Successful People are Driven To Achieve Their Goals

Successful People are Driven To Achieve Their Goals

Don’t Over React Emotionally to Criticism


Motivational Power Quote

Don’t Over React Emotionally to Criticism 
Never react emotionally to criticism. Analyze yourself to
determine whether it is justified. If it is, correct yourself,
otherwise, go on about your business.”
Dr. Norman Vincent Peale 1898 - 1993, Author, Minster  

As I see it. . . . . . . .

Don’t over react emotionally to criticism

If you are on the receiving end of criticism don’t over react . . . .

Look at the source of the criticism and determine if the criticism has merit. If the criticism is negative but valid . . . . thank the person for sharing the information with you and make ever effort to correct the situation.

If you’re at fault, stay in control of your emotions and the situation . . . . by admitting that you were at fault. Take responsible for your actions by admitting your responsible . . . . and you will defuse the other person and the situation will not be accelerated. 

If in analyze of the criticism you find that it’s not valid you have several choices.

Once you determine that the criticism is not valid . . . . dismiss it and move forward.

If the criticism is coming from a person that has continued to criticism you without merit or being truthful you may want to professionally approach that . . . . person have ask them for their help. Ask them to share with you fEmotions, or the source of their criticism and clear up any areas of misunderstanding.

By approaching the person professionally . . . . you are very likely to neutralize their attacks on you.

Thank the person for their input and ask them to speak to you personally in the future before they share information (criticism) with other people to ensure that they have the facts are right.

Remain calm and in control of your emotions to find the best way to resolve the situation. When you react emotionally to the criticism in many cases that is . . . . exactly what they are looking for.   

Don’t over react emotionally to criticism . . . . and you will find that you will remind in control of your emotions and as a result you will make far better decisions and remain in control of the conditions.

Your Attitude Determines How You Think About a Problem . . . .


Motivational Power Quote

Your Attitude Determines How You Think About a Problem . . . .
“How you think about a problem is more important
than the problem it-self, so away think positively.”
Dr. Norman Vincent Peale 1898 - 1993, author, minister,


As I see it. . . . . . . .

Your attitude determines how you think about a problem . . . . Makes all the difference

The person that thinks a problem is overwhelming and not resolvable makes the problem not resolvable in their mind and their actions will be a reflection of their thinking.

They will approach the problem with an attitude that the problem can not be resolved and that’s exactly what happens.  They don’t resolve the problem and problem remain unsettled and the weight of the problem becomes a burden that they continue to carry as a result of their thinking.   

The person that’s facing a problem who has a positive attitude will think of ways to resolve the problem and will focus on solutions. They will take the steps to successfully bring the problem to a successful conclusion.

When their solutions are not working they adjust and take a new approach to solving the problem until they find the right solution. They will remain focused on the solutions not the problem.

The difference in solving a problem is in the successful person’s thinking and attitude.

They have a positive can do attitude in resolving the problem. They have the conviction that they will successfully resolve the problem and that exactly what they do. They resolve the problem and move on.

When we are faced with a problem your thinking and your attitude determines how you see the problem, how handle it and how we resolve the problem.

The First Secret of Success is in What You Believe


Motivational Power Quote

The First Secret of Success is in What You Believe
People become really quite remarkable
when they start thinking that they can do things.
When they believe in themselves
they have the first secret of success.”
Dr. Norman Vincent Peale, author


As I see it. . . . . . . .

The first secret of success is in what you believe

A successful person believes in themselves and in their ability and will take their actions in accordance to their beliefs.

The secret of believing in yourself is in your attitude you can choose to believe in yourself and be a person with a positive direction in their life. Or you can live a life of negative anticipations and find them. Whatever you believe to be true is your reality. 

Some of the most successful people that I have met were neither the most skilled people nor the most talented. But they believed in themselves and worked hard to get the most out of themselves and worked hard to make their goals and dreams come true.

When you believe in yourself you move into your days with confidence.

The first secret of success in what you believe and from your beliefs everything becomes possible.
