Dear
lovely people,
One
of my best quotes is from Thomas A. Edison who said “The reason most people do not
recognize an opportunity when they meet it is because it usually goes around wearing
overalls and looking like Hard Work”
I
have been telling people that they need to wrestle with the opportunities that
life offers in order to make it big. Truth be told, you don’t really have to be
a wrestler per say in order to succeed, but you do have to wrestle–with your
self-discipline and desires, with your passions and attitude, with your beliefs
and spirituality. That is ‘smart work’
which is different from Edison’s ‘hard
work’
Get
it straight! If you want to work smart, you have to first of all be smart. It
means that if you want to create value in the creative society
of today, your brain muscle must be as strong as possible. You have to constantly train your
brain muscle and challenge it to new levels because both the analytical and the
creative part of your brain are very important for your eminent success.
Many
people say that opportunity comes to those who are lucky, how misleading
that is, I think that's completely wrong. Opportunity comes to you, me and
just anybody. It stars you right in the face every single day you wake up from bed
but it’s up to you and you alone to see it! Grab it! Wrestle it to the
ground.
…and when good things start happening, they will say "you got lucky," but you'll know better. If you're ready, itching inside, to live the life of your dreams, to create a long term stable investment that grows and grows, and pays and pays, then...NOW is the only time.
