Have you ever thought that you might not be achieving the success that you want because of the way you perceived your environment?
Two women, identical twins, whose father was an abusive alcoholic were studied when they were in their adult years. One woman was an alcoholic. When asked why she drank like she did, her answer was that she had no choice, she was a result of her upbringing.
When her sister was interviewed, it turned out that she abstained from all alcohol. When she was asked why she stayed away from all alcohol, her answer was the same as her sisters, that she really had no choice because of her upbringing.
And that is the dilemma. Your environment does seem to have a role in who you are, but how is it possible that these two women had such opposite outcomes?
Our reaction to our negative environment can go 2 ways:
#1: We play the “poor me” card and become the victim.
#2: We get Mad and say, enough is enough.
What we have found is that many people go through both stages, first the “poor me” and if they finally have enough, will then get mad and change their world.
All this is fine and dandy, in the theoretical world. But how does it really work, in real life? Take a few minutes of your time to see for yourself an unrehearsed example of what this is all about. If you don’t think your environment affects your success in life, whether in your personal life or business live, this will be an eye opener.

At my fast-paced work environment, things often go awry. When that happens, I say to myself and my team, “Stuff happens, let’s deal with it”. These words always work well for me and my team since it implies two things:
1) no-one is perfect, mistakes happen;
2) we solve problems as a team.
We stay away from feeling like victims or from pointing fingers at others. Our team focuses on solving problems. I’m lucky to be part of such a dynamic group of people.
