The Hidden Power Of "Possibility Thinking"

Have you had problems so difficult, that you feel you are at your wit’s end? Why don’t you try possibility thinking?

In the book " Tough Times Never Last, But Tough People Do" by Robert H. Schuller, says that possibility thinking can show you how you can make the ideas that God will give you and solve your problems. Never throw away an idea just because it is impossible.

Give it a chance. Never underestimate the value of an idea. Every positive idea has within it a potential for success if it is manage properly and put it in action.

Tough people ( those who weathered severe economic and emotional storms in their lives) always have their "antennae" alerted for opportunities in every situation.

They are always communicating and interacting in anyway they can. They turn casual remarks and vague invitations into fruitful openings. They are always on the lookout for the tiniest threads of hope and positive directions to take.

The solutions to a crisis may not be easy to discover. But if we keep experimenting, adopt a trial and error method. We might stumble upon new channels and gain new insights that may lead us to uncover new information that would help us solve our problems and turn our lives around.

Greatness is not about what level you are in a society whether rich or poor. It is by the respect of the positive ideas that flow into our imagination. Let us learn to open our minds to receive possibility thoughts. Even in the midst of turmoil or disaster an original idea could develop that will lead to a profitable new venture.

Let us learn to follow our hunches. Listen to our intuition as well as our intellect. Resist pressure from family and friends. Be firm and stand up for what you believe in. Right or wrong it is time to trust our own judgment and believe in our own wisdom.

These are the winning skills we can learn in order we can have the capacity to outlast a crisis:

Experiment.

Be active and productive.

Get acquainted with exploring new pathways.

Become familiar with trial and error behaviour.

Learn how to be disappointed and yet try again.

Just imagine if you can incorporate these skills in your daily life, one day you will just wake up and realize that you have become the person you can admire and respect…..the person you truly want to be.

Zeroing In On Self Discipline

“He who conquers his self is mightier than he who conquers a city.” I forgot who said that line but the message stuck with me. It means have control over yourself first before you can have control over other things outside of yourself.. Private victories precede public victories. It all starts within you. Self- discipline and self control are major components if you want to master yourself. Self-mastery is a pre-requisite to transforming yourself into changed and better individual. The words self discipline and self control are enough to make you cringe. It means deprivation. It means loss of freedom. Sacrifice. Delayed gratification . But think of the rewards when you are able to discipline yourself. It’s enough to get you motivated. What separates the winners from the average people is that the winners reach a level of self-mastery accomplished through self discipline. Winners do not lose heart and become devastated by their misfortunes. They don’t become slaves to bad habits. They...

Selling Medical Equipments and Supplies

I live in a country where rice is the staple food. And what does it mean? It means that a major percentage of the population are diabetics. Rice when processed by our digestive system become glucose. So that means too much sugar in our bodies. Anyways, how do we see that as a money making opportunity as well as helping diabetics? It’s really pretty simple. This is how my cousin and I did it. My cousin works for a multinational company that deals with medical equipments and supplies. He got a huge discount if he purchases merchandise from where he worked. He supplied me with blood glucose monitoring systems (the portable ones) and test strips. ( the paper strip where in you put trickles of your blood to be inserted in the portable machine to know you blood sugar level.)

I got like residual income from people with diabete...
