The Choices You Make Define Who You Are by Alvin Bolaños

Do you want to succeed in life? There are ways of becoming successful but there are simple steps you can follow to achieve success. It is true that the choices you make define who you are. Therefore, you must be consistent with the choices you make.


Step 1: Determine a choice The first step allows you to immediately identify three goals you like to achieve. Do you like to learn something new? Do you like to do something you haven’t done before? Do you want to see someone or do you want to be somebody? After you have identified what your goals are, immediately zero in what you want to do. Choose what excites you!

Step 2: Imagine the Result Immediately imagine the result of your choice/s. If you do this you’d certainly get what you want. Think of the best possible consequence/s of your choice because you finally made the choice. The best way is to put them into writing. Write a story on how you want the outcome to be. The more specific you are in writing what you want, the better. Begin with the first paragraph and continue writing until you have identified the consequences of your decision.

Step 3. Make Small Steps Don’t be put off because you have something big in your hands because of the choice you’ve just made. The most important thing is begin with a single small step to achieving your goal. Begin achieving your goal by doing something connected with achieving that goal.


In a nutshell: Combine all steps. Do them all every single day. You can do this by making yourself aware of the choice you’ve made, imagine the results of such decision and put them into writing. Lastly, do simple things in order to reach your goal. Choose the best time during the day to do this. The best time is to start now. Focus on possibilities.
