November 5, 2008 How Winners Think Differently...In This Issue:Feature Article: "How Winners Think Differently" Quick Tips: "How To Stop Assumptions Overwhelming You" Fast Facts: "Which Country Has The Highest Income Per Capita?" “How Winners Think Differently”'Winners', otherwise known as people who achieve their goals - whether they be in sport, business, their jobs, or any other area of life –tend to think differently to those who don't achieve their goals in ONE key respect.Winners think they will win BEFORE they've won. That may seem obvious... but think about it. Think about your own life and how easy it is for you to believe that you WILL achieve something BEFORE you achieve it. Is it always so easy? Do you tend to think you WILL achieve your goal... or that you MIGHT achieve it? Or do you really only HOPE you will achieve it? There can often be a massive difference between how we act when we're 100 percent confident about something... and when we're unsure about it. And, unsurprisingly, how we act translates into our results. Does that always mean that if you think you'll win... you will necessarily win? No, we need only consider sport to know that even the most confident athletes don't always win. But while it doesn't necessarily follow that if you think you'll win you will win... it's almost always the case that you will only win if you think you will win. * HIGHLY RECOMMENDED * “How an Ordinary Manager Transformed a Struggling Business On The Verge Of Collapse Into a $40 Million Company”Here’s a shocking, yet true, story... At the start of last year, a good friend of mine took the job of Chief Technology Officer (CTO) at a small technology company. The company was five years old, but hopelessly unprofitable. It’s backers – a venture capital company – were growing impatient with the company’s abysmal performance and ordered the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) to appoint someone who could commercialize the company’s technology – so they would finally have a product to sell. Otherwise, the venture capital company would no longer fund the business. My friend was excited about the job. He was a bit of a risk taker, and despite the pressure, looked forward to helping the company bring its product to market and build it into a profitable business. But there was one problem. A big problem. The staff, the CEO warned him, were “incompetent and lazy.” In fact, one of the reasons the CTO was being hired was to get rid of the “dead wood.” “Frankly,” the CEO told my friend, “you’ll probably have to fire the lot of them.” ==> Discover what happened next... “How To Stop Assumptions Overwhelming You”Sometimes we feel overwhelmed about things... that aren't even true.

Purchasing Power Parity is based on comparing the cost of the same item in different countries. PPP considers the cost of certain benchmark items, such as a loaf of bread. If the cost is lower in one country than another the PPP of the first country is higher. Among various research groups, Luxembourg has consistently come out top in terms of both nominal GDP and GDP at PPP. Other countries that seem to place well are the United States, Norway and the United Arab Emirates.
