Tipsy Tuesday

It is always better to imitate a successful man than to envy him.

"Of all the negative emotions, envy is perhaps the most insidious. It is especially sinister because it destroys you from the inside by replacing all that is positive and productive with negative feelings of anger, jealousy, and despair. But when you congratulate others upon their successes and genuinely wish them well, not only do you give credit to those who deserve it, but you also feel better about yourself. Once you've overcome your envy, you may want to determine what specific actions the other person took to achieve success. Meanwhile, you will have strengthened your relationships by recognizing the achievements of others."

Learning from successful people is one of my favorite obsessions. Getting curious about their thought patterns, business strategies, what they do with their spare time. Asking what traits and components do they have that I do not currently posses is a powerful way to connect with self discovery.

Listening and reading success principles from those who have become an expert in their fields tickle my imagination with possibilities for my mind and business advancement. Discussing ideas about success instead on envying people that have achieved success advances oneself in the direction of successes.

Happy Successful Trails,
Danna
