FOUR FACTORS AND SUCESS TIPS OF BILL GATES

FOUR FACTOR’S OF SUCCESS AND THE WAY TO MOVE FORWARD,

A old proverb states that the Journey of a 1000 miles begin with a single step, similarly for the success journey the effort you put today is the assurance to reach the goal by an year or a limited time.

You may be heard from some of the books the difference between desire and the goal. Desire is like a leaf flying in the air, as many of us always stuck on this desire. Let’s say you want to become a CEO of a company, you say internally I want to become CEO and nothing much we plan. Whereas, when it comes to goal, it will have a proper plan out with some time lime. It is like a journey with a schedule, so that we can accelerate the speed according to the distance of the goal.

Let’s take live example - I am just highlighting how exactly he fixed a time line for his victory

At the age of fourteen Bill was confident that he could be a millionaire by thirty. All the way he worked hard is to achieve this target. So the point here is

· Your goal to be very clear with the timeline mentioned i.e within this year etc. for example you can say I WANT TO BE A CEO OF A SOFTWARE COMPANY WITHIN 5 YEARS

· This goal has to converted on yearly basis 1s year – reach manager stage 2^nd year – GM 3^rd year – director etc.

· This year targets further converted into monthly + weekly and day by day basis also.

Today if I ask you to travel 10000 KM means, no one say yes, since the thing itself makes impossible. When I say you travel 2 KM today then you say Okay. Similarly whatever it may be your goal take some steps today to reach over there by a year or XX years.
