Suppose someone comes along, offering you an exciting alternative to the life you're living? Perhaps they show you a way to change it for the better, financially or personally, or better yet, both. Can you imagine yourself wondering "What if this works? What if I could grow and become more than I am today? What if I could live the life I've always wanted"?
If you believe nothing works except what you're doing, that's all you can ever hope to attain. Using that line to prove they're not cut out for greater success makes people hide behind the so-called security of their job, happy with it or not.
When an opportunity presents itself, people who accept their lot in life and are used to following the crowd, often feel as if they have no choice but to turn it down. They believe risktakers are destined to lose. Perhaps they have conditioned themselves to focus on negative results. Seldom focusing on the positive, the news media usually creates dramatic headlines out of failures and setbacks. By the time people reach adulthood, it's easier to believe in negatives than positives - noes rather than yeses.
What if you could change you life by changing your outlook? What if success is ade up more of attitude rather than aptitude? What if yeses come after noes? What if all you had to do was ask "What if?" to any life-enhancing idea you can think of? What if you make the decision to take the steps required to take full advantage of an idea, and go on your way toward accomplishing your dream or objective?
There are people all over the world who are living the life they want. They started their journey, often with much less going for them that you or I, essentially with one simple question: What if I really could change my life for the better by not letting no stop me?
"Success is connected with action. Successful people keep moving. They make mistakes, but they don't quit." Conrad Hilton.
Excerpts from YES! How Noes prepare you for the Yeses that shape your future. John Fuhrman
