Seeking Success? Get a Second Opinion!

Good Morning!

Your doctor commits to calling you when the results of blood tests are reviewed...and will call you if there are any concerns...otherwise...no call is good news!

A few days later your phone rings!

As he promised...the news is not good...

What is your next move?

Human nature has created an automatic defense mechanism...denial...

In other words...you doubt the accuracy of the conclusions...and want it tested again!

You repeat and confirm the tests AND get a second opinion from another physician...probably a Specialist...

RIGHT?
********************************************

How do you treat "self-perception?"

You believe yourself to be one way...

Do you automatically seek a second opinion?

I bet that happens very seldom!

The fact of the matter is...this is when you should most often seek a second opinion...

The person who probably has the highest probability of error...on assessments of yourself...is you!

**********************************************

Successful people know themselves...but what differentiates the truly successful from the rest is...

HOW THEY KNOW THEMSELVES!

A person can not be successful if their self image is just from inside...

It is like putting on make-up...while looking at a photograph of yourself...

The most successful people know themselves from others perceptions...

Ahhh,,,these people are putting on make-up...using a mirror...(for the male readers...shaving by using a mirror)...

********************************************

What is my advice?

For those aspiring success...

SEEK A SECOND OPINION!

This takes bravery!

The first question..."Do you think I can be successful?"

The second question..."What do you think I can be successful in?"

Does it match your perception?

or...

Is it something you want to do?

If not...get another second opinion...

********************************************

An important characteristic of success is that you do not go after it...on your opinion alone...

You may see yourself as the greatest thing since sliced bread...

But you may be moldy from an angle that you can not see...

Get a second opinion!
