7th Reasons For Failure Why We Don't Achieve Excellence

Lack of Conviction 

People who lack conviction take the middle of the road; and guess what happens in the middle of the road? They get run over.

 People without conviction do not take a stand. They go along to get along because they lack confidence and courage. They conform in order to get accepted even when they know that what they are doing is wrong.

 They behave like part of a herd. Some people consider themselves a shade better because they do not support the wrong; however, they lack the conviction to oppose. They do not realize that by not opposing they are actually supporting.

One of the important secrets to success is, instead of being against something, be for something. That way, you don't become part of the problem, but part of the solution. It takes conviction to take a stand.
 Conviction Takes Faith
 Faith without action is delusion. Faith does not wait for miracles but produces them.
 If you think you can or if you think you can't, you are right.
 --Henry Ford
 We all have low moments, we all fall down and get hurt. We all have moments when we doubt ourselves and get into self-pity. The point is to overcome these feelings and restore your faith.
 There are three kinds of people in this world:

1.  People who make things happen
2.  People who watch things happen
3.  People who wonder what happened
4.  Which category do you fall into?
