The Positive Property will make a successful company

In 2015 New year is lightened.

Always we did as usual when New year started, people will make a plan and think over how to execute it well. These habits are almost same as both individuals and companies as well. For the individual he/she will make a quite simple-mindedly plan or wish and for the companies or other type organizations will make more systematical plan in their own way.

Although people says that ‘Plan' is a kind of 'rosy balloon' but the important thing is that the plan will be turned out no 'rosy balloon' and be a 'executable & realistic plan' if it have to set as a executable and then practice it to the end.

On the other hand I think that a certain range of every plan have to include a rosy plan inevitably. Because it's a kind of plan for individual's and company's future hope, it is natural that the future will assume positively and make a plan. In this point of view, the future plan(Short, middle and long-term Plan) has to be a type of plan included “Hope's Balloon”

The problem is that, if it's no plan which based on the reasonable positivity and also there is no real will to achieve the target, it's merely a plan of ‘rosy balloon'. In addition no matter how you set the plan well, if you do not execute it continuously and when you practice it if you do it without the revision and correction, it'll be a highest possibility to be a ‘rosy balloon'.

I'd like to introduce an example for the power of positive property. In Carnegie Technology University, for the only losers of 10,000 people in his/her lifetime, they did a sample survey for the research and analysis.

Before the research, the researcher thought that the reasons why the losers failed were generally “no enough knowledge”, “now enough skill”, “Inability”. However the research results says that the only 15 % of losers are lacked the person who is “no enough knowledge” and “now enough skill”, the rest of 85 % are failed the human relationships.

 Then they analyzed the reason why failed and how to make a relationship with others, the losers always had an negative mind and lifestyle. Otherwise the successful man had commonly an positive mind in their life.

Sean Archer as a famous of Happiness theory's lecture said in his book “ Happiness Advantage” which mentioned “The rates 2.9013 of Positivity and negativity” ( please refer to “Happiness Advantage” written by Sean Archer, translated by Park Seyeon, Chunglim Publisher ).

 Marshall Rosada, Psychologist and business consultant, confirmed from the various experiments and mathematical modeling and 2.9013 means that it can be found the rates of between the positive and negative in the successful business entrepeneurs. In other words, if the negative stimulus is accrued one time in the successful company, the positive stimulus is happened approx. 2.9 times. If the positive rates is lowered than 2.9013 times, we can forecast that the organization will be lowered the possibility of successful rates.

 Marshall Rosada emphasized that the company which the positive rates is below 2.9 can be changed from their efforts. To try the increase of the positivity can be achieved trough the mind change and training program which is emphasized the positive feedback and the importance of communication for the company's CEO,

 Sean Archer says that positivity for individual development is crucial points(Business's positive Tetris effect). At the same phenomena the understanding difference between the highly positive person and the deeply negative person is clear. To consider the aspect of future growth potential, the gap will be gradually appeared bigger.

  When two person talk each other, one of two look up the sky and say “ Today the shine is really beautiful.” however the other says, “ but it seems to expect the hot and humid weather.”. Anyway it's clear that two persons said the only truth, one person find the only positive aspects and the other search the negative points.

  As based on Sean Archer's analysis, he assume that the second person who is more sensitive for negative factors will be lost the opportunities for self-development and growth due to his/her native characters. The attitude to concentrate the negative property is actually to increase the stress, shrink the creativity and eagerness and therefore the possibility of success is highly decreased.

  Please keep in mind the word,“I'm smiling because of not being happy but because of smiling, I'm happy.” and “ We can be happy as much as we want to be happy.”says Abraham Lincoln.

In the New Year 2015, I wish all of you have a more positive mind and hope to make a wonderful and happy year

  Hope to have a happiness to you and your family
