The Process of Becoming Successful

The author is a Process Development Coach/Consultant and he realized that his own life was missing a process. Once he found his own process he began to find success. He believes that a process is a series of events that leads to a desired outcome. How does one create a good outcome, a successful outcome? That is done by how we respond to those events that occur in our lives. We cannot change the events but we can change our response to those events. The starting point is a destination, a vision, a goal. The goal may change and mature along the way, but a goal is essential. If you don't know where you are going you will never know when you get there. The most successful people are the ones that had the most challenges. And rest assured there will be challenges along the way but you cannot get to where you want to go by being the person you are today. You have to change and grow. Personal development is the maintenance that helps that growth. The only factor that holds us back is excuses.If the response does not give a good outcome, change the response to get the good outcome. That is the process.

Success is not an overnight miracle, but it is a process just like learning how to walk was a process. In this book, after a very insightful introduction on what is success, the author takes a five year boy, Mark, through his process of becoming a successful golfer, winning the Masters. One need not understand the game of golf to realize the principles presented. There are trials and tribulations but with Mark's support team, mentor, and passion, his goal is met. This is a very realistic struggle, one that we all can identify with on our journey to success. In the conclusion, the author will summarize seven steps which are essential to the process of becoming successful. They are:

•Capture your vision
