The Attitudes of Success: 10 Powerful Habits of Successful, Confident Women by Sarah J Collins

August 24, 2019 Melanie Hawken
Sarah-Collins-Collage.jpg

In Sarah J Collins’ book, The Attitudes of Success: 10 Powerful Habits of Successful, Confident Women, she shows you how to think positively, act positively, and make success a daily habit, all traits needed in the world of entrepreneurship.


Success is an attitude. Are you ready to elevate yours? Women who reach the top of their game do so by developing an attitude of success. Attitude is everything, and your attitude determines your potential to succeed. Are you able to command a room and fill it with your presence? Do you constantly find yourself taking on too much and feeling unable to say no? Are your thoughts about yourself letting you down? 

In The Attitudes of Success: 10 Powerful Habits of Successful, Confident Women by Sarah J Collins, each chapter contains examples of the methods employed by successful women. The book provides you with the inspiration and encouragement you need to achieve your own success, as well as showing you through actionable strategies in the ‘Try This’ section how you can go about achieving them yourself.

Author quotes

Successful women have developed the right attitude to succeed, and powerful women have developed the right attitude to lead.

In this book you will learn that women who are successful are simply doing things differently. The unbelievable truth is that although these successful women do things differently, they share and adopt remarkably similar attitudes, and following their example will mean success for you, too.

We each have the potential to succeed in whatever we put our minds to if we learn how to develop and adopt the habits and attitudes of successful women.

About the author

Sarah J. Collins is a creative entrepreneur, marketing specialist, designer and teacher. Having lived, worked, and coached people across three different continents and from 70 countries, she has experienced firsthand the habits and attitudes that have helped women from all around the world to create personal and career success. Sarah has also worked with huge corporations such as Proctor and Gamble and Henkel and won several noteworthy awards for her work. Her main goal is to share her success strategies and make them accessible, practical and instantly applicable for women everywhere.

Why LoA loves it….

Everyone dreams of success, and striding out there confidently in the world of business. But confidence is not something that comes naturally to everyone. Creating the right attitude and putting in place the necessary success habits is key.  Sarah J Collins’ new book, The Attitudes of Success, is a great guide for all those women entrepreneurs who want to gear themselves up for success in all aspects of their lives and businesses, but need a little help and direction to achieve their goals. --- Melanie Hawken, founder and editor-in-chief of Lionesses of Africa
