What is YOUR Success Attitude?

Last week we spoke about your Core Desire, YOUR true meaning in life or YOUR why. We referred to your Core Desire as a measurement of your genuine desire. It is the place that makes you happy with excitement beyond control. If money and time weren?t an object, it?s the 100 on the barometer that portrays family, society, health, finances, self image and your career as the very best they can possibly be! You are an exciting person to be around, filled with enthusiasm and never, never show mediocrity in anything you do.

You must learn how to make it happen. If you will learn how to focus on your genuine Core Desire, you will have the ability to achieve whatever it is that you have always wished to become or where you wish to live, what you wish to achieve or ????.you get the picture. There is absolutely nothing holding you back but you. You must achieve a ?Success Attitude? in life. You must attached yourself to a truth detector and begin to enjoy life again. I honestly believe that you can do anything, be anyone and accomplish anything you want if you have a genuine core desire at the level of 100.

In order to accomplish your core desire, you must learn to develop (or at least find) your old frame of mind to achieve whatever it is that you want. Once you find your core desire, your spirit will unleash your conquering force and your success attitude will help you to accomplish whatever you want because you will have the power to create opportunities to make it happen. Remember, I told you that you cannot fail, only quit. The only reason you will quit is because your core desire wasn?t truly at level 100.

So, what is your ?Success Attitude?? It is first your God given abilities to apply your desire and set yourself up in the right direction, add proper action and stir in persistence.

Direction is not only a pointing, but also a set of tools. For example; if I wanted to learn how to be a GREAT public speaker, I would use tools such as:

Mentors ? Ask specific questions on ?how?.
Books ? Read at least 1 book/year.
Tapes ? Study video and audios.
Seminars ? At least 4 times/year.
Attend Courses ? At least 1/year.

These direction tools will definitely help if you are smart enough to learn what someone else is willing to teach. I have not yet been turned down when I asked for help from a mentor. I will have to fit into his or her schedule, but they are truly tickled to help!

Proper action is important. Your mentor, the books, tapes, and trainings will show you the proper action. Many times you will have to step out of your comfort zone to obtain the proper action. Don?t let risks and fears stop you, don?t let them win! Do what you have learned. If a technique is not working, change it until something works. Go back to your mentor and ask more specific questions. Get help to shorten your learning curve. And always stretch for results that bring satisfaction and accomplishment.

Please don?t fall trap to the old clichй that visualization and affirmations will work and help you to achieve your core desire. They may work only if your core desire is at a level 100. But if your desires are at level 50, visualizations and affirmations are only degrading, depressing and spirit-breaking when they are not accomplished.

Persistence is the opposite of weakness. While we would all like to be persistent in every avenue of our lives, most people are weak and do the ?ol song and dance called ?woe me?. I am telling you that you MUST break the weakness shell wrapped around you and pull up your bootstraps and get ready to kick some persistence in the rear end. Are you getting my drift here? Get tough, get persistent! Keep going and hit the bull?s-eye. Your persistence will help you to find a way to get there, to achieve your core desire in life, health, happiness, family, friends, finances and career.

Let me ask you to write out a scale for me. On a piece of paper, draw a vertical line (on the left side). Along that line write #1 at the bottom, 50 in the middle and 100 at the top. Now draw a horizontal line starting at the #1 so we can diagram a graph. At the left edge of that line, write a #1 (standing for January 1) and at the right side write in the number 365 (depicting December 31). Now, think about this for a minute before answering. Think about your life over the past year, where is your ?Happy Attitude? in this graph. Before this past year, my graph was very average at about 30-50%. I wasn?t truly happy about much in life. I was struggling to make ends meet while attempting to be Mom & Dad to 2 strapping young men.

But I have to tell you that I found my core desire, added some direction, a truck load of proper action and a ton of persistence and we are carrying our Success Attitude straight to our new home in the Ozarks of Missouri! We are incredibly successful in our network marketing business and will be enjoying our lives to the fullest extent known to mankind before we will even know it.

?The starting point of all achievement is desire. Weak desires bring weak results just as small amounts of fire makes a small amount of heat.?

Desire! That?s the secret to every man?s career. Not education. Not being born with hidden talents. Desire!
