Things You Need to Know About Life And position Your Way To Success.

1. Noise: We are living in a world of noise. The noise may be physical, psychological, and mental. The noise can be so deafening that you can be sucked in and disoriented sometimes. Take social media, a term that only about twenty years ago existed, and the noise in some of the hot social media sites can make you dizzy. 

According to statista.com, in 1918 there were approximately 2.7 billion active monthly social media users worldwide, a figure expected to grow to around 3.02 billion by 2021. You're going to lose your way if you follow all the noise threads in social media.

Yet there are tremendous gems of opportunity and learning on these platforms. Search carefully in the middle of the noise and you will discover gold nuggets. For example, if you want to learn e-commerce, find e-commerce groups where you can learn accordingly what you want and you will be one leg up.

2. Distractions: We are living in a distraction world. While noise is generated to confuse, you are lured by distractions from your chosen path. Pornography is the most powerful distraction. It can be addictive to watch pornography, like alcohol. 

Next is advertising in the distraction bar, the type that follows you wherever you go on the internet. Big companies can track everything you do online, using powerful algorithms, and program their pay-per-click advertisements accordingly to follow you wherever you go. 

Pay attention to the site you are visiting. Select the search engines that you use carefully. Select those that do not use algorithms to monitor you.

3. Everything goes: we live in something going on in a world. Did you see these frightening tattoos? Did you see the massive boobs that implanted silicon chips kept massive? By implanting silicon chips, have you seen those massive asses keeping massive? Do these things undermine or are right our humanity. Do we all have the right to use our bodies as we wish? Be careful, mentality can cause you to lose perspective.

Do what will make you a good role model for your kids and grand-kids and desist from the path that seems easy, popular and licentious but leads to vanity.

4. Easy money: We live in a world where making money is like a walk through the park. Gone are the days where you needed to work for donkey years before you smelled your first one million dollars or never at all in your lifetime.

Today we live in a world that mints millionaire by the minute. A twenty-something-year-old boy or girl can figure out an app, or lunch a website, and before you know he has generated millions with or without an initial public offering. 

With this hoopla about how easy it is to make millions, you may think that hard work is no more necessary. On the contrary. 

Making millions today requires exceptional skills not evenly spread within the population, countries, and geographies. What's required? Learn new skills that can and will position you to make your millions.

5. Thieves: We live in a world full of scoundrels. For every person planning to do good, there are ten out there planning how to swindle you out of your hard-earned money. There are people out there looking for ways to steal your password, there are people out there looking for ways to steal your personal identification number, and there are people out there looking for ways to defraud you. Though the long arm of the law is always out there to bring them to justice, some have perfected their game and are always one step ahead of the law. 

This calls for vigilance. Be careful with the type of information you post on social media. Keep how much millions you have made or making a secret and not a bragging right.

6. Freedom: We live in a world that champions freedom and rights. Despite occasional attempts by anarchist groups to seize parts of some countries and territories and impose their will on the hapless, we live in a world that values freedom in all its glory. From freedom of speech, freedom of worship and everything else in between, you're guaranteed freedom.

But there is the underside of freedom. Some people turn freedom into a license to do as they like. Be careful. Choose your freedoms and rights carefully because your right ends where another person's right begins. Choose freedom and rights that are ennobling.

Choose values and role models that point you in the direction of success and not those that lead to self-destruction.

7. Knowledge: We live in a world suffused with knowledge. They say our smartphones carry more computing power than the Apollo Spacecraft that landed a man on the moon in 1969. Today there is more knowledge generated in a day than it used to be generated in a year just 30 years ago. However, there is a difference between knowledge and data, and there is a difference between knowledge and wisdom. Choose wisdom over directionless knowledge and the world will accord you recognition.

There you have them, the top seven things you should know about today's world to position yourself for success. I will be the first to admit they are far from comprehensive. And they clearly overlap. However, they are good starting points to judge yourself as you aspire for success, however you want to define it. Thanks to technology, the world is becoming more egalitarian. The world is becoming more transparent and individually and collectively, we're becoming more knowledgeable.

Live your life wisely and before long you'll be on the way to success. Success does not come cheap. Invest in your future.
