A little motivation for mod developers out there!
« on: May 07, 2012, 10:30:34 PM »
Success through repeated failure does work!

I personally don't think you should let anyone get to you, or knock you down.
And if you fail, don't give up, keep trying till you get it right. You'll sleep better knowing you gave it your all,
and when you wake up, you'll brush off the dust, learn from you mistakes, and start again in a brand new mindset.
After all you cant solve a problem in the mindset that created it, so try to persistently start fresh and recharged.
Always take away something positive from all your experiences, and remember the only person who can stop you is yourself.
Sometimes you got to do things by faith and not by fear, so use a little intuition, don't tune it out, because its probably right.
Figure out what you love to do and do it right, and kick ass at it. Don't play safe, develop the courage to venture into deep waters.
Everything which is worth doing, is worth doing badly at first, if in the process it means you can eventually turn it around, and finally master it.
But always remember that you miss every shot you don't take! So why not take it? What do you have to lose, that you can't get back many fold as a result of trying.
All great athletes failed over and over again, but they had a great passion and determination, and that's why in the end they ALL succeeded.
Most importantly remember that you got to stay true to yourself, and love what you do, cause that's what will make it all worth while, and meaningful.
Get the idea planted that you can do better than people think you can, because only you know yourself, and are the only one who can change you.
You cant let failure get to you or take it too seriously, laugh it off. Just ask yourself what you can do better each time around.
Even if its just a little bit better each iteration, eventually it'll tip the scales and convince even the harshest critics and the stingiest skeptics.

Also don't be afraid to think differently or swim against the current, because if you manage to create something unique, and you do it right, you'll win every time.
Because people are rebels at heart and they're always looking for something unique, which isn't boring, something they haven't experienced or tried before.
The harder you work, the luckier you'll get. Don't complain or blame others, take 100% responsibility for your actions.
This way you'll go from victim to victorious, and you'll even feel totally in control, knowing you alone did it. Wouldn't that be great?
You got to ask yourself, why are people keep saying no to me, and learn to turn that into a yes.
For a while nobody would play WODX either, but after a while that all changed, and they found it to be something that spoke directly to them and catered to their tastes.

Also find yourself in the right group, cause those around you affect how you see yourself. It comes down to two types of relationships,
the toxic ones which drain you, and the nurturing ones which challenge you to excel and better yourself. Surround yourself with positive people.
Some people don't want to see you win, and would like you to stay on their progress level, because it might make them feel like losers without ambitions.

Remember energy flows where your focus goes! So focus your energy on your dreams, and ask where do you want to be and by when?
If you don't even think about it, or don't plan it out, nothing will ever get done, and you'll stay in the same place. Try to think about your
ambitions just before you got to sleep, they'll get replayed in your subconscious while you sleep, and often times you'll have a solution when you wake up in the morning.
Just find some inspiration out there, and use it to pull yourself up.
Cut out the middle man who will always try to reap the profits, riding the backs and hard work of others! Don't let others walk all over you or take any shit from anyone! Face the problem head on!
Try to find someone who's already on the other side of that wall, and learn to speak to him directly, even through a crack.
Sometimes you'll find that there are shortcuts if you know the right people and you can convince them that you're not just full of hot air, but can deliver!
Also Picasso once said: Good Artists Borrow, Great Artists Steal. So in a way there's some truth to it.
If there's something you'd like to do, hang out with someone who's already done it. Learn how they did it, and apply it.


(P.S. I hope the above is enough pep talk to get you a little more motivated. Let me know if you need help)

I don't worship the devil. Jesus is Lord, friend. He died for your sins. He will forgive you if you just ask.
