Foundational Recipes For Success- Part I

 Foundational Recipes For Success- Part I

In this article, I will be analyzing what I call ”The Success Foundational Recipes”.

You will agree with me that everything that’s standing definitely has a foundation.

Success! One of the most uttered words and most desired experiences within the sphere of humanity. We all have different definitions for this common but powerful experience.

I won’t bother creating another definition, I’d rather say success is achieving & fulfilling a desired goal or aspiration.

Notice the key words ‘achieving & fulfilling a desire goals or aspiration.’

For every structure, there are building blocks or organized fragments influencing its standing. In food making, it is called ingredient or recipe. Success also is made up of such building blocks, building blocks which I call ‘Success’ Foundational Recipes’.

Pay attention to this, “Whatever you see standing has a foundation, and whatever can no longer stand has an altered foundation.”

Any successful man had these recipes implemented at different level of the accumulative process of his Success. Truth has it that some successful men are less aware or conscious of these recipes, somehow through their subconscious; they had it applied to their endeavors. Though, the subconscious use of them is not as effective as the conscientious use of them. We can simply say a man who is not appropriately conscious of these recipes is under utilizing their potential and there is no way such man can be as successful as he ought to be.

Before you can ascend to every other branches of success, these recipes must be laid as building blocks of your success foundation. So what are these recipes?

They are comprised in what is called ‘Emotional Intelligence’.

Emotional Intelligence simply means the understanding of emotions and the use of it to relate better with other people, form healthier relationships, achieve greater success in any field of life and lead a more productive lifestyle.

Emotional Intelligence is the ability to monitor one’s own and other people’s emotions. The power to discriminate between different emotions among your peers and physical environment. The ability to perceive, understand, interpret and relate within and without successfully.

“Yes? That a simple thing!”  You may say, but let me short live your thought right now. Remember I said these recipes are comprised in Emotional Intelligence. That is, Emotional Intelligence is a tree with branches. Now, let’s see what these branches are. The recipes we talked of.

Now, these are the components that make up Emotional Intelligence.

Note them down and keep for the next article.

1-Intrapersonal  EQ

2-Interpersonal EQ

3-Adaptability EQ

4-Stress Management EQ

5-Genera Mood EQ

These are the components of Emotional Intelligence that form a structured foundation for success. You may plan, work and execute but if these recipes are not in place, it’s a mere effort that won’t yield a desired goal.

It’s like having the best and fastest Gas Cooker in your kitchen without gas to fuel it.

It’s like having the best and fastest car without Petrol to fuel it.

Having a well structured plan and ideas without Emotional Intelligence is like heading for defected goals and achievements.

Pay attention to this: “The practicability and applicability of the aforementioned recipes are what guarantee success in life.” These are one of the foundations you must build any aspiration on.  They are essential in decision making because they make success easy and attainable.

Observe this intently; 

“Success is easy if the foundational recipes are proportionally applied.”

Warren Buffet (the 3rd wealthiest billionaire in the world presently as this was written) says his outstanding achievement and success can be traced to his emotional intelligence. It’s comprised of 90% while the remaining 10% are other principles.

You see why this is necessary and vital? It’s the foundation that holds every other structures of success.

I will talk about these branches of Emotional Intelligence in my next article.
