"Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It is a very mean and nasty place and it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard you hit; it's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done. Now, if you know what you're worth, then go out and get what you're worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hit, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you are because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain't you. You're better than that!"
This is a quote from the movie Rocky Balboa.
WHAT TO DO WHEN THE WORLD AIN'T ALL SUNSHINE AND RAINBOWS
Now we know what not do do. Pointing the finger doesn't solve anything, unless we're pointing to a responsible person who is not only admitting failure, but offers a genuine solution to a problem. Let me ask you... How much did you see that happen?
I'm not saying you shouldn't put your trust in other people, but if anything life has taught me is that you can't put your trust in other people. It sounds way more bitter than it is actually...
But what you should have realized by now is that life presents you only withproblems challenges that you can handle.
So you gotta fight, right?
Naturally you might feel pumped up by Rocky's speech and are ready to fight. But let me tell you that the world has much more experience in trading blows than you have had. So you just can't go in there and expect to win without any tools at hand.
So what is your greatest weapon you possess, when you're broke in a monetary matter, when you have trouble coming your way and everything seems to be against you? Is it your friends and family that either:
- might feel annoyed with you wallowing in self-pity
- offer comforting words
- ignore your problems and make you feel unimportant unintentionally
No!
It's all you.
To be specific: It is your mind!
CREATING SUNSHINES AND RAINBOWS WITH YOUR MIND
I noticed, that most of my favorite books as well as movies implement the idea of mind over matter - not so much in sense of psychokinesis, but in responsibility assumption.
The power of the mind are main topics in movies like The Matrix as well asWhat the BLEEP do we know?
Currently I'm reading the book Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill. It's a book I actually have in my possession for quite some time, but just started recently to read. It's a classic text and recommended by many entrepreneurs, business owners, CEOs and rich men and women all over the world. Although released in 1958, its content still applies to modern times. The reason for that is the focus on the primary components for success. You're right: The mind!
However the usefulness of this book heavily depends on the reader. If a reader comes into this book seeking help in a work from home business like the Empower Network , they'll find it. If a reader comes into this book looking for advice for how to get over a rough situation in life, they'll find it. If a reader gets the book needing a confidence booster for making a difficult professional leap, they'll find it.
