'Mindscaping' for career building 16
If opportunity doesn't knock, build a door.
The mind is an amazing thing. Two people may not
see the same thing the same way. Have someone shown you a picture and asked whether
you see an old lady or an young girl? Some will see only an old lady and some
will see only a young girl. If you log on to Google and search 'perception
pictures' you will see some more interesting pictures which will explain what I
am trying to say here.
In life also, what is a problem for some will be an
opportunity for some other.
A shoe salesman was sent to an island where he sees
no one wearing shoes. He sends a telegram to his General Manager asking him not
to send anymore shoes. The General Manager replaces this salesman with one of
his best salesman who goes to the same island and this salesman sends a
telegram 'send a shipload of shoes....no one is wearing shoes here'!
In order to succeed, you should think differently
so that you do things differently. The various hierarchy levels in an
organisation really means that there are various levels in thinking!
The higher your thinking, the higher you will raise
in an organisation.
