Principle of Success 7: Cultivating A Positive Mental Attitude
Your mindset is the only thing you have complete control of. A positive mental attitude attracts opportunities for success.
Principle of Success 8: Acting With Enthusiasm
Our passion and our burning desire to succeed is more powerful than all logic. Enthusiasm comes from within to intensify our faith and motivate us to massive action toward success.
*Would your prospects and clients describe you as enthusiastic?
*What do you do when you're NOT feeling enthusiastic? Are you controlled by your 'being in a rut' or do you have a strategy to get back in the saddle?
*People will forget what you said but remember how you made or make them FEEL. Be fascinated and enthusiastic about who you're speaking to, who you're helping. Keep the mindset of being of service and enthusiasm will come naturally.
Principle of Success 9: Practicing Self-Discipline
Self-mastery is essential to success. Self-discipline is enforced by controlling your thoughts and your actions, thus balancing our outcome.
*30 minute rule for all volatile or potentially volatile situations. Your first reaction may not always be the best.
*Operate from fact, not from fiction. Don't make up what 'must be happening' in your head. Get the truth first.
*Write down what you think is right to say, reread it and edit, delete or use. This is especially critical with texting and emailing.
"Opportunity often comes disguised in the form of misfortune or temporary defeat." - Napoleon Hill
