Many of you have heard me say that the three keys to success are attitude, attitude, attitude. In order to have success, it is absolutely imperative to have the proper mindset. For many, especially those beginning in a new career like ours with RMS, this is new.
Perhaps you have been the type of person that when you wake up, you press the snooze button and do that over and over again. When you were posed the question, “How are you doing today?” You may have given the response like most do, “I’m doing okay, fair to middling, not bad,” etc. Now all of a sudden, you are hearing people say, “I’m doing fantastic! I’m excited about today! Today is my day!”
So today, I’m going to give you some pointers on how you can transform your mind into a positive one.
1) Start the day with positive self-talk.
Win the morning and you will win the day. As soon as that opportunity clock starts buzzing, countdown 5-4-3-2-1 and then rise up! How you start the morning sets the tone for the rest of the day. Make sure you have a good, positive morning routine every single day.
Start your day with positive affirmations. Look in the mirror and start making statements to yourself like, “I am going to be amazing today! Today is going to be a super fantastic day! I am awesome! I am a winner!” Start doing this daily and you will be amazed how much your attitude and your day improves.
2) Keep your focus on the positive.
I want to make something crystal clear. You will have obstacles. You will have challenges. There is no such thing as a perfect day. Whenever you encounter a challenge, focus on the benefits. Find the good in everything. Look at every challenge and difficulty as an opportunity to grow and learn.
If you find yourself focusing too much on negative things, it is time to change your focus. Keep it positive.
3) Surround yourself with winners.
You are who you hang around with. Stay away from the naysayers. Make the decision to not hang around with people who are going to drag you down. When you surround yourself with positive, successful people you will hear positive stories, encouragement, and positive affirmations.
Thankfully at RMS, there are plenty of positive people that will encourage and help you. Find the people, who are in life, where you want to be and go hang out with them.
Positive mindset is a process. It’s something that you have to do daily. There is so much negativity out there in the world; all you have to do is turn the news on and they will tell you all about it.
Be careful what you are putting into your mind. Read positive books. Listen to uplifting music. Talk to people daily who are encouraging.
Once you have made the decision that you are going to live a positive life, you will be amazed how people will start drawing to you. Life is short. Choose to have a positive mindset.
Have a super positive week!
