5 common traits among winners

Everyone was born a winner. You and I included.  Now that you know you were BORN a winner, let me teach you a few things so that you can continue your winning streak.

How do we begin to envision and manifest these winning qualities within us? What are the characteristics of the people who become winners? What does it take to win? What are some of the traits and behaviors that these people practice? I have listen down 5 of them below.

1. Resilient

Resilience is the mental ability to recover quickly from misfortunes. The people who are gaining much in life are able to overcome challenges by developing the wisdom needed to surmount all the traumas, stress, and shifts in responsibility and change the world. These exceptional kind of people don’t entertain negativity and continue to push on with a strong sense of organization, patience and fortitude — when they fail and especially when they are down. Resolute, they may move slower while contemplating their path. But they have an inner strength and tenacity that makes them successful at high levels over the long term.

2. Self-respect

Powerful men and –women who win do not count on others for their sense of self-worth, drive for success or personal satisfaction. These people soothe themselves when life get tough and continue to operate with a sense of composure. When life is stressful and challenging, these standouts tap into their strength and pliability and continue forward with the faith that all things will work out in their favor. That’s because they deeply believe in their value and worth, their goals and the importance of their mission.

3. Self-control.

The people who win are internally driven, confident and in control of their emotions. They’re not needy, desperate or overly reactive. They view a rejection as providing direction toward a new and even better opportunity. They don’t get down when challenged. They rise up. These super achievers don’t depend on others for resources. They are passionate about their goals and deliberate in their pursuit of a larger purpose. They are completely committed to living their personal legend don’t let outside influences deter them from their focus.
These exceptional kind of people view risk as rewarding — as something that provokes the expansion of their business aspirations. They’re not afraid of failure and don’t fear success. They welcome and celebrate the results of their efforts, taking great pride and joy in their journey, not just their destination. It’s their joy that drives their resilience to keep expanding and pressing forward in their pursuits.

4. Discernment

Who you walk with is who you become. Great professionals are discerning about the company they keep and whom they choose to work for. They’re aware that negativity is drama producing and are mindful about whom they surround themselves with. They secure mutually beneficial personal relationships, understanding that without such arrangements, nothing productive can be gained over the long term. Their personal relationship choices are important to them as they’re mindful that a dearth of personal happiness dilutes their energy for business pursuits. Great professionals understand that less is more. Hard work is vital to their persona. They let humility lead the way so that their success, not their mouth, does the talking.

5. Focused

The people who win are shrewd, focused and determined. Focus is the ability to concentrate, to pay more attention. It can also mean the ability to apply what you have learned. These kind of people keep their efforts focused on their goals regardless of the distance required to travel to fulfill them. Reinventing themselves is part of their DNA.
There is always a single best action to take. This is the formula, Decide, take action and don’t worry about everything else. Focus is very important, it’s necessary because it allows for consistent progress in one area at a time, which is what your brain is best suited for.

When you align yourself with people who have negative thoughts about you and what you do, they will always discourage you. Telling you all the time that you can’t make it. This results you to lack self-confidence. And many people don’t do it because of the fact that they allow their lack of self-confidence to demobilize them. So, decide to align yourself with the kind of people who are winners so that you can become like them.
