Often the most profound and impacting truths are very simple. The same goes for success. Here are 4 simple success secrets you can apply to experience remarkable results.

Forget Your Past

Forget who you think you are and everything you've ever experienced. If you want to truly live your dreams, you can't let anything in your past hold you back. That may be hard for some people becuase define themselves by their past experiences. But all successful people never let their past dictate their future. What they do is take control over the present moment and leverage it in their favor. Just remember that everything has a cause and an effect. Your present moment is nothing more than the result of all the past decisions you have made. So if you want to change your future, change the present.

Set Outrageous Goals

When I say set outrageous goals, I don't mean just big goals. I mean completely insane, outrageous, unbelievable goals that cause you and everyone you know to shudder in absolute disbelief. To some that may sound frightening, but to me it sounds exciting. Since big goals requires more time, effort, and persistance than small goals, the rewards will be far greater and worthwhile. And if the pursuit of a goal isn't worth it in the end, then what's the point? Go big or go home.

Get Comfortable Being Uncomfortable

Every single person who has ever achieved worth while has experienced discomfort and doubt in the beginning. It's normal to feel these feelings at first. Since you're leaving your comfort zone, your brain is simply doing its job to protect you from danger. So learn to live with it and embrace change. Brian Tracy once said, "Move out of your comfort zone. You can only grow if you are willing to feel awkward and uncomfortable when you try something new." Remember that fear and doubt are only a state of mind. Accept that these feelings are just part of the game, but don't let them stop you.

Blow Your Mind

If you really want to reach a level of success you previously would have considered impossible, then you need to completely blow your mind. Because once you reach a mind blowing level of success, everything your previously believed about your potential will be completely invalid. Let's face it, you will never experience life changing results if you stay within your comfort zone. So there's really no reason to set small goals. Les Brown, a famous motivational speaker and TV personality once said, "Most people fail in life not because they shoot too high and miss; most people fail in life because they shoot too low and hit; or they don't even shoot at all." So make a decision to go for the 'impossible'. Strive to achieve a mind blowing level of success.

"Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars." - Les Brown
