Success builds on Ability, Motivation & Attitudes

WE ARE ALL HERE TO DO SOMETHING GREAT WITH OUR LIFE - If you want to be a success at whatever your plan is you have to learn to build on three things - Ability, Motivation, & Attitudes.

We all start with some ability; something that is unique in our life. It could be your ability to write or express yourself. It could be your ability to analyze things or musical or artistic; something that makes you unique - An innate talent.

For some reason, I was born with a natural desire to express myself musically. While I confess that I haven't developed that ability to its fullest, it is something that I enjoy doing.

I was also born with the desire or curiosity that seeks answers to questions. I have never settled for a "pat" answer, I want to know for myself why something works or does not work.

What abilities are you born with? We all have some innate ability. Find yours then learn to develop it and improve on it.

Finding and developing your abilities will help build success in your life.

Motivation - that reason for doing things is also a driving factor in success.

Abilities are great but if you are not motivated to be great; to make something out of your life then any ability you have is wasted.

Why are you here? What is your purpose in life?

Why are you putting your hopes in WA to build your dream?

You have to find the reason and that reason is the motivation you need to put out whatever effort you need to succeed.

That motivation has to be greater than the natural tendency we all have to just back off, take a job, and enjoy life.

Your motivation will push you to excel; to succeed.

Don't have any! Look to all the writers and motivational speakers there is a ton of information out there for anyone to help them find their motivation.

Motivation is up to you my friend.

Top your ability and motivation off with Attitude.

Attitude - How you think about things.

Positive - Negative - Indifferent. Where do you fall?

Believe me, you can be born with a ton of ability and sincerely want to do something great with your life but if you have an "I can't do it" attitude you are wasting your time.

To be a success in life and in any endeavor you must have a "Can do Attitude"

You must be like the little train that said "I think I can, I think I can" all the way up the mountain.

You must live by the rule "Can we do it - Yes we can"!

If you think you can't then it is a good time to stop and ask yourself why. What holds you back?

Do the research - those who think they can do it, those who think they can't don't.

Success comes when individuals learn to use and improve on their abilities, motivation, and attitude.

That's it, my friends, I hope I helped you somehow along the way to success.

Please like and know that I would love to hear your thoughts.
