That Gap Between SUCCESS And FAILURE
So sorry for this boring breaking news: It is NOT a fact that there is a HUGE gap between SUCCESS and FAILURE. YES for outliers. NO for most of the time. In fact, studies proved that Gap Between SUCCESS And FAILURE is as minuscule as you could think about. To quantify it based on studies, most of the time, that GAP is approximately 5%, i.e. 5% MORE effort OR or LESS effort. And to put things in the right perspective, let us NOT gloss over the fact that famous successful names like Steve Job, Henry Ford and Thomas Edison all have one thing in common. They all FAILED in the past. And if we go through their memoirs, they will detail out their chronic and recurring FAILURES before they hit paydirtπ§π§π§
And WHAT's most intriguing is that studies show that in most cases, the GAP between SUCCESS and FAILURE is NOT as wide as the Red Sea. In fact, to inject a number, the studies pegged it to somewhere 5% MORE or LESS. HOW and WHERE do we map that 5% GAP may be challenging from a macro level but if one will do a post-mortem, it could be those quite small variables that turned out to be the GAME-CHANGERπ¦π¦π¦
From a 'helicopter view' of things, the difference between SUCCESS and FAILURE could likely be having that POSITIVE MINDSET that will put you on the right path forward. You just have to find out WHICH road you want to thread and HOW to get through that FINISH LINE, which from the outset may seem elusive and quite a wild shot to attempt hitting it. YES, it has to do with MINDSET and that's everything in itπ₯π₯π₯
All things being equal, it is even immaterial if you are somebody struggling from the Third World OR someone WHO's on top of his game in Wall Street. YES, we all have one common thing that we need to have and that's the SELF-CONFIDENCE and this comes from having a POSITIVE MINDSET. Take out that POSITIVE MINDSET from the variable. sadly, it will be a 'shot in the moon' for you to have that SELF-CONFIDENCE✅✅✅
Our takeaway: it happens time and again. Two people having the same opportunity, same approach, same blueprint for success and in the business world, maybe they have the same mentor. One makes six figures while the other FAILS or simply gives up. WHAT's the difference? Likely, it's their MINDSET. WHY? That is the very building blocks of SUCCESS, without it, the foundation can crumble and collapse when storms inevitably hit you. Indeed, that GAP BETWEEN SUCCESS and FAILURE may NOT be that huge after allπππ
