> Harvard and Stanford Universities have reported that 85% the reason a
person
> gets a job and gets ahead in that job is due to attitude; and only 15% is
> because of technical or specific skills.
> Interesting, isn't it?
> You spent how much money on your education? And you spent how much money
on
> building your positive attitude?
> Ouch. That hurts.
> Now here's an interesting thought. With the "right" attitude, you can and
> will develop the necessary skills.
> So where's your emphasis? Skill building? Attitude building?
> Unfortunately, "Neither" is the real answer for many people.
> Perhaps if more people knew how simple it is to develop and maintain a
> positive attitude they would invest more time doing so.
> So here we go.
> Five steps to staying positive in a negative world:
> 1. Understand that failure is an event, it is not a person. Yesterday
> ended last night; today is a brand new day, and it's yours. You were born
to
> win, but to be a winner you must plan to win, prepare to win, and then you
> can expect to win.
>
> 2. Become a lifetime student. Learn just one new word every day and in
> five years you will be able to talk with just about anybody about
anything.
> When your vocabulary improves, your I.Q. goes up 100% of the time,
according
> to Georgetown Medical School.
>
> 3. Read something informational or inspirational every day.
> Reading for 20 minutes at just 240 words per minute will enable you
> to read 20 200-page books each year. That's 18 more than the average
person
> reads! What an enormous competitive advantage . . . if you'll just read
for
> 20 minutes a day.
> 4. The University of Southern California reveals that you can acquire
> the equivalent of two years of a college education in
> three years just by listening to motivational and educational
> cassettes on the way to your job and again on the way home.What could be
> easier?
>
> 5. Start the day and end the day with positive input into your mind.
> Inspirational messages cause the brain to flood with dopamine and
> norepinephrine, the energizing neurotransmitters; with endorphins, the
> endurance neurotransmitters; and with serotonin, the feel-good-about-
> yourself neurotransmitter.
>
>
> Begin and end the day by reading or doing something positive!
>
> Remember: Success is a process, not an event.
> Invest the time in your attitude and it will pay off in your skills as
well
> as your career.

> Think of it.......
