But I don’t know how

“But I don’t know how” is one of the poorest excuses in the world.

Worse still is “I’ve never been good at that” (whatever that is is unimportant).

I have an idea! If you know you’re not good at something why not try to improve yourself?! Now there’s a novel thought.

Can’t type? Get yourself a typing program and teach yourself.

Can’t spell? Get a tutor, or read more, or buy a dictionary.

Can’t add? Throw away your calculator and start to use your grey matter.

Neglecting to complete tasks or take on challenging roles because you don’t know how to do something is one of the greatest limits that you can impose upon yourself. There are already enough limitations in this world. Why add more? Why would you knowingly do it to yourself?

Try something new. Think outside the square that you live in. Be proactive. Listen to audio books, read, join clubs. Never stop improving!

I have a question…

What is the best sound in the world?

Yes, we’re off topic today.
I want your input.

Tunnel vision

Commonsense says “don’t put all of your eggs into one basket.”

Uncommonsense says “put all your eggs into one basket and watch that basket like a hawk.”

Diversification means a division of attention. It means complication. It means complexity. We already have too much complexity in our lives. Modern technology has made things busier rather than easier. It’s nothing like The Jetsons. We don’t need more complexity we need more simplicity.

Tunnel vision equals simplicity. Forget about all the superfluous stuff floating around the edges of your vision. Put the blinkers on. Focus unwaveringly on your ultimate vision, your ultimate goal.

Successful people have tunnel vision. They remove the waste and focus only on what they have to focus on. They don’t concern themselves with anything that does not contribute to their ultimate goal.
