To a large extent, the success of a person is dependent on the person’s capacity to impact lives. When people can get something positive from you, when people's lives get better after they come in contact with you, not only will they keep coming back, they will also recommend you to others. This will not only usher you into success but will also guarantee your growth and catapult you to even greater success.
There are many beneficial goods, products and services that you can offer to people, all that it entails is for you to identify at least one need and go ahead to meet it. In furtherance of this, I will be discussing just 4 avenues through which you can impact people’s lives. From these avenues, you can extract various ways you can improve the lives of people.
Accelerate your success by providing these 4 things for people:
SECURITY: Security is generally defined as the state of being free from danger or threat. This encompasses a wide range of senses such as food security, freedom from want and emotional security. As we all know, food is one of the top needs of mankind. Providing food whether you decide to start as a plant or animal farmer, a wholesaler or retailer, is one of the ways to guarantee your success. Food will always be in demand and consequently, the supplier of food will always be in demand.
Freedom from want can be described as provision of a particular standard of living for people that will ensure that they live comfortably by having the ability to cater for their needs. The sure way to make this possible for people is to avail them with a viable source of income. This can be done either by employing them under you or being instrumental to their being employed by other people. Doing any of these will accelerate your success.
Emotional security has to do with how happy a person is. As such, there are many factors that can contribute to this. Some of these factors include environmental factors, stress, the health of a person, and so on. A popular saying even goes thus, health is wealth; Wealth here does not translate to mean only financial wealth but wealth in every area of a person’s life. The primary focus of a person who is unhealthy is to become healthy, every other area of that person’s life therefore becomes relegated to the background pending when the person’s health is restored. Where a person is able to devise one or various means to improve people’s environment or alleviate stress or improve their health, the success of such a person is certain.
PEACE OF MIND: This is a mental state devoid of worry and anxiety. The presence of problems automatically leads to worry and anxiety. The person who therefore proves to be an ardent provider of solutions to the problems of people has a sure ticket to achieving and growing success. The ability to identify a problem and proffer a solution, will cause a person to be in high demand. When people have their worries taken away, they are able to rest assured and thrive in all areas of their lives. They are able to give the required attention to the areas which need it. You do not have to be a jack of all trades to do this as problems come in various forms. All you need to do is start by identifying one problem and formulating workable solutions to it then make it known to people and they will flock to you.
FREEDOM: Two definitions come to mind here. The first is as regards freedom being the absence of necessity, coercion, or constraint in choice or action. The second is the liberation from slavery or restraint or from the power of another. one’s self. It goes a step further to mean independence in its totality, being one's own boss. The provision of this involves the impartation of knowledge. A person therefore needs to be in a good position to impart this knowledge on people; this is where mentorship comes in. A good mentor should be able to open the eyes of people and lead them from dependence to independence—teach them how to stand on their feet. When you are in the business of not just providing fishes for people but also teaching them how to fish, people will gravitate towards you.
FUN: All human beings need rest in order to maintain efficiency and effectiveness in all spheres of life. Without adequate rest, the body and mind will initially slow down in giving the normal output and eventually breakdown. The need for rest is highlighted by the presence of day and night. The day is normally meant for work and the night is normally meant for rest. Further, it is highly unlikely for a person to perform with 100 per cent efficiency even in the course of the day without needing to take a break. Even with the breaks, the body and mind still continue to wind down as the hours go by. In addition to actual sleep, rest comes in other forms. It could be just a period of inactivity where a person remains conscious and alert but desists from engaging in mental or physical exertion. It could also be a period of activity aimed at relaxing both body and mind, this is what is normally referred to as having fun. It falls under the classification of needs that can never be permanently met; the body and mind will always require rest therefore that need must be constantly met. Having established that rest in all its forms is a necessity, a person who therefore provides avenues through which this necessity can be met, is definitely providing an avenue for his/her unending success.
