Relentless dedication to winning separates the successful
leader from the crowd. Whether success is correcting a social wrong like
Ghandi, or cornering a segment of the I.T. Market to earn millions like Bill
Gates, you commitment must be energetic, unforgiving and never-ending until victory
is in the bag!
A quick YouTube Search of Steps to success will reveal a
number of videos by various leaders, business people and famous celebrities with
their own version of 10 steps to success. After watching a dozen or so of the
videos you will realise that each person has their own perspective of what it
takes to be successful. One thing will stand out as a common point for each
person offering tips to success – Unwillingness to fail that drives their
passion to succeed!
Great leaders all have this in common: They are unwilling to
accept anything less than pure VICTORY! The alternative to winning is totally unacceptable
and foreign to them, driving them to find the path to success
The best of the leaders feel compelled to do their very best
for their teams or their cause. Having this mind set results in their undying
belief in Victory, where quitting is not an option, losing is unacceptable,
passion is all consuming and winning is the only obvious outcome.
Driven by this attitude, even you will rise to the challenge,
focused on the vision and willing to conquer all the challenges in order to take
your team to victory. The mystery of Success has been uncovered a long time ago
– it lies in your desire to win!
As a leader, foster your passion for success and grow an
unquenchable desire for victory in your team members too. Here are three elements
that will help you foster an unstoppable attitude for success:
1.
Unity of Vision: Regardless of how talented or
skilled your team happens to be, Victory only comes when everyone in the team
unites behind the vision and their efforts are congruent to achieving it!
2.
Diverse Skills, Common Belief: Every team needs
the full range of skills to be successful, but these skills must be driven by a
common belief – That Success is possible!
3.
Leader dedicated to Success Develops Potential:
Without hesitation, I believe that Track record trumps potential every time. A leader
that is dedicated to success will draw team members potential into habits and
skills that foster a great track record,
and when this process is refined and repeated, victory is the result!
How desperate are you for Victory? How you answer that
question will reveal whether success is in the cards for you or not. Commitment
is what gets the hungry leader through the drought and into harvest season!
When times are tough, everything is bleak, and the world seems set to destroy
you, as a Leader you need to lean on your commitment to victory. Commitment
means – even when you don’t feel like it, you get up, you show up and you get
fired up!
