My intention was to write this article with a fairly clear idea of what I wanted to express. But you know what they say about intentions – at least good ones?:-)I came out to my balcony with laptop in tow and I started typing. However,
impressive powerboats and mammoth lake and ocean freighters passing by against magnificent backdrop of downtown Detroit skyline soon had my full attention.
I chose to live here just because of this million dollar view, and I work out here in my ‘second office’ almost every day, so why would I be so distracted this particular time?
The answer didn’t take long to appear. Coming into view a foot at a time was this sleek, bright white yacht with blacked-out windows. It slowly cruised by, as if to say “watch me!” She was indeed a thing of beauty, all 120 or so feet of her. The ultimate physical statement of success and achievement!
Suddenly, my pre-conceived notion of how this article was going to unfold simply flew away, just like flocks of roosting seagulls do as I approach them on my morning walk along river’s edge.
I began to wonder exactly who owned this stunning ship and how he or she ‘attracted’ it into their life. No doubt owner was taking several weeks off, or perhaps even entire summer, to cruise Great Lakes. Or even better, this yacht set to sea in Caribbean, headed up Atlantic seaboard entered St. Lawrence Seaway and sailed down through Lake Ontario and Lake Erie to pass by my balcony - to inspire me!
A lingering look through powerful binoculars made this ultimate status symbol all more beautiful!
I returned to reality, wondering who owner could be.
One thing I can assure you is that someone created a lot of wealth in order to be able to navigate this vessel past my building at this most appropriate time!
You might be thinking that this came from inherited money and you could be right. The point remains, however, that one person, at one time, with a single idea, put into motion “the seed” that attracted all money required to float this multi-million dollar ship down Detroit River. Let’s examine this.
For sake of argument, let’s assume that our “captain” here is also a captain in entrepreneurial world. He or she owns or is an integral part of a successful company or corporation.
As is case with most real success stories, this entrepreneur probably started with only “the seed” and a shoestring budget. And so, important question becomes: how did this seed grow into success it is today?
Ninety-nine-point-nine percent of answer most likely lies within title of this article. They “thought” their way to top! I can guarantee you that this entrepreneur “thinks” like world’s most successful entrepreneurs. He or she thinks “success thoughts”.
Are you wondering what success thoughts are?
Success thoughts are simply those powerful and empowering thoughts you think, minute-to-minute, hour-by hour, day-to-day, every day, that set into motion Universal Law of Attraction – what you think is what you get! Think success – achieve success.
