Speaker 1 (00:00):
Did you know that 92%
of people never achieve their
goals?
That means, guys, that only 8%turn their dreams into reality.
It's nothing, but how can weimprove this gap?
And what if there existssomething really ancient that
(00:23):
can help you to reach yourdreams?
Hi guys, my name is Fabio fromJourney to Success, and welcome.
Today we will explore the sevensecrets of success, guided by
Shiva, where we can embark on ajourney of self-growth, as
always, but this time we'regoing to discover a state where
(00:44):
success and happiness naturallyarise.
Meanwhile, you follow theseseven steps as if it is your
Bible, but before to go forward,as always, please subscribe.
So I know this is the rightdirection to drive you, to lead
you, to guide you towards yourjourney to success, and let's
(01:06):
get started alright, as always.
So, first of all, these sevensteps are important for everyone
, ok, but especially withindividuals who often struggle
with fear of failure, lack ofdirection and, of course,
(01:28):
self-doubt in their way topursue success.
So today I would like to sharea thread I discovered on Google
about a person who embodies allthree of these feelings.
Okay, here is the message.
Hey guys, I really hope youguys can help to find a solution
(01:52):
to my problem slash weakness.
This very instant I just feel soweak and incompetent.
My problem right now is that Ican't pay attention to small
details.
You know how sometimes thereare those moments when a small
detail makes the big difference.
(02:13):
Well, I've encountered thosescenarios numerous times.
This weakness of mine makes mebelieve that I can't get a job
done with going through a lot offailures.
For instance, if I was given asimple task such as hanging a
(02:34):
picture frame up, it would takeme many tries before I could
hang it perfectly, because Iwould not pay attention to small
details if the picture is inthe center, if I'm using the
right nail for the job.
Recently I just got hired as atelemarketer and now I'm
(02:57):
doubting myself if I can makethe daily sales Weakness I need
time to take in certaininformation.
I'm not a fast thinker.
Number second can't payattention to small details
because I am always think aboutmultiple things at that time.
And number three, because ofthe above weakness, if I was
(03:22):
given a job, I'd be afraid thatI won't meet their requirements.
I just want to add this littledetail I'm the kind guy who
believes in you have to earn itkind of thing.
For instance, I could dresssharp and nice like Ryan Gosling
(03:43):
or Brad Pitt, but I don'tbelieve that I deserve the image
that I'd be portraying bydressing sharp.
If you were to see someonedressed like Ryan Gosling, you
would expect them to be, youknow, sophisticated and
intelligent, sophisticated andintelligent.
(04:12):
But if you were to come andtalk to me, oh boy, you'd be in
for shocker.
And here, guys.
Here it ends the message.
So there's a lot to say.
First of all, I wish thisperson good luck and I truly
hope he finds peace and purposein his life.
All right, I hope he candiscover podcasts like mine, or
even better ones, and I reallyhope he can go through.
(04:36):
Anyway, as you can see here,this message highlights the
internal struggles a personfaces when dealing with the fear
of flaws, self-doubt and thechallenge of achieving any kind
of success.
There are various ways toovercome these feelings and I
(05:01):
invite you to check my previousepisodes as well, if it can help
during your journey, you know.
But today we're going to explorethe seven secrets of success
from Shiva to understand how todo that.
So the first secret isdetermination.
It looks disappointed, right, Imean.
(05:23):
Someone may say, yeah, ofcourse it's determination.
Well, I'm going to give you anoverview that you're going to
remember.
So far, I swear.
The point is what do you reallywant to do in your life, guys?
What do you hope to achieve?
Are you putting enough effortto reach those goals, yes or not
(05:50):
?
Some may answer yes, whileothers may say no.
The point, a strong point, isthat your determination should
be as strong as if you werechained for a day with a bowl of
(06:11):
water just out of reach.
Out of reach and by the secondday, without a drink.
You'd be so thirsty that you'ddo whatever it takes to stretch
your legs and even break yourarm to get that water.
That should be the rightmotivation.
Okay, your determination is bigenough or not, to achieve this
(06:39):
water?
How is your Thursday, guys?
How is your anger?
Determination must be big.
Shiva says that if peoplecriticize us, we have to
maintain our path and purposewith determination.
If we are wealthy or poor, itdoesn't matter.
(06:59):
We remain focused on ourdecisions and even if we are
close to facing death, we mustnot give up.
That's the type ofdetermination you need.
Okay, for Shiva, and in thiscase, more Yojibajan.
Yojibajan was the yoga guru whointroduced his version of
(07:23):
Kundalini yoga For him.
There are three groups ofpeople I think this concept is
very interesting so the peoplewho won't take responsibility
and become defeated.
Then we have a second group, soa second group of people who
will give up when things becomedifficult.
And then there is a third groupof people that will continue
(07:48):
with their decision, withdetermination.
So it doesn't matter, you knowwhat is going on around them.
You know what is going onaround them, so I don't know
about the rest of the world, butyou guys the one who listen to
my podcast must be in the thirdgroup, alright, so you have not
to give up, never, never, never,never, and just remember that.
(08:14):
You know failing, failures arepart of the process.
Number two Shraddha.
Shraddha means towards goals.
This is an ancient word thatencapsulates what it means to
(08:34):
move consistently towards ourlife missions.
Okay, it is not that difficultif you think about it.
You know what I mean.
Think about your favoritesoccer player.
They possess determination,focus, direction and a mission.
Hopefully, with a mission, theymake a goal as well.
(08:54):
So to achieve your dreams, itis essential to concentrate and
be committed to one thing thatyou truly care about, and that
is your ball guys After that,move forward with determination,
facing, of course, the ups anddowns that come from obstacles.
(09:18):
Okay, lastly, celebrate smallmilestones along the way and
reach your ultimate dream.
Number three reverence, ordignity.
Here there is a connection withthe divine.
That is important for sure, andregardless of your level of
(09:42):
spirituality, this connectioncan also be understood as the
relationship you have withyourself.
So when we talk about reverence, we're talking about humility,
we're talking about respect.
Okay, if we like to find abetter synonym, I think you can
refer yourself as a, as arespect, when we talk about a
(10:05):
reference.
So what does it mean?
Well, it means that we cannotbe egocentric or self-centered
if we are truly respectful tothe divine or to ourselves.
I want to give an example toclarify better this point, as I
understand this maybe can be alittle bit complicated.
(10:27):
So one of the previous namesfor my podcast guys was the
Fabio podcast From Failure toSuccess the Fabio podcast from
failure to success.
While there is nothing wrongwith the title, of course, I
realized that it was too focusedon myself and since my
(10:49):
intention is to make my ego moreself-conscious about who I am
and the impact I can have inthis life, I decided to change
the podcast name to somethingless self-centered in order to
remain humble.
You know what I mean.
So I chose that this podcastshould represent all of us and I
changed the name to Journey toSuccess, which places less
(11:13):
emphasis on myself.
So Journey to Success placesless emphasize on myself.
So journey to success.
And then later, below on below,we have fabio posca.
The same applies to the conceptof dignity.
All right, it means that peoplewill trust, admire and respect
us.
This is essential because ifyou want to become the best
(11:39):
version of yourself, you have toremember that building a good
reputation in our field isimportant.
Additionally, we must rememberto stay humble and recognize
that our achievements oftenresult from a combination of
factors like events, challenges,a bit of luck and both direct
(12:06):
and indirect help from others.
Number four balance.
The fourth step is balance.
Shiva says it's very importantto be balanced in mind and body,
so we can't feel superior topeople or feel inferior.
If you live in an emotionaltwister, having a pinch of
(12:30):
happiness is dangerous as muchas having sadness and so on.
Okay, so everything has to bein balance.
The moment you find balance isthe moment your mind is calm,
and when your mind is calm, whathappens?
Well, you can perform better inanything you do to achieve
success, and in this situation,you might consider trying some
(12:56):
meditation or breathingexercises.
You know, even a few minutes ofmindfulness each day can help
you slow down and achieve abetter balance, putting far the
agitated environment or busylifestyle you currently have.
Number five self-restraint.
(13:18):
The fifth step isself-restraint.
So Shiva reminds us thatwithout self-control, we cannot
accomplish anything concrete.
Okay, you must have the rightcontrol over your environment.
So what happens outside of youand especially what happens
(13:40):
within you, understand yourselfin a way that allows you to have
more control over your life andfinally write down a plan.
That is fundamental, you know,to achieve your dreams.
The sixth step is balance foodand diet.
The sixth step is balance foodand diet.
Eating important food in smallamounts is best for calm mind
(14:07):
and body.
Guys, shiva emphasized that alltypes of food, whether you know
, meat, vegetables, fruitsshould be beneficial for the
mind, body and spirits.
Okay, while it's important tochoose food carefully, making
(14:27):
thoughtful selections ofanything is preferable to acting
on cravings.
What does it mean?
I remember a thread on somewebsite or forum where someone
claimed that it was importantfor any yogi to avoid eating
meat.
Then a yogi responded and saidthat they regularly eat meat
(14:52):
with respect and that if you eat, in a compulsive way, only
vegetables, it's worse thaneating you know respectfully
meat.
So you know it's more complexthan we might think.
Now I'm not here to defendanyone, and that's not even the
(15:14):
point of this podcast.
The point is that it is notabout what you eat, but it's
about how you eat.
Also, talking about myself,guys, if I eat badly, in a rush
way or maybe you know, too muchlate, I cannot sleep and this
can be negatively impactful theday forward.
(15:38):
And let's say that the dayforward I have some guest, or
simply I have a big plan to workon my podcast.
You know, the seventh step isquite fascinating.
I'm sure it will surprise youas well.
(15:59):
Shiva explains that the seventhstep is that there is no one,
there is no step.
He ends by emphasizing theimportance of remembering all
the previous steps.
That's it.
This could suggest that eachstep is powerful in itself and
(16:20):
we shouldn't wait for a finalstep to lead us to success.
You know, by fully embracingeach of these simple steps,
success will naturally follow.
Also, yoji Bhajan's seventhstep doesn't exist either.
So the seventh step for him ishappiness, happiness.
(16:42):
You know, happiness, likesuccess, is not something you
achieve by doing it, but bysimply being so.
The six steps help youcultivate a mindset that allows
you to be happy to reach theseventh step.
Okay, it's very interesting howthese steps can be helpful in
(17:04):
reaching, naturally, success andhappiness.
Guys, truly, you might thinkthat success and happiness are
separate, right, but they're not.
Of course.
They work on the same ability,but they're not, of course.
They walk on the same binary.
Honestly, I believe happinessis the foundational stage of
success, with nothing elserequired to achieve it, only the
(17:27):
fact that you are reaching solohappiness is a successful stage
itself.
In fact, if we think aboutShiva, he says to be successful
in mind, body and spirit,cultivating the divine within us
(17:49):
.
As this is true success, nowtry blending these steps into
your own life and see whathappens.
I already started myself usinga few of these steps and I can
tell you there is a big changealready.
Now let's quickly recap theseven secrets of success.
(18:15):
Number one determination.
Determination is key.
What do you truly want?
Are you putting enough effortfor it?
Your determination should be asstrong as if you were chain and
the only thing saving you is abowl of water just out of reach.
Stay focused, no matter what.
All right, shredda.
(18:39):
Number two Faith and consistency.
Stay consistent and committedto your goals, like you know a
soccer player aiming for a goal.
Focus on your mission and keepmoving forward, no matter the
(19:02):
obstacles.
Number three reverence ordignity.
Respect yourself and others.
Humility is important for truesuccess, guys.
When you build dignity, peoplewill trust and admire you and
you will grow stronger in yourjourney.
Number four balance.
Balance your mind and body.
(19:24):
Okay, stay calm and balanced toperform better.
A calm mind helps you make wisedecisions and stay on track
towards success.
Remember that.
Number five self-restraint, soself-control, is crucial, guys.
Understand yourself and controlyour environment.
(19:47):
Develop a plan to stay focusedand in control of your life.
Number six balanced diet.
Eat in moderation to maintain acalm mind and body.
Okay, it is not about what youeat, guys, but how you eat, so
choose foods that boost bothyour body and spirit.
(20:12):
Lastly, we have the step that ismore a result of the previous
ones.
That's happiness, and let's saythe final secret is happiness.
So it's not something youachieve by doing, but by being
Okay.
This is the seventh step.
So embrace all the steps andhappiness and success will

naturally follow.
