How To Get Anything In Life

by Bright Osadiaye, posted in Personal Development, Personal Growth

You can get anything if you are willing to pay the price. It is not impossible. But you have got to be willing to walk your talk.

Talk is cheap. Walk is expensive.

It does not matter what you want in your life, if you are serious about it, if you are willing to do the job, to sell yourself, to challenge yourself, to look stupid, to learn, to make mistakes and learn from them, you can get what you want.

You can make your dreams possible. It is not going to happen if you do not have the courage to put yourself out there.

No one is coming to meet you where you are. If you want it, you go and look for it. You do that by selling yourself. Whether you know it or not, we are all doing it.

You are selling yourself when you put yourself out there, when you take yourself out of your comfort zone.

According to Geoffrey James, ‘If you can’t sell, you can’t sell yourself or your ideas.

If you want to win, you must learn how to sell yourself.

Why You Should Promote Yourself

If you do not show people what you can do, people won’t know. If you want people to know what you are selling, what you can offer, you must promote yourself. You must put yourself out there. Above all, you must be vulnerable.

In his book Awaken Your Genius: Escape Conformity, Ignite Creativity and become Extraordinary, Ozan Varol writes, ‘If you don’t promote your book, the readers won’t come. If you don’t promote your product or your service, the customers won’t come. If you don’t promote yourself, the job offers won’t come.’

‘If you want people to know you, to know who you really are, you must promote yourself.’

They won’t come to you. You have got to leave your comfort zone. Do not let fear cripple your dreams. Whatever you have, promote it. Nothing is perfect. Remember, according to Ozan Varol, ‘Self-promotion is not an act of shame. It’s an act of love- for others who want what you created.’
