SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE MINDSET

Some people fail forward. Others fail and quickly spiral downward. These two types of people are very different, but how?

“The difference is on the inside. It’s the spirit of the individual. Those who profit from adversity possess a spirit of humility and are therefore inclined to make the necessary changes needed to learn from their mistakes, failures, and losses. They stand in stark contrast to prideful people who are unwilling to allow adversity to be their teacher and as a result fail to learn."

But failure to learn isn’t the only way pride impacts a person. Prideful people blame others, deny the obvious truth, and are closed-minded, rigid, insecure, and isolated from others. All of these can be detrimental to any human being, especially one who is interested in growing.

However, if you can move past arrogance and work toward humility, they can become the very best. Great talent is good, but great talent with a spirit of learning is better. As a person, we need more than just talent to be successful. In fact, humble people/leaders must not boast in their talent, but instead, must be confident in the ways they can build others and build organizations regardless of failure.
