Achievers are not born– they are self made. And there are specific qualities that achievers share in common and which may account for their successes in life.
These include:
Positive thinking
For dreamers, nothing is impossible. The body can achieve what the mind can conceive and believe. There is no room for negativity in the mind of a dreamer because negativity is the killer of dreams. If you want to succeed, you must practise positive thinking and replace negative thoughts with better ones.
Imaginative
All things that are tangible started out as ideas and concepts in the mind. For instance, all tall buildings started out as images in the mind of the architect. Creativity is important because not all problems have clear cut solutions or there may be a better way to handle a situation. Achievers use their imagination to create solutions for problems or to discover better ways of reaching their goals.
Victory mentality
Achievers are still human with limitations like everyone else. They also experience failure in business and relationships as well as tragedies like abuse, rejection, divorce and injustice. Achievers, however, rise above their storms, refuse to turn bitter and become better regardless of their tragedies. Instead of wasting their time and energy by beating themselves about their misfortune, achievers turn their energies into productive activities, moving on from where they left off. Losers keep a victim mentality while winners bear a victory mentality.
Big thinking
Achievers understand that the mind is boundless and think in big terms. While the body can only grow so much, the mind does not carry such limitation. When you think big, you dream big. Conditioning your mind to think big eventually leads you to take steps to achieve that dream, no matter how huge it may seem. Aim high if you want to hit high.
