Successful Mind, Successful Self

“There were no more worlds to conquer”- wept Alexander the Great after his army conquered much of the earth. He had a successful mind and became a successful person. You can have similar success, but first you must want it inside before it can become a reality.

Are you unmotivated, exhausted, and too spent to achieve any more? This is a good problem. Why? Because at last you have distinguished yourself from the rest – you know your downfalls and that is the first step in order to be able to correct them. If you keep your mind free, it will make you to feel happiness and success will follow immediately.

Then you may ask how to make your mind free. It is universal truth that shadows will fall behind you once you keep your face to the sun. So if you face the problem with confidence, you may reap the benefits of success.

Just call your friend and ask him to look at a glass that is half filled with water. Ask him to critique it. A successful optimist may answer it is half-full or as a pessimist would probably answer that it is half empty. The sad part is that the pessimist does not have the right mind set to be a huge success. Despite the simple explanation of a pessimist and an optimist, we do have a lot of choices we can make. However, most of us choose to look at things from a negative light and always see the dark side of situations. If we choose to look at the positive side of things, like the water glass being half full, we are more likely to find the good in things and lead a happy, successful life with flying colors.

Try to follow this simple three step positive thinking formula to help you achieve success.

Regardless of the situation you must:
1. Analyze the situation coolly. Turn it outside in, downside up, and upside down.
2. Realize that it could always have been worse. Unearth why and how it could have been worse.
3. Find the good in it and grab it. The good side may appear to you in a flash or gradually. It all depends on the outcome of steps 1 and 2.

Try this three-step mental attitude fix to help turn your mind to that of a successful thinker. Very soon you’ll begin to look at people and things in a new light and see how you can make the most of any situation. The more success you emanate from yourself, the more successful you’ll become. Once you’ve developed a successful mind, you’ll definitely become a successful self.
