THINK POSITIVE TOWARD
PEOPLE IS THE BASIC rule for winning success. Let's mark it in the mind and
remember it. The rule is: Success depends on the support of other people. The
only hurdle between you and what you want to be is the support of others.
💭 A Story on Success, People & Positive Thinking 💭
Many years ago, a young man, ambitious and full of dreams, went to his mentor with a heavy heart.
"I work so hard," he said, "but success always feels just out of reach. What am I missing?"
The mentor looked at him quietly, then replied:
"You’re forgetting one truth—success doesn’t happen in isolation. It depends on people. Their support, their trust, their willingness to walk with you. Without them, your climb will always be harder."
The young man frowned. "But how do I make people support me? I can’t force anyone to stand by my side."
The mentor smiled knowingly. "You don’t need to force. You only need to think right toward people. When you think positively about others—when you choose to see the good instead of the flaws—they feel it. And in return, they give you their respect, their trust, and their support."
He then leaned in and shared three truths that stayed with the young man forever:
1️⃣ No one is perfect. Every person makes mistakes—big and small. If you only focus on what’s wrong, you’ll find endless reasons to dislike. But if you choose forgiveness, you’ll discover strengths worth admiring.
2️⃣ Everyone has the right to be different. Some will think differently, believe differently, even live differently than you. That doesn’t make them wrong. It just makes them human. Respecting differences is the first step to building real connections.
3️⃣ Don’t be quick to reform others. Most people don’t want to be told they’re wrong. Sometimes love means keeping your opinion to yourself, and simply letting them be. That patience can build bridges stronger than any argument ever will.
The mentor paused, then said softly:
"If you let your mind wander, you’ll always find faults in people. But if you discipline your heart, you’ll find light in even the most imperfect souls. And when people feel seen, respected, and valued, they will carry you higher than you could ever climb alone."
The young man sat in silence, his eyes heavy with realization. Success wasn’t just about skill, talent, or hard work. It was about people. About kindness. About learning to think positively, even when it’s easier to criticize.
And that night, he wrote in his journal:
"No person is all good. No person is all bad. But if I choose to see the good in others, I will never walk alone on my journey to success."
✨ The lesson: Success grows where respect, kindness, and positive thinking toward people are planted.
Note this
simple but key fact: No person is all good and no person is all bad. The
perfect person just doesn't exist.
Now, if we let our thinking go uncontrolled, we can find much to dislike in almost anyone. By the same token, if we manage our thinking properly; if we think right toward people, we can find many qualities to like and admire in the same person.
