How to lead an epic life and unleash the high performance hero within you
'It's All Possible' by Rob Hartnett is an inspirational book that encourages readers to pursue their dreams by sharing real-life stories of success. It provides practical tips and tools for overcoming obstacles and achieving one's goals.
Up until the 1950s, scientists believed no person could run a four-minute mile. Then Roger Bannister wowed the world by running one in three minutes and 59 seconds.
In his youth, people told Doug Flutie he was too short for sports. Yet he trained hard, honed his skills, and became an NFL quarterback.
When Jessica Cox was born without arms, doctors expected her to live a sedentary life. Undeterred, she earned a black belt in taekwondo.
Roger, Doug, and Jessica may sound like uniquely amazing individuals. And it’s true that each of them accomplished incredible things. Yet they all share one quality in common. They all refused to set limits on their lives. Instead of focusing on barriers and boundaries, they saw a world where anything was possible.
The key message here is: Life is about believing in possibility, not limitation.
All too often, we let our lives be defined by narrow constraints. Instead of striving to attain our goals or working to pursue our desires, we imagine them to be out of reach. Sometimes, we don’t even imagine better lives at all. We simply accept the world around us as permanent. However, the first step to making any big change is to start seeing the world as full of possibility.
So how do you become awake to possibility? First, you need to interrogate your own subconscious understanding of the world. The way we see reality is shaped by our habits, beliefs, opinions, and experiences, or HBOEs. Many of our HBOEs are so ingrained we don’t even notice how they’re holding us back. For instance, you may unconsciously believe you can’t land your dream job, so you make a habit of not even looking for opportunities.
After you become aware of your HBOEs, you can start making a conscious effort to change them. One strategy is to push back against recurring negative thoughts with positive, aspirational visualizations. Let’s say you often find yourself stressing about money or thinking, “I can't pay my bills.” When this happens, pause, take a breath, and imagine a scene in which you’re solving the problem. Envision yourself pitching your brilliant new product or opening a successful business.
With a little bit of practice and determination, you’ll adjust your mindset from one of limits to one of possibility. And once you truly start believing that positive change is possible, you’ll be ready to start taking action. In the next blinks, we’ll look at a four-step system to make this a reality.
It’s All Possible (2019) is an inspiring guide about changing your life for the better. This upbeat manual gives practical advice about accomplishing your personal and professional goals.
We can start achieving possibilities by defining what we want, and then bringing it to life in our mind through imagination.
Ich bin begeistert. Ich liebe Bücher aber durch zwei kleine Kinder komme ich einfach nicht zum Lesen. Und ja, viele Bücher haben viel bla bla und die Quintessenz ist eigentlich ein Bruchteil.
Genau dafür ist Blinkist total genial! Es wird auf das Wesentliche reduziert, die Blinks sind gut verständlich, gut zusammengefasst und auch hörbar! Das ist super. 80 Euro für ein ganzes Jahr klingt viel, aber dafür unbegrenzt Zugriff auf 3000 Bücher. Und dieses Wissen und die Zeitersparnis ist unbezahlbar.
Extrem empfehlenswert. Statt sinnlos im Facebook zu scrollen höre ich jetzt täglich zwischen 3-4 "Bücher". Bei manchen wird schnelle klar, dass der Kauf unnötig ist, da schon das wichtigste zusammen gefasst wurde..bei anderen macht es Lust doch das Buch selbständig zu lesen. Wirklich toll
Einer der besten, bequemsten und sinnvollsten Apps die auf ein Handy gehören. Jeden morgen 15-20 Minuten für die eigene Weiterbildung/Entwicklung oder Wissen.
Viele tolle Bücher, auf deren Kernaussagen reduziert- präzise und ansprechend zusammengefasst. Endlich habe ich das Gefühl, Zeit für Bücher zu finden, für die ich sonst keine Zeit habe.
Hol dir mit Blinkist die besten Erkenntnisse aus mehr als 7.000 Sachbüchern und Podcasts. In 15 Minuten lesen oder anhören!
