Tipping Point And Being An Extraordinaire

by Leave a Comment

Success is attainable for everyone. When someone reaches their tipping point, that person decides that now is the time to take the leap.

Not all of us get to reach the tipping point. Some of us reach the tipping point more than once. The tipping point shouldn’t be viewed as a make or break situation. The tipping point is a way to go from normalcy to extraordinaire. You may have to reach your tipping point multiple times in order to become an extraordinaire.

Becoming an extraordinaire is easier said than done. There are two main ways to become an extraordinaire.

The first way to become an extraordinaire is by excelling in what you do differently from the competition. Being different from the competition can go from having a specialized service to a purple door at your nearby brick and mortar store.

The second way to become an extraordinaire can land you a multibillion dollar enterprise. This one is a lot more difficult to excel at since it requires a lot of thinking outside of the box. If you can find a problem in society and improve the situation of that problem or put an end to that problem, you’ve become an extraordinaire. Social media dramatically enhanced the way we communicate to each other. Social media allows us to stay up to date with celebrities, experts, friends, and others as well. You don’t have to create a social network to be a billionaire. You just need to find a way to solve a big problem in society. When that problem gets solved, people will be flocking over to the new product or services that allows them to solve that problem.

Being an extraordinaire is no easy task, but it all begins when you reach your tipping point and take the leap.

A Forced Leap

Going from middle school to high school is a forced leap. It’s mandatory, and you have no choice. The legal age to stop attending classes in the U.S. is 16 years although I don’t recommend stopping.

There aren’t many forced leaps. School is one of the few things I can think of where you have absolutely no choice. You have to take the leap.

There are few forced leaps, but you will know what they are when you encounter them. However, these forced leaps must make you more willing to take your own leaps. Practicing for a team is a forced leap. On your off days, are you going to take the leap?

Forced leaps don’t happen a lot. Voluntary leaps happen many times for some people and few times for other people. The more leaps you take, the more you will learn. If you took the leap wrong, you’ll learn from your mistake. Then, you’ll be able to eventually take that leap successfully.

You have to be willing to take risks in order to move forward in the business world. If it scares you, it’s worth taking the leap.

Why People Don’t Take The Leap

We all want to see how ideas soar. We all want to implement our ideas and make our business the best one around. We all want to be successful. We all want to see our own products on other people’s shelves. We all want to accomplish our goals.

We all want all of those things. The list goes on and on. However, most people don’t get those things. We all want those things, but only a few people get them. The reason we all want those things is because they are hard to achieve. Everyone wants to make it in the top colleges because not everyone gets to make it in college. I see more business people saying they graduated from Stanford, Harvard, Yale, and all of the other Ivy League schools.

Most people don’t get those things because of fear. There are many people who fear failure, and that’s why there are so many inspirational quotes about conquering the fear of failure. I tweet inspirational quotes 4 times every day, and when I look around for good inspirational quotes, a lot of the inspirational quotes I read are about conquering fear.

These people fear their potential. That may be the last thing people fear about, but it is true. People do fear their potential. The reason people fear their potential is because we like the constants; the things that remain the same. In order to make your business grow and become a very successful entrepreneur, you have to be willing to take the leap.

When frogs leap from lily pad to lily pad, there’s a risk that the frog misses the lily pad and falls into the water. However, if the frog stays on the same lily pad, it won’t be able to survive. The frog will have to look for insects to eat and water to drink (the water will be easier for the frog to find).

If you’re business isn’t doing as well as you hoped, or you know there is more potential, it’s time for you to leap to the other lily pad. Even if you fall into the water, you’ll be able to swim out and go for the same lily pad again. With persistence, you will eventually take the leap and land on that lily pad.
