What are you willing to do?

By Guest Blogger, Tom Murray

I spent a few years in the Navy training to fly airplanes and competing for a chance to fly fighter jets. One of my good friends had recently been selected for jets so I asked him “What can I do to increase my chance for selection?” He replied “It’s all about how badly you want it and what you’re willing to do to get it.” He then went on to explain the level of commitment required such as long study sessions and giving up some weekends with my friends. I took that to heart. I spoke to myself, “I want this more than anything and will do whatever it takes.” I decided to spend a lot of money that I didn’t have on a brand new computer and accessories that I needed to enhance my studying. I also commuted an hour and a half round trip between flights to my apartment to use the computer. Ultimately, I was selected to fly jets.

So what do you want? How badly do you want it? What are you willing to do to get it? For example, you may want peace, happiness, you soul mate, or a new car. I’ll give you a few tips on how to achieve your desires. First, surround yourself with the people who have achieved what you want to achieve. Listen to them carefully and follow their guidance. Understand that you may have to change your current strategy, maybe even drastically. Secondly, be willing to do the things you do not want to do. It’s easy to do the things you like to do, but those actions are already producing the results you see right now. You may need to stretch yourself financially, sacrifice free time, and get out of your comfort zone. Those are all temporary circumstances on the path to success!
