Success Comes From Feeling Positive About Ourselves

We all have something that we're passionate about. Can you make a career for yourself and set obtainable goals for yourself so you succeed rather tha
When you walk into a business you will see a plaque stating the mission of the company, but few people will write out their personal mission and set it as a goal for their life. We tend to live the life our parents plan for us, based on their life goals.
A Mission Statement is nothing more than the goals you want to reach in your life. As a child our parents tell us over and over how to behave, how we should treat other people, what kind of grades we should have, who we should marry, or what career we should choose for ourselves so many times that eventually we hear these things repeated in our heads so often that we begin to believe them.
This would be great if they were always positive statements meant for us to find success in our personal life. The problem is that so many times these are negative statements meant to hold us back from trying true success for ourselves.
Listen to the things you tell yourself. Which are positive and negative? How can you make the necessary changes to get rid of these negative statements? If you are negative how can you retrain the affirmations to become more positive? How can you retrain yourself to be successful and learn to believe in yourself?
One of the first things you should do is retrain your thoughts. You can do this by turning the negative statements into positive statements and repeating them over and over until you belive them, then get around successful people and pick their brain until you learn everything you can from them, use the things that will benefit you personally and forget the rest.
When you keep finding personal success in your life, eventually you will learn to believe in yourself and your reaching your goals in life, rather what others tell you to believe.
You have to make the choice for yourself to find success or whether you will be a failure. Only you can make that choice, no one can make it for you. Remember, there are people who dislike themselves, so to make themselves look good in their eyes they want you to fail, rather then feeling jealous of your success.
