People with negative attitudes may wonder why they never achieve the degree of success they desire. It is a fact of life that if you want to succeed, you must be optimistic. Your attitude determines your future. If you don't think anything is going to work for you, you won't put forth the effort needed for success. Your subconscious mind creates what you believe, so convince it that you believe in your success.
You are going to live with yourself for the rest of your life. You need to make it as pleasant as possible by having a positive attitude. Even if your project goes bottoms up, at least you can have a good attitude about it, and try again. Negative attitudes will only make you miserable. You could mope around feeling sorry for your self because you are going to die sometime, or you can live until you die. People die when they have given up on life.
You can worry about your physical ailments or you can rejoice about your body parts that are in good working order. You can imagine everything that could go wrong with your projects or you can feel what it is going to be like when you are a roaring success. It's all about how you approach life. Negative attitudes create much more stress than positive ones. It's better for your health to be optimistic.
We usually sell our selves short. Most people have an inferiority complex. We imagine that others are better than we are. When we realize this, we can see that we are as good as the others. Thinking yourself, small will not take you anywhere but down.
Everyone has a sinking feeling occasionally. Resist the urge to become discouraged. It's apparently just a warning for us to check the flaws in our system. Fear is a good thing if we learn how to handle it and not let it crush us. If you fear you don't have it right, double check and make sure it is right. If we had no fear, we might be overconfident and overlook our weaknesses.
Take stock of your assets. Everyone has talents. Find and develop yours and believe in yourself. Develop a plan for your career and stick to it no matter what. Get the best education that you can afford. Hang around with upbeat successful people. It will rub off. You tend to develop the attitude of those you spend time with, so avoid the down and out's Spend time with those that encourage you and avoid the pessimists. Find a mentor that will show you what you are doing wrong, and tell you when you have it right.
Give it your best, even if you are failing. Learn from your mistakes and try again. Those that habitually fail, usually keep making the same mistakes. A failed project just means that you need to make some adjustments, nothing more. Being successful is a cut and try process to see what works for you. Examine what you have done and make it better. When you do that over and over, you can become an expert and be a success. When you find what works, keep doing it. Keep up with the changes in your field and change with them. You will be rewarded for it.
You have to be positive if you are a Christian. Christianity is based on believing that God is making a difference in your life. He has promised to work out everything for the best. You have an ironclad guarantee that everything is going to turn our right. It may not be the way you had planned but it will be for the best, just believe it.
You get out of life what you put into it. Negative attitudes are obstacles to success. Blast through them by believing in yourself and forcing your attitude positive. Have a good plan and give it your best. You were created for success and you can achieve it.
