Success in various fronts of social as well as professional life is definite for the people who posses an inherent quality of energizing their thoughts with positivity. They are classified as the people with positive mind frame who do not get provoked and indulged in any sort of mental block. They are like any other human beings. The only difference is that they avoid blaming their luck for their failures and do not concentrate much on their weaknesses. They consider failures as stepping stones to success.
This is one side of the coin. The other side is also prevalent. There are people who always discuss the mistakes committed by them in the past, murmur, curse the environment and situations for their failures. Such attitude expels positivity from their minds which in turn brings abundant failures to them.
Always remember that you can be better than what you are. You have to have full trust in your ability and intelligence. Your body is like a highly acclaimed machine and your brain a critical asset. You can definitely accept the challenges of the surroundings with this combination. To make these all happen, the attitude, a very important factor and a significant personality trait needs to get increased. It is the attitude that helps you to think in a positive way and the same can create a magic in your life. As per Winston Churchill, “An attitude is a small ingredient, but makes a lot of difference in one’s life.”
Provoking Power of Thoughts:
Any action is a reflection of thoughts and the thoughts are directed by a positive or a negative approach. You can become a successful person, if you are influenced to induce your thoughts. The results of researches show that the working patterns of your body and your thoughts are interconnected with each other. If you are endowed with a positive frame of mind, you will be able to lift your spirit. Contrarily, if your mind is always hovered with the negative thoughts, you would surely encounter the failures. In my professional life, I come across different types of personalities and I have the privilege to segregate an intellectual lot having haughty nature and ample money and the lot other having less materialistic strength with tremendous positive attitude. And relying upon my knowledge, I opine that the second lot makes history and always smiles in their lives beatifically.
Take the instance of the environment of your office where all your activities are governed by your mind. Gravity of your acts makes you judge the level of your performance and the performance gets accelerated when the acts are influenced by positive attitude. You are able to produce the output beyond the expected level with the help of a constructive behaviour and the consequence will always be positive.
The success is never a result of feeble efforts. A structured and continuous process of development of various skills and knowledge bestowed with positive thoughts, guarantees right thing to happen. So, to exuberate in life, fill your mind with positive, productive and sensible thoughts. This will bring a noticeable difference in your attitude towards life.
Soul searching:
Many times, you feel less enthusiastic and ponder into anxieties due to different perceptions which may or may not have relationship with your career, social life or materialistic despondency. But such behaviour is quite radical. Though your brilliance is doubtlessly unquestionable, the negative thoughts may crop up in your mind just because of the above type of mindset of yours. Negative thoughts as stated above, will destroy your inner energy i.e. positivity and throw you in the shackles of despair. Nothing is easily achievable unless you toil hard and earn others support, assistance, co-operation and good wishes.
This is just a guide line. But to energize your inner self with the power of positive thoughts, you have to continuously introspect till the time; you recognize its importance.
Build up yourself:
A normal person of average calibre, possessing several abilities conforming to the prevailing standards, may require investing his overall growth. To survive in the corporate jungle, you have to continuously upgrade your skills, knowledge and maintain the eagerness. Always concentrate on the jobs you like the most and the jobs you know more about it. This keenness will only bring more colours to your life and will help your career graph to ascend.
Plan, follow and improve:
If your planning is perfect and accurate, you will have a success of abundance with extraordinary results. You have to immensely master the techniques and skills required for the job you are involved into. Planning is very important and if it is foolproof, the results cannot be haywire. A person who does not recognize the importance of planning, cannot reach the desired destination. Here comes the perspective of attitude. Without right attitude, it is extremely difficult to grab success in life. The success is like a war which is full of mirth and despondency. If you rush with strong and calculated planning supported by a scientific approach, no one can prevent you by reaching the success.
It is very essential to concentrate on the strength instead of weakness. No one should mourn about what they do not have; rather an approach is to be laid on what he owns. Celebrities, all round the world, never give importance to their limitations. Their attitudinal behaviour always guides them to positive thinking. And this character alone remains benevolent to lead them to success in their lives. Always maintain an attitude of constantly upgrading yourself with the latest developments coming up all around. By indulging into self development, you will be in a position to improve upon your performance in any field. Also remember that as soon as you are complacent, your development graph will start travelling downward.
Attitude: can be defined as follows:
positive.
You have to remember that your attitude as well as the viewpoint of others for you, affect the routine business of the people connected with you in the professional and social life. Your attitude proves to be one of the major success fetching elements in today’s competitive working environment where you have to work as a team. It is tricky for you to overcome the obstacles coming on your way, if you do not own a balanced attitude. Thoughts should be sensitized and strengthened with vision to eradicate negativity from your behaviour. By practicing this hypothesis, mind will be energized gradually to pursue the positive aspects. This will, at a later stage, become a habit and get transformed into a natural element of your attitude.
Attitudinal behaviour and its impact on career:
Attitudinal behaviour plays a very important role at the start of your professional career. When you appear for an interview, interviewers notice your attitudinal behaviour very subtly because they know that they can train and twist you talents to suit their job requirements but can’t change your attitude to make it adaptable to the work environment.
You can conquer the obstacles, if you have a positive attitude which emphasize on the brighter aspect of your life.
In my long professional career as a marketing man and as a departmental head, I have been always encouraging on coaching my people and bringing the best out of them. I have noticed that a person having positive attitude and “can do” approach can achieve success even if he is weak in some areas. On the contrary, a person though very brilliant suffers a lot because of his negative attitude. In today’s arena of global competition, companies always in search for the right people who can show immense power of positive attitude in all spheres.
Mostly, all the companies are now conducting psychometric analytical tests to measure the candidates’ attitude and thereby to identify their potentialities for success. You have to be the master of your mind and not a slave. By doing this, you will be able to control your mind and will be in a position to always concentrate on positive things around you.
Keep away from negative:
Life is full of mysteries of successes and failures. Everyone has to face this naked truth. Failures quiver a person’s confidence and develop a negative outlook in him which further worsens the situation when everything starts seeming gloomy to him. A famous couplet of “Genesis” in the Bible says that during the creation of the universe, the first thing, God said was “Let there be a light”, as the total universe was under the clutch of darkness. God never said, “Let there be darkness.” In our day to day life, we happen to come across the situations which present dismal pictures before us. If you are calm and quiet, and can maintain a positive frame of mind even in the situation of adversity of life, positivity will grow and enable you to always see only the brighter part of life. I would like to put forward a classic example of positive attitude which many of us know very well. Mr. Iswarchandra Vidyasagar, the eminent scholar, was one day summoned by his mother. When he reached the river Damodar in the late evening, he, because of heavy flood, could not find any boat to reach other side. Since, he had made up his mind to meet her mother by hook or crook, overlooked the fanatic situation of river, swam the river, reached home late night and touched her mother’s feet. What a positive attitude he showed! This example glorifies the significance of struggling against all darkness and negativities of life.
Attitude V/s Success:
Attitude and success, both are hand in gloves. Success is directly proportioned to positive attitude. You can never dream success without positive attitude. “Can do” attitude only can transform your actions into reality. Please keep in mind that there is no shortcut to success; real success is always a long route. Mind boggling efforts, pain-staking work, eradication of negative thoughts and tremendous perseverance are the nuts and bolts to achieve success. In a journey to success, you will come across many circumstantial hurdles like resource crunch, negative criticism, discouragement, etc.; but you need to keep all your positive thoughts intact to sustain the motivation which helps you perform your best.
There is no magic to reach success. Your whole hearted efforts with brimming confidence bring you success. If you engage yourself in any undertaking, intensify your potentialities and concentrate all your attention on the task undertaken with a constructive approach, you will find your missions completed.
As a marketing coach in my present employment, I impart training to young engineers to help them mould their career. I profusely teach them the fact that they must develop the right attitude to master the fundamental principles of product development and marketing operations. During the initial six months of their probation period, I make them understand the significance of positive attitude, in absence of which, they may face enormous problems ahead.
Further, many people believe that positive attitude is an inherent element and it is a domain of some particular group of people. But it is not correct. Even, if you are an average qualified person having a mediocre brain, you can learn and practice the positive attitude. To drive your thought process in a positive direction, you need not be highly qualified or should have an extraordinary brain power. It is only a matter of consciousness that how you shut the doors of your mind to block negative thoughts. This is the main and important quality which needs to get sharpened for becoming a positive person. It is true that negative thoughts cannot be completely vanished but they can be, of course, minimized by increasing the layers after layers of positive thoughts and then it will automatically become a habit of your usual life at a later stage. Once you are habituated to discharge your duties with positive thoughts, the influence of negative thoughts will become insignificant.
Finally, there are galore of examples of eminent personalities. A few are Nawab of Pataudi, Ten Zing Norgay, etc. Pataudi, despite his one eye, with shear grit and determination, he established himself as one of the greatest cricketers in the world. Same is the case with Norgay. He conquered the invincible Mount Everest with a tremendous attitudinal power.
So, think positive, act positive, and no doubt, the outcome will definitely be positive.
