Motivational Power Quote

 

Forward Thinking

“You can’t have a better tomorrow

if you’re thinking about yesterday.”

Charles Kettering, inventor

 

 

As I see it . . . . . . .

 

Forward thinking 

 

You live your life in your thoughts and those thoughts come alive in your actions.

 

You have a choice to think about whatever you choose to think about and in those thoughts you create the patterns that your live your life by.

 

In your thoughts you create your destiny.

 

You can choose be a forward thinker living in the present and planning and adapting to meet the business requirements of a changing business environment of the future.

 

Or you can be living your life in your thoughts in dreaming about yesterday and hoping that everything will return to be exactly the way things were in the past.

 

The world has changed, the real estate business has changed and you have changed as a consequence the changing business environment. As a result you have to change your thinking to meet the demands of shifting business environment to remain competitive in the future. 

 

The question becomes what do you want your future to look like and what do have to do to turn your thoughts into a reality?

 

Use your past as valuable learning experience. Carry forward the experiences that will help you to achieve your goals and eliminate the old and unproductive habits and thinking that you’re carrying that are holding you back.

 

Forward thinking will focus you on the future and keep your thoughts moving forward. As a forward thinker you will be able to see the big picture and greater opportunity. You will be to plan, adapt, adjust and implement successful strategies from where you are today and with the resources you have to achieve the desired results. 

 

As the business environment continues to change the forward thinker will be in front of the business curve and be able to take greater advantage of the changing business environment and capture a large share of the business.

It goes back to the post I did last week on Helen Keller and her saying, "Keep your face to the sun and you will not see the shadow."  All so very true in all aspects of life.

Best regards Lou, from The Q

Lou - We've been telling this to our boys since they were toddlers, it doesn't matter what you did yesterday only what you're going to do today and tomorrow.

Hi Lou,
Thanks for sharing.
This blog really hits home for me, I tend to drift off sometimes thinking about the past.
Thanks for the gentle reminder to live in the moment and for the future!
Have a wonderful week!
