Hard times create strong men.
Strong men create good times.
Good times create weak men.
Weak men create hard times.
I strongly believe that we are in the good times. In the perfect times ever. The possibilities of doing things - creating services, products, companies, startups, NGOs, or the craziest projects ever - are nearly endless.
On the other hand, we have many challenges. Based on environmental, political, cultural, social, and other changes, we are observing that we are in a transformation period. Old habits, rituals, and general order are questioned and abandoned, which has many effects.
I firmly believe that ‘Good times’ can create weak people, but they can also create absolute titans, thanks to all the possibilities to grow.
Nowadays, more than being a specialist in some areas is required. The real value is in a position where different life areas cross.
Multidimensional development is crucial, and the mindset is pivotal. It is the foundation on which we can create anything we want.
It will allow achieve maximum effectiveness.
It means resiliency for the changes worldwide - both globally and in our world.
Connecting technical growth with constant work on mentality gives deep and absolute power.
And there is no other option now. People must care for those two areas to have a good life.
It is good to look for inspiration in the surrounding world—nature, the army, and sport. The best athletes have two things—top skill and a unique mentality. Often, they work on their mentality with mental trainers who help them achieve that 0.1%, which will decide whether they will win the competition.
Also, quality over quantity. Top quality creates trust and reduces problems and side costs. Quantity often destroys trust, causes additional issues, and increases costs. The most aware people know that.
That is the future. The future starts precisely now. Work on the hard skills and mentality now.
Nature is cyclic. Most of the things around us are cyclic. The good times will not be endless. Be the titan.
