1. Enthusiasm- having a positive attitude will go a long way toward facilitating your search. Surround yourself with as many positive people as you can.

2. Patience- you will need to be able to deal with frustration and negative people. Patience is a virtue in these situations, especially when you deal with bureaucrats.

3. Dedication- it is important to dedicate yourself to seeing it all the way through, no matter what the outcome. Even if you don’t find the person, you will know you did everything you could.

4. Discipline-commit to being disciplined in your work. You will only have to answer to yourself, so self discipline is necessary to finishing your quest.

5. Be open to suggestion-it may be tempting to insulate yourself from outside influence, but that would be a mistake. Being too emotionally attached may make you miss something obvious. Stay open to suggestion and willing to share your search with others.

6. Perseverance-Some people will not want to talk to you and you will need to persevere. This does not mean to be intrusive or confrontational; it means that if you find someone blocking you, you will need to keep looking for a way around that block.

7. Picture yourself succeeding-this will keep you encouraged and will make it easier to stay on track.

8. Trust your common sense-if you feel you are being misled or should follow a certain trail because it makes the most sense to you, then trust that.

9. Commitment even when you are not getting results-sometimes you have to back up, go another route or just keep pushing.

10. Acceptance of the results when you succeed-these may be negative or positive but they will be your results and you will need to accept them either way. Making peace with whatever happens is essential.

The right attitude goes a long way to ensuring you have a successful search.
