working on a goal for a certain amount of time now, are you still hungry? When you become comfortable, you slow down. When you become content, you slow down and the hunger is gone.

The biggest mistake of most people is that they stop being hungry once they achieve their initial goals. — I am always hungry to help other people become successful.

When your hunger subsides, it is very difficult to reach for bigger goals. We need to find a way to be hungry all the time. If you unlock a purpose that keeps you focused and determined all the time, then you will become successful because you’ll persevere through all challenges. I see some people become comfortable with their life and professional career when they start to make money. The biggest mistake of most people is that they stop being hungry once they achieve their initial goals. The secret to my success is that I am always hungry to help other people become successful. My drive is not subsiding because I genuinely want other people to change their own lives – to spend time with their family and have control over their time. I just want to see more people become very successful. So, I’ll always do my best to help others. If you are wondering why you slowed down, it may be because you accomplished your first goal. Perhaps you should be hungry to help others. Otherwise, you may not have a purpose deep enough to push you to change your life. (Related: Living With A Purpose)
