career Do you have the right attitude?
Whether it is work or personal life,winners are those who know that the right attitude can take them through.
Attitude is the switch that turns on everthing else.When
you master your attitude, you master your life.A study conducted at the Harvard
University found that when a person succeeds and goes up the ladder,
85 per cent of the time it is because of his attitude and only 15 per
cent of the time it is because of what he is or what he knows. In fact,even
before people buy anything from you like services,goods or ideas-they
first buy your attitude. The quality and effectiveness of your communication
is a matter of your attitude. Your attitude means more to people than
what you say to them.This is true not only from the corporate world perspective,
but also from our personal lives viewpoint. Attitude
has either made a person extremely successful or it has destroyed a person
completely.

of attitude do you need to cultivate to generate success?
There is a wonderful story of the three bricklayers at a new building
site. A visitor walks over to the first bricklayer and asks, “ What

visitor then asks the same questions to the second worker. The response
is “ I am building a wall.”Finally the visitor asks this
question to the third worker, who says,”I am building a hospital
for the sick people, so that they can come here and get cured.” Now
evaluate the three responses, the difference clearly is in their attitudes
and which surely affects performance.How we think shows through in how
we act.

It takes a lot of working on and character. Everyone likes to win but

to win. It takes sacrifice and self-discipline. There is no replacement
to hard work honestly and discipline.”
