Oxford dictionary defines success as 'the accomplishment of an aim or objective'. this means you have become a success when you achieve what you have been working earnestly to achieve.
You need to admit that success begins in your mind. As a
matter of fact, your level of success is greatly determined by your state of
mind.
Everyone wants to be successful but the mistakes that
everyone makes is that they think that success is some kind of finishing line
in a race, once you crossed that line, you will be successful ever after. That
is not true, success is a continuous and gradual process, and you must be in
position to achieve it.
Here are a few ways you could position yourself for success.
1.
Be optimistic.
Success is achieved and maintained by
people who try and keep going with a positive thought. Never allow negative
thoughts and hearsay discourage you from pursuing your dream. Thomas Edilson is
good example of a man with great optimism. We learnt that he tried and failed
for 10000 times before he produce the incandescent bulb, if he had quit in the
9999 times, he would have become a total failure but he was optimistic until he
achieve his dream.
2.
Be ready to listen and learn.
Learning is a continuous process. Don’t be
an expert on everything. Successful people are those who gives room for new
opportunities. They never believed to have arrived but always look forward to
learn and implement new things. The
basic point am driving out here is that, you must always learn more and you
must always seek out valuable information that will help you become a
successful person. You can make up your mind as you read this article

3.
Change your attitude
Your attitude is your window to the world.
In order to achieve the success you desire, you must change your attitude. Your
success in life begins and ends with your attitude. It is only when you cultivate
the right attitude towards everything in life that you can achieve the kind of
success that you desire.
Lastly, remember that every successful people
have one or more story tell, position yourself for success today and your story
will be the newest in town.
