I CAN'T WAIT FOR TOMORROW! - experience the power of belief
A few months ago, I was having lunch with my co-mates in Mumbai who were businessmen and one was an outspoken critic of anything related to a positive attitude.
He said " I used to get up in the morning and say,"Wow! This is going to be the best day of my life! Sometimes it worked and sometimes it didn't. So i quit. Now I just take whatever comes."
It was obvious.
His contribution to the conversation was to tell us what was wrong with the government, how the economy was going bankrupt his business, and how those pains in his back seemed to be getting worse. He was filled with expectation all right- the wrong kind.
Certainly you will have setbacks, trials, delays and unpleasant circumstances, but they should not alter your basic philosophy of living.
A stockbroker from Bombay Stock Exchange once told me," The investor who is worried about tomorrow goes broke playing the market, I've seen plenty of investors take huge losses on stocks because they had faith the price would ever bounce back."
He continued,"The guy who has faith in the future will wind up rich because he is consistent. He buys when it's high and he buys when it's low. Over the long haul he accumulates large quantities of stock and the value is enormous."
He added,"It takes a certain type to make it in the market. He's got to believe in the future."
You have got to be convinced that today is good, tomorrow is better, and the day after tomorrow will be the best.
It's been said that "There is no such thing as hopeless situation. Only hopeless people."
I'm asking you to see things not as they are, but as they are going to be.
Experience is the power of belief!
