I had to earn my way. The ocean is so magnificent, peaceful, and awesome. I never thought of myself as a cool guy. I always thought of myself as more of the goofy guy. People always want a little more. Here you go, that hyper-reality. I think that comes from my dad. I like to shoulder people up and carry them along, and then I end up creating some kind of dependency. I enable. Normally it will take me two weeks, until the very last minute and I have to say yes or no. For a couple of weeks, I will tune everyone out who is giving me advice, so that I can make a clear decision on my own and it takes time.
It represents too much to too many people. I want to be the guy behind the guy. If you do, no matter what, you win. Giving up is not an option and people should understand it if they want to do something unique.
Thanks a lot for writing this motivational article. I love this quote and I am thrilled by the examples. I agree that our mind deceives into believing there are limitations. Only when we believe in possibility thinking and act on it without fear and wholesome passion, do we achieve the impossible. Hi Ikechi, Thanks a lot for your comment! Often, people tell me that life cannot possibly be that simple. I believe that it can. Some people are not prepared to hear that idea and think that it is overly simplistic.
But some of the more simple ideas can hold great power and effectiveness. The mind does deceive us into thinking that there are limitations and blocks because it does not play well with discomfort and uncertainty. But, if we make taking action and thinking and doing from the energy of possibility, we have a better chance. Belief in self, believing that the job or task is THE thing for you, hope, positive thoughts, and getting down to do it, is all it takes to conquer the mountain of impossibility.
This is perhaps the same thing as mentioned in the previous para. The moment we become emotional and begin associating ourselves with the results, we have feelings of anxiety, nervousness, negative self-beliefs, and even fear. They weaken our force, make us doubtful, and make us stray from our objective path.
On the other hand, if you have the ruthless, killer-instinct, and determination, you are more probably to make things possible. But too much of aggressive and mechanical approach can be deadly and dangerous. As you mention, passion is essential, which you can call as intense emotions. That makes you a human with a robot like go-getter person.
Combine it with karma and it all turns out to be a powerful carbine! Great post! Hi Vinay, Thanks a lot for your excellent comment! I really appreciate the kind words. I like the idea of removing the self from a difficult project to make the work objective. The version that I heard before is to make Impossible into I am possible. But this is a new way of looking at it for me and it encapsulates the ancient wisdom of detaching from the outcome.
I think that detachment from difficult work is highly effective and required for success. As you mention, we may have a tendency to think and feel away from our goals if we remain too attached to a particular outcome. This goes nicely with the idea that tunnel visioning choices at the early stages of work is not a very effective option.
I like your choice of words: determination and endurance. Such a powerful combination to move fearlessly ahead in life. I totally agree with what you mention about karma. It is that karma and detachment that people find hard to implement. Because we love our theories and ways, action and detachment sounds like a difficult practice.
But with some determination and letting go, I believe it is achievable. Yes, I agree that all the negative emotions begin creeping in when we get overly attached to the outcome. We dread any other possibility because it does not seem quite as good as the perceived idea of what we think our results look like. There is great wisdom in what you say because it is precisely this reason that people stop and begin doubting and fearing and second guessing their beliefs and ideas.
Often, under the sway of negative emotions, one may forget that there are other possibilities and options available. They are simply waiting in the horizon biding their time and waiting for a signal of approval. I think your 5 P formula is awesome! You have included all the necessary elements required for an excuse free and a possibility filled life. Every single component you mention is essential for a possibility mindset and I like the way it has all come together!

I keep pushing the sculptors to add more detail or facial expressions; and development teams to try new techniques, like embroidery or lighting.
Since I work in mixed media, it is a challenge for molding, shrinkage and assembly.
