3 Reasons Why Steve Jobs (Apple Computers) is a success

Legend Apple Computers, Steve Jobs, had a difficult start in life - which was given up for adoption at an early age, he left college after 6 months and bottles of Coca Cola for 5 cent deposits to buy food. Despite all this was to start Apple Computer and Pixar Animation Studios, and is now one of the most successful entrepreneurs of our time. So how?

Small manageable steps

As my clients know, the key to success is breaking at times overwhelming tasks into bite sized pieces so that the tasks are manageable and easy to share. For that reason I will elaborate on three of the rules now that I think Steve is critical to first consider: -

1. Do what you love to do

Steve says: "Find your true passion. Do what you enjoy doing and make a difference!. The only way to do great work is to love what you do .. "

I could not agree more! Doing a job that you do not like is like trying to fit a square peg into a round hole ... who slog their guts at work every day, but never seem to achieve the success you feel you deserve, and every day is a battle - or at least an obstacle to overcome - because it is spending the day and return home at night instead of enjoying the moment.

When you're focused on trying to get more and done with, or spend time on projects or tasks that are not interesting, which makes the task much more difficult for you. When the passion is there, and you love what you do, you become more productive, energetic and fun to be. What scenario do you think the success of the fastest and easiest way? As they say, is not rocket science.

So first things come first, if you want to be a success in life, it is important to spend time and effort in the realization of what you enjoy doing, and then find a strategy to achieve it. This sounds simple, but not necessarily easy - you have to be prepared to do some searching only true passion and discover what is really for you, instead of what they think their peers, family, friends or society expects. The fact that your parents want you to be a lawyer or an accountant up, does not mean that's where the success and passion for you.

2. Start small, think big

Steve says: "Do not worry about too many things at once. Take a handful of simple things to start, and then move on to more complex ones. Think not only tomorrow but the future."

Overpower can not literally stop in their tracks. It's a nasty epidemic that crushes many people in your path to success, so it's important to stay focused at all times. Overpower drags when we take our eye off the ball and allow a lot of other things to flooding in our conscious mind. A moment that is focused on mission-critical task that will accelerate your success, then the next minute you are thinking about a hundred other things you need to do - presto, comes overwhelm!

As I said before, if you break large tasks into small, manageable pieces you allow yourself to experience one success after another as to achieve each of the smaller tasks. This in turn build momentum and motivation, and also allow you to move in more complex tasks as you build confidence and eliminate overwhelm.

3. Being an entrepreneur

Steve says: "Find the next big thing. Find a set of ideas that we must act quickly and decisively on and jump out the window. Sometimes the first step is the hardest. Take it! Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. "

Very often I meet wonderful people, smart and elegant is a great idea or entrepreneurship, but are not willing to take the "leap" that talks about Steve. What usually happens in such cases is that they know what they want, but have not figured out how they will get, so stop and go.

While it is important to have a plan or strategy for implementing ideas, it is also vital that there be allowed to become so acute has focused on how you will achieve your goals that literally come to a halt. Sometimes I do not know all the answers, and that's fine - just go one step at a time and eventually all the details you need to be developed. The detainee, which is all you will get.

Jim Rowland once said, "Discipline weighs ounces, regret weighs tons." Having the discipline and courage to keep taking small step after baby step forward, and you will never regret the progress you make.
