The psychic entrepreneur
My friend asked me the other day if I had any psychic abilities, specifically if I could see into the future. It was a really weird question but my friend is a relatively weird person. My response was something along the lines of “no, but I can predict me smacking you in the head very soon.†But it made me wonder, how psychic are successful entrepreneurs? Whenever you start a new venture you are taking a huge leap of faith, believing in something that doesn’t exist. Something that you can only imagine in your mind and believe it will soon be a reality.
What is the difference between a psycho and an entrepreneur? Mostly money. If I said to you, that space right there (pointing), I’m going to destroy whatever is there and build a building as tall as the eye can see. You would think I was weird. Now if I promised to build a building twice, and never built anything, now I’m a little psycho, wouldn’t you think? But if I promised a third time, and finally on the third try built a building you would consider me a genius.
The building always existed in my head. Being an entrepreneur means ignoring the current reality and listening to the voices in your head that tell you “you will do it.†Is that psychic ability or psycho ability?

Interesting question Ejovi… Have you started writing another book yet? I’d say that the amazing entrepreneurs are visionary instead of psychic. Throw in some psycho tendencies of bull-headed perseverance and that person might just make it one day. That’s my humble opinion, anyhow.

Achiving goals is something that make human beings progress in two different levels; personal and professional
When you dream of a new plan or a new biz using all the abilities that you may have using your intuition (future vision) plus your experience, makes the try on a mix of psycho and psychic effort that hopefully will make you achieve your goals.
Making your dreams come true gives sense to your life by making tangible what is inside your heart.
What else can be done in life apart from your dreams?
psychic+psycho=intelligence!
