Success begins in mind

Are you living the life you would like to be living? Are you enjoying the good things of life that
you define as success? You hold the power to change the course of your life. You are in control
of what happens to you and it begins in your mind with the attitude you have toward life. If your
attitude is negative you will not live a life you love and success will elude you. When you begin
living life with a positive attitude your life will become the life you love living.

1. Think positive. Your thoughts are your most important factor in creating the life you live.
Discipline yourself to only allow positive thoughts to reside in your mind. Find ways to control
your thinking.

2. Speak positive. Your words reflect your thoughts. Control your words - speak only positive
words. Let your words reflect your new discipline - positive thinking.

3. Look for the good in others. As you focus on the positive qualities of others you begin to
enjoy those people more and your life becomes more positive. Learn to always look for the
things in other people that you admire. State those discoveries in your mind and to those people
you were thinking about.

4. Find something good to speak about. These words have been my guide in life: "Small minds
talk about people. Average minds speak about things. Great minds speak about ideas." Learn to
have a great mind by speaking of ideas, dreams, goals, plans, and the good things about life.

5. Do not worry. Worry steals the joy out of living. Worry is only borrowing trouble for
yourself. Become a problem solver instead of worrying about those problems.

6. Focus on the future. Don't stay stuck in the past. Focus on a bright future and think on how
much you will enjoy working towards and accomplishing your goals.

7. Gratitude. Learn to count the blessings in your life. Every day, find a minimum of 5 things
you are thankful for. As you focus on the good things in life and train your mind and your mouth
to be positive your life will take on new meaning and you will lead a life that is also positive.
