Achieving Success Through AttitudeWritten by Debra Gravelle
I want to discuss with you something that is seldom mentioned about success on internet and what it requires. There is much more of “inquirer” grade of content than much respected “national geographic” grade of content filtering through internet maze. Maybe it is because people lack direction. I suspect that it is more on lines of education and what is actually needed to start becoming successful within reams of internet masses. Many people are building internet around their dreams rather than building a purpose and achieving those dreams. I’ve noticed that even more people don’t really know what their dreams are, let alone how to go about achieving their intended goals. And as a result, I have read everyday about how one person or other has been taken down yet another road of dreambuster alley. It must be to be pretty crowded there.That’s what I want to discuss here today. I want to discuss with you why you have gone down to dreambuster alley and what you can do so that you never have to go there again. The key word to your own personal success is Attitude. That’s right; it’s all in Attitude. It constantly resides within all of us and can rise to moment at any given time. Attitude has been known to break down our deepest emotions, like emotion of fear. Remember slogan of Nike Shoes. Just Do It! It was an ingenious command that triggered an instant attitude. Take on attitude of “Just Do It”, and all of a sudden fear of indecision was under your control and your attitude kicked in to take over, allowing you to perform task at hand. I’m sure that when you where a child, your mother gave you a similar command. Then you found yourself cleaning your room or completing whatever immediate task at hand that was demanded of you. Every single person possesses ability to have a multitude of attitudes. You can actually adapt an attitude to accomplish any task that you want to take on.

Copywriters initially used swipe files for collecting examples of outstanding copywriting techniques.

In this swipe file you will collect article ideas for future articles. Begin by typing in any article ideas that you may have already. Then build your swipe file using following suggestions: Chat Rooms - Participate in these online forums where you can chat with others by typing messages, which are instantly displayed. Choose a chat room in your topic area that is frequented by your target audience and discover hot topics everyone is discussing.

Article Directories - Sites that archive article submissions by topic are gold mines of ideas for article writers.
