“I Can Accomplish Anything!”

Posted by JasperP on August 19th, 2008

SuccessKey1.jpgI had an interesting conversation with a friend over lunch today and it kind of made me realize a few things about having the proper mindset.  I was talking to her about my business and how I promoted products and services.  She said she wished she could start a business too, but she said she’s not business minded.  I was telling her reasons why she could do it and I think she understood my point.

Now I know business is not for everyone, but I really believe if you put your mind into it, you can accomplish anything.  I knew that my friend played high school sports before and I knew how strenuous that can be.  Competing in sports is a great example of accomplishing a difficult task.  In sports, you have to tell yourself to physically compete with other players who also want to win.  You have to mentally drive yourself to exhaustion to endure the physical pain to accomplishing your goal of winning.

This relates to having a positive mindset. If you think you CAN do it, you’re right.  If you think you CAN’T do it, you’re also right.

My proposition is this: Start telling yourself you can accomplish anything.  Be a problem solver.  Ask yourself, “How do I do ______?”  Stop thinking, “I can’t do it” or “This is too hard” or “I quit”.  Once you start believing that you can accomplish anything, you can apply it to all sorts of things that don’t involve business.

  • Want to learn to play a musical instrument?
  • Want to play a sport?
  • Want to learn how to build something?
  • Want to make money online?
  • Want to start a business?

Believe in what you’re doing, push through the obstacles and you’ll eventually reach your goal.  Failure is not a point at which you stop, it’s a lesson in changing your approach.

I’d love to hear stories of business or non-business accomplishments you’ve had.

What have you accomplished lately?
