Deep Resovoir

Here is today’s video:

Skip the first 1:42. This is the first in a 3 part series.

We have all probably heard a variation of the “we are only using 5% of our brains/potential” statistic that he sites. I think he has an interesting perspective on it though. First, he mentions that we all have a deep reservoir of potential, even genius, within us that we must tap into. Second, he says we are only having 5% of the fun we could be having. Think about that. Tapping into your deep reservoir will be fun. You are only having 5% of the fun you could be having….

I think his definition of success is interesting too. Striving towards some great idea. Think about yourself. Are you striving towards some great idea? Working towards some lofty goal or idea?

I have noticed lately that at Mavidea everyone seems to get most excited when I talk them through how we are going to be going after some lofty goal or idea. A large part of our success thus far can be attributed to the fact that we have consistently set lofty goals in front of ourselves and set out to achieve them.

Think about yourself and your potential. I have a mental picture of a deep well of genius that any one of us can dip into any time we want. Think about how deep all of our wells are when you put them together. There is enough genius and potential inside our four walls today to accomplish anything we can think of.
