Description
I have always believed that mindset is everything. This becomes more apparent in this competitive world of ours. The business world is definitely high on the radar. I have started writing about mindset in my own column in the Malaysian Business magazine since 2016.
Now, I believe that these articles of various spectrums and themes deserve to be published as a book. As much as I would like to limit the scope and coverage of anything regarding mindset, this subject proves to be elastic and agile. I have discovered that mindset is a 'living organism' that lives within our brain and soul. Used wisely, achievements would keep on coming but if used imprudently, then we would stumble at every corner.
Being a living organism, it reacts in a manner which is beyond our imagination. If your mindset reacts effectively to changes in its environment, then you should be grateful. To be perfectly honest, our mindset should always be robust, flexible and agile. It has limitless potential and should not be confined within illusory walls. However, for whatever argument, once we decide, whether consciously or unconsciously to limit our mindset's growth and potential, then our mindset would not function in the best possible manner. Consequently, everything will fall back on emotions and expectations, which are the easiest things to do but not necessarily the most constructive thing to do.
In a nutshell, this collection of articles argues for the liberation and development of a strategic and structured mind to unlock the untapped value propositions and offerings in our business community. Given the competitive landscape of the business world, both at the domestic and international level, we really need personalities and policies that are smarter and more impactful. Everything boils down to the power of mindset. Just put your mind to it, and the seemingly impossible will become possible. The coherent, futurist, smart, intelligent, as well as impact-measured mindset, amongst others, are the new algorithm of excellence.
