How will I accomplish this? Vs. Why I am not good enough?

The person who asks the first question will live completely different life than the person who asks the later. It is all how you thnk and what type of attitude you use that can make hell of difference...

#“how” #â€œhowâ€ #power

Yeah, I definitely agree, Code..

As simple as this sounds, 80% of time should be spent on the "how", instead of the actual situation (end goal, etc.).

Whenever I have strong feelings about something that aren't positive, I always find them alleviating when you work towards the solution with the right questions.. "How can I feel better about what I'm doing?" "What could I focus on to make this a positive experience?"

  thanks for replying, yeah I agree 80 percent of the time should be spent on how to go about getting to your goals and doing something to get there. Spend to much time in other stuff that does not help us

Answering "how" puts us in a place of power vs the latter which is simply needy.

Totally agree. Having that positive mentality that it CAN be done and figuring out the proper method to getting it done. It gives you that mental edge that many people do not have, and rejects listening to conventional wisdom that says things CANNOT be done.

That is right. You have to think positive. If you dwell yourself in thinking about negative things, more likely the results are going to be such. No matter how difficult things might look like, always strive to think of how you can overcome it.

The word HOW comes to everyones mind after a determination of goal.But if we consciously put the question to ourself,the mind will have an orientation for goal even if we have not so strong determination.

  Are you saying that asking "How will I accomplish this?" is procrastination? Lots of people ask that question and then go and do it. The procrastinator is the person who asks how to do it and then doesn't do it!
  
  I'm pretty sure that with these matters you'll eventually you'll do it when the pain of doing it is less than the pain of not doing it. When you get to that point the important thing is make the pain of doing it as bearable as possible. At this point, asking "How" questions becomes extremely important

  I agree with Frankm, asking how does not mean your procrastinating, asking "Why I am not good enough" shows lack of confidence and that person seems to be already accepting defeat.

  Interestingly, "why I am not good enough" is not even a question... but it might even be better written this way because people who say this are usually looking for excuses and ways to convince themselves that they're not good enough.
  
  They don't say "Why am I not good enough?"... they say "I'm not good enough because..."

  Totally agree, I understood what he was getting at, but you are right when people question themselves they are already dooming themselves to failure..kinda of a self full-filling prophecy?

When I am attracted with something that can change my entire life, I ask myself with the word "How". I simply think positive of doing it, no matter what the outcome is. Just go for it then, give it a best shot!
