Targeted Success: Why Ordinary Paths Don’t Lead to Extraordinary Results

Have you ever looked around and wondered why some people just seem to be ahead, outperforming others, rising faster, or living a life that looks completely out of reach?

You might be working hard, whether in your job, your business, or building something from scratch, but still find yourself stuck while others move forward.

It’s a common thought:

“Why them, and not me?”

Some say it’s luck. Others say it’s fate, karma, privilege, or divine will. And perhaps they’re right, from their point of view.

But what if there’s another explanation?
One that gives you control.
One that explains not only why some succeed, but also how.

This is where the idea of Targeted Success comes in.

What Is Targeted Success?

Success isn’t a one-size-fits-all formula. It’s not always about following the same path others took. Real, lasting success is targeted. It’s personal. It’s built on the rare talents, insights, and skills that only you have, if you take the time to uncover them.

Let me break it down with an example.

Imagine a wealthy individual who came from nothing. They weren’t born into riches, didn’t win the lottery, and didn’t have extraordinary resources. What made the difference?

Most of us focus on their results, the wealth, the lifestyle, the freedom. But we miss the process. We don’t notice the targeted strategy that was applied, consciously or unconsciously, to turn a rare ability into a massive advantage.

That’s what targeted success is all about:

Leveraging your own unique strength or insight in a way that sets you apart.

And no, it doesn’t mean you have to follow the usual route.

Redefining What It Means to Be “Skilled”

Let’s take the example of being an artist.

You’ve probably been told that if you want to become a great artist, you need exceptional drawing skills. Years of practice. Mastery of technique.

But what if I told you, you can become a world, class artist without knowing how to draw?

Sounds ridiculous, right?

Yet, history is filled with people whose “scrappy” art, bold ideas, or unique visions inspired millions. They didn’t win because of technical perfection. They won because their art had meaning, influence, and originality. Their thinking made them artists, not just their skills.

That’s the power of targeting your unique edge. Even if you don’t fit the mold, you can create your own definition of excellence, and others will recognize it, even if they don’t understand how you did it.
