Part II – Success Personality Traits:
Personality Trait #3 – Pushy:
This personality trade may sound a bit chocking but the truth is that most successful people are pushy. It’s a requirement you need in order to get things your way. Of course, I am not implying that you must be rude but you do need to be a bit of a persistent if you ever wish for things to go your way.
My grandpa use to say: “The squeakiest wheel always gets the most grease!” It’s a fact. Think about it. For example: who do you pay first; someone who asks you for the money so once in a while and does so with much respect and politeness or the guy who’s constantly on you butt over how much you owe him and is quite adamant about you needing to pay him?
I think we both agree that you’re more apt to pay the second guy as quick as possible if for no other reason then to get him off your back.
Successful people know exactly when to be pushy and to what extend. Want to be successful? Learn to be a bit more persistent and watch the results you’re getting….
Pushy: assertive, force-full, aggressive
How to develop a Pushy Attitude:
Start by telling yourself that “I really….”
Example: “I really would like to …..!”
“I really just can’t accept ….!”
“I really know you can help me with ….!”
Pushy Attitude requires you to be firm and strong and not whimper in your quest.
