One reason many people say they don’t like lawyers is that we appear to be negative people. We’re the ones who tell everyone why things won’t work.
Hey, we’re just doing our job.
Lawyers are said to be bad in business because we’re risk-adverse. We see what can go wrong and we don’t like to take chances. We stay safe but we also miss a lot of opportunities.
How many of us fail to realize our potential?
Robert Schuller asked, “What would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail?” It’s one of my favorite questions.
Turn off your issue-spotting machine temporarily and think about this for a few minutes. If failure was impossible, what would you be, do, or have?
Think about what you want and how you feel about it. How bad do you want it?
If it’s something that makes your heart sing, don’t give up on it just because the evidence against you seems overwhelming.
Dr. Robert Anthony said, “Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will.”
