If your Attitude is right, the facts don’t matter

Most people get thrown off the minute they hear the facts before starting out a new Venture. So they talk their way out for the fear of failure and probably humiliation. Imagine, say you have a plan to start a small business of selling fishing lines. Now you share this idea with your close friends. Do you know what would they say, “Oh!, that field is already saturated, there are so many who are selling fishing hooks and lines, and how do you think you are going to make money?”

Now, with this kind of an input even the most confident man would lie down and perish. Do you know, no matter how saturated a field is, you can still become a success in the chosen area. The key is to just look out for ways that you could present solutions differently. In other words, do the same thing that your competitors are doing, but with a different packaging.

Even picking Trash offers opportunities

Everybody picking trash at KFC were paid 8 dollars an hour, but there was this guy who was paid 20 dollars an hour. Do you know why? Just like everyone else he too picked trash, but he did it in a different manner. That is, he whistled the most popular hit song during the trash picking process. In fact, people merrily waited for this guy to walk past them. Such was his charisma and popularity.

Then one fine day he came across a club owner who offered him an opportunity to entertain his guests. From then on there was no turning back. His popularity grew so much that he started rolling out his recordings with drum and guitar accompaniment, and very soon his artistic talent earned me record deals and business ventures.

Never discus ventures with friends

Of course had he requested an opinion as to what his friends had thought of him picking trash at the KFC ? For sure, he would have received tons of discouraging words. But luckily for him, he never requested his friends thoughts in his decision.

The bottom line is, no matter what the odds are out there for you to fail, if you have the right attitude, none of them matters. Remember when people say, “this is not possible”, they are putting themselves in those shoes and are visualizing the outcome. They have no idea as to what you are capable off.
