The 5 A's: Awareness. Attitude, Aptitude, Action and Altitude

When properly preparing to prevent poor performance, utilizing the 5 A's in your endeavors will give you the mindset for success. 
  
  The key to success is becoming aware that we are the creators of our life's story. Knowing, that nothing has control over our feelings, thoughts, actions, and responses but ourselves; and that we hold the power in our minds in the paths we choose to take, will set us up for success. 

  When we become aware of the power we hold our attitudes will change towards our surroundings and circumstances. The mindset of "I can't do something" becomes "I can", and you start to seek solutions to problems instead of dwelling on problems, or being part of the problems. There will be a confidence inside of you that no matter what obstacle, whether it is a faulty belief system or people who hate, you won't allow them to pull you down.

  Once you have achieved a level of awareness, and your attitude starts to change, your aptitude (natural ability and capacity to learning) will welcome all opportunities to develop your knowledge, skills, and abilities in all areas of your life. Opening your mind to listening helps to develop our understanding of our surroundings, and circumstances. You will learn that there are things that are simply out of our control, but always aware of things that are.

  Implementing the first 3 A's in your preparations will get you where you want to go with actions. No more talk, relying on others to do things for you, laziness, or blaming: but taking control of your own life and creating your own future and success. Only by your action on your part will anything happen. 

  Lastly, there is altitude. Practicing these skills will elevate your position in every aspect of your life. This allows you to excel past hurdles you never thought you could and managing your life around the foolish things that will come along.

  Applying the 5 A's takes an awareness of self that you have control over your attitudes in all situations and that you have aptitude for success. Putting plans into action is the only way to success in life and with perseverance altitude will have no bounds.
