success

Most widely concept discussed now a day is success. What is success and what is the relationship between success & attitude?
Everyone wants to be successful but never try to understand how to achieve that. I have researched a lot to explore this concept and finally prepared a matrix. This matrix was formed and tested on the successful people who became entrepreneur and achieved whatever they desired. You will be surprised to know that success has some parameters but what we apply is different from those and that’s why we face failure. Today our society is concerned about knowledge and believes that books can best be able to attain the same and so go for bookish knowledge. But there are many examples of successful people like Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, and Mark Zuckunberg etc. who have rouse above books and achieved their goal successfully.
Also on the basis of my interaction with thousands of people whom I interviewed I have found that knowledge occupies only 5% role in attaining success. After that I found that skill development that is considered need of the hour also occupies 5% role in attaining success. We know discipline plays a vital role right from the school & college levels and it bears only 10% of contribution in attaining success.
You will be surprised to know that 40% of role in success is played by attitude i.e. the way we perceive things. And the rest of 40% is counted for one’s enthusiasm and ambitiousness. That means it deals with questions like are we really enjoying our profession or just doing a formality.
Till now we have been focusing only the first 20% qualities but never thought of positive attitude & enthusiasm. Is attitude really an important aspect?
If you have right kind of attitude and you don’t have ample amount of knowledge then you can acquire it and also your disciplined can be developed.
How can we acquire positive attitude, even if we lack knowledge, skill and discipline and also how positive attitude can help in attaining the three? What is the basic process?
We are lucky that god blessed us with human life otherwise we could have been a crocodile or a tree etc. so therefore we should be thankful to this universe, energy and god which were the reason of our creation. The feeling of thanklessness has increased in us.
First of all we should start showing gratitude and conveying thanks to all for everything then universe will return all things that we have ever wanted.
Still after exams we are always scared and worried because of numerous questions like whether we will pass or not, if yes how much will we score and how are parents, society etc. will react. How can we overcome such fears?
We don’t have to overcome fear, we have to enhance positivity and that can be done with regularly using a single word wholeheartedly i.e. “Thank you “, which is called “Arigato” in Japanese. It is such a beautiful word but we have seen that those who use this word less have generated more negative energy. All things are taken away from us for which our attitude have become negative and have stopped valuing them no matter if it is health, relationships, job, money, career or business, in short everything starts declining.
If we become thankful for everything and start saying thank you, will it affect our growth?
There is no direct relationship between gratitude and satisfaction. If we feel gratitude and say thank you to somebody it will enhance our energy and we will work more efficiently. By saying thank you never means that we are getting satisfaction. If we actually feel good for our profession, feel thankful to our employer, we will really enjoy our work but if we don’t we will lack positive attitude towards employers, relationships and everything in life.
I request all such young people who have adopted negativity in life and relationship, taken lots of stress during exams, just for one time try to adopt positivity in life and the tips of success in which we have stated that you have to adopt one word and not like the way we crammed our nursery rhymes like “Jack & Jill went up the hill” without understanding its real meaning. The need is to feel it, if we will feel gratitude from heart then only it is useful and ultimately will generate the desired result.
As enthusiasm and positive attitude covers 40% each, how can we apply them in life?
First of all I would like to state that this one word is very effective and can change our life up to 〖360〗^0 and hence it must not be taken for granted. It is very important that one must know how to say “thank you” in a right way, as explained below:
Always make eye contact with the person to whom you are saying thank you, so that your honesty & genuineness will be communicated to that person.
Have to say “Thank you” three times for each favor.
Give reason for saying “Thank you”. For example I thank my pen as it helped me to do my work in the office. My mother helped me to achieve what I desired for, so I’m thankful to her also.
Also one should say thank you before and after taking a favor.
Therefore, when one apply all these rules one will become beautiful, satisfied and will definitely attain success.
