By Mauro Libi Crestani. “Positive thinking is not only expecting the best to happen! But it is also about accepting that whatever happens is for the best…”.
Life definitely presents its challenges. When we are presented with a task to accomplish there are three periods of time that can either hinder us or enhance our abilities to see the task through.
A few months ago I went to a friend’s graduation. The guest speaker was a middle aged female CEO. She told a story of how her success started. The other students in her graduation class were limited by their lack of experience. When they went on interviews, it was always the same story. The job interviewer always asked about what experience that the graduate had with maybe a software program that they never worked on or with some business system that they knew nothing about. The graduate had to be honest and say that they lacked the experience and the job went off to someone else. This CEO when she went on her first interviews after graduation spoke about her experience with software and systems that she knew nothing about. You see, she was a believer that each opportunity was for her growth potential and in her best interest. She also believed that whatever skill they wanted and needed that she could learn the skill before she started her job. So she did not consider her tale of experience to be a fallacy. She was so positive that she would be proficient in this software and skill if she put her mind to it. When she got that first job, she put in her full efforts to learn everything that she could to be fully trained and knowledgeable and the best at what was expected of her and she succeeded.
Now, this is not my story and I am not telling anyone to lie on a job interview. I am talking about believing in your ability to be the best by study and effort and to act on it today because you have this positive belief in your own ability.
