If you could do or have anything you want, what would you desire in your life? What actually happens to those successful people who do seem to get everything they desire? Let’s take a closer look.
1.. Successful people do not give up when what they want does not happen. They keep moving forward. They don’t see the results they are getting as failure.
They are focused. If you have ever seen any professional sports players, you know what focused people look like. For example, a linebacker has to know where the runner is going and make decisions as to what he is going to do. 2.. Instead, he is thinking about getting to the point where the runner is going to be and stopping him.
They know how to separate what is important from what is not. We have so many decisions to make every day. 3.. You know you need to finish what you are doing at present. However, you decide to lunch with your friend and end up spending more time than expected. So you are able to separate what is important from what is not. You will find yourself achieving your goals a lot faster. 4..
They are committed. When it takes more than six months to achieve a goal, people who are committed will stay the course to the very end. Most people want their goals achieved in a short time. 5.. But whether the goal you are planning to achieve is long-term or short-term, take these four qualities and include them in your action plan.
A.He is thinking about nothing else
B.Usually successful people do respond very quickly
C.There are short-term goals and long-term goals
D.Sometimes you get a call from a friend to go out for lunch
E.They know what they want
F.Achieving a goal needs your careful thinking and correct decision
G.And also you will find yourself doing more of what you want to do rather than you have to do

Researchers have found that being grateful isn’t just a nice personal quality that leads to good manners. I also leads to a great payoff. By being truly thankful for all that life provides, a child has more chance of being emotionally, and socially Successful.
“Gratitude opens your mind and lets you recognize the goodness in your life,” says Froh, a psychology professor who has conducted eight studios on gratitude over the past three years. According to Froh, a grateful child feels more connected and loved. After all, if he’s able to understand that many others care enough to make an effort for him, his life is improved. When older children aged 14 to 19 are able to acknowledge their good fortune, they’re more likely to be happy and experience lower levels of depression, envy and selfness.
For the past decade, experts like Froh have been conducting “gratitude interventions(干预)”, in which kids are encouraged to do a series of exercises, from writing a thank-you note to reciting it to make a gratitude journal, Overall, the results have been encouraging: Just in comparison with adults, it seems that children become more grateful.
Yet there remains much to be learned about children and gratitude. There’s some evidence suggesting that girls are more grateful than boys, Also, Froh says that while there’s not yet any hard data, there’s possibility that a child’s ability to be grateful depends on his or her age. One study looked at gratitude and life satisfaction in kids aged 3 to 9 and found that only 7 to 9-year-olds followed the example set by their parents in their ability to feel true gratitude. Most 3 to 6-year-olds don’t have the emotional development to see outside themselves enough to be truly grateful.
So how do people apply these newfound scientific findings? Froh encourages parents not to command children to express their thanks, but to let them show gratitude in whatever way is most comfortable. As Froh points out, children learn best when grown-ups model the very behavior they’d like to see in their kids.
