S – Basically, “S” represents the “See What Happens” people in the 97% crowd.
We’ve all encountered them. They don’t plan out their days. They don’t take control of their lives. They’ve never set a goal before, and if they did, they gave up on it at the first sign of adversity. Instead, they just sit back and see what happens. That’s their answer for everything is “I’ll just see what happens”. The results in their life are basically dependent on everything and everyone else in the world except for them. That’s no way to live your life!
A great example of this mentality deals with people that read horoscopes. “Well, my horoscope has been telling me for the last six months that I’d be experiencing some challenges and setbacks. John, I just can’t move forward because it says so in the alignment of the planets. There’s nothing I can do!” Excuse my language, but that is such a bunch of crap.
You know what a horoscope is? It’s a horror scope. Yes, a HORROR SCOPE! I have personally coached people that use their horror scopes to explain why they can’t gain active control over their lives. It’s an excuse not a reality! They’re using their horror scope as justification for not living the life they want to live. Being a passive bystander in your own life will never lead to the achievement of your goals and dreams.
You might as well be living someone else’s life. Well, actually, you are, if you’re allowing your life to be completely controlled by outside influences.
You know what’s better than a horror scope? How about developing a vision scope? A vision scope is the best kind of scope out there. When you look through your vision scope, you are able to look forward. You don’t look back at the past. You don’t let your present results dictate where you’re headed. You decide what you want and choose to stay focused on your vision. Doesn’t that make a lot more sense than using a horror scope? It’s your life, why not make the most of it?
Lose the “See What Happens” mentality.
Join the 3% crowd and develop the Stickability attitude. Yes, that’s another “S” word for you. Actually, it’s a word that I completely made up that basically means that you must be persistent in pursuit of your goal and stick to it. Have you ever gotten a piece of gum on something? It’s nearly impossible to remove it. That’s how you have to be with your dream. Stick to it and be resistant to anything or anyone that tries to remove your belief in it. Your vision scope combined with stickability will guarantee your success!
The great Les Brown once said “Whatever is impossible is possible, for the impossible can be achieved.” When I heard that statement, it changed my life. It reconfirmed for me my decision to stick to following my heart’s desires. Everything in this world has a polar opposite. If something is impossible, it must also be possible. It wouldn’t be able to exist otherwise.
I was willing to be stuck….completely glued to my dream of becoming a fluent speaker. My family and friends told me I was losing my mind, because I wasn’t listening to what anybody said. They were right! I was losing the mind of a clinically diagnosed stutterer and gaining the mind of a champion. I refused to listen to the enemy even when they were right in my face. I stayed focused on my vision of being a great communicator and retiring to South Florida by the age of 30. Due to my vision and my stickability, I moved to South Florida at 29 years, 11 months, and 18 days of age as a millionaire speaker!
Your dream has more power hidden inside of it than you could even imagine. Things you could never even comprehend will occur when you remain focused and dedicated to your dream. You must be committed to your journey regardless of what anyone else says. Your dream really is that important. It’s YOUR dream. They can’t see it, but you can! If you can see it, you can achieve it! They can’t achieve it because they don’t see it, at least not yet. But when you achieve that goal, that’s when they’ll believe you. It’s not their fault. They just couldn’t see what you could see. You could explain it to them a million times, and they still probably wouldn’t see it.
