Those who achieve mediocrity have an attitude that says, "I'll do enough just to get by." They are not enthusiastic or passionate about what they are doing, so they do not inspire others to follow their example. Therefore, they do not reach their full potential.

However, those who achieve success have an attitude that says, "I'll do whatever it takes to succeed." They are enthusiastic and so passionate about what they are doing, that they attract likeminded people who

"What attitudes make the difference between achieving mediocrity and success?"

To me, it takes patience, prudence and pragmatism.

I've just started and presently have limited resources. As enthusiastic as I am about SFI, I invest a lot of time but am prudent and practical about money. Until I get some idea of how much profit I might generate in proportion to VP and advertising production, I have to be thoughtful. To me, nothing saps interest like big investment leading

The best attitude is one of Openness to Possibilities...
When I Make a Choice and I Open Myself to the Possibility that IT IS...
The Universe align itself with me in order to make it happen.
When I think that it is impossible or it will not work...
My mind STOP searching for a Way!
Openness Creates the Way!
As with the saying:
"There is a Way and I will find it; and, if there is no Way, I will invent it!"
We must stay Open always to find this way

I will answer with a quote from Calvin Coolidge...

"Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and Determination alone are omnipotent."

Omnipotence means all Powerful. So those other qualities can help, however the driving force behind real success

Dedication,belief in self, constant effort, and a deep desire to go the extra mile always. Remember your attitude, determines your altitude. Succeesful people are never satisfied with their accomplishments, because there is always something more one can acchieve.You must also remember to help those who need your help.To whom much is given much is expected.

Your positive attitude must be on a high meter despite the challenges you might be facing. Always read and research on what will make it work and not rely on old ideas that dont work.

I am more persistent in learning what i dont know and trying to remodify it to my best interest.

Its obvious that none was born a mediocre, but what makes the difference is the ability to get transformed from the Ordinary to which we were all borne to the Extraordinary. This for sure is no majic, but is determined by one's input towards attaining a specified status.. Be it a success or a mediocre. But as the saying "Great men are ordinary men with extraordinary thinking and aspiration", I think is now perceptible, conceivable and obvious that the difference between Mediocrity and Success

There are people out there that think it is silly to help others. They believe in
taking and not giving. They are misers with their time, money and knowledge
and are only interested in opportunities where they stand to benefit. They Achieve Mediocrity...

Serving others first and Always looking for ways to add value to other people Is The Best Way To Achieve Success.

Attitude is the key to success. The attitudes that lead to success if SFI are:
1. I can do this - I will succeed. Repeated daily several times will increase your self confidence. This is the can do attitude.
2. I care about my downline - I want them to succeed. This attitude will propel you to contact and work with your downline. This is the I care attitude
3. I will be positive and not let the negatives, the bumps in the road get me down. This is the I will succeed no matter what
