Positive Attitude - Key To Success

By Dan Miller

Positive Attitude - Key to Success - You can't live a Positive Life with a Negative Mind

Positive mental attitude is a concept that has been developed in many areas of life as a key to success. In 1937, Napoleon Hill introduced the importance of positive thinking in his book, "Think and Grow Rich".  Later on, other scholars such as W. Clement Stone found positive mental attitude as a very critical component to personal success and productivity.

The right mental attitude is associated with positive characteristics such as hope, courage, faith, optimism, generosity, initiative, tolerance, kindliness, and good common sense.

Positive attitude is more of a philosophy that builds on the fact that having an optimistic disposition in any circumstance of life can help you in enhancing achievement and positive changes. It is a state of mind that tirelessly seeks for ways of victory regardless of the surrounding circumstances. Positivity by its mere definition opposes negativity, hopelessness and defeatism.

To develop mental strength, you need deliberate measures and commitment. A resilient mind is one that never loses focus even when subjected to the most stressful conditions. Mental toughness will help you maneuver through stress and emerge stronger than before.

A mental attitude is the bridge that connects success and failure. On one end of the bridge is failure which is characterized by negativity while on the other end it is success which is denoted by a positive attitude. At any given time, individuals are between the two points emotionally. They are at liberty to swing towards any end but they must also be ready to bear the consequences.

It is true that you can overcome negativity but you must be determined. Having a clear understanding of the end result can motivate you to changing from negativity into positivity. With a positive attitude it is possible to turn situations of failure into success.
