Successful People Have Powerful Vocabularies-It Really Is All In The Wording-Power Words Help You In Business and Life
'As you think, so you shall become' – Bruce Lee
It may sound a little optimistic (that's kind of the idea) that you can become whatever you want to – including a massive success – through mostly thoughts alone. However Bruce Lee was certainly a successful guy, so it might be best to give him the benefit of the doubt on this one.
And if you talk to any other successful person they will say the same thing – that in order to become successful you have to think that you are successful, believe you'll be successful and use powerful visualisation tools to imagine yourself in the position of success that you are striving to achieve. So how can this work? How can you 'will' yourself into success?
Well it works through several fairly logical mechanisms. The first is called a 'self fulfilling prophecy'. That describes the fact that by believing yourself to be a certain way, you eventually make yourself so. In the most simple and straightforward example of that if you believe you are depressed you'll get depressed about it, and if you believe you are happy it'll make you happy.
Obviously when it comes to success the mechanism is a little more complicated as you just will not automatically get a new job or partner. However what will happen is that as you start to think of yourself as someone who either is or will be successful you will find it makes you more confident. You'll have that knowing smirk and you'll hold yourself differently when you walk around the office. At the same time you'll start treating your work more seriously (if you are important then your work must be very important) and you'll start dressing more carefully to wear clothes befitting of your success.
