Conception of the Mind

Thoughts are nothing more than signals of energy.

Your thoughts extend beyond your physical body, they affect everything you do and the results you get.

Warren Buffett was for a time the richest man in America, not by working hard, but by investing smart. Starting with very little capital, he compounded his investment over many years at yearly rates far above stock market averages. He achieved this with a limited degree of analysis but consistently applying a few insightful thoughts.


William Levitt, was the master builder of Levittown, In the 1950s, he was the king. No detail was too small for his attention. He would personally pick stray nails and extra chips of wood from construction sites to make sure his construction team maximised all available resources. He sold his company in 1956 to ITT for $100 million, which is equivalent to a few billions today.

Then he was distracted.
He retired.
He married the wrong woman.
He moved to the south of France and lived on his new boat with his new wife.

William Levitt, went back into business. And he proceeded to go bankrupt. He was out of the business for twenty years, he came back, and he was not the same.

No matter how accomplished you are as a leader,
No matter how successful you are in business,

You have to remain vigilant about the details of your industry. You can not be competent based on experience alone. To stay ahead of the game you need to be retrained regularly, to apply the current technology and the latest research procedures.

Your Thoughts is something you have to work at to maintain your lead.

"The only thing that separates any one of us from excellence is fear, and the opposite of fear is faith.  I am careful not to confuse excellence with perfection. Excellence I can reach for, perfection is God´s business." -- Michael J. Fox
