Hi there my Friend,
Risk taking and risk mitigation is at the forefront of all of our business, personal, and life choices.
Yet, when we speak of decision making — we know that poor choices lead to poor outcomes and eventually to poverty and worse.
So as an avid Innovator, a serial Founder, and Entrepreneur — I know that the logical mind helps us take safe decisions, avoid risky moves, make rich choices, always trying to do what’s best in order to keep our businesses not only alive, but thriving, scaling and growing by leaps and bounds.
Indeed, as I have noticed — our collective logical mind loves to play it safe, as long as we stand on the right side of Business Management’s basic Growth Mindset, Cash Positive Position, and Market Share Capture.
But playing it “safe” does not create Unicorns.
Remember those early days of the StartUp going ballistic, and coursing through the sky as a shooting star ?
Yes, we all do recall, at least those of us who have had the privilege to experience that.
Yet, our ordinary playing it safe — certainly does not skyrocket our profits, nor does it build dream businesses.
It certainly does not escalate random relationships to Love, nor does it make you leap out of bed and dance a jiggle, excited for the day ahead.
Playing it safe does not even get the dog to wag his tail…
Because our logical mind is boring, and can even be the very thing that hold us back from getting growth, from scaling up our business, and from making more money.
Our safe bets, and poor choices keep us from being happier.
Our choices are what keeps us from having the relationships that elevate us to the level of Masterminds, and that make us want to dance for joy, amongst the successful folks all around us.
Its a party out there but unfortunately we are not invited, because we are playing it safe, and in other words, we allow our logical monkey mind, to keep us stuck, in the land of “good enough” if not the country of “just scrapping by.”
As I said to all of my StartUppers, as a way of encouragement: “Poor Choices lead to Poverty.”
Why?
Because your logical mind is obsessed with what’s realistic, tangible and achievable right in front of your own nose.
Right?
Yes, because this monkey mind logic, instinctively tells you to aim for what you know that you can achieve, and to chew that which you can digest; because that seems to be the smart thing to do.
Right?
But the problem is that greatness isn’t realistic.
It’s bold, it’s a little outrageous, and it definitely is hairy, but one thing it is not — is acting rational.
That’s why the great accomplishments and the great goals are always called HAIGs. HAIGs standing for Hairy, Awesome, Impossible, Goals.
So, how about trying something new like that ?
Be my guest, because if you want to achieve something awesome, like building the New SuperSonic Concorde airplane, you need to scale your imagination of what you can achieve to a new big open sky, with NO LIMITS written across the blue dome of the sky by a sky writing Flyer.
And if you understand that causing breakthroughs and building the business, and the life you’ve always dreamed of — all it takes sometimes is to loosen the grip of your logic monkey mind, just a bit, so that you can allow your Life to soar sky high.
So start dreaming, and start acting well beyond what’s merely possible in your mind’s eyes.
Let yourself dream without the constraints of “how,” “where,” and “why.”
Do this and remember my words…
Because, who knows, what you might just find ?
Maybe the life and success you’ve always wanted is just on the other side waiting for you.
Yours,
Dr Churchill
PS:
Faith in the impossible made possible, is what I suggest here, but having said that — I must caution you, that sometimes, most often Faith is its own reward, and it meets all of our needs.
Cheers, to You, and your magnificent success.
