Nikola Tesla’s name came up again, recently. I guess that happens more here in Colorado Springs where I live and work because Mr. Tesla spent some time here. I shared a little of his story a few years ago. But in case you missed it, I’d like to share it again. And then I’ll tell you why.
He studied math and physics at the Technical University of Graz. And he studied philosophy at the University of Prague. And one day, back in 1882, he went for a walk and a great idea popped into his head. Well, not being the kind of guy to let a good idea go to waste, he immediately started sketching his ideas for a brushless AC motor, with rotating electromagnets, in the sand. Now, that’s Success Thinking.
And, obviously, Nikola Tesla had it in spades.
Tesla knew precisely what he wanted to achieve. And he knew why it was important to him. He knew how to set goals for himself. And he was committed to taking the necessary steps to achieve them. From what I’ve been able to pick up, in articles about him, his ability to stay focused was second to none.
Think about it (pun intended). Everything starts as an idea. Right?
And that’s why great idea people, like Nikola Tesla, spend a lot of time thinking. Because idea people know that when you think, with focus, you can get a clear vision. And if you can “see it,” there’s a better chance you’ll be able to do it.
That’s why I teach what I call System Think. Consider this, for example:
Who do you spend more time with than anybody else on the planet? YOU. Right? And since you spend every waking, sleeping, walking, talking moment with yourself, it’s a great idea to get your thinkin’ straight.
YOU know what I’m talking about.
All that negative self-talk. Those things you tell yourself which your self shouldn’t oughta hear. Like “I’m not smart enough to come up with good ideas.” Or how about, “There’s no way I could ever do what so-and-so did.” And maybe you’ve even wondered, “How am I supposed to compete with them? They’re better lookin’, have more money, and everybody likes them.”
Yeah, NO. That’s just stinkin’ thinkin’.
It could be so much better if you tell yourself you CAN reach your goals. And it could be so much better if you could see yourself successful. And not as a failure? No comparison.
The most successful people are usually the ones who could see themselves in that position long before they got there. And they didn’t allow that ol’ devil, Self-Doubt, to creep into their heads.
If you wanna get to the Success Thinking, you gotta get control of your whole thought process. But where do you learn how to do that? Most parents don’t pass Success Thinking on to their kids because it wasn’t passed on to them.
And if you look up schools that include a How To Think course, let me know if you find one.
But I know where you CAN find it.
It’s the fundamentals of System Think found at RondaReady YOUniversity. I created the course for young people (and older people who know it’s never too late) just starting out in the real world.
And the very first lessons in RondaReady YOUniversity are designed to help you discover your Vision. And they can help you focus your energy in the direction you’d actually like to go. With strategies to help you know how to get there. I can’t guarantee you’ll be the next Nikola Tesla. But you can learn to think like him.
How about we talk about it some more? Book a free call with me, with that handy calendar below. And give me a chance to see where you wanna go in life. I’d love to help YOU if I can. Let’s talk soon.
