Believe me, today's title contains three most important words when it comes to being successful in life, and they are attitude, discipline and reliability. The first of our trio of very important words is attitude. There's no doubt about it whatsoever, if you wish to have what we generally refer to as a good life across the board, you've got to cultivate a good, positive, and indeed, very pleasant overall attitude. I'm sure that most of my valued readers have repeatedly heard the catchy phrase "your attitude determines your altitude", which means, in effect, that provided you have the right attitude, you'll be able to proceed up the ladder of success and thus be a winner in life.
So number one: We have established that having a good attitude is vital for a successful life. However, let's face it, it can be difficult at times to consistently have the right attitude when one is going through a rather rough period in one's life, which, let's face it, we all go through from time to time. We'll also have to deal with others whose attitude stinks, to put it mildly.
And my friend, here's where our second word in today's success recipe comes in, namely discipline. There's no doubt about it whatsoever, if you wish to be successful across the board by having the right attitude at all times, it's going to take a whole lot of discipline on your part. Even when you don't feel like it you must discipline yourself to do the right thing at all times.
So attitude and discipline are vital to success across the board. Finally, if you wish to become successful and maintain your level of success in life, well then, there's no doubt about it, you've got to develop reliability in all that you undertake. People need to be able to rely on you to have the right attitude and be a very disciplined individual. So there you have it. A simple three-word formula for success across the board -- attitude, discipline and reliability.
