George B. Thomas talks about adopting a victor's mindset to overcome challenges. He emphasizes resilience and solution-oriented thinking as the way to face difficulties head-on.
If I would have chased it, if I would have been determined, if I would have said I can succeed, what would have that meant in your life? Now I'm not saying to do that because you're looking backwards. I'm saying to do that because the next time that you feel like you want to shut down and give up, I want you to have that as a lever or a switch that you can pull and say, not this time. Gotta be solution oriented or have a solution oriented approach. Rather than dwelling on the problems which many of us have, many of those of us who have or want to have a victor's mindset focus on finding the dang solution. We must approach challenges with a mindset that asks the question, how can I overcome this? We must approach the challenges in our life with a mindset that asks the simple question, is it possible.
