4 Major Attitudes We Must Cultivate To Be Successful (BIY Series #2) by EyitayoBoSs(m): 7:01am On Sep 18, 2017
Our attitude is a major key to opening doors to a successful life. What you say is just 5% of what people actually listen to, the rest of what they listen to is your attitude.
Ralph Waldo Emerson said 'what you do thunders so loudly in my ears, I can't heat what you say'. haven't you noticed that when someone appears calm, focused, bold, we tend to listen to them more than the ones that distract us with all their aggressiveness?
Thomas J Stanley PhD and William D Danko, after about twenty years of studying millionaires across a wide spectrum of industries concluded that, 'the character of the business owner is more important in predicting his level of success than the classification of business'.
Four key attitudes you should develop to be successful are;

1) BE OPTIMISTIC
Martin Seligman did a research and discovered that optimistic people are more successful than similarly talented people with pessimistic attitude. he got to that conclusion after doing some research at a major life insurance company and found that the salespersons who expected to succeed sold 37 percent more than those who didn't.

2) BE HAPPY
Albert Schweitzer said 'success is not the key to happiness, happiness is the key to success.' The happy man succeed where the sad man fails.

3) BE COURAGEOUS
Successful people understand that being courageous always assisted the to the told, cowards almost never get anywhere. Daniel Herzner said, 'when you have a can-do attitude you are giving yourself power and energy to accomplish anything.'

4) BE ACTION ORIENTED
Study after study have shown that the prominent character among people that are promoted faster and get paid more is that they are action oriented. Always be a man of action. Henry Bergson said, 'think like a man of action and act like a man of thought.
