Day 5: How to seek progress using a mindset

How do we seek to make progress in our lives every day or as a driving force in our lives?  First, it is your mindset.  Knowing that living a flawless life means everything you do is flawless and the people you count on are flawless.  This is unhealthy and unrealistic!

Instead, think every day that when you wake up life carries an opportunity to grow in success and failures, and you will learn from both.  For your mind and skills to grow, you will need to open your mind to other possibilities.  A place where other people are as smart if not smarter than you.  This will allow you to react as a sponge and take in more information, to learn more.  Second, every day you must be adaptable to people and situations you have no control over.  Anyone, can make mistakes, learn to change, find a new corrective direction, and be adaptable.  People around you make mistakes so you will need to be adaptable.  Thirdly, be persistent.  When you run into struggles and challenges, a progressive mind knows only to persevere.  If you grow, you need to be fighting the good fight all the time.  No one who gives up in life or when facing challenges ever grows into someone who can be relied on.

Your progress depends on your unwavering character inside.
