Entrepreneur

Why does  a person choose one area rather then another?

~It can be a chance or a chance meeting

~It can be an opportunity

~Fear-It can motivate one to do something,but it's not the one I'm looking for.There can be a fear of life flattening off and going downhill,which would be financially disagreeable but not critical.

Security is an antidote to anxiety.

With successful people the anxieties are 'propellant' than retardant

Power-is the ability to persuade,and if one fails at persuading that person is not thrown out with the effort.It's a scale on which self-worth is measured.

Money is a measurement of how well you're doing.You can be just as smart and never make the big money,and yet be doing a better job than some fellow who's making the big money.

Making money is not itself success-it's a by product of success.

An artist paints on oil canvas.A composer works with musical notes and notations.An entrepreneur works with money.An entrepreneur has the advantage because money is with the medium in which he works and also a very direct measure of success.A person whose success can be measured in money  has a reward system that is  more efficient than almost all others.

~People can train for unusual combinations,because by definition they must be very rare

~Constant search for what you really wanted.This restlessness and willingness to change is also a feature of successful people.They don't seem to be content of what has been provided to them

Creativity of innocence--Because you don't know how something ought to be done,you're able to find an original solution

The new comer may not know why something cannot be done

Creativity of escape--We do-not know how things are generally done,but we manage to escape from that.for such escape we need provocation and some of the other attitudes and tools of lateral thinking

~The essential point of provocation is that we create an unstable situation from which we can then move forward to a new perception or a new idea

~Once we understand the nature of patterning systems then we come to realize two things.The first thing is that such systems are absolutely essential for ordinary life and immensely valuable.The second thing is that we are locked into those patterns which are but a summary of our sequence of past experience,and that already experience can be used to form new ideas.
