Are you a Hunter or a fisherman ?

Thanks to Kaustubh for sending in this one : really a point to think about !!

"Success is not to be pursued; it is to be attracted by the person you become."

For instance, ask yourself a question - Are you a hunter or a fisherman? It’s not actually about hunting and fishing .. but the analogy that hunting and fishing provides us as it relates to success in general - leadership and influence specifically.

Generally there are two kinds of people: those who hunt (and are constantly tracking down success), and those who fish (or let success and leadership come to them).
So with this analogy. Fishing is about attraction. It is about magnetically having success and influence come to you. When you are hunting, everything just runs away!

How do you fish rather than hunt?

Good question. Fishing is all about presenting great bait. So what is the bait? --- YOU YOURSELF!

That is why personal development is so important. The more we improve, the more attractive we become to others and to success ! We should make it an everyday goal to develop ourselves and improve so as to become the best people we can be. As we do that, we will begin to see success come our way with less effort than if we just sat in the same old spot personally all the time.

Become a fisherman of success and influence.

Stop Chasing success... Attract it!
