Who are you modeling your actions and behaviors from? Who has already succeeded in what you’re trying to accomplish? How did they do this?
Try to tease out the similarities between multiple people who have achieved success in whatever field in which you are interested. What sets them apart from their peers? Is it their mindset? Their overall strategy? What specific tactics did they use to obtain the results you desire and are there any pitfalls by using those same tactics? Will they still work in today’s world or are the tactics outdated? For example, if that person did something in 1980, the specific tactics they performed may or may not work today. But can you figure out the concept behind what worked and apply that to fit in today’s market?
Success leaves clues. It is up to you to investigate and determine how others’ successes can help improve your situation.
