What's Your Level of Thinking? - Keller Williams Agents in Pembroke Pines are a 10.A couple of years ago in an ESPN interview with Golf Pro Tiger Woods, he was asked what time he set's his alarm clock to go off. He replied that he has never ever used one in his life, but that he is up at 5:00 AM every morning to begin the day. This is an example of commitment and that of a level 10 thinker.
Now I'm not suggesting everyone get out of bed at 5:00 AM, but here's a hint, successful people attack their day before it attacks them, what I suggest is that we develop the level of thinking that propels us to go and strive for excellence. There are a lot of people out there with talent who always loose. They are not thinkers.
Author David Schwartz, in The Magic of Thinking Big says, "Where success is concerned, people are not measured in inches, or pounds, or college degrees, or family background, they are measured by the size of their thinking.
Let's take a moment to think about the big thinkers that come to mind, Ronald Reagan, Warren Buffet, Michael Jordan, are a few that come to my mind. High level thinkers have a continuous hunger and desire; these people are continuously challenging themselves. When Michael Jordan retired the first time from basketball and decided to play baseball instead, it was because he felt he had run out of challenges on the basketball court.
John Maxwell writes in his book The 17 Undisputable Laws of Teamwork, "Today's ability is not enough."
So I ask; are you looking for new challenges?
What is your level of thinking?
On a scale of 1-10 what is your level of thinking?
If your thinking is not a 10 what are you doing to get it up there?
