Why to develop a Positive Mindset?

You often hear it said: “success is a state of mind”. There is a lot of talk about the need to have a positive mindset if you want to succeed. However, there are those who argue that success is the natural result of good planning, preparation and focused action, and there is certainly a grain of truth to this view – but there are also many exceptions that tend to disprove this “rule”.

Have you ever wondered how two people can aim for the same goal in the same way and only one of them succeeds? Is it luck? Time schedules? No, it’s a person’s state of mind that determines whether they fail or succeed.

What is a state of mind, anyway?

Generally speaking, a state of mind refers to how you view life on a day-to-day basis. It’s what you think about, what you focus on and what you expect from your daily experiences. Think negatively, expect the worst, be pessimistic about your options and that is exactly what you will attract into your life. Likewise, think positively, expect the best and focus on success and you will get it most of the time.

It makes sense, doesn’t it? But how exactly does it work?

Why is a success mindset so important?

There are three main reasons:

1) A success mindset builds your self-confidence

A lack of self-confidence is usually accompanied by a sense of helplessness and futility, which is exactly the opposite of a success mindset. Lack of confidence means that you don’t see the point of trying to succeed, because you believe it won’t happen anyway. Obviously, this type of mindset is a recipe for failure in any business.

Having a true success mindset, on the other hand, means that you believe in yourself and your abilities. You believe that you can succeed at just about anything you try, and you’re willing to do your best. Better yet, the more you try, the more confidence you develop – until you are virtually unbeatable! You feel like a winner and act like one.

2) A success mindset strengthens your resolve

Without a success mindset, one failure is enough to convince you that pursuing your goals is a waste of time. Tenacity and determination don’t exist in your world. If you don’t achieve resounding success the first time you try, you assume it just wasn’t meant to be. Unfortunately, few things are worth it if they are obtained so easily!

A success mindset, however, reinforces your awareness that failure is not the end of the story – it’s just that things didn’t work out the way you planned. In fact, the person with a true success mindset is aware that the only true failure occurs when they stop trying.

3) A success mindset encourages successful actions

Have you ever found yourself going in circles because you didn’t know the best way to approach a specific goal? You may have had an idea of the best course of action, but felt put off by some of the necessary steps. As a result, you may have sabotaged your efforts by searching in vain for an easier or less scary way to reach your goal.

With a true success mindset, you will always know which actions are most effective and will lead directly to your goal. As already mentioned, you will also have the inner confidence and determination to pursue them, which is a sure recipe for success.

If I had to summarize how to develop a success mindset in as few words as possible, I would say this:

• Follow your dreams.
• Think positively.
• Believe in yourself.
• Believe you can do better.
• Learn, grow and develop.
• Be willing to take risks.
• Give it your all.
• Expect the best in every situation.
• Be prepared to fail.
• When you fall, get up and try again.

Keep doing this and you will not be able to do anything but succeed. The key to all of this success is perseverance because you can’t assume that the results of the work you do on yourself will be felt immediately. You must persevere while maintaining the right mindset.
