Did you know that your mindset affects the level of success you experience in your business?
That was something that I was reminded of when a friend of mine asked for my help in building a business. I noticed that no matter how I tried to give suggestions and words of encouragement, my friend would just quickly and easily brush these away, already telling me that these suggestions would never work.
And as the conversation carried on, the one thing I realized was that the root of all the problems my friend was facing in building a business was not on the methods or approaches being taken. It was my friend’s mindset.
Half Full or Half Empty?
The dictionary defines a mindset as a person’s “mental attitude or inclination.” In other words, it is the way you view anything, whether it’s your business, the news you read about, or yourself.
A quick way to get an idea of what kind of mindset you have is by just simply describing the picture on the left. How would you describe it? If you say that the glass is half full, you have a positive mindset. If you say that the glass is half empty, then it means that we need to work on improving our mindset.

Whether it is about business or not, I guess it is really ideal to establish that positive mindset to keep yourself away from any stress. if you do not let the negative things overshadow you, you can always find ways to solve your problems if any.. and it will surely keep you going rather than giving up..
thanks for this wonderful tips and have a great day
Well said, Bluedreamer! Thanks for dropping by.
Business is a game of reaction. Having the right mindset makes a world of difference in willing in success.
You’re absolutely right, Franc!
it is what you’re thinking of that is going to happen. is this mindset all about? the will power of a person to accomplish something for his business or ambition is too dependent on what he has in mind. do i sound right?
Hi Gil!
Mindset is basically just that: setting our minds towards something. That can be positive or negative and happens consciously or unconsciously. Of course, there are other things needed when it comes to building a successful business. I’ll be covering on those in my future blog posts. But much of it begins in the way what we believe we can and can’t achieve, and how we view our business. 🙂
I’m a person with a positive outlook in life. But when it comes to business, positivity should also be paired with a lot of hardwork.
Absolutely, Badet!
