Newminimalists are successful.
When you are failing at whatever you are doing it is common to attempt to learn from your mistakes. Sure there are some lessons to be taken from the experience of losing, failing, and screwing up. However, there is not too much to be gained by trying to eliminate all the mistakes you made the last time you failed to succeed.
I know that what I am about to suggest here is likely to be controversial. It maybe hard for you to accept: and, I have no empirical research to present to that might suggest that I know something about this subject.
However. First and foremost I urge you to review your past failures. Write down a list of the your most recent experiences when you did achieve an expected, or hoped for, success. In a separate column write down a list of your most recent experiences when you achieved some success. Now it is time to compare and contrast these two approaches. Which list is the most useful for your future success? What can you learn from either list? What can you disregard from either list?
My life has been full of unexpected experiences of success. These were unexpected because they were all grounded in the belief that someone showed in me. Mind you there was no lack of belief in myself that I could succeed with the mission before me. On each occasion my winning strategies, tactics, and processes were unconventional. And so, not surprisingly, during the progress of each great success I was dubbed "a maverick", "a cowboy", or "a discombobulator". All their labels described me and promoted my mission, vision, and cause. Clearly these labels proved to be important in my successes. They highlighted the fact that what I was doing was not traditional, conventional, or predictable to those who sought to mock me.
And therein lies the first lesson of success: not everyone will celebrate your success.
Success will breed success [see photo] if, and only if, you are willing to work hard to improve your strengths. If you are willing to improve your strengths then you will see your inherent weaknesses gradually fade away. Indeed the greater discipline you bring to your strengths the more opportunities will arise where for your particular talent, competence, skills, knowledge, etc can lead you to enjoy future success.

Newminimalists are successful because they hold a disciplined focus on individual needs [independent thought action, and belief] rather than being ruled by the demands of collective wants [ideology or theology]. You can become a Newminimalist if you follow the three-step process described on the homepage of my website. To begin your personal processes of unique change simply go to minimal-you.com
