"The greatest discovery in history is that one can change his or her future by changing his attitude." - Oprah Winfrey
What is the most important aspect of understanding success or failure? This is a hint - it's not what you know. It is not the one you know. These may be helpful, but what is critical to your success is your attitude towards success. Simple and straightforward - your attitude towards success will affect everything you do. This is not some crazy witchcraft, though... it is the basic psychology of human beings.
The way you see success is also the way you look at yourself at a very deep level. These beliefs you hold about yourself can give you incredible success, or they can put you in a terrible failure. Good news... you can choose!
"Just like a master musician may sing the most beautiful music from the strings of the violin, you may evoke the genius who sleeps in your head and let it push up any target you want. " - Napoleon Hill, from Think and Grow Rich
Think about how you understand yourself. What is your goal? What are your abilities. When you answer the question "Who am I?", what you listed, each of these beliefs literally defines our identity. When our minds use these beliefs to define our identity, on one level we also defend what we need to be "successful," but we define this success.
Before you start a project, you will think of your expectations for income. If you have told yourself that you will fail... you better not start this project until you change your mind. If you have unshakable expectations for success... Congratulations, this is only a matter of time before you figure out how you will succeed.
In psychology, this is called "self-fulfilling prophecy." You make a decision before you start the results, so all your energy is focused on getting results. This means... If you focus on failure, that is what you get.
The good news is that it is possible to build a strong desire for success within yourself, so powerful that it will attract you magnetically! By establishing this desire within yourself, you can literally "predict" your success and it will come true.
How do you build this unstoppable confidence? This is a big problem... more about the future.
