Are You Prepared?


Here is one of my favorite quotes: “By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.”

And take a wild guess at who said that…

Yep, Benjamin Franklin, one of the most admirable Growthinkers of all time.
(If you haven’t read my post How to Grow Like Benjamin Franklin, click here!)

Being prepared is a condition for being successful.

But in all honesty, are you prepared?
Are you prepared to succeed?
Unfortunately, most people are not.
They talk about how bad they want to be successful, but are not even remotely prepared to be.

If you want to be successful, you have to be prepared to be.
Period.

Prepare by taking care of yourself, physically and mentally.

Prepare yourself to make mistakes.
You will make mistakes. You will fail.
But make sure you always fail forward.
Be prepared to learn from your mistakes and failures.

The best thing about preparation is that no one can do it for you.
YOU have to be the one to prepare.

Don’t prepare to fail by failing to prepare.

Prepare to succeed and you will succeed.

Prepare to be the person you want to be, and you will become them.

Prepare by Growthinking.

Every single day.

Start today.




Stay tuned.
