As your confidence builds, your self-motivational energy toward the project will grow also.

2. Persistence

Another word for persistence is "keep-trying ness or never quitting easy. A persistent attitude is a trait that can be developed, just as a weight lifter can strengthen a muscle, or a runner can develop endurance by running. Persistence can be developed by refusing to quit at the first signs of defeat or opposition. With each victory you achieve you will develop the attitude of persistence.

3. Assertive Self-Starter

small. Just start where you stand. Be Observant - Don't just look at things, see them, see the details. That's often the difference between the amateur and the professional. The professional is able to see the details of a problem the amateur can't. Because of this ability to observe more of the details, society gives the respect, money and many other rewards to the professional.

The self-starter thinks in the present. The self-starter thinks in the now? For truly, that's all we have. As the saying goes, yesterday is gone and tomorrow is not her yet. All we have is now to do good, to improve our world or help others.

5. Independence
