Daily Inspiration: “Fun fact: successful people usually get to the future before the future actually happens!”

“Fun fact: successful people usually get to the future before the future actually happens!” – Futurist Jim Carroll

If you hang out with successful people, you’ll notice that they share share several common attributes:

• an ongoing willingness to learn about the things they don’t know
• an attitude that involves continual, relentless exploration based on hands-on experience
• a relentless curisoity as to what makes things ‘tick’
• a never-ending desire to reinvent their world for what they perceive will happen next
• a steadfast refusal to accept the status quo
• a vast impatience with the ways that things are
• an attitude that is driven by the question ‘why not?’
• a dismissive approach to those who would dare suggest that their idea is a dumb idea
• a dogged pursuit of their beliefs
• a history of mistakes which are simply the bedrock for the next step of the journey
• a mindset that if it is not yet invented, it might as well be!
• a willingness to ask questions and then, more questions
• a refusal to accept that things will stay the way they are
• a relentless effort to shape things to the way they could be
• an intense frustration with those who are stuck in a rut
• a burning knowledge that to be stuck in such a rut is a path of doom
• an ability to ignore those who might say ‘it can’t be done’
• a determination to prove that it can be done
• an unbending belief in the direction of their efforts
• a never-ending investment in building up the time investment with those efforts
• a motivating sense of purpose that comes from a series of small wins rather than huge home runs

I could go on.

My home broadcast studio fits into every single one of these categories, and more.

I’m already here, in the future, even if my clients aren’t yet!
