There are 7 factors that can cause you to fail. By working to overcome these factors, you can release the brakes that are holding back your success.
1. UNWILLINGNESS TO TAKE RISKS: Success involves taking calculated risks. Risk-taking does not mean gambling foolishly and behaving irresponsibly. People sometimes mistake irresponsible and rash behavior as risk-taking. They end up with negative results and blame it on bad luck.
Risk-taking is relative. The concept of risk varies from person to person and can be a result of training. To both a trained mountain climber and a novice, mountain climbing is risky, but to the trained person it is not irresponsible risk-taking. Responsible risk-taking is based on knowledge, training, careful study, confidence and competence-factors that give you the courage to act while facing fear. The person who never attempts anything risky makes no mistake. However, not making the attempt is often a bigger mistake than making the attempt and failing.
2. LACK OF PRIORITIES: people make substitutions where they ought not to. For example,in relationships, they trade money gifts for affection and time. Some people find it easier to buy things for their children and spouse to compensate for their absence than to spend time interacting with them.
When we don't have our priorities right, we waste time, not realizing that time wasted is life wasted. Priorities requires discipline to do what needs to be done rather than taking action based on our moods and fancies. These days too much emphasis is placed on success and failure rather than doing one's best.
How do you cope with defeat and problem?
Your response to this question says a lot about your character. One of the keys to solving this mystery of success is understanding your priorities. Some people set their sight on money, power, fame or possessions. We have to understand our priorities.
Success does not come by reading or memorizing the principles that lead to success, but by understanding them and setting your priorities to apply them.
3. LOOKING FOR SHORTCUTS: This is the most basic point which is done by you. Basically, if you don't push you don't get, there is no free lunch, you have to work harder to get better result. For Example, if you do workout in gym then it is your Push and in return you get Fine Muscles, but if you take Supplements then it may be possible that in future your body may not be yours.
4. SELFISHNESS AND GREED: Individuals that have a selfish attitude have no right to expect growth. Their attitude is just for themselves not for the society and not for the others. Greed always wants more. Needs can be fulfilled but greed cannot. Greed destroys relationships. Greed comes out of poor self-esteem.
So make your self-esteem a good one.
5. UNWILLINGNESS TO PLAN AND PREPARE: Most people spend more time planning a party or vacation than planning their lives.
Preparation
Confidence comes from preparation, which is nothing but planning and practicing. Winners put pressure on themselves. That is the pressure of preparing and not worrying about winning.
If we practice poorly, we play poorly; because we play as we practice
Planning
Planning comes from your mind. A good planning leads to good results. Even the government of the successful countries make plans for there goals to be achieve. Plan your study, goals etc.
6. FEELING NEGATIVE (Rationalizing): Winners may analyze but they never rationalize- that is a loser's game. Losers always have a book full of excuses to tell you why they could not. Here we are:

- I'm unlucky
- I'm born under the wrong stars.
- I'm too old.
- I'm not good looking.
7. LACK OF DISCIPLINE: Have you ever wondered why some people never reach to their place? Because they don't have discipline in their activities. They some times look into their books, they sometimes go for gym, they do everything but sometimes.
If you want to achieve something or want to make difference in your like then you have to do anything and everything in a disciplined manner and in its exact time.
