A True Killer of Success: Complacency

It is easy to feel that we have “arrived.” We may be financially secure, confident in ourselves and willing to “ride the horse” that brought us forward for the balance of time.

We become in essence “lazy” and stop doing the things that brought us success. We deflect responsibility, at times knowingly and at times unknowingly, until we transform from a personal “asset” to a visible “liability.”

Complacency kills growth, encouragement and determination. It can and will impact everything and everyone that might come into contact with its potentially lethal bite. Once its “venom” is flowing within the confines of an individual, mental and physical energy to engage is drained. The individual is then transformed and thus leisurely “feeds” in the environment until it is stripped of its resources.

Remember: complacency is not a friend. Complacency is an enemy out to make you its next unknowing victim.
