Why do you fail? The many things we try to accomplish as human beings are mostly met with some type of failure. Tests, jobs, relationships, you name it many of us have failed something along the way. The reasons are great and numerous it would take me all day and most of tomorrow to try to come up with every little menial reason about why failure is such a part of our lives. So instead I will ask you to invite failure into your life. Yes, you heard me correctly.
One thing I find is that people I meet who are so 'afraid' of failure are also the same people who never want to change anything in their lives. They are also the same people who complain the most about the job they hate or how successful someone else is and that it isn't fair. They seem to always be putting someone down for trying something new or striking out on a feeling that they have.
I invite each and everyone of you to wake up everyday and start a new thing. If I have learned anything from being my own boss it is that failure isn't a result, it is a process. You will nevr fail if you don't try but you will never progress if you try and fail then stop. In order to truly make it to wherever it is you want to find yourself, you must fail forward, that is, you try, you fail, you look at what you did wrong and you try again. You must program yourself to think of failure as a stepping stone, not a destination. You can't reach your goal without stepping stones that guide you along the way.
Do something different, start something new, stick to it even if you fall down and get back up brush off the dust and try it again in a different way, learn from your mistakes and nothing can hold you back from living the life you deserve and desire.
Have a great and productive day.

Top 5 Reasons To Be Grateful Everyday
Attitude Drives Life exists to help others find everything they are striving to achieve. Below are the Top 5 Reasons We Need To Be More Grateful. Although we all have our problems and our heartaches that we must go through. This list is intended to remind everyone what really matters in life, especially this time of year.
5. Thank God that you were born into a free society. Whether that be any of the major developed countries we should be grateful. This simple fact ensures basically the rest of the list. So before you complain about a line at the store, or a traffic jam, remember that those could be the least of your worries had you been born somewhere else.
4. Can you read this? If you can that means someone cared enough about you to teach you how to read, 98% of all illiteracy is in undeveloped countries( see #5 ) and 2/3 of those are women. So hug a teacher and or your parents for taking the time to develop this often taken for advantage skill that we possess.
3. If you are reading this (#4) that means you have Internet access. Which through deductive reasoning I can make the following assumption. You live somewhere that has four walls a roof a floor and some form of heat. That is a home, they come in different shapes and sizes but anyone who is reading this most definitely has one. We complain too often about petty things when we actually have it very well off. Be thankful.
2. Your life could be so much worse off than it is now. Little things make up life, and we should be grateful for them. Sure we all have our problems and issues but really look around. You probably aren't currently incarcerated, high on crack, bleeding to death in an alley way, or being chased by a contract killer. Some of you might be. That's none of my business, but the vast majority complains too much about the smallest things like, nothing on tv, slow Internet, getting killed in our video games, traffic, ignorant people, lines at the store, or even how someone looks at you. In my opinion we all need to slow down, let someone in the store go ahead of us, smile at that person on the street, take a break from the Internet and video games, shut off the tv and spend time with your kids or call your parents, forgive the ignorant people, and be grateful for getting stuck at that red light, maybe you will avoid an accident because you got stuck at that light. Just smile because your alive.
The last one:
1. Being thankful for friends and family: Even if you don't have family you most likely have friends. Sometimes you love them, sometimes you hate them, but they will always be your family and friends. I know everyone isn't the same and some things happen but there is usually always someone you can turn to during an emergency, and a shoulder to cry on when your sad. These make up the people whom we should never take for granted ' for who knows what a day may bring'.
God Bless.

Motivation Starts Your Journey, Habit Finishes It
This is a quote I want across from my bed every morning. When I wake up it will greet me with a smile, to set my mindset on more important tasks.
"Motivation starts your journey; habit finishes it."
Such as following through on the greatest works in my life. This is paramount in anything you do in your life. The statement is echoed by thousands of people in society mostly leaders and professionals who know the 'secrets'. Even though they are not very secret.
These people who have the things in their lives which others folks may desire to have are usually brought about by many of years of failure, hard work and sacrifice. Of course ordinary people are too 'cool' to really apply any of these principles to their lives for an extended period of time. Usually these people are the ones who complain most about the things the successful have even though they can attain the same things if they were willing to shut off the TV and get to work.
I encourage you to start something in your life, even if it may seem insignificant, it may lead to huge changes and great things. Take that leap, and stick with it. Always know that their are leaders and mentors everywhere that can encourage and motivate you along you path.
One of these such examples is our site www.attitudedriveslife.com I hope you take them time to subscribe to the blog and like our website.
