Successful People's Points of View in Life
Everyone wants to succeed, but few people take time to study success. Similarly, everyone dislikes failure, but few people invest the time and energy necessary to learn from their mistakes. Often we are too busy basking in the glory of our triumphs to think through what we did right, or the pain of failure is sufficiently intense that many of us want to move on and put it behind us as soon as we can. Yet those who want to improve their chances of success can not afford to disregard the issue of why, despite seemingly equal levels of intelligence and education, some people succeed where others fail.
As many people say, how learners understand success and failure exerts an important influence on their level of achievement. There are several parameters according to which high achievers tend to differ from low achievers. These parameters are derived to motivation and performance referred to as attribution. The factors that contribute to success can be assigned into two categories, extrinsic and intrinsic.
