Let’s take a deeper look at what each one really means …
Belief 1–Everything happens for a reason and a purpose. Even if something doesn’t turn out how you wanted,take that as a learning experience and imagine the possibilities of improvement. What did you learn? How can I improve this situation?
Belief 2–There is no such thing as failure,only results. Never look at a result that you did not want as a failure, look at it as a learning experience.
Belief 3–Whatever happens,take responsibility. Great leaders and successful people all believe that they create their own world. Remember the phrase “I am responsible, I will take care of it!”
Belief 4–It is not necessary to understand everything to use it. If other people have done something or you have tried it and it worked, then go out and do that. Do not spend tons of time analyzing everything, do it and then if you want to go back and study how it works, thats fine. Like Nike says “Just Do It”
Belief 5-People are our greatest resource. Take advantage of information that people are sharing. Learn from others who are sucessfull. If someone is offering free information through word of mouth, or newsletters, or seminars, take the information and learn from it.
Belief 6–Work is play. Do you know any successful person who absolutely hates what he does? I don’t think so. Enjoy life, Enjoy your work. Mark Twain once said, ”the secret to success is making your vocation your vacation” Thats what successful people do.
Belief 7–There is no abiding success without commitment. Individuals who succeed have a belief in the power of commitment. Use the term W.I.T.- Whatever it takes.
