It is my pleasure to share with you today some vital positive attitudes of successful living. Success is essential to the survival and significance of any human being, but as good as it is, it will not be achieved at the platter of gold. Too many people are looking at the wrong place when they encounter failure or momentary difficulty. They blame their pastor, friends, wife, husband, brother, neighbors, sisters, witches, and the devil, when in the real sense they are the major enemy standing against their own success. There are attitude every success minded individual should imbibe. Here, I am going to talk briefly on ten vital positive attitudes of successful living. These attitudes are not developed easily, but it is something that is worthwhile. Anyone who has them in abundance shall surely be successful, but he that lacks them walks a frustrating lane. These attitudes are as follows.
1. Honesty: Success requires sincerity. In whatsoever you do try to be honest. Dishonesty will may give you some money at the moment, but it will rub you of true friendship and ultimately in the future. And this will happen when you truly need the helping hand of those whom you have cheated in the past.
2. Open Mindedness: You need to maintain an open mind if you truly desire to succeed. You do not know everything; therefore do not play Mr. Know-it-all. Listen to others as they share with you. Any man who believes only in what he knows shall be grossly limited in life, and any man who thinks he does not need the counsel of others shall utterly be destroyed without remedy.
3. Trust: You need to demonstrate some level of trust in those whom you maintain cordial contact. When you trust them to do what they need to do in the right way, you will become duplicated to function appropriately at your optimal best. The more we can be trusted in what we have the more we can be entrusted.
4. Genuineness: He who has resolved to succeed cannot afford the luxury of being fake. Let people know you for who you are, and also for what you stand for. You need to be real in everything you do; wherever you are to everybody you come in contact with. In so doing, you will be able to maintain an indisputable disposition to quality lifestyle.
5. Curiosity: You must maintain an attitude of inquisitiveness. This will help you to see things in better perspective. And you will also be able to see the bigger picture that will guide the way you behave.
6. Readiness to learn: The day you stop to learn, that day you start to die. Every successful man is he who is always a student of some noble education. It does not matter the position you occupy in life, what you do not know is above you, and can plaque you in some way. Therefore, if you want to succeed you must take what is good in others, and add it to your own. When you add the good in others to the good in you, you inevitably make your life better. Irrespective of who has the knowledge, if you require it to move to the next level in life, you must humble your self to learn so that you can succeed.
7. Generosity: There is he that scatters library and yet increases, but there is he that withholds without a legitimate course and yet has nothing to show for all his years of hard labor.
8. Adventurous Ability: A coward dies many times before his death, but the brave die but once. Friend, success is not going to be delivered to you on the platter of gold; you have to contend for it. There are many things to deprive you from pursuing the object of your heart desire, you need to be brave else you never be able to succeed.
9. Majoring in Majors: 80% of what we do is just killing time. It is majoring in minus. If you can take the time out to find out those things that take your time, but produce no tangible evidence, making the required efforts to weed them out of your life, you will inevitably have more time to devote to those things that can actually help you to be intelligently fulfilled.
10. Unconditional love: You must love yourself, love others, love God and love what he has given you the talent to do.
Success is inherent in every one of us, but the number one thing that is standing between us and success is our attitude. You cannot expect to succeed if your attitude is inviting failure. If we can endeavor to put on the right mental attitude that is aligned with success we will discover that it was already there. These ten vital positive mental attitudes for successful living will help you to position your life to enjoy a better lifestyle.
Ask your self, ‘I am I displaying attitudes that are working for my success or that which is working against my successes?’ Your answer to this question will help you to apply your heart to wisdom, and when wisdom is in charge of your life, foolishness will have no choice but to leave. If you discover that your attitude is working against your success, take the necessary steps to begin a journey of self development and improvement. Make a daily commitment to practice these vital attitude for successful living, and your life will never remain the same. This will go a long way to make you a better person.
