Morning Motivator - Increase Your Failures

"Would you like for me to give you a formula for success, it is really quite simple. Double your rate of failure."
- Thomas J Watson, founder of IBM

So you want to be MORE successful? You want to GENERATE more income? You seek to ENHANCE your position in the community? All sounds nice... but HOW?!

Education always helps. Mentors also give an ADVANTAGE. The BEST way to become more successful is to just go out and get "kicked in the teeth" a few times. Not literally of course...

What I'm REFERRING to is the experiencing FAILURE. When you have a greater volume of failures in your experience, by design, you will also have a greater volume of ACCOMPLISHMENTS. As a PERFECTIONIST, I am challenged with failure. On occasion, I can even be PARALYZED by the fear of failure. Sometimes so much that, it causes a "miss" of OPPORTUNITY.

2 DEGREE SUCCESS STEP:
How do you overcome? Simple... Take it in PERSPECTIVE.

In baseball, a 30% lifetime success rate in batting will get you in the Hall of Fame.

Most graduates are "C" students. C grade level is 70% accomplishment.

When you consider that most of the world's BEST ACHIEVERS are at most 70% accomplished, while the PREMIERE athletes of the world are excellent at 30%... Why EXPECT yourself to be 100%??

Just relax... ENJOY the experience and education of FAILURES... They pave the path to your DREAMS!

Cheers,
Zach
