Thinking different is about looking at the current environment,
interdependently assessing the direction of progress, making an
independent decision to be in the path of progress and allowing that
progress to propel you to success.
Are your results being limited by your thinking?
Thinking differently is more than just a concept. It is a mind
set. A mind set that usually does not equate to conventional
wisdom. Conventional wisdom = playing it safe. Not to knock
conventional wisdom, but if conventional wisdom was the key to
success and prosperity then everyone would be successful and
prosperous. In reality, that is not the case. If you think (and
do) what everyone else is doing, you’ll receive (and get) what
everyone else is getting. Does that prospect scare or excite you?
Those individuals and companies that challenge the commonly accepted
way of thinking set a path for others to follow while blazing ahead
to success not afraid or stifled by competition but by taking what
is available, tweaking it to their use, and moving forward.
How would you have liked to own
stock in a typewriter company just as computers were being
developed? How about newspaper stocks before the internet, or Yahoo
before Google? Now, fast forward 10, 20, 30 years from today -
would you rather own stock in an oil company (pick any one) of today
or a battery company of tomorrow. That’s a tough call right now.
In the future, we’ll have the ability to look back and say that “we
saw the signs” one way or the other. Thinking different is about
looking at the current environment, interdependently assessing the
direction of progress, making an independent decision to be in the
path of progress and allowing that progress to propel you to your
desired results.
Are you thinking conventionally
and hoping for a different outcome? Is your Realtor thinking
differently for you? Your Attorney, Your CPA, Your financial
advisor? Are their goals for you (and your money) the same as your
goals?
