whatever it takes to get you to try
harder read more set your goals and go
for it here’s the next attitude disease
/ caution some people never will have
much they’re too cautious now you can
also be too reckless but you can also be
too cautious this is called the timid
approach to life and my caution was
always the risk risk used to drive me
right up the wall
I used to say what if this happens it’s
called the language of the poor what if
this happens and on top of that if this
was to happen look at the fix I be and I
better not try
I could always ace my self out then I’ll
tell you what changed my whole life when
I finally discovered it’s all risky the
minute you were born it got risky if you
think trying is risky wait till they
hand you the bill for not trying if you
think investing is risky wait till you
get the tab for not investing see it’s
all risky getting married is risky
having children is risky going into
business is risky investing your money
is risky it’s all risky I’ll tell you
how risky life is you’re not going to
that’s risky the Englishman says well if
that’s the way it’s going to work out
let’s give it a go right that’s what
it’s for give it a go somebody says yeah
but I’m looking for safety and security
fine then huddle in a corner we’ll cover
you with a sheet bring you three meals a
day and we’ll protect you
feed you look after you care for you we
won’t let anything happen to you and
you’ll probably live to be 100 the guy
said well yeah I’d live to be 100 but
what a way to live right what a way to
live safe and secure don’t ask for
security ask for adventure better to
live 30 years full of adventure than 100
years safe in the corner and see it’s
not important how long you live what’s
important is how you live here’s the
next attitude disease we’re almost
through with this motley list in fact
we’re almost through hang on
the next one is pessimism pessimism the
deadly disease of always looking on the
bad side the problem side the difficult
side checking all the reasons why I
can’t be done the poor pessimist leads
an ugly life he doesn’t try to figure
out what’s right he tries to figure out
what’s wrong he doesn’t look for virtue
he looks for faults and when he finds
him he’s delighted how this is the poor
guy looks through the window doesn’t see
the sunset he sees the specks on the
and this is the poor guy right who
rushes up take such leave of his senses
this guy rushes up and he says I’ve got
5 good reasons why it won’t work he’s so
dumb he doesn’t know all he needs one
he’s got 5 – the pessimist the glass is
always half-empty – the optimist the
glass is half-full why would the same
measure affect people two different ways
answer it all depends on how you look at
it our lives are mostly affected by the
way we think things are not the way they
are the way we think they are affects us
most there’s a subject we don’t have
time to get into tonight called better
thinking habits one of the major things
shoved taught me when I met him he said
poor thinking habits keeps most people
poor not poor working habits most people
work hard but they don’t think hard and
show taught me that the mind is like a
factory a mental factory and whatever
you think about all day long pours
ingredients into this mental Factory and
that’s what builds the economic social
financial fabric of your life he quoted
me a Bible phrase that says as you think
so you become how awesome when he talked
about poor thinking habits he had me I
used to start the day reading the
morning newspaper I mean you can leave
that or not I’d get a cup of coffee and
read the paper I’d load up on Wars and
riots and murders and stabbings and
killings and bank robberies and muggings
and car wrecks and tragedies I’d even
read the back pages I seem to like that
stuff for some weird reason I’d load up
on all that and then I start the day you
can imagine the kind of days I used to
have
you walk around on your financial knees
they call you economic peewee the guy
says I want to be a great leader
wonderful the first thing we do is
following to his house when we get there
we walk in and check his library number
one somebody says well why check his
library the reason is because what a man
reads pours massive ingredients into his
mental factory and the fabric of his
life is built from those ingredients you
would not believe what some people have
got in their house to read you would not
believe one of the best cast of words I
know for a lot of it is trash can you
imagine dumping a bale of trash into
this mental factory every day and coming
out with a rich dynamic positive life it
can’t be done you might as well try
making a cake with cement the kids back
in Danbury Connecticut high school
they’re asking me questions one day I’m
talking to the kids kids got good
questions these days one of them said to
me mr. Owen how do you build the good
life I said it’s simple it’s not easy
but it’s simple here’s how you build
anything select the right ingredients
keep out the wrong ingredients and it
starts with thought everything starts
with thought so you must be wise and
careful what you think about because
you gotta be wise and careful I asked
the kids what would happen if somebody
dropped sugar in my coffee they said
well you’d be okay I said what if
somebody dropped strychnine in my coffee
they said well you’d be dead
I said correct lesson 1 life is both
sugar and strychnine you gotta be
careful I said what if my worst enemy
drops in the sugar they said will you be
ok I said what if my best friend even by
accident drops in the strychnine they
said well you’d be dead I said correct
lesson 2 watch your coffee you got to be
careful see it doesn’t matter who hands
you the bad stuff it doesn’t matter
where you get the bad stuff it’ll still
do its damage on your bank account
wherever you get it mr. shelf gave me
one of the greatest phrases when I first
met him when he said gym every day stand
guard at the door of your mind how
important stand guard at the door of
your mind and you decide what goes into
your mental factory don’t let anybody
just dump anything they want to in your
mental factory because you’ve got to
live with the results ok here’s the last
disease and we’re through with this list
in fact we’re almost through hang on the
last subject is very brief the last
disease but this one is deadly engage in
this one indulge in it even slightly and
you might as well forget the future
because it’s going to forget you
complaining crying whining griping a
Bible word called murmuring see that
will ace your future spend five minutes
complaining and you have wasted five
and you may have begun what’s known as
economic cancer of the boom surely they
will soon haul you off into a financial
desert and there let you choke on the
dust of your own regret I hope I said
that well so you won’t forget it’s a
deadly disease if you don’t think it’s
bad ask the children of Israel of Old
Testament fame typical of us all their
story just happened to get in the book
story says children of Israel were
slaves God performed a series of
dazzling miracles and got him out and
now they’re heading for the promised
land remember the story
heading for the Promised Land tragedy of
the story they never got their reason
from day one they started to complain
they griped about the water they griped
about the weather
they whined and cried and griped about
the food they griped about the
leadership they’ve whined and cried
because it was too far too cold too hot
too difficult too miserable I mean they
widened wined and cried for years
finally God said I’ve had it
or something like that the story says
they died in the desert never got to the
promised Li which I think means two
things
indulge in this long enough you get your
Futurecast and I guess it also means
just be on the lookout of the things
that can destroy all the good you start
the war is on and this evening tomorrow
mentally personally socially
economically you got to make sure you’re winning the war and this is part of it
harder read more set your goals and go
for it here’s the next attitude disease
