My 3 Essential Components of a Success Mind-Set - the three components I believe are essential in order to create a powerful success mindset.

1. 3 Essential Components of a
Success Mind-set by Nicholas
Davies

2. WELCOME TO THE SECOND OF THE
SUCCESS PSYCHOLOGY POWER
BRIEFINGS!
Success Psychology aims to
understand the principles required
to master the success mind-set and
present them for the benefit of
others. The aim of the Power
Briefings are to make them available
to an even wider group of people.
In this second visual briefings from
‘Success Psychology’, I’ll be looking
at what I consider to be the three
essential components of a Success
‘Mind-Set’.

3. In order to obtain success in
whatever your chosen field
is, you need to have the right
‘mind-set.’
I personally believe there are
three essential components
that are required in order to
create a powerful ‘success
mind-set’. These components
are not something just limited
to super-achievers. The truth
is, anybody can do it!:

4. Everyone has limiting beliefs, it has we
deal with them that matters. By limiting
beliefs, I mean the deep rooted ideas a
person has about themselves deep in their
subconscious. They are difficult to
change, very often because they have been
embedded for so long. However, if they are
not tackled and are left to fester in the
background, they will soon re-emerge and
begin the process of self-sabotage that can
derail any progress towards achievement.
ACTION:
If you have limiting beliefs you need to deal
with, NLP has some very useful strategies
for dealing with them. You can find a
qualified NLP practitioner by clicking the

Brilliant NLP by David Molden and Pat
Hutchinson

5. The opposite to ‘limiting beliefs’ is a
powerful self-belief in one’s own
ability to succeed. If you believe
that you cannot fail in whatever you
do and that nothing will deter you
from achieving, the chances of
success are very, very high. The
person who has a powerful self-
belief does not recognise failure –
they only see it as a form of ‘feed-
back.’ In other words, they learn
from their mistakes and find new
ways of doing things.
ACTION:
The mind can be re-conditioned to
adopt more powerful self-beliefs.
For this type of work, I would highly
recommend the following book by
Paul McKenna: Change Your Life in
7 Days

6. Fear is a state which can take
control of us unless we take
control of it. Although fear exists
as an essential survival
mechanism and should often be
seen as friend, it should not be
allowed to dominate otherwise
the outcome will be ‘paralysis’.
Fear can be conquered a number
of ways, but one of the most
effective is just to take action.
Whatever your goal, be prepared
to work through any fear you
have by taking action to move
towards that goal. In all the
likelihood, the fear will disappear
very rapidly!
ACTION:
If there is something you have
been putting off because of
fear, why not just try starting it
anyway? You may find that the
fear will quickly dissipate once
you get into it!
