There are three distinct ways in which successful people think. Find out what those three ways are and how you can think more like them. Learn what Abraham Lincoln, Helen Keller and Thomas Edison all have in common.

1. HOW INCREDIBLY
SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE
THINK

2. How would you answer the
following questions:
I wish I had fewer problems in life.
I wish I didn’t have to struggle so much in life.
I wish I had the opportunities that other people have

3. If you agreed to any one of the above
statements, then you are not thinking like an
Incredibly Successful Person
What clues can we glean from incredibly
successful people?

4. #1 – I Wish I Had Fewer Problems In Life
• You learn some of the best lessons in life from struggles.
• Instead of wishing things were easier for you, become better.
• Learn what you need to learn to overcome the challenges in your life.
• Then teach what you know to others.
• Whatever you focus on grows, so focus on the solutions.
• Become more skillful.
• Get useful advice from a mentor.
• Attend that seminar
• Make the needed changes.
• Wisdom will help you defeat challenges and enable your growth.

5. Incredibly successful thinkers
are a lot like
Abraham Lincoln

6. Abraham Lincoln
16th President of the United States
• Born into poverty, struggled to overcome every setback in his life.
• His mother died while he was young.
• He accumulated debt and struggled to pay it back.
• Ran for office and lost more than once.
• A fiancée died, prompting a nervous breakdown.
• Ran for president of the United States
• Failed numerous times but did not stay down in defeat.
If all those setbacks did not face Lincoln, would he have
known how strong he really was?

7. #2 - I Wish I Didn’t Have To Struggle So Much In Life

8. Incredibly successful thinkers
are a lot like
Helen Keller

9. • Born blind and deaf, she never gave up.
• To her life was either an adventure or nothing at all.
• She said, “The world is full of suffering, it is also full of the
overcoming it.”
• Became an author, lecturer and activist.
Helen Keller
Author and Crusader
If she could overcome her struggles, what about you?

10. Brendon Burchard
New York Times Best-selling Author
Incredibly successful people make it their job to go learn what they don’t know.
“They take their current limitation and put it on their agenda as a job to do, as a thing
to figure out, as something to make happen.”

11. It all starts with your mindset.
• Our feelings and thoughts create the circumstances in our lives.
• If your thoughts are negative, you will not achieve success.
• If you can master your psychology, the way Helen did, then you
can master how incredibly successful people think.
• There is no successful person that did not struggle in their life.
MINDSET

12. The touchdown only comes when
you are facing a fierce opponents
on the field
In order to reach the summit of
the mountain, the prerequisite is
the valley
Who would David be
without Goliath?
Who are you shaping up to be if you only have an easy going, pain-free life?

13. #3 – I Wish I Had The Opportunities That Other People Have

14. There are only two ways in which change happens in your life.
Which one do you have control over?
Create something new
in your life
Something new will come to you
without you having to work at it all

15. • Incredibly successful people don’t wait for
circumstances to come looking for them
• They go out and find it
• Opportunities in life are created by the incredibly
successful thinker.

16. Incredibly Successful People are like Thomas Edison

17. • We are immeasurably grateful that Edison did not give up
after the struggle.
• It has been estimated that he failed over 1,000 times before
he created the light bulb.
• What if he just stopped trying, or what if he just kept
wishing that had the opportunities that the wealthy have?
Thomas Edison
Inventor

18. Jim Rohn
“Don’t wish it was easier, wish you were better.”

19. • Keep trying until you succeed.
• You must not give in to defeat.
• Each challenge in our life is an experience to learn from and grow
from.
• If there is no friction in your life, you will not grow.
• Whatever does not grow, dies
• If we have no struggle in our life, we will cease to exist as well.
• Don’t wish for more opportunities, go out and develop more skills.

20. • New doors open in life only after you rise from a previous defeat and begin to walk anew.
• When you refuse to let failures hinder your progress, you will eventually arrive at your new
destination.
Abraham Lincoln Helen Keller Thomas Edison

21. I HAD TO CHANGE MY
NEGATIVE THINKING

22. • I had to change my negative thinking about taking my life
after my mom died.
• I had to create new thought patterns to overcome
depression and skyrocket my self-confidence and achieve
my goals.
• A simple Postage Stamp helped me. That’s why I wrote the
book. I hope it can help you too.
• This is just 1 lesson out of the 21 lessons you will learn in
my book.
