Get ready to enter the Thrive Time Show 3, 2, 1, Boom!

All Thrive Nation, we are fired up and so excited to be here with you today because I know that this is the day that the Lord has made

and that you should rejoice and be glad in it because it is always profound to see when you are above the ground.

Is it not always profound when you're above the ground there?

Absolutely, I mean you've got to celebrate the victories you have in life and being alive is a victory to start.

That's like victory one, boom.

What we're doing is we're breaking down characteristics of super successful people.

Over the next seven shows, these are common denominators that I've noticed amongst super successful people.

And because I pretty much only interact with successful people, I thought you know what I'm going to do?

I'm going to go and start writing down things on my notepad as I observe them and I'm going to write it down.

And then I'm going to do a seven part series about them because some of the things are obvious. Some of them are not obvious.

Some of the things are obvious to me but not obvious to everybody else.

And so here's Character Attribute Number 5, I see of super successful people.

To achieve your goal, you must have the mindset that you've already achieved it.

I've seen this, so Thomas Edison, the famous inventor who invented the first practical light bulb, recorded audio and the motion picture.

Now also creating General Electric, he says, here genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration.

But I think he already saw himself as the inventor of the light bulb before he was.

I think he already saw himself as the creator of a huge company before he was.

And so he just put forth the work effort, the work ethic needed to deliver on that mental vision he had for himself.

So I'm going to start with you Z.

Oh, do you ever do that? Do you ever like visualize yourself like you've already done it when you start a project?

I mean, do you ever say, okay, the auto auction, I'm starting it.
