Stunning Review Of 17 Differences Between Successful AndUnsuccessful People

It’s the determined mindset that rules the world of the successful people, but how can we attain the so -called

“determined mindset”?

Determined mindset is structured from habits that are always harder to reach. Should I finish my task, or

should I go out first? Lot of people decides to do the former.

It’s always, ALWAYS a struggle to reach the point of stability and self -confidence where it never occurs to us

that we may fail in l ife. That point, my friends, is the top of the mountain, or the “determined mindset.”

To reach that point (at least verbally) we will expand the topic in 17 differences between successful and

unsuccessful people.

1. Criticize vs. Compliment

Criticizing is easily done, but it’s hard to give even a slight compliment. We often compliment the “weak ties”

or not-so-close relatives, but we forget to complement our close ones.

Not only in friends and family, but in our workplace we have to embrace o ur colleagues too. You wouldn’t

believe how people want to be around you when you sincerely tell them that “they did a good job”, or “their

dress is glamorous.” Try it. You will be amazed.

2. Sense of entitlement vs. Sense of gratitude

There are two sacks in our soul. One is ego and one is gratitude. The ego is really not a bad thing if we don’t

feed with each and everything. If you see that the ego is the “worth” of the person you will grasp that it’s really

important thing. However, the ego is not for fee ding, although it’s always hungry.

The other sac, where the gratitude is located, we need to feed it every day with each and everything we are

thankful for. The man who lost his shoes was walking depressed barefoot until he saw a guy with no legs.

Appreciate what you have, always.

3. Take all their credit of their victories vs. Give other people credit fortheir victories

You see, one man cannot make a miracle. Whatever it is, however it may turn out, there will always be a group

of people (or a chain reaction of people) that made enormous change. Even if we manage to do enormous thing

by ourselves, we were triggered by our closed relatives (parents, friends, acquaintances, family etc ..). Even it

could be a trigger by our last girlfriend that left us!

Successful people share their victories and give other people credit for their victories.

4. Watch TV everyday vs. Read every day

Reading itself expands our visualization, enriches our vocabulary and forms a way of virtually visualizing

situations and images that no movie ever will. Not to mention tha tthe news are always telling us things we

don’t want to hear. Don’t get me wrong. Watching TV is not forbidden, but reading shouldn’t be switched for TV. Successful

people just don’t have time to do both.

5. Talk about people vs. Talk about Ideas

Talking about other people is the lowest level of conversation. It goes from the bottom (talking about people)

to the middle (talking about events) and finally the top (talking about ideas.)

Strive to talk about ideas or at least events. Never discuss about people. That’s so low that you will be

splashing in the pond instead of lurking in the ocean. Imagine that.

6. Exude anger vs. Exude joy

To get to the success, we cannot be exuding anger. It will never lead to a success. Success is positive emotion

and since positivity is a way of joy, we need to force that as an aura. We have to enjoy what we do to climb the

mountain of success. No one on earth is successful by climbing the mountain angry. They just don’t attract

each other.

Be joyful and wanted in your environment. You will be one step closer to your personal success.

7. Horde information and data vs. Share information and data

When someone says “I shared” the information, it has to be analyzed before you get to the next level. We are

able to say the same thing with different tone and body language and it will end up having completely different

meaning.

For example “Give me the salt” with a smile and gratitude can be different if we say it with elevated voice and

shaded eyes. Successful people share information and data precisely as they want to be understood.

8. Fear change vs. Embrace change

It’s really dividable on people who are elastic to change and people who fear making any steps further. It’s like

giving people a choice: either make the leap of faith (fear of the unknown) or stay comfy with your life you are

living now. The choice we need to make is ours and ours only.

We all know the choice successful people make. That’s now quantum physics.

9. Fly by their seat of their pants vs . Keep a “to -do/project” lists

The meaning fly by their seat of their pants means to “decide a course of action as you go along, using your

own initiative and perceptions rather than a pre- determined plan or mechanical aids.” The part where we use

our initiative and perceptions to determine our course of actions is kind of better, but if keep that way without

to-do lists and projects, we won’t make it far. That’s the style of a gambler. Not a style of successful person.

By some scientific research, we have 60.000 thoughts per day and 95% are from the previous day! That thing

can’t be managed without to -do lists and taking notes.

10.Hold a grudge vs. Forgive others

Forgiving others saves enormous amount of time while holding grudges will take that precious time away.

People are not aware that one day they will be gone and how did they spend their time? Holding grudges?

When we sincerely find the answer to these questions we will be forgiving everybody for everything.

Remember, forgive, but never forget.

11.Blame others for their failures vs. Accept responsibility for theirfailures

Even though sometimes it’s really not our fault, we cannot blame people for their mistakes and failures,

especially if we are head of that department (or the whole firm.) We are unity; we work as a team and fail as a

team. If that person keeps doing mistakes you can always pick your own squad.

Successful people see a whole, not a unit.

12.“Say” they keep a journal vs. Keep a journal

Journal is the most sacred thing a man can possess. Not because you write down your secrets and not-so-

ordinary thoughts, but because that’s the only time you express your emotions in the real world. They are now

on a paper (or on your WordPress.) Journal is a must! Talk to yourself in actions, rather than wandering and

staying in your head.

13.Secretly hope others fail vs. Want others to succeed

Even our close relatives (just make a l ittle test) want to see us fail. It’s because of the challenge that lives in all

of us since prehistoric times. Everybody wants to see you do good, but not better than them.

Of course it can be changed, but they don’t bother to see it like that.

People who don’t work hard will never lay success in their hands and people who work hard know how it feels

like to work your way to success. So the only people who want to see you fail are the ones who never try to do

anything with their life and rather stay in the comfort zone forever.

Honestly, people who do better than us should be our personal motivation and a spark of inspiration. See them

that way. You will heal yourself from your dirty secret.

14.Don’t know what they want to be vs. Keep a “to -be” lists

One honest simple question can be entangling most of the world’s population. “WHAT DO YOU WANT TO

BE IN LIFE?”

People fear that they might become successful and never seem to start to think “what they want to be.” It’s

really one simple question that is unknown to most.

On this question, I will suggest one exercise. Take a piece of paper, write the question down in the middle of

the paper and connect arrows with everything you would like to be. Force yourself to think on it, deeply, even

for 30 minutes, and fin ally start writing. It’s the first question you need to answer that will change your life,

believe me.

After knowing what you would like to be (if you don’t know) you will know where you should be headed.

15.Never set goals vs. Set goals and develop life plans

Successful people have goals. It’s no secret. They write it on a paper (what they would like to achieve in 3, 6,

9, 12 months.) It’s bewildering how a thing can become reality if we put it on a piece of paper and read it every

day twice (as soon as we wake up and before we go to sleep.) The idea is to surround ourselves with the personal goals.

Start your day with your personal prayer and end it with it. I will guarantee that your mind will unconsciously

strive towards that thing.

16.Think they know it all vs. Continuously learn

No one knows it all. If one” knows it all” the person will go nuts, and no one want’s to go nuts.

Instead, we need to face a direction, say, fitness trainer and continuously improve in that direction with workand practice. Matthew McConaughey and Denzel Washington were not that entertaining the first time they

acted in a movie. Thomas Edison didn’t invent the light -bulb from the first try.

Life is continuous learning.

17.Operate from a transactional perspective vs. Operate from atransformational perspective

People who will never respect you and see you only as a free pass in the future will always count you as “I owe

you one” and “You owe me one.” No, forget that! Move away from that people and if you find yourself here

change ASAP!

Successful people don’t count help on a paper. They help to see themselves growing, not to calculate and to

put their pressure on their friends and business.

Moreover, everything is said here. You can find most of your surrounding described up here. If you want to

change them, pass them this writing. I am sure they will thank you later.
