Frequently Asked Questions
What can we learn from Abraham Lincoln?
Abraham Lincoln said, “I am slow to understand; very fast to forget.”
He knew how important it was to keep learning because he understood that there would come a time when he would need to unlearn old habits and embrace new ones.
This is true for our businesses as well. No matter how hard we plan for success there will be times where we run into roadblocks that cause us to get stuck in a rut.
This is why it is so important to constantly learn new ways to grow. If nothing else is important, we must learn more, even after we have reached the pinnacle.
Lincoln had the right attitude. He knew that he could improve his business' effectiveness, but he couldn’t stop learning.
There are two types entrepreneur. Those who stay busy and those who stay smart.
Those who keep busy are focused on their business' growth. They spend their time on product development and marketing, as well as customer service.
They may feel like they've accomplished something meaningful, but often they're missing the mark. They won't be able to sustain their growth if they don't also work smarter.
What separates successful entrepreneurs from average ones? The ability to quickly adapt to changing circumstances.
Successionable entrepreneurs look for ways that they can improve their products or services when faced with difficult situations.
On the other hand, average entrepreneurs cling to outdated methods that no longer work. They will not change their ways until they fail.
To be successful, you have to master both the art and skill of self-reflection.
What do our mistakes show us?
When you make a mistake, don't worry about it too much because it's a learning experience. That means you'll learn something. Even more important, you can correct any mistakes you make. You shouldn't stress about the small details. We all make them.
Even though you may feel embarrassed after making a mistake it doesn't mean you have to feel guilty. It's the way you deal with your mistakes which matters most. If you let them bother you, they'll eat away at you inside. But if you view them as opportunities for growth, you'll come out stronger on the other side.
It is important to recognize and learn from your mistakes. Do not dwell on it. Instead, look ahead to the next step. Keep moving.
Do not obsess about your mistakes. Instead, learn from your mistakes and look for ways you can improve. Learn from your mistakes to improve your future.
Successful Inventions made by accident
Inventors make mistakes. How we deal with those mistakes is what determines whether our inventions succeed or fail.
There are no accidental inventions. Each invention was created intentionally. There is no such thing a accidental invention.
An invention is a deliberate act. Intentionally making something new. Something that solves a problem. It makes someone's life easier.
However, the key to creating a successful invention is understanding how nothing happens by accident. Instead of trying avoidable mistakes, learn from them.
We would love to tell you that invention is simple, but it's not. Invention is hard work that requires persistence. It's not a quick fix. It takes time.
That means that you will have to spend much time thinking about issues and new ideas. What are people concerned about? What do they want?
These are the questions you need to ask. These questions will help guide you in deciding what kind of product/service you should develop next.
To do this, you have to put aside any preconceived notions. Preconceived notions about what the world needs or wants are not valid. Listen to your potential and current customers.
Learn what they really want. Not what they tell you they want.
Once you know what your customers want, it is time to create a way for them to get it. This is where invention starts.
What can we learn from the past?
Three lessons can be learned from history. The first is that you have to do it yourself if you want to change the world. You must make sure people are ready to change the way they live. You can only change the future if it is better.
First, there are two ways to make the world better. One is fighting for it, the other is creating it. Fighting for it is about winning, not remembering why you started fighting.
It is impossible to control how people respond to your ideas. However, it is possible to control how you present them. If you attempt to convince someone of something, you'll fail. But, if your goal is to inspire someone to act, you'll be successful.
People had an idea, and they decided to take action. This is how most great movements started. So whether you're creating change or reacting to it, the best way to make your mark is to follow these three rules: Be clear about what you want, be honest about where you come from, and be brave enough to go where nobody else has gone before.
The second lesson is that we all have a choice. We have two options: we can wait for life to happen to you or we can make it happen. This means we need to choose what kind of life you want. Is it better to decide what kind of life we want or wait for someone else? Or, do we want control of our destiny and take control?
I'd argue that we're living in a golden age right now. There is more opportunity than ever, which makes it exciting. People feel empowered to make their own futures and that's very exciting.
However, it can also be a problem. It's difficult for people to know exactly what they want or how to achieve it.
Let's say, for instance, that you are looking to buy a home. You could either sit back and expect someone to gift you a Home Depot gift certificate. You could also think about what you would love to do. Look for a job which allows you to do that. Apply for financing.
Now, let's say you wanted to travel the world. It's possible to ask, "Where do you want to travel?" Then, you'd start saving money, researching countries online, talking to friends, etc. You'd then book a ticket.
Now, let's say you didn't know what you wanted. If that were the case, you would probably do one of those things anyway. You can increase your chances to get what you want by asking these questions. It may seem silly, but it works.
The third lesson is that regardless of what happens next, there are always ways to improve the future. The reason is simple. Our choices affect who and what we become.
You can learn from the mistakes and successes of others and continue to improve until you achieve your goals.
If you don’t feel you have any value to the world, you are already behind. You must believe in yourself and that you are more than you believed.
If you don't know where to begin, start with what you know. Start small, and work your way up. Look back at the things you've done throughout your lifetime. What are you most proud of? What are you proud of? How have you overcome obstacles?
You are the only person who can limit what you can do. No matter how much anyone tells, you can achieve anything you set your mind.
Benjamin Franklin stated, "Nothing can work unless it works."
Do we have to learn history in order to avoid making the same mistakes as before?
Because we keep repeating the same mistakes, history repeats itself. We make mistakes and fail to learn. We don't change. We become complacent. We settle for mediocrity.
History repeats itself because we believe the same old stories. Our culture has conditioned us to believe there is an immutable law and a fixed truth. We cannot change them.
This is a way to stop us from thinking critically. The ability to question authority. Questioning authority. And when we don't question, we don't grow. We stagnate if we don’t move forward. When we stagnate we make the same mistakes again and again.
History doesn't repeat itself, because we continue to make the same mistakes. We don't learn from our mistakes, and we keep repeating the same mistakes over and over.
Change your perception of the world and yourself to stop the cycle. Everything is subject to constant flux. All things are in constant flux.
The key to breaking the cycle is to embrace uncertainty. Accepting that things may go wrong. Accepting that failure may be possible. Accepting that failure is possible.
Accept that you may not reach your goals. But to accept that, you should strive to improve anyway.
It's impossible to move forward if you hold onto the past. If you hold on to the belief that there are certain truths, you'll never be able to move forward.
To achieve freedom, you must be open to change. To move forward, you must give up control.
