Successful people have certain trait in common, no matter
their field of endeavor: academic, sport, entertainment, movie, entrepreneurship
and business just to mention but a few. There may be some distinguishable
differences in their character and some of these winners are more renown than
some others howbeit, there are certain characters they all exhibit which make
them standout. These traits can be developed and cultivated through self discipline,
motivation and dedication.
Trait1-They are resolute
Once they made up their mind to get a thing done, no matter
the impossibilities, they fight hard to get it done. Determination is their
driving force. Great achievers are die hard people with a strong spirit that
can not be easily broken down.
Trait2- They believe
in themselves and in what they do
Every great successful people don’t fear if they will fail
because they believe they achieve success. They don’t doubt their ability. They
also believe in very much in what they do. do it as if their life depends on it.
Trait3- They take
responsibility and are responsible
They don’t trade blames nor point fingers; they take
responsibility for everything that happens. A team was given a task and the
course of executing the task, a major error occurred, the group leader in his
presentation told the board that they all were responsible for the mistake. The
board insisted that the person working in that section at that moment should be
named and should be made to go in for it. The leader was very resolute and
adamant in providing the person he said if anyone should be punished they all
should be punished. He was issued a query at the end he was commended,
admonished and promoted for the good spirit of leadership he showed. If you
must achieve greatness, be responsible; integrity will take you there and sustain you there..
Trait4- They welcome
failure but learn lessons from it
The fear of failure is a good start to failure. They fail
several time though not deliberately, it is in the course of discovering and
trying to do the right thing. Howbeit, whenever they fall they rise, pick some
thing up and try never to repeat such mistake.
Trait5-They are
teachable
They are humble and willing to learn from anyone who is
imparting the knowledge. Being teachable is the secret to discovering new ideas.
Trait6- They don’t
wait for chances, circumstances or opportunities; they create one
People fail because they think to be successful is just
being lucky. Great achievers create the circumstances and avenues for greatness
and success. A lucky man is one who does not depend on luck to succeed. Your potentials
are for you to manipulate your environment and yield results.
Trait7- They are goal
getters
They make goals and work hard to get it. In Nigeria today,
in the banking sector, they are always given a monthly and yearly targets; if
you meet up with them you get promotion if you can’t you may face probation or
face redundancy that you may be sacked. They set target and when they meet it,
they set a higher target.
Trait8- They don’t
give up easily
They may fail, they may sometimes not meet up with their
desired goals but they keep going, making modalities to improve and get better
results. They fight till the end.
Trait9- They are
voracious readers
The problem with most African political leaders is that they
don’t read that is one of the things that is accounting for the poor leadership
style and impoverishment facing the continent. Readers are leaders; you can’t
take a lead in the path of greatness if you are not a voracious reader. Great achievers
always seek new information, ideas and knowledge.
Trait10- They always
find a way out
They get fulfillment when they solve problems, unravel puzzles
and simplify difficult situation. If there is a problem they always find a way
out to solve it and they don’t leave anything undone.
If you want to be great and arrive at stardom then start
today, develop these traits work on yourself. The largest room in the world is
the room for personal development but it is the less populated room ever. People
are always comfortable in where they are. Dare to improve.
You are few steps away from success, just aply the right attitude
