A limited mindset will automatically limit your opportunities. Here's why you need to be MORE open minded!
What if I told you that you have over one million opportunities to make over a million dollars this year? Would you stop to listen?
Would you try to figure out which opportunities would work best with your strengths? If I had a list of jobs that you could work that could turn you into a multimillionaire, would you take a look at it?
Of course you would! You wouldn’t hesitate. You’d scroll down that list and check off the jobs that you knew you could do. You’d be checking so many jobs, it’d feel like you were creating your Amazon wish list.
So why don’t people do this in real life? Well, part of it is because most people don’t know where to start and how to begin. Most people know about what they lack and how bad they are at doing most things but most people don’t invest into what they’re good at doing.
Gambling on Yourself? Hmmm…
The funny thing about people is that they’ll bet on things they can’t control but they’re scared to bet on things that they have complete control of. For instance, if the lottery reached $500M USD, you would have everyone (including me) come out of the woodwork to purchase a lottery ticket. Do you realize how quickly the lottery grows as the pot gets bigger?
First off, do you know the chances of you winning the lottery? Well let’s compare a few stats and see what you think. The chances of winning the lottery versus the chances of turning a profit with a business that you create:
Chances of winning the lottery: 1 in 175 million
In conventional terms it can take two to three years to be profitable in a new business opportunity or career.
Which one are you going to bet on? Well the majority of the population will try to go for the big instant money and pray and hope that they’re the one in 175 million that will cash in millions.
And that right there lies the problem.
Most people will put all their (emotional) decision making into wanting a quick fix for a long term problem.
Never mind the fact that they will spend endless amounts of money on lottery tickets over the course of those two to three years with nothing to show for.
Building for the Long Haul
But what if you were able to build a business that pays you handsomely? What if you were able to create something that was an extension of who you were and something that you strongly believed? What if you didn’t become a millionaire in two to three years but you became financially free and you didn’t have to look at price tags every time you purchased something?
What’s the price you have to pay to have that kind of mindset?
Here’s the thing, most people are missing opportunities that are coming to them everyday. They miss them because they’re not focused on how to maximize the qualities they have.
And I’m not talking about qualities attained by getting a degree at school. I’m talking about the intangibles that were given to you that you’re extremely good at doing - naturally.
Do You Know What You’re Good At?
Most people don’t know their strengths but if you were to ask them what they’re weaknesses are, they have no problems telling you them. Recently I was asked by a group of people what my weaknesses were and I told them this:
I don’t have any weaknesses. I refuse to focus on them. I have strengths that I bring to the table that help me to be an expert in my area and they help me to help others become great. I know what I’m good at doing - I don’t care what I lack. Whatever I lack, I’ll find someone who’s great at doing and connect with them and get them on my team.
Yes. I said that. Why? Because it’s the truth. That’s what successful people do. They don’t give a damn about what they lack, they simply appoint someone who’s good at what they lack and they make sure that person is a beast in that area. They assign them duties to do what they do best and they let them have at it.
Thus it looks like successful people have no weakness when in actuality they're smart enough to hire someone who’s the beast at what they lack.
Never Bypass an Opportunity Unless…
We are all presented opportunities that could help us improve our income situation but many times we shun them because we’re scared of the unknown or we don’t have enough information about them. Or worst yet, we don’t want to work hard for it.
First off, you must know your strengths. You must know what you’re good at doing. You’re not going to be good at everything and that’s okay. You don’t need to be good at everything. Someone who’s a Jack of All Trades is a Master or None.
Be someone that’s known for a particular thing. And stop worrying about others who are doing the same thing that you’re doing.
Listen, whatever you’re doing is going to have thousands of other experts in your field. How do you separate from everyone in your field? You must know your strengths. Click on this link and take 15-minutes of your time to figure out what your strengths are.
Keep an Open Mind
The best way to maximize any opportunity is to keep an open mind. You can achieve whatever you set your mind to but you must keep an open mindset. Your broke friends can’t help you become successful because doing something on your own is far different than having a 9-5 job.
Keeping an open mind on new opportunities will save you from judging books by their cover. It also opens your mindset to trying new things within the business once you get started.
When you get good enough at any business and you find your success formula, that’s when it becomes fun. That’s when the money starts rolling in and that’s when you feel accomplished.
What is your success formula? Because I can tell you right now, buying lottery tickets is not the answer. Figure out how to build something that works with your strengths and you’ll have a much better chance to achieve success over the long haul.
