2.PULL vs. PUSH. You can't push a rope. And neither can you make progress most efficiently by pushing and forcing outcomes. In coaching, we work with clients to become more "attractive" so that they effortlessly draw to themselves what they want in life and move away from seducing or pushing to produce outcomes. Ask yourself: What am I attracting into my life? Am I pushing or pulling?

3.BE PERSISTENT. Continue to take action daily toward your dreams and goals. Patience and persistence arerepparttar crowning qualities of self-confident champions. Think ofrepparttar 101547 gardener who plants a seed and then waits for it to sprout and grow. He waters and nourishesrepparttar 101548 seed even when he doesn't see immediate results, having faith thatrepparttar 101549 seed will develop into a beautiful plant. Persist! Ask yourself: What will I do today for my dream?

4.HAVE A SUCCESS PARTNER. Having a success partner to encourage and support you especially when you are discouraged or frustrated can makerepparttar 101550 difference in achieving a goal. Sometimes our vision is blurred by distraction or discouragement. Having a supportive partner who wants big things for you and believes in you can help you stayrepparttar 101551 course. You can do it on your own, but you don't have to do it alone. Ask yourself: Why not give myselfrepparttar 101552 benefit of having a success partner to support me in stayingrepparttar 101553 course?
