The road to success is not a straight, well-paved highway with carpool options. There are twists and turns, obstacles, walls, forks, intersections, and other drivers who could potentially crash into your chances of being successful. That road is long and hard. Thus, it is important to equip oneself with a positive attitude and throw away the things that hold can hold you back. On your road to success, here is what you need to give up to reach your goals.

Pain is something people experience differently. And most of the time, pain holds a person back. One can be afraid of feeling the same pain that brought them to their knees. When one remembers the pain, they stop before any hurdle, thinking about the time they stumbled and scratched their knees.

Fear is perhaps the biggest and heaviest baggage that keeps one from achieving success. Usually, fear goes hand in hand with pain. People fear rejection, failure, fear of not knowing what happens next. They are afraid of pain and getting hurt, afraid of starting from scratch. Having fear is good. But if fear dictates your every move, you won’t go very far.

Lastly, you have to give up complacency if you want to succeed. Complacency tells you that you’re okay where you are now, or that you’ve done enough for today. Keep in mind that complacency is easy, and success is hard work.
