Operate from a position of strength
It’s easy to operate from a position of strength when you are in a position of strength. It’s easier to take the decisions that suit you best when things are otherwise going well. You are willing to take chances, your confidence is high and you can unleash your creativity.
The challenge is, all these traits really need to surface when you are in a position of weakness!
There is probably not a man that has ever walked this planet that has not a had a low. When you are weak, it is hard to decide the way you would like to decide. You may end up deciding a certain way because you have to decide only that way…. You do not have much latitude! It may be because, any other option may seem too risky.
You can either play not to lose or play to win! You cannot win by playing defense perpetually. There must ultimately come a time when you must cast that move to attack, that you may win!
Ask yourself how you would decide if everything were going your way.
Do you have the psychological strength to take the same decision even when the odds are against you?
I don’t mean to suggest that you play mindlessly. However, strength is not a prerequisite to operate from a position of strength. But operating from a position of strength for sure is a prerequisite to get strong.
Operate the way you would like to… Always!!! You will win.
