successful people
An important attribute about successful people is their impatience with negative thinking and negative people. As one grows, your associates will change and some of your friends will not want you to succeed. They will want you to be stagnant in life as they are. Friends that don’t help you climb will want you to crawl; your friends will stretch your vision or chock your dreams. Those that don’t increase you will eventually decrease you.
Consider these:
The difference between success and failure lies in the investment of time. To be successful, one should never receive counsel from unproductive people and never discuss your problems with someone incapable of contributing to the solution because those who never succeed themselves are mostly the first to tell you how.
Not everyone has a right to speak into your life; else, you will certainly get the worst of the bargain when you exchange ideas with the wrong persons. And finally, don’t follow anyone who is not going anywhere. It’s often said that “Direction is more important than speed, for many are going nowhere fast”. With some people, you spend an evening while with others, you invest it. So, be careful where you stop to enquire for directions along the road of life.
Successful people are generally goal oriented, they take responsibility, turn their fears into power, aim for excellence, transform their negativity into positivity, discover their hidden talent and visions earlier, develop themselves, expect the unexpected, and don’t procrastinate, because they know that the secret of getting things done is by doing it now. Hence, success is waiting for that person who plans for it and reaches out, and successful people know this and work towards it.
