Success is Easy You Make it Hard 
By: Cheryl A. Clausen
You make it hard by telling yourself it's hard. You make it hard by avoiding action. The combination of your thoughts and your inaction is ruining any chance you have for success. Successful people think and act differently than unsuccessful people. You can adopt the thinking and the commitment to action that they have and you can succeed too. But here is why you probably won't.
Your thoughts are habits and it takes a conscious effort and determination to break any habit. If you've ever had a habit like smoking, drinking or drugs you know exactly how hard it is to break a habit. You may hate how a habit messes up your life, but it's still hard for you to change it.
It's hard to change your habits in spite of the grief they're causing you because on some level your habits are satisfying to you. Everything about the habit isn't satisfying and rewarding to you, but there is something about that habit that you enjoy and you don't want to give up. Figure out what about your unsuccessful habits is enjoyable to you. You can increase your success if you replace your unsuccessful thoughts with successful thoughts. Sometimes your unsuccessful thoughts are based on your belief that having or getting money is bad. Do you believe that money is hard earned? Do you believe there is something bad about having money?
You may not have thought about how you think about money or why you think that way, but you need to do that now. You have attitudes about money that you've had ingrained in your thoughts by the adults around you growing up as a child. But those attitudes may be success defeating and if you really think about them you may also recognize they aren't valid.
You make it hard, but success really is easy. Instead of thinking about what won't work and how you're going to fail start thinking in terms of how easy success is and how you will get that success because it is so . Thoughts alone will never be enough to produce success. You will have to take actions. Your hesitance to take actions is another reason success isn't easy for you.
Stop thinking things over stop waiting for anyone or anything else stop waiting for a sign and start taking action. You won't know if this is the right action to take unless you clearly know what you want, but when you do taking action is an easy decision. When an action will take you closer to success do it now, not later but immediately without any hesitation. Your thoughts and actions take you to success.
