How To Think Like a Superhero by Robin Sharma

How to think like a superhero

 

I found this video that Robin Sharma had Tweeted the other day. It really is worth your time to watch. It’s called How To Think Like A Superhero.

Robin Sharma wrote one of my favorite books The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari and the best selling The Leader Who Had no Title.

In the video he talk about thinking like a superhero. His thesis is that super successful people, CEOs, celebrities etc. aren’t more special than you or me but that they have a far superior work ethic than the average person. He says at one point that these successful people he’s interviewed and worked with can accomplish in a day what most people do in a month.

The secret to success is that there is no secret to success, there’s no way around it, you have to work hard at it. But if you do work hard, and focus on a goal, you will accomplish it.

You should pick up some Shwarma and sit down and read some Robin Sharma.

Unleashing The Vast Power of Your Brain

Tweet

I’m a big fan of self education and these videos shared by a friend on Facebook were very enlightening.  I think you can learn a lot from them.  There’s four videos (they’re actually just audio on Youtube), roughly 10 minutes each.  I know, long hey? Sorry.  But it’s roughly the same length as your TV favorite show, weird.  And you’re going to learn a lot about your mind.  Let me know what you think (haha! Not literally).

Doubling Your Brain Power (Part 1 of 4)

Why Does Your Business Exist?

Why does your business exist?  Is it to just make money?  Or is it more than that?  In Simon Sinek’s Start With Why he explores the idea of looking beyond what product your company is selling, and focus on why your company is selling it.  The absolute core purpose of your company, the reason it exists.
