The Truth About Your Mistakes

The mistakes of your past are not who you are now. No matter what you've done in your life you have a second chance that starts today. It is your time to choose who you will be and who you will become for the rest of your life. You are certainly not too old or too poor or too busy to add value to the world, to give, create or inspire. If you need to, let the past go and start fresh, right here, right now.
Use Robert Ringer's "Power Equation" from his essay today to turn your mistakes and obstacles into opportunity.
Craig Ballantyne
Attitude and desire contribute the most to achievement. Check yours. Are they right for what you want in your life? Believe in yourself and never give up.

The Power Equation

By Robert Ringer

Talk about lucky. I shudder to think that but for the luck of the draw, I could have been born Garfield the Cat instead of a human being. I can't tell you how happy I am that I have a human brain. Even more important, I have free will, and the only limitations on that free will are those that I choose to impose on it.

Good news: You, too, have been blessed with free will. And because of this unique human gift, you need not be stifled by "adversity," "problems," or "obstacles." Each of these is, in fact, nothing more than a language-based way of referring to a fact or set of facts. Through free will, you have the capacity to intellectualize, plan, conceptualize, and find creative ways to negate adversity, solve problems, and overcome obstacles.

What I'm talking about here is resourcefulness. Resourcefulness is what I like to refer to as an "expansive mental paradigm." All this fancy term means is that when you take action, particularly bold action, the boundaries of what you believe to be possible (your belief system) expand. Which, in turn, gives you the capacity to consider new ideas, new possibilities, and new concepts that you previously thought to be impossible (i.e., outside the boundaries of your mental paradigm).

The motor of resourcefulness is action, and what unleashes action is an individual's willingness to make mistakes – even to look foolish or stupid. Remember the ad where Michael Jordan said that he missed something on the order of twenty-two game-winning shots? He then added, "I succeed because I fail."

I think a good definition of an entrepreneur might be "a person who makes a living finding ways to overcome problems and obstacles." And a good definition of a successful entrepreneur could be "a person who becomes well off by finding ways to turn problems and obstacles into opportunities."

When you take action, you don't need to worry about making mistakes, because it's already set in stone: You will make mistakes. And, guess what? You'll also make them if you don't take action. The only difference is that when you take action, you're on your way to accomplishing your objectives. I say on your way, because action puts you in a position to learn from, and correct, your mistakes as you go along. On the other hand, inaction is likely to flood your mind with stressful "what ifs" and have you scratching your head in confusion.

When you play the "what if" game, you demonstrate that you are afraid of failure. That has never been Bill Gates' problem, because his strategy was always to get Microsoft's software out to the public as quickly as possible, bugs be damned... and then, down the road, figure out how to deal with the bugs and the predictable customer backlash. The biggest Microsoft haters would have to admit that this strategy didn't work out too badly for Bill & Friends.

If you succeed at converting action and resourcefulness into habits, the combination results in enormous personal power. These two habits can offset – even overwhelm – almost anything and everything you do wrong. They are so important that I suggest you pin the following formula on your wall – and make it a point to send me 10 percent of the earnings you reap by employing it:

ACTION + RESOURCEFULNESS = POWER.

Hubert Senters is an entrepreneur in the "old school" mode. He left college in 1994 to launch his own mobile on-site fleet maintenance company, providing preventative maintenance and repair work for large and small companies. By the time he was bought out by a leading national oil company, Hubert was managing 32 employees and earning $4.8 million dollars a year in revenue. While he grew his company, Hubert also joined the high-risk world of internet day trading. By the time he sold his fleet, he was trading online full time, and hasn't stopped since. In 2000, he launched TradetheMarkets.com with John Carter. He often announces his trades in the website's trading chat room and has developed a loyal following due to his sharp insights, frank teaching style, and willingness to help others learn from him. Hubert has developed what he calls the "Senters squeeze i ndicator", which he uses on a daily basis to catch volatility and predict market direction. This tool has given him a reliable, consistent foundation for him to use his judgement in day trading. Hubert is focused on achieving a comfortable lifestyle, with enough money put away to enjoy life, family, and friends. He is focused on living the new American Dream.
