Until you come to a point where you just don’t care about getting the approval of others, until you come to a point where you are not afraid of the pain of failure, you are not entirely free.
Unless you are willing to take a risk of being an embarrassment, you are not ready to succeed exceedingly. Great artists, creators, and entrepreneurs are men and women who placed themselves at the vulnerability of painful failure, ridicule, and embarrassment. They were ready for anything. As Helen Keller says, “Life is either a daring adventure or nothing”.
If you are still afraid of being afraid, you are not there yet. If you are still embarrassed about being embarrassed, you are not truly liberated. Being general and casual about life allows you to just be merely alive. You never blaze new traits, you never tread upon no go zones and push your own perceived limitations. You will die without ever having lived your life.
It is only
when you put yourself at risk, it is only when you just don’t care, it is only when you are ready to face the fear, and the pain of being ridiculous, that you become truly free and fully alive.
YOU WANT TO BE GREAT....? - LOOK FOR PROBLEM
Do you know what set billionaires apart from the average individuals? Well, I am going to tell you. Billionaires are problem solvers; not just any problem but complex problems. Billionaires became billionaires because they seek out problems that others don’t want to be involved with. They move in when others are fleeing; they buy when others are screaming “the sky is falling.”"The way to make money is to buy when blood is running in the streets." – John D. Rockefeller.
Critical problem solving is the ultimate reason why poverty-stricken individuals like Andrew Carnegie and Henry Ford rose to become billionaires. Take a look at the billionaires of today and you will see that they strive to solve problems that we don’t want to be associated with. Bill Gates and Larry Ellison are experts at solving software problems; Donald Trump is an expert at solving Real estate problems and George Soros, Sir John Templeton and Peter Lynch are experts at handling stock market volatility.
My dear readers,
What is your area of specialisation?
What problems are you good at solving?
If you are going to become a billionaire, then you must think like a billionaire and thinking like a billionaire entails that you must be good at solving other people’s problems.
So when others are screaming “stay away, it is not possible” you should instead be asking yourself; “what can I do to address the situation.” This pattern of thinking is called the process of “turning lead into gold” by the ancient alchemists.
So if you want to develop the mindset of billionaires; then become a critical problem solver and your financial status will never remain the same.
CLOSING CHARGE:
You are perfect in your imperfection
When your fire burns from within, nothing can quench your passion from the outside
Wipe your doubts, fears, feelings of insecurity and inadequacy. And see clearly to define your path to greatness.
Stretch out to reach for the future that lies within you.
May God Bless Your Thinking.
Go and Rule Your World.
Yours truly,
Tolu Ogunyemi
