Attitude for Success


If you want a miracle, change your attitude.  

August’s Awakening, Day 17

Any fact facing us is not as important as our attitude toward it, for that determines our success or failure.

 —Norman Vincent Peale 

A strong positive attitude will create more miracles than any wonder drug.

 —Patricia Neal 

Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude.

 —Zig Ziglar 

 

Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. Hebrews 12:1–2a NIV 

 

            Success in life requires the proper attitude as the motivating factor to achieve the greater end. The basic formula for success may be summarized by this: Attitude x Effort x Skill = Performance. Note that without the proper attitude, it matters not your skill level or effort involved, for the underlying attitudinal motivation is always essential. Success requires all the ingredients to be in proper proportion and properly mixed. If anything is lacking, performance will suffer. The most success will come when we concertedly pay attention to our attitude, effort level applied, and the continual increase in our skill level and skill set. If you want to reach the stars, you’ve got to believe that somehow you can get there, and make every effort to do so.
