I’ve been thinking, “What would I do if I’d won the Powerball $100 million jackpot”? Yes, the odds are like being stuck twice by lightening in your lifetime. But heck, 2 people did.
After the obvious, help family, maybe go on a trip etc. What then?
Would it affect my thinking? How I ran my business? Assuming I kept it.
Yes, I would keep working. To me helping leaders run a better business is a calling. It creates ripples which positively affect lives.
And it keeps me mentally sharp.
My epiphany winning would remove fear. As money was no object, I wouldn’t be risk averse.
I’d have no hesitation reaching out to more people not particularly caring if they responded or not.
“Some will, some won’t, so what!”
I know I can’t please everyone and that not everyone likes me. So what?
My self esteem isn’t bound up in what others think of me.
But, I didn’t win the $100M. Heck, I didn’t even buy a ticket.
But I can look at my mindset and act as if I had won.
I have a lot of expertise and experience to share with ambitious leaders who want to run a better business and live a better life.
So my shift in thinking is, “Get out there and talk to more people. What’s the best that can happen?”
How would you respond if you’d won $100M?
Let me know
