Positive Thinking Does Not Equal Success

I don’t agree to some people after watching the secret or went through a seminar and say “As a conclusion, you need to think positively to success!” In my opinion, doing that is simply trying to sum all the valuable knowledge and try to make it simple for them to use and remember.

So… Is it easy?

It is. And it won’t work at all. To be success, you need to do more than just positive thinking. In fact, Law of Attraction and “The Secret” is never just thinking positively. Positive thinking alone will cause the following:

1. An Excuse
When a businessman is having low sales in his business and he try to positive think the situation, he will actually do nothing about it. He might even tell other people “Stop thinking negatively about the future. Think positively the sales will go up.” They use it as an excuse to not making any change or do something to the situation.

2. Not Learning From Mistakes
Same example, some businessman might also say “Let’s be positive and work harder. There’s nothing not effective or wrong here. (In fact, they are going the wrong way)” It closed the door to turn the business back to be profitable.

3. No Action
Positive thinking have to come with positive action too. I can’t say “Sales is not happening. Let’s be positive that it will come next month. All we need to do is sit and wait. No Action = No Result. Without action, you can’t achieve what you want or solve any problems.

To be success, it takes more than just just positive thinking. Don’t conclude all the books and the seminars you gone through and remember positive thinking. Success requires these 9 steps:

  1. Vision or Purpose of Life
  2. Dreams
  3. Goals
  4. Plan
  5. Action
  6. Self-check
  7. Re-plan
  8. Improvement
  9. Enjoy (Results and Process)
