What is a secret to success we should file away in our minds as we seek to be productive in life and in business. A secret known by many successful people is productivity and creativity are like twin sisters. You need to be as creative as you are productive if you want to be a winner in life and business. The polar opposite to creativity is competition.
To be a star player, you must see yourself as a winner in business, life, and anything you want to co-create. Each time you step foot on the court you must have already visualized winning the game. Your self talk must be about winning and with an attitude for success, you will always be a bright and shining star in the game of basketball.
Life and business offers these same opportunities and blessings for those of us who maintain a winner's continuity. If we see ourselves as a beacon of light in the world, if we see ourselves as winners, if we visualize our success, then we will be a bright and shining star for all to marvel. That power is in all of us but it begins when we see ourselves as winners.
The remarkable characteristic about a winner is that a winner finds creative ways to succeed in all areas of life and business. Winners are not concerned with what the next person is doing or what the next person can do to them. Winners are too innovative, too focus, and too committed to worry or concern themselves with competition.
This knowledge of creativity versus competition has been emphasized in the Science of Getting Rich by W.D. Wattles. When some study the Science of Getting Rich, they often want to rid their life of any desire to be a winner because some people think they have to be a competitive in order to be a winner. The quote from W.D. Wattles in the Science of Getting Rich reads:
"Every person who becomes rich by competition knocks down the ladder by which he rises, and keeps others down, but every person who gets rich by creation opens a way for thousands to follow - and inspires them to do so."
This passage speaks volumes about productivity, inspiration and creativity. Through this we learn and overcome many illusions and fetters of the ego. We discover a comforting truth about creativity and productivity. We learn that winning has nothing to do with the competition itself. But more, winning is the nature of the Hero or Warrior in all of us. With a winner's continuity and a productive mental attitude, we become champions. A champion can be a supporter, defender, a business man, a business woman, or simply a promoter of good in the world. This is the concept of the Peaceful Warrior. And a Peaceful Warrior is dedicated to personal development, spiritual development, and success in life and business.
Developing a winner's continuity is what promotes our ability to build a spirit of excellence and reap the fruits of productivity. This spirit of excellence allows our gifts and talents to make room for us in any arena of life and business. As a winner, your flow excels. Your well-being is that of a champion and a peaceful warrior. In this manner, there is no competition for you. Competition is struggle. Winners don't struggle.
Winners are graceful and when they win it seems natural. Remember the late great Flo-Jo. When Flo-Jo ran her laps around the track, it seems as if she was doing it gracefully without effort. But her winner's continuity tapped into her creative potential each day she "trained" as an athlete. Through her training she developed as a runner and her skills became more profound. When we stepped on to the track, on her mark, and set to go-she went gracefully and artfully. It seemed as if nothing could stop her. The name Flo-Jo fit her perfectly because she could flow without cease.
We can produce the same way everyday in life and in business when we choose to let go of competition and work with the Creative Spirit as co-creators of our life, business ventures, and daily activities. That's right, no obstacle could stop us because there will be no obstacles. Who can compete with the unstoppable flow of creativity?
