If you're a determined, career oriented professional, then I'm sure you've thought of this question once or twice before. How did you answer it?
Has your past accomplishments shown that you can be a success?
Earl Nightingale had discovered the following definition of success. This definition couldn't have been more right on.
--- "Success is the progressive realization of a worthy goal." ---
It simply means, anyone working towards the accomplishment of a goal is a successful person.
It simply means, anyone working towards the accomplishment of a goal is a successful person.
You may or may not think of yourself as a success or one that hasn't been successful, but I assure you. You have been or still are successful.
Did you get that job you wanted? You are successful..
Did you buy that car you wanted? You are successful..
Did you buy your home? You are successful...
You see, we are all successful, but most tend to concentrate on their failures instead. Failures are good, but they are to be treated as learning experiences, that's it! Whatever you learned from your failure, you make sure not do it again.
Some tend to think that success is determined by how much you money make. This is not the case and based on the definition nowhere is it mentioned about money. Well, money is important, but that's a goal in itself. Isn't it?
So, what can you do to be more success-oriented?
Try the following approaches:
Acknowledge when you are successful. - When you find yourself meeting a goal, stand up and declare, "I am successful." You don't necessarily have to use those words, but what is important is that you reward yourself with something very simple as a thought or a tangible item.
Detach from your failure mentality. - When you find yourself meeting failure head on, stand up and declare that, "I'm grateful to have discovered that this is not working, but I will not result to failure. I am successful." Break this cycle of failure by interrupting what has happened and turn it into something you've learned from it.
These approaches, as corny as they might sound will get you on the fast track of constantly thinking like a successful individual.
If you think you're not successful, YOUR WRONG!
