About this ebook

When it comes to the issues of life, most people want to succeed but they never learn how. They wait for success to suddenly happen. That is equally ridiculous. Succeeding in anything requires planning, action and the right tools. This book has been written to address this issue, as well as giving and teaching you the right tools.

It is not easy to become successful. Otherwise more people would be successful. If you are not successful, you are doing something wrong. You must change if you must achieve success.
Most people, when setting their goals, imagine a simple and straight path towards their destination. However, the sad truth is that the path to reach your goals is hardly ever linear and clear.

This path has lots of obstacles and expecting to find a linear and straight path will surely derail you even before you start. On the contrary, anticipating obstacles will help you in conquering them more easily than what you have expected.

The ladder, principles illustrated in this book can be the most powerful tools that people can have at their disposal to achieve a truly successful life. Life is actually a game that has different phases, which include different problems, challenges, rewards, losses and wins. But, it will certainly become successful if a person faces it with positive mindset for success.

    Ladder to Success - Celestine Nwakaeze

    Conditions of success may include abundant money, but money in itself is not the only factor that determines success. There are other factors. Luck is not a tool for attaining success, and so should not be included in your plans. There are ‘tools’ for attaining success. These ‘tools’ are principles to be followed.

    For one who works harder for success, when people say he is lucky, he says ‘Yes’; and the harder he works the luckier he gets. That really sums up luck for me.

    Every principle of success handed over to you through this book is like a tool (success factor) you should work with to achieve your success. They are critical factors.

    In reality, most people want all the best things of life, but more often than not, they fail to do much for them to get started with their life's actual journey. There are some who just sit comfortably in the back seat while they let another person drive their lives for them.

    With new age ideas about success in these times, people have come to realize that success doesn't necessarily follow one straight line. There are lots of roads and detours that seem to lead to success.

    Success will never come close especially if you won't take action to achieve your dreams and goals in order to be successful. If you have set your goals in life, and you refuse to take action, you can never achieve success.

    I quite understand the fact that many are working seriously to achieve success in their chosen career, yet they have nothing to show forth. The reason is that they are not following the principles that can enable them achieve success.

    This book, Ladder to Success, has been written to acquaint you with comprehensive and easy-to-apply principles that can facilitate your success. The book is sure to help you climb to the top of the ladder, thereby leading to your desired success and achievement.

    "God, give me hills to climb, and strength for climbing" – Guiterman

    CHAPTER 1: Understanding Ladder to Success

    Success does not come by abstractness, in nothingness or in a vacuum. Between you and success, there is something that fills the gap. This is the mountain to climb. If you don't advance towards success, it will be there staring at you. The success you have at hand is equivalent to the distance you covered or the mountains or hills you climbed to get at it.

    Success comes to those who think about it and strive to attain it. Success, by itself, in most cases, doesn't just come to anyone. Those who have achieved success have gone in search of it. It is not hidden, anyway; it is available to anyone who desires and strives for it.

    Success comes to a pragmatist rather than a theorist. Theorists suggest and make plans but never act on them. Pragmatists get things done in order to achieve results.

    Wishes only cannot deliver success to your doorstep. You must take deliberate actions to make success a reality. Having wishes, dreams or fantasies without taking necessary actions bring stagnancy. Inaction is inimical to success. It means dwelling in fantasy.

    The successful person is that person who is able to fulfill their purpose of existence. In definition, success looks so simple, but it is more than what people think about it.

    "If you believe success is simply making (or having) a lot of money, you may be setting yourself up for failure". – GEOFREY JAMES.

    Anyone who defines success as making money is prone to be harried, stressed, and miserable. Success is not restricted to the rich only. It can be attained by those on both extremes of the economic divide. This means both the poor and rich can partake in success if they deliberately take necessary actions.

    Success is all about enjoying yourself. Some people are rich but cannot enjoy themselves; while some are rich and happy at the same time. Success can be seen as doing what you know you are supposed to be doing rather than pursuing an odd career.

    That is to say, your journey to success begins with discovering yourself. You can't be successful and unhappy at the same time. One thing with success is that it responds to principles. But that doesn't deny the fact that how you feel is very important. By the way, you are not successful if you are not happy.

    CHAPTER 2: The Meaning of Success

    Success, just like any other thing, is definitely not an accident. It happens for a reason and on purpose, whether people strive for it or not. Success is a wonderful world and concept. People keep striving for it all through their lives. Some people have been pursuing success all through their life time, yet they have not attained it; some pursue it for a long time before attaining it; yet others pursue it for a brief time and find it immediately they start the journey to success. Success, to some people, means the capture and domination of others.

    The real meaning of success actually comes in various forms and definitions. It depends on what a person is looking for in life, and it depends on the person's perspectives in life. In fact, perspectives about success can be as many as the stars above. But if you really want to know deeper about success, you have to narrow down your understanding. You need to know that there is actually a difference between successful accomplishment and true success.

    The understanding of success is different. For most people, success is when they have ongoing strings of accomplishments. And when these accomplishments are put together, they will add up into an ultimate obtainment in their lives known to them as success. Adding the entire accomplishments of a person's life or career can actually be viewed or considered as success in life. Therefore, success is the ongoing obtainment and realization of worthy, targeted results, which concerns life, actions, business or wealth.

    There is still a higher form of success; and there is also a higher form of achievement. This is referred to as ‘The Path to Real Success’. It is biblical that people move from 'Glory to Glory'--call it True Success.

    What does success mean to people? To different people, success can mean different things. But can anyone find the real meaning of true success that will apply to all people? Success is about discovering and implementing the 'Will of God' in your life, as well as fulfilling your Divine purpose--the reason why you created.

    Every person has a destiny to fulfill. All people actually have been sent on earth for a reason, a purpose. Regardless of how people got here, God already knew that they were coming; and He had fashioned out a purpose and plan for their lives, individually.

    Attracting success is all about the application of the spiritual principles which, if a person decides to activate, will produce the desired results of success. These essential, spiritual principles are given by Almighty God and are written in His word contained in the Bible. These principles are always available to those who desire to learn about them.

    It is the will of God that people prosper, be in good health, and enjoy life in true success. A good life in true success is life without disease, sickness, poverty, hopelessness, and misery.

    In fact, if a person has no hope beyond this life, regardless of how much money he may possess, living life with the fullness of the God kind of life is impossible. If people have hope in just the world alone, they will find themselves utterly overwhelmed by the sorrows of life; they will
