To be successful one must use wisdom. To be wise one must have or show experience, knowledge, and good judgment. Wisdom brings success. Without wisdom, the reliability of an action or decision regarding the application of experience, knowledge, and good judgment, you cannot experience success. Being successful depends on the time you use effectively. Have you ever wondered how the next person succeeded? What specifically did the person do that made success come their way? I’ve done it and, if you’re honest, you will too. Success has more to do with the state of being that you believe you can do whatever you choose.
I woke up early this morning because my TV was on and I hate sleeping with the TV on. However, what was on my screen captivated me. So I got out my pad and pen and started writing what the man was saying on the screen. This man was Mike Murdock, he is a world renowned televangelist and he wrote a book called The 7 Laws of Uncommon Success. He started talking about success and explaining that success is governed by laws. The implementation of this rule system determines whether or not you will experience rare success.
Let me reiterate here that we are talking about an unusual type of success. These laws govern those who are brave and go above and beyond. Those who are willing to take the initiative themselves work hard and achieve greatness are the people who experience rare success. I want to share how we can all experience uncommon success as entrepreneurs using these 7 Laws of Uncommon Success.
1. The law of difference: our differences provide our value and our value provides our reward.
Although we are all human and basically the same, there is something different about each and every one of us. We were all created to do something the other person can’t or won’t do. IF you don’t know your distinctive differences, you will never know what value you bring to others. As an entrepreneur, align your business idea with your passions. Your passions are those strong, barely controllable emotions you have about topics, people, places, or things. You can find your passion in your pain, information, desires and those you honor.
2. The Law of the Mind – Every battle in life begins as a mental battle.
You should always protect what enters your mind. It is important to take care of your mind because it is the breeding ground for everything you do. Either solve problems or create problems for your future. For entrepreneurs to be successful, they must be willing to invest in their minds. Fill it with knowledge by preparing it as an environment for learning. Your mind needs a goal or focus, images, conversation, and meditation. Your mouth should tell your mind what to think about. It is the place where you can create and produce faith in your ability to have confidence in your dreams and visions. The mind is a muscle that moves your imagination into reality. Your mind must inspire you to action.
3. The Law of Recognition- What you do not recognize will disappear from your life.
There is always a life lesson to learn. Every moment is a learning moment. Many times we can fail to see what has always been there in front of us all along. Something that we do not know that can be detrimental to our future is close to us. As entrepreneurs, we must ask ourselves what God is hiding in someone or something that I cannot see. If you don’t believe in God then you can start right there. Recognize that God is and always will be!
As entrepreneurs, we can take on more than we should too soon, and then when it doesn’t work, we’ll see it as a scam or unprofitable, when many times it’s as simple as doing too much too soon. We must focus on one idea before moving on to the next. Too many things happening at the same time can be distracting and distract you from recognizing the next step that could change your financial future.
4. The Law of Two-Two is necessary for multiplication.
Two is always better than one. Relationships with others matter. We all need each other. Yes! Sure you’re great alone but you need others. The book of Ecclesiastes, which is a book full of wisdom, says: “Two are better than one…a threefold cord is not easily broken” (Eccl. 4:9, 12). When God wants to bless you, he brings a person into your life.
Entrepreneurs must recognize who these people are. To experience financial freedom you will need to depend on others to purchase your products and/or services. Your willingness to strengthen your relationship with your target audience or customer depends on your ability to become financially independent.
5. The law of the place: your geographical location is important.
Your task or purpose in life is always for one person or group of people. When you are where you are meant to be, no one can compete with you. Never stay where God has not assigned you. You will not be honored for your differences if you are in the wrong place. As entrepreneurs we must know that our money is in the place of the problem that God has given you so that you can solve it for others. Remember that money is where God wants you to be.
6. The Law of Honor: Your future is determined by whom you have chosen to honor.
Honor is your ability to highly esteem someone by acknowledging their difference. Honor is the seed to access any environment on earth. Adaptation is the test of honor. It takes humility to honor another person for their differences. Honor is something that should be taught to people whom they should honor. Humility is a modest or low view of one’s importance. The important thing to know about honor is that it is a choice.
Entrepreneurs can shorten their learning curve by learning from the best. This can be done by studying a person, reading a book, researching online, or connecting with someone you choose to celebrate their distinctive differences rather than their weaknesses. Honor will decide who accepts you, desires you and rewards you. Honor qualifies for a different type of relationship, closer, growing and long-term.
If you are successful in life, you can trace it back to those you intend to honor. If it fails, it can be traced back to those whom it chose not to honor. Above all, you must honor the God of the universe to be successful at anything. All blessings come through the chain of authority.
7. The Law of the Seed: Give and it will be returned to you.
Seeds are all that has value. When you sow a seed it is rather words, honor, mercy, money, love, kindness, gratitude etc… Your seed must be wrapped in expectation. You must have a motivation as to why you are doing something. For entrepreneurs, this law simply means that something you have given will create for you the harvest you dream of having.
Remember that the seeds you sow may contain life or death. What you make happen for someone else, God can make happen for you. The future of your seed is hidden in your daily routine. Successful men do on a daily basis what unsuccessful men do occasionally.
These 7 laws are guaranteed to create rare success in your life as an entrepreneur. It is important that we maximize the time we are given to solve other people’s problems and become the beacon of light in someone else’s life or situation by providing the right products and/or services. The ingredients for success are: creativity gives birth to your future, structure supports your future, and habits create your future.
