As I am not home and the laptop broke down and I don’t have any modern gadgets that have internet access like a table I had no option but to look for an internet cafe to send my daily quote and to post my daily posts. As I am in a big city not far from the center I just went to the hotel desk and asked where I could use the internet. There was one, but it was closed. Try tomorrow morning. As I wanted to do my daily posts I pushed a bit, but no solutions came from the people behind the front desk. I decided to try my luck and just roam around a bit. I thought I knew the area quite a bit from some time ago and an internet cafe could not be far. How wrong I was. It was very quiet outside and despite it is a big city the streets were almost deserted. Also most, or actually practically all shops and businesses around were closed. A bit scary, but I decided to push through.
There were a lot of taxi drivers around who tried to sell me a ride, but I didn’t feel like taking a taxi. I did get the hunch to ask one of them and he came with an answer, pointed a direction and it sounded like not too far away. So I decided to go and after a while I indeed found an internet cafe, probably the one that was pointed out to me. And I was very happy to have found it as it was a bit further than I expected and I was about to give up or find another way. So the post title is “Search and you will find”, but after writing it and starting to write the post I realized that I had done a little bit more than just searching and finding. First, I had the desire to do my daily inspiration for success things. Next I decided to gather some information, do research, ask. Then I made my plan and after that I took the action of implementing my plan. And while researching I was quite a bit persistent to get what I wanted and I was also persistent in continuing finding what I wanted to find by just walking a little bit further than I thought the distance would be.
I also realized I was careful to keep track of the road so I could go back to the hotel and also careful looking around for danger as it was quite late in a big city I’m not familiar with where it was a bit too quiet to be or feel fully safe. I also realized that Infinite Intelligence pointed me in the direction to ask a taxi driver and that the taxi driver I asked also had the right answer.
So maybe the principles of success are that simple and I even implemented them in a very natural way in this case. So for the bigger successes I”m looking for maybe I just need to scale it up a bit. Maybe that’s all.
