SUCCESS...BE THE BEST YOU CAN BE

TODAY AT WORK WE HAD A MEETING/ TRAINING AT OUR ADMIN OFFICE.

THEY BROUGHT IN A LADY I WANNA SAY HER NAME IS KELLY. WHEN YOU THINK WORK MEETING

MOST PEOPLE THINK OF IT BEING BORING...OR THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT.

BUT IT WAS ACTUALLY FUN AND I ENJOYED HEARING HER. SHE TALKED ABOUT SUCCESS AND

BEING THE VERY BEST YOU CAN BE. I WANTED TO SHARE A FEW THINGS THAT SHE SHARED WITH US THAT I LOVED.

• THE FACTORS OF SUCCESS: ATTITUDE AND MOTIVATION

-ATTITUDE: IS MADE UP OF THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS THAT ARE MANIFESTED IN OUTWARD BEHAVIOR.

• THE POWER OF A POSITIVE ATTITUDE:

-IMPROVES COPING SKILLS

-CREATES OPTIMISM

-DECREASES NEGATIVE THINKING

-IMPROVES HEALTH

-INCREASES CRITICAL THINKING

-INCREASES SUCCESS RATE

• THE IMPORTANCE OF MOTIVATION

-ITS THE ONE THING THAT KEEPS US GOING WHEN THE GOING GETS TOUGH

-WHEN WE FEEL LIKE GIVING UP; WHEN WE FEEL LAZY; WHEN WE FEEL FRUSTRATED, ITS MOTIVATION THAT PULLS IS THROUGH

-WITHOUT MOTIVATION GREAT THINGS CANNOT BE ACHIEVED

"SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE AREN'T BORN THAT WAY. THEY BECOME SUCCESSFUL BY ESTABLISHING THE HABIT OF DOING THINGS UNSUCCESSFUL PEOPLE DON'T LIKE TO DO. THE SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE DON'T ALWAYS LIKE THESE THINGS THEMSELVES; THEY JUST GET ON AND DO THEM." -JOHN MAXWELL
