“Winners don’t do different things, they do it differently” – Shiv Khera

There should be an action plan to achieve the goals. Under adverse conditions, some people break down, some break records. According to Shiv Khera If you think you can – you can, if you think you can’t – you can’t.

We should compete for wisdom and knowledge, not grades to win. The question is how to build a successful rewarding life. It’s the game of unlocking your potential for success. You have to decide new goals, develop a new sense of purpose and generate new ideas about yourself and your future.

There are some common traits of people who fall into category of successful. Because of these behaviors they fall into different category. The key elements of successful people are:

Attitude:

Have you ever thought why some people or organizations are more successful than others?

Successful people believe that if the attitude is right, then they are better team players. People can alter their attitude that is the big philosophy. Changing a persona requires lot of character analysis. Our attitude determines how we look at setback. To a positive thinker it can be stepping stone to success or to a negative thinker it can be stumbling block.

Most of our attitude is shaped during our formative years. There are certain factors that mold the character and personality.

Benefits of positive attitude are that it increases the productivity, improves the quality, fosters better relationships with employers and increases profit.

Success:

To some people success means wealth, to some people it is recognition, good healthy body, prosperous family, happiness, friends and satisfaction and peace of mind. In order to get the winning edge, we need to strive excellence not perfection. Striving for perfection is neurotic, striving for excellence is progress.

Nothing worthwhile in life carries without a struggle. People who overcome obstacles are more secure than those who have never faced them. Successful people compete against themselves. Success is not measured by how high we grow in life but by how many times we bounce back when we fall down. The main characteristics of winners are:

  • Desire
  • Commitment,
  • Responsibility
  • Hard work
  • Character
  • Positive Believing
  • The Power of persistence

Motivation:

Your internal motivation is your drive and attitude. Motivation can be internal and external. External motivation comes from outside such as money, societal approval, fame or fear. Some of the motivators are getting recognition, getting respect, make work more interesting. The best part is some people challenge themselves, they are at times self driven and want to enhance their personality for right decision making and proper approach. They are more inclined towards winning attitude.

Self esteem is what we feel about ourselves. Our opinion about ourselves critically influences everything from our performance at work, our relationships and our role as a parent to our accomplishments in life. High self esteem is a major component in determining success or failure. People with high self esteem grow in conviction, competence and have willingness to accept responsibility. Successful people face life with optimism and are more courageous. They entertain the benefits of high self esteem.
