Winning Attitude

How To Develop A Winning Attitude
What does it take in our everyday lives to be successful?
In order to evaluate this question it is first necessary to understand what "success" is and what all successful people have in common. It is probably safe to assume that anyone reading this article wants to be successful. However, only 5% of the population will ever reach their potential for all activities, 95% of the people will never truly be successful. By definition, success is the realization of a worthy deal.

Success is different for every individual. For some people, an annual income of $25,000 would be a success, for another it may be $125,000. Whatever it may be for you, there are 5 characteristics that you must have in common with other successful people in order to achieve true success.

Goals are the single most important factor in achieving success. Without a realistic goal, how will you ever know when you have reached your success level?

All successful people set goals. All goals must be realistic, short term, measurable and obtainable within the bounds of your own perception. As time passes, your goals can always be adjusted upward to reach your ultimate goal of success. However, if your initial goal is to be worth $1,000,000 by the year end and you are currently only worth $100,000 with an annual income of $50,000 a year and this is November, you most likely will never be able to reach it and therefore, it is unrealistic. Biting off a job in small portions makes the eventual achievement of the total task seem easier and manageable. All successful people constantly set goals, re-evaluate their goals and scale them upward toward even greater accomplishments.

A positive attitude is the second factor that successful people have in common. I have never met a truly successful person who I would consider a "self made" success that did not have a positive attitude. These people relate to the world on a positive basis. They always look for the "can do" not the "can not do" side of every situation. "If you think you can or if you think you can't, you're right." All successful people truly believe not only in themselves, but in the reality of their goals. A positive attitude is contagious and when it is sincere, the people with whom you come in contact will relate to you and your activities with a vitality and positive attitude that causes a winning, successful environment.

The truth is always best to deal with for several reasons, not the least important of which is that it is always the easiest to remember. If you are going to be successful, you will not have time, energy and ability to remember untruths, or lies that you have told people. This consumes valuable energy and detracts from the power needed to run a successful life. The truth is easy to remember and generally, in the long term, easier to deal with. True winners are always ready to face the truth in situations and handle things as they deal with them on a timely basis and then proceed to get on with the business of running a successful, prosperous life. Never having to back track to cover up problem areas.

Research and Development in today's society have become extremely important to all major corporations. This is where all new products and ideas evolve. Successful individuals have always understood this principal on a personal level and they constantly strive to improve their own abilities through such methods as formal educational systems, seminars, reading books, listening to ideas the thoughts of others, and in any manner that presents itself to them. Successful people truly believe they can improve themselves and constantly strive to seek methods and means that will help them accomplish this task. They also know that there is a price to pay for this success and the return on investment is sometimes great and sometimes small, but that the return without the investment is always the same "0".

"Thinking is the hardest work there is, which is the probable reason why so few engage in it." -Henry Ford

Man's ability over all other creatures on this Earth is the ability to think. All successful people use this talent to improve their lives and control their own destiny. Only you can take the initial step toward the unleashing of the power within your own mind. The power is awesome and at times can be frightening. However, man has abilities of the mind that many people can not or would not believe. Anthony Robbins has recently written a book entitled "Unlimited Power" which explains in simple terms the theories of Neuro Linguistic Programming, the power of the mind and how to gain control and use it. NLP was originally developed by John Grinder and Richard Bandler as a communication system using the central nervous system. Through this system Mr. Robbins has put forth a complete outline on how to unleash your "performance power" and achieve goals that before you probably felt were impossible.

The first step in using your true mental abilities is understanding what Mr. Robbins refers to as the seven triggering mechanisms that is sure success.

1. Passion - All truly successful people such as Lee Iacocca have a driving force within them that sets them apart from others. A desire, an energy that gives them the fuel to reach their true potential. This force is a part of them 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It never subsides. Their total existence is sustained for the fulfillment of their goals. The passion within this individual to achieve has been so deeply implanted, that their mental power is driven by this force and will not let them do anything other than achieve.


2. Belief - "They can because they think they can"-Virgil. You will only make $100,000 this year if you first believe you can. If you do not believe you can you are telling yourself you want it, but it is truly not obtainable. The truth of life is that man's limits are self imposed by what the mind is given to believe. If you expand your belief of your own abilities, you will also expand your true realm of accomplishment. A man of whom all are aware, lived his life with adversity, but he constantly believed he could achieve.

Was defeated in a legislative race at age 32

With all the adversity that faced him, President Abraham Lincoln had no reason to continually try other than the fact that he believed it was his destiny and measure of success to accomplish this task.

"Man is what he believes" -Anton Checkhov

3. Strategy - A strategy is your game plan of life. The road map you will use to accomplish your goals, ambitions and desires. Just to believe you can earn $100,000 a year is not enough, you must design a strategy that gives your life direction and navigates you toward success. The key to strategy is to design a proper strategy to achieve your success without the detours of life, to find the shortest distance between two points.


4. Clarity of Values - Man must first determine which things in life are most valuable to him. He must determine his feeling about such things as patriotism, pride, love, freedom, excellence, ownership and tolerance. These are values in society, the moral, ethical and fundamental judgements that we, as individuals, deem important. Without a clear system of values for ourselves, it is impossible to believe in something with a passion that has no value to us. Once we have established our individual value system we are then able to determine how we can achieve success based on our priority of values. What must we five up in one hand to accomplish what we desire on the other. Without a value system we can never move forward for we may be trading without increasing our potential for success.


5. Energy - Without the physical vitality to take action, nothing would ever come of our system to this point. The passion could build, our belief of accomplishment could be overwhelming, we could have the best strategy or map to achieve the ultimate value for our own life, but if not for taking the first step, nothing could ever be accomplished. Great success cannot be separated from physical, spiritual and mental energy that allows us, compels us, to accomplish the most with what we have to work with. Physical energy comes from the strength of the body itself fueled by our intake of nourishment. It is therefore important that we fuel our engine with premium fuel (good eating habits), not low grade regular (junk food). Our spiritual and intellectual energy evolves from our environment and it is therefore important that we assess our own personal environment to maximize the energy that we can obtain.


6. Bonding Power - We have all known people that have exhibited the ability to get along with anyone and everyone. The ability to be a chameleon is truly the ability to connect with and bond with others. The ability to build rapport. Being able to deal with others as Mr. Robbins says "To effectively communicate, we must realize that we are all different in the way we perceive the world and use this understanding as a guide to our communication with others." To be able to understand the...


7. Mastery of Communication - To take charge and run your own mind. To learn the techniques of NLP and no longer allow our mind to run our lives, but rather take charge of our own mental abilities and cause them to work for our own accomplishment of success.

"There is only one Success - to be able to

spend your life in your own way." -ChristopherMorley

CRITICAL SUCCESS FACTORS

CRITICAL SUCCESS FACTORS

Research has shown that about 40% of all businesses fold-up within the first year of starting. A staggering 80% of businesses fail within the first 5 years and of the remaining 20% that make it past the 5 year mark, over 80% of that 20% fail by the tenth year. In other words less than 10% of businesses that start up ever succeeds beyond 10 years.

Many people look at these statistics and say to themselves that with only a 10% chance of success, they are better off staying in their job for the rest of their life. It would be a lot safer. After all, they can never be smart enough or good enough to be in that small minority of 10%.

Firstly, I want to say that being among 10% of successful entrepreneurs is not only possible, it is very much achievable when you know how! You can be in the successful minority if you follow the critical SUCCESS FACTORS.

The reason most people fail in business is not because they lack a superior IQ. It is not because they lack luck or a special talent. The reason for all these failures is simply because they are making the same mistakes over and over again.

After starting so many businesses and consulting many business friends, I can tell you that success in business has nothing to do with your age, nothing to do with your level of education, little to do with how much capital you have and very little to do with luck.

It has to do with two main critical success factors that anybody can learn.

The critical success factors are entrepreneurial Mind Set and Entrepreneurial Skill Set.



ENTREPRENEURIAL MIND SET:

The first thing that sets successful entrepreneurs apart is their way of thinking (MINDSET). I have found that time and again, successful business owners think very differently from the rest of the crowd. When employees are given work to do, they see it as a problem. When an entrepreneur is given more work to do, he sees it as an opportunity to learn and grow from it. When a person with the employee mindset is sent for training, they often see it as a waste of time. The successful entrepreneur sees it as a valuable investment. When more people look at something challenging, they think of all the reasons why it cannot be done and avoid it.

Our mind set is the most important key to our success as a business owner. In fact, I would say that your ability to succeed in business is 70% psychology and 30% strategy. Your mindset affects your thoughts, which affects your behavior & actions and these ultimately affect the results you produce.

HERE ARE 3 ESSENTIAL MINDSETS OF A MILLIONAIRE ENTREPRENEUR:

MINDSET 1. Taking 100% responsibility & ownership.
MINDSET 2. Failure leads to success.
MINDSET 3. Constant and never ending INNOVATION.

100% RESPONSIBILITY & OWNERSHIP

100% RESPONSIBILITY & OWNERSHIP

Whenever I ask most business owners why their business is not as successful as it can be,

I usually get these responses:
1. I can’t find good people.
2. There are too many competitions.
3. The economy is soft.
4. The industry is tough
5. people are just not spending
6. I don’t have enough capital
7. if only I had more money things would be different
8. My partner is the problem
9. I have been down on my luck
10. I just don’t have the time to focus on marketing
11. I don’t have enough experience
12. I am too young or I am too old.

The problem with all these above reasons is that they are all aimed at blaming something or someone else. The majority of people with the above mindset tend to give themselves a lot of excuses and blame everything and everyone, except themselves, when things go wrong.

They blame the economy, the government, competition, bad luck, lousy staff, disloyal and difficult customers for their lack of success.

People with this VICTIM mindset will NEVER SUCCEED IN BUSINESS.

Successful entrepreneur mindset will never allow circumstance to control their fate. They have faced all the reason mention above. Success was in their thoughts and actions allowed them to retain the power to change their environment and their results.

Millionaire business owners believe that if there is something wrong with their business it is only because there is something they are doing or not doing in the right way. They believe and have 100% control over their business success and profit.
TAKING RESPONSIBILITY GIVE YOU POWER AND CONTROL

So, are millionaire entrepreneurs successful because everything is going their way? Are successful business owners found only in booming economies, industries and rich countries? Do all successful business owners start off with lots of capital? Rae they blessed with the most motivated and hard working staff? Are they gifted with special luck? We know the answer is a resounding “NO”. In fact, many of the successful and enduring entrepreneurs in the world started off in the worst times and with all the odds stacked against them.

When SOICHIRO HONDA started his company (HONDA) after world war 11, Japan was facing an oil crisis and twice the Americans bombed his factory. A few years later his factory was destroyed for the 3rd time by an earth quake.

When FRED SMITH started FEDERAL EXPRESS (FEDEX) his planes were almost repossessed twice by the Finance Companies because he didn’t have the money to pay the installment.

When RICHARD BRANDON wanted to go into the airline business, everyone told him that the industry was tough and that most carriers were losing money. And yet VIRGIN Airlines became highly profitable and took market share away from the market leader BRITISH AIRWAYS.

IF THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE BUSINESS THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE OWNER!

They believe that if they have challenges with their customers, it’s because they don’t understand customer relationship management. If they have a problem with sales, it’s because they don’t understand marketing. If they have money problems it’s because they don’t understand finance.Similarly, if they have operational problems, it’s because you don’t understand operations.If you have employee problem it’s because you are not doing the right thing in their recruitment, training and retention.

By taking 100% responsibility over your results you are acknowledging that you are creating it, either directly or indirectly. People with this leaders’ mindset believe that “FOR THINGS TO CHANGE,I MUST CHANGE FIRST”.

FAILURE LEADS TO SUCCESS

FAILURE LEADS TO SUCCESS

Once you have the first mindset of taking 100% responsibility and ownership, the second mindset you must possess, is the attitude to manage failure, setbacks and massive frustrations. What stops most people from starting a new business, innovating a new product or entering a new market is the fear of failure. This set back is what kills most entrepreneurs. In the world of business, lessons do not come in text books (like in school). But they come in the form of failures. By failing is something, we know that what doesn’t work. And yet, experiencing failure, frustration and set back is all part and parcel of being an entrepreneur. In the process of building any successful business, you will go through times of failure, rejection and intense frustration. Things rarely go according to plan or work out the way you would expect them to.

All successful entrepreneurs have the ability to stay calm, optimistic and confident. I believe that before we can succeed in anything, we have to first learn to fail, make mistakes and deal with setbacks.

Success never takes a straight line. If you study the paths off all successful entrepreneurs, you would see that all of us had to go through many set backs before ultimately achieving our dreams.


* While building DISNEY, WALTDISNEY went through near bankruptcy 12 times in the country’s history before establishing it as the largest and most successful entertainment company in history.

* DONALD TRUMP also went through near bankruptcy twice in his career as a real, estate builder before achieving world wide fame.

* LIM TOW YONG, founder of EMPORIUM was declared a bankruptcy at the age of 72 with debts in millions. He later started a new company and made back all fortune at the ripe old age of 82.

* When SIM WONG HOO started CREATIVE TECHNOLOGIES, his first product, the CUBIC 99 was a huge failure. It was after multiple product failure that his company went to the billion dollar league.


* Nine years after STEVE JOBS started and successfully built APPLE COMPUTERS, he was fired from his own company by the very CEO he appointed. To make things worse, the following company he started (next computers) also went down in flames.

It is only after a string of major set backs that STEVE JOBS built PIXAR (the most successful animation studio in the world) and brought APPLE back
From the verge of bankruptcy onto become one of the most successful technology companies in the world.

After all, success comes from exercising good judgment. Good judgment comes from experience and experience often comes from making bad judgment and paying the price.

Of course there are always things we can do to minimize these failures. The trick is to learn from other people’s experiences and other people’s mistakes. This is why it is so important to read biographies of successful business owners in order to gain the insights they have gotten after years of trial and error. However, no matter what lessons you learn from books and mentors, the greatest lesson you will learn will come from the “UNIVERSITY OF LIFE” THERE ARE NO FAILURES. THERE ARE ONLY LEARNING EXPERIENCES.

Recession vs Mindpower

This story is about a man who once upon a time was selling Hotdogs by the roadside. He was illiterate, so he never read newspapers. He was hard of hearing, so he never listened to the radio. His eyes were weak, so he never watched television. But enthusiastically, he sold lots of hotdogs. He was smart enough to offer some attractive schemes to increase his sales. His sales and profit went up. He ordered more a more raw material and buns and sold more. He recruited more supporting staff to serve more customers. He started offering home deliveries. Eventually he got himself a bigger and better stove. As his business was growing, the son, who had recently graduated from college, joined his father. Then something strange happened. The son asked, "Dad, aren't you aware of the great recession that is coming our way?" The father replied, "No, but tell me about it." The son said, "The international situation is terrible. The domestic situation is even worse. We should be prepared for the coming bad times." The man thought that since his son had been to college, read the papers, listened to the radio and watched TV. He ought to know and his advice should not be taken lightly. So the next day onwards, the father cut down the his raw material order and buns, took down the colorful signboard, removed all the special schemes he was offering to the customers and was no longer as enthusiastic. He reduced his staff strength by giving layoffs. Very soon, fewer and fewer people bothered to stop at his Hotdog stand. And his sales started coming down rapidly and so did the profit. The father said to his son, "Son, you were right". "We are in the middle of a recession and crisis. I am glad you warned me ahead of time." Moral of the Story: It's all in your MIND! And we actually FUEL this recession much more than we think.

5 Master Qualities of Extraordinary Achievers !!

5 Master Qualities of Extraordinary Achievers !!

You can be a master achiever by developing the same qualities of those who seem to achieve more than others. Here are 5 qualities you need to master in order to become a successful person in your chosen field and in your life.
Achievers are creative
Creativity is a fundamental quality of a visionary leader. Creativity is also essential for problem-solving, conflict resolution, crisis and change management.

As they are extensively goal and result oriented, achievers need to come up with many solutions to reach their goals; therefore they need to be more creative than others. An effective method for you to be more creative in problem resolution is:

First, sit down in a comfortable chair and think about all the ways to resolve the problem, even if it may be absurd. This is not the time to be critical, but the time to think without any judgment. Come up with at least 20 solutions.

The first eight solutions will be obvious; the second eight solutions will require some effort and therefore creativity. You will see that the last two solutions will be the hardest to find, but the most creative. And they will surely be the ones that you will stick to.

Second, act out in your head the movie of how you would implement each solution. And third, be critical as far as each solution is concerned. This is an effective way to resolve problems used by effective leaders and managers.
Develop the Habit of Courage
They have developed the habit of courage. Courage to wake up earlier and go to bed later. They've developed self-discipline. Self-discipline is astering yourself, your actions, thinking and emotions. They know that in order to become leaders for others, they need to become a leader for themselves first.
It takes courage to have self-discipline but it is learnable. They take action even if it is uncomfortable. They go out of their comfort zone, and go for opportunities. Talk about courage!

An effective method to develop the habit of courage is to see opportunities to grow and evolve in every challenge you face. Face your fears and learn from them. There is always a positive intention behind every fear you feel.
Top People are committed to contribute
Finally, they take action. High achievers are result and action-oriented. They are committed to action. As they make precise plan for what they really want, they go for it and are committed to reach the goal. An effective way for you to be committed to action is to set goals. Work every day on these plans and evaluate very week where you are.
Continuous Learning
High achievers are lifelong learners who subscribe to the process of continuous improvement. They view mistakes as learning opportunities. "There is no failure, only feedback" is always their motto. They know they need to improve, take risks, make mistakes and view these mistakes as opportunities to bounce back.

An effective way for you to develop this habit is to first, read each day a book in your chosen field. Second, listen to educational audiotapes in your car and go to seminars given by experts in your field. By doing that, you will be ahead of your competitors and you will become more educated, therefore, you will earn more in your life.
They are Responsible
High achievers know that they are 100% responsible for what's happening to them. They don't blame anybody else. They look themselves in the mirror and say "You can do it, it's only up to you dude!" You have the ability to respond in every situation you find yourself. Your response is up to you.

Creativity, courage, commitment, learning and responsibility are at the heart of every great achievement. Success is not always easy. People may be in your way. You may face discouragement. Problems may appear. But by learning how to be responsible, you will find solutions that others won't think of. You will find the courage to change your life and commit to excellence.
