Challenge-based Self-Motivation * * * Adopt a positive can-do attitude and stretch yourself   The world is full of challenges, but it was created that way for a higher purpose – know how to anticipate challenges and turn them to your advantage. VadiK Inventor Author Founder   Disruptive innovators have to navigate through the valley of death, but everything which doesn't kill venturepreneurs makes them stronger. Treat venture development as a sports game you are determined to win. Treat competitors as your coaches who inspire you to be more inventive.   Risk is a just an easy choice between fear of falling down and a chance to take off. ~ Vadim Kotelnikov   Fear as a Motivator Imagine that you lived the rest of your life never having achieved your goal, and you never realized your potential or what you were capable of. Create as horrible a picture as you can about this possible future.       Problem       Don't focus on the problem, look for solutions to attract inventive ideas, discoveries, and opportunities. Approach the problem with the expectant attitude that there is an amazing outside-the-box practical solution just waiting to be found.       Failure       Failure is a Teacher, not an Executioner. It is a stepping stone to success. Failure is not something to be afraid of or to grieve about. Failure is something to prevent or to benefit from. Fail forward – learn from failures and improve instead of viewing failures as setbacks.       How to use this information         ① "Adapt what is useful, reject what is useless, and add what is specifically your own." ~ Bruce Lee ② Sleep on this information – your powerful superconscious mind will tell you how to use it when you wake up   Slides   DYY – Do Yourself Yourself   Notes     Self-Motivation  >>  3 Competencies and 4 Techniques  |  5 NLP Rules
