How knowledge will get in our way of becoming successful

There are two types of knowledge that I want to talk about in this post that will get in our way of becoming successful and how to over come these obstacles, which will increase our likelihood of becoming successful.

The first part is our book knowledge.  What we read and learn in a classroom or on our own will set the stage for how we view new concepts or ideas.

The second part is our street knowledge.  This is more along the lines of what we have experienced both good and bad.  This usually is a larger factor than the book knowledge of how we view new or unfamiliar ideas and concepts.  Especially if we have had a bad experience, we are more reluctant to do it again.  Our emotions are more so tied to the street knowledge than book knowledge.

 Whether it be book or street knowledge, we will face obstacles in our minds that will limit our creativity or success.  If we have prejudged an idea going into it, do you really think that it will matter if that idea could change your life?  No!  Because regardless of the outcome we have already determined in our minds that it will or will not work! 

It is really too bad that we do this!  We possibly make a large mistake by not implementing an idea or concept that could change our life forever.

What we need to do first to change.  NEVER PREJUDGE AN UNFUMILUR OR NEW IDEA.  New ideas are what have made people great or had tremendous success.
