Attract The Right Job Or Clientele:
How Do You See Your Future?
Once again, a social conversation brought up an essential question for personal and business goals, ‘How do you see your future?’
Most are fearful of doing something unusual, so they stand back with uncertainty and fear. Yet other people are known to make quick determinations before thinking a situation through from both sides of the argument. Rarely does either scenario produce the results we want.
Over the years, some of us learned to take calculated risks in trying something new. The word ‘calculated’ refers to the odds being fairly good the new idea can work, but not with 100% certainty. Those who take this type of risk believe the odds are in their favor that it will work out well. But one more differentiator is that they commit to doing everything in their power to make it work. The 100% commitment to continue trying to see the idea through to the end differentiates us and gives us the path to success.
Scams are rampant, and we must protect our resources to move steadily forward without harm or regret. After receiving a suggestion, an offer to partner, or the possibility of purchasing a service, more than ever, we need to consider one question seriously:
“How do you see your future?”
My Story
It’s vital to keep in mind that every decision has two elements to research, and they are the pros and cons for moving forward. Accordingly, all associated aspects are necessary for consideration. Potentially research the dilemma too, and only afterward can we arrive at an educated answer. Remember, your life is about you and those close to you; keep this in mind to live your extraordinary life without regret.
Repeatedly, throughout my career history, the infamous words are, ‘that will never work, and you will lose what you have.’ But my thought was, what if I listen and don’t do it? What will I lose? Finally, my one question before every essential decision is,
‘What is the worst that can happen?’
Those who allow fear to enter their landscape can quickly answer what the worst may be over time. However, by asking for the worst, we need to ask,
‘What is the best potential outcome?’
We each have different reasons for being in business. When we ask ourselves the above questions, a signal arrives for whether or not to proceed – that of a smile!
The signs for moving forward with a calculated risk:
- A big smile
- Confirmation of the ultimate vision
- Excitement
- The budget can handle the expense
- The desire to move forward now!
Finally, when we find the thought lingering, we know it’s time to see our idea through to completion!

Your Story: How do You See Your Future?
It would be a rare person who never made what they consider a severe error or regretted not following through on a matter. The past makes it more compelling to think through the benefits versus the deficits for attempting something new when considering a new idea.
But before looking at the most comprehensive picture possible, this time, it’s best to review what is holding you back. List the reasons for missing out on a previous opportunity. Then consider whether the concerns were valid or made out of fear.
One other factor that holds many back is hearing the negative input from others. It is wise to have a friendly negotiation first with yourself. Once you figure out how to change your history for the better, then it’s time to discuss the varying pros and cons with others to move forward in this instance. Another warning to heed is not to offend partners. At the same time, attempting to please our networks never leads to the success we desire. We are to pay attention to the balancing act of remaining respectful and review varying thoughts at all times.
Caution: The one limiting factor in the discussion scenario is not to allow ego to take over to prove your voice is more vital and your actions more critical.
Another pause for reflection is considering how you habitually attempt to get your ideas accepted. Forcibly selling your ideas never turns out well. The better route is to influence a decision in your favor. When it’s your turn, you can accomplish getting the decision in your favor by asking other people, such as prospective clients and partners, the outcome they want to experience.
By gaining their insights and reasoning for their responses upfront, you can better determine how to proceed. But it is still wise to use caution as you speak. Should you still be anxious about questioning others, consider whether you currently follow or lead and whether change is in order.
Reflection and self-evaluation are the preliminary steps for achieving how you see your future!
