The wooden plank
Back in April, I wrote about the training that I would take. The training helped me a lot in understanding how my mind works. It helps me to develop the mindset that I need to get through times in a way that others would see as challenging.
My current situation, after losing my job, and the way how I carried it through, is the best proof that it works. The basic message is that you can shape your mind and when you shape your mind, you can shape your reality and your destiny.
At the time of the original writing, I included a picture of the wooden plank that we would have to break. Solid wood, nothing to joke about.
When the course was completed, our trainer demonstrated how the board can be broken. We, the trainees, modelled his behaviour and his mindset. And, we all made it. We all broke the board.
Here is mine. It also highlights my own destiny. Sooner or later, I am going to run my own company. And it will be about helping people to change their mindset - to celebrate the great times and to help them to get through tough times, and to see the opportunities that lie ahead and within us.

That's really motivating, and I wish you great success! But we may also have to keep reality in mind, that is, out of 100 really enthusiastic business starters, 90 are going to drop by the wayside.Whatever the mindset! That's REAL life!
