STATE OF MINDWritten by Habeeb Adeokun
If you think you CAN, then you can and if you think you CAN’T, then you can’t. It’s that simple. Our state of mind can be most determining factor in achievement of our goals. People who think positively are more likely to achieve their goals than others that think negatively. Since our state of mind can either spur us into action or it can make us admit defeat or just gives us excuse we need to give up at first sign of an obstacle.The difference between a successful person and an unsuccessful person is their attitudes. A successful person believes he CAN and unsuccessful believes he CAN’T, so he admits defeat and gives up. We can all condition our minds to have a positive state of mind, i.e. The ‘can do’ attitude. We just need to remove doubts from our minds and find out what motivates us. We are all scared of unknown and of failure, which stops some people from even trying at all. Once we can master our fear and control our minds to think positively, then we will be able to achieve success in our daily lives.
| | ROAD TO SUCCESSWritten by Habeeb Adeokun
The journey to success can be likened to our daily journeys from our homes to various destinations. We all achieve success every day in our daily life mere fact that we make it out of bed and make that journey to work, college, school, and various other destinations and we never give up, for example when we get stuck in traffic, means we are successful in reaching our destination. Some people may be asking, how does a journey from your home to work compare to you achieving success in life? Well basically if we think about it, you set off on your journey to work knowing for a fact that there is bound to be some traffic or other obstacle on way to work. For example you are driving or taking train to work, you will get stopped by traffic lights, you will probably experience some traffic congestion on way to your destination, even worse there may be a diversion on you normal route and you may have to follow a different route to bypass it most of us do this every day as norm and we don’t question it. We just do it. Lets take journey by train as another example. Some trains get delayed or cancelled and you probably end up having to wait longer for next train. The train may get diverted but most of us just wait patiently until train arrives. But alas it’s not always case when it comes to achieving success. Some people give up before they even embark on journey, or at first sign of an obstacle just like a traffic light or a diversion.
