“The future belongs to those who learn more skills and combine them in creative ways.” – Robert Greene
Did you know that you can transform your life with the power of your mindset, backed up by skills and action?
Do you want to learn the 3 most crucial elements to succeed in any field, not only Affiliate Marketing?
In this post, I will share the 3 most crucial elements for success in any field.
So, let’s read the full post and understand the 3 elements in depth.
(1) Mindset
I have come down to these 3 elements after studying more than 50 Super Affiliates.
You know, after studying over 50 Super Affiliates, I have realized that the difference between successful and unsuccessful people is their thinking gap. In simple words, successful people think differently than unsuccessful people.
Let me first share with you how your mindset affects your life. I will share something that happened when I was in school. It was the month of October and the year was 2008. After finishing the classes on a sunny yet chilly Thursday afternoon, it was announced that our mid-term examinations were to begin after a week.
The examination timetable was distributed.
I started studying on Sunday and completed the entire syllabus before the exams. I usually scored between 80 and 85 percent, so almost every teacher had high hopes.
Fast forward to the last exam. After the exams were over, I was confident of scoring 90 percent. So, I went home, relaxed, watched Tom and Jerry, and enjoyed the weekend playing cricket.
Our results were declared and to everyone’s surprise, one student scored 92%. I know scoring 92% is not surprising and I am sure some of you may have scored 99% in MCA CET. 😉
Anyhow, everyone was surprised because the student who scored 92% usually used to score…
… less than 60%.
Although I was happy with my scores, I was curious to ask him how he did it. Finally, during the lunch break the following week, I was able to ask him what he did differently.
His answer left me awestruck! His answer left me astonished!
He said and I quote, “Shubham Bhai, I usually scored about 60% and this time, I wanted to set a new personal best!”
“OK!”, I said.
Then he continued, “I scored about 60% and I was not happy with my performance. I am lazy and that affected many things in life. So, for this exam, I set a goal of scoring about 95%. I know this sounds funny, but if I wanted to do better, I had to set a far bigger goal than I could imagine.”
Then I asked, “What did you change?”
He said something that changed me and I am sure it will change you, so read carefully. He said, “I had to change my thinking. I had to stop considering myself an average student and start to have a better image of myself in my eyes. I changed the way I used to look at myself. I started to think that I am a topper and my habits and actions started to change.”
So, from this real-life incident, I learned that thinking and mindset play an important role in molding our lives.
But, mindset only changes our course. If we do not take action and develop the skillset, thinking positively won’t change anything. We must couple mindset with skillset and action, alright?

(2) Skills
This brings me to the second segment of this video, skillset. I want to ask you a question: Will you learn to swim only by watching videos and reading blogs?
You won’t, right? Similarly, if you want to achieve anything in life, you must develop the required skills. Do you want to become the best Affiliate Marketer in the world?
* Raises hand *
You need to develop your skills. There are no shortcuts. You cannot become the best if you cut corners. You must go through the grind of developing your skills. Your business will grow to the extent that you grow.
Whatever you need to achieve, you will have to develop the required skills. If you do not want to develop your skills, if you do not invest your time to develop your skills, you will have to live a mediocre life. If you do not develop your skills, you will live an average life.
If you do not develop the skills required to achieve your goals, you will work for someone to achieve their goals. Do you know that every year 2,50,000 kids that come out of high school play basketball want to play in the NBA?
Do you know how many out of 2,50,000 play in the NBA?
Only 5!
Out of 2,50,000 only 5 play in the NBA.
Life is great only for a few people. You decide how you want to live your life. Do you want to live a bad life? Do you want to live an average life? Do you want to live a great life?
Develop the skills required to live the life you want to live. If you want to become the best Affiliate Marketer, the best web designer, the best textile engineer, you have to develop the skills required to become the best, alright?
Search on Google what it takes to develop the skills.
Do you want to become a fluent English speaker? The answer is available on Google.
Do you want to develop your communication skills? The answer is on Google.
For every skill that you want to develop, the steps are available on Google.
Without developing the skills, you cannot become the best. Nothing comes easy in life. You will have to grind, you will have to work hard, and you will have to develop your skills. Without the required skillset, your thinking will not lead you closer to your goals. Thinking is only planting the seed. Developing the skillset is the fertilizer, OK?

(3) Action
Now, let’s talk about the third most crucial element for succeeding, action.
Let me ask you a question: Can you become the best dancer, the best singer, the best designer, only by reading and watching videos?
Do you think only gathering information will make you the best?
No matter how intelligent you are, if you do not take action, you will never achieve your goal. To win a 100-meter sprint, you will have to run, isn’t it? To achieve anything, you will have to take action. You cannot ever achieve your goals if you are lazy to take action.
Tomorrow never comes. And the next Monday is 1 year or 2 years away!
Take action if you wholeheartedly want to achieve your goals and change your life.
Do you know what leaves me in splits? Many of my students give 2 excuses all the time:
- Sir, I do not have time.
- Sir, I do not have money.
And the same people spend hours on Netflix. And the same people spend thousands on stuff to show off on social media.
These excuses are not going to help you! You are lying to yourself, not to me. If you want something, you will find a path. If you do not want something, you will find excuses.
Conclusion
So, the three most crucial aspects for success are:
- Mindset
- Skills
- Action
You must work on these three if you want to live an amazing life.
There are no shortcuts! If you want to become the best, you will have to work on the three, alright?
