Success Secret - Lesson 1

Hi Warriors,

I would like to share about the Success Secrets. Today we will start with Lesson 1.

Turning Failures To Opportunities: 3 Steps - by Vadim Kotelnikov

1. Get rid of all negative emotions - and lean: There is no failure, only feedback!

"I have not failed 700 times. I have not failed once. I have succeeded in proving those 700 ways will not work. When I have eliminated the ways that will not work, I will find the way that will work." - Thomas Edison

2. Go into a fresh-start mindset - more intelligently: Given the situation you are in now as a starting point, consider various options: what opportunities for and a roadmap to ultimate success can you see or imagine?

3. Take different views of the situation: Having looked at the scene from your view, look at it from different perspectives, try each of these views:

an optimist's view;

a pessimist's view;

an anarchist's view;

an architect's view;

a child's view;

a poet's view;

a strategist's view;

a competitor's view;

a customer's view;

a supplier's view;

Salvador Dali's view;

Charles Darwin's view.

"Failure is the opportunity to begin again more intelligently." Henry Ford

    Good ideas! It's a very smart idea to always stay positive and take in all feedback, good and bad, to lead to improvement!

    I like the idea of looking at your situation through numerous other views, and there really are some unique ones on this list!

      I think the idea of looking at things through a kid's view is the key.

      As kids, they are innocent and full of life. It is our opinions and our beliefs and our fears that we place on them as they grow up that inhibits their ability to become whatever success they started out here to live.

      This concept is explained in more detail in the book "The Four Agreements" by don Miguel Ruiz. This is an excellent read and I highly recommend everyone adding this to their personal success library.

  • An interesting list of ways of looking at something. Getting a different perspective is great, but sometimes we don't know how to see it from another POV. This is a great list of metaphors to use.
