10 Mindsets of Successful Christians

1. Are focused. Like Paul we must keep our eyes on our end goal.

Prov. 4:25 Let your eyes look directly forward, and your gaze be straight before you.

2. Keep learning. Only a fool believes he knows everything.

Prov. 9:9 Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning.

3. Don’t complain. Complaining doesn’t solve problems. Concentrate on finding solutions.

Phil. 2: 14-15 Do all things without murmurings and disputings:

That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;

4. Learn from failure. Successful people take risks and if they fail they learn and try again.

Prov. 24:16 For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief.

5. Set goals. They know what they want and are persistant in achieving them.

Prov. 21:5 “The plans of the diligent lead to profit as surely as haste leads to poverty.”

6. Never give up. There will be challenges but when things get tough they stay strong.

2Chron. 15:7 Be ye strong therefore, and let not your hands be weak: for your work shall be rewarded.

Gal 6:9 And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

7. Associate with people who can help them. Find mentors from whom they can learn. People who know the route that they must travel.

Prov. 27:17 Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.

Prov. 13:20 Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm.

8. Are people with integrity. They are reliable and keep their promises. They do not lie.

Prov. 10:9 Whoever walks in integrity walks securely, but he who makes his ways crooked will be found out.

Prov. 12:22 Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord, but those who act faithfully are his delight.

9. Are thankful. They express their gratitude every day.

Eph. 5:20 Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

10. Are Passionate. They give their all.

Col. 3:23 And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord
