DEVELOP YOUR CHILDLIKE WONDER

Adults can learn a lot from children. Children dream big and have a sense of wonder about the world.

You can tap into your childlike wonder to believe in your entrepreneurial dreams, says Mark Victor Hansen, author of 'The Richest Kids in America'.

Here’s how you do it:

1) Pay attention to all the times you think or act creatively.

Do you dabble in something just for fun?

“Creativity causes our talents to surface,” Hansen says.

2) Write down all the things you do well creatively.

“Include things like finding a new solution to an old problem, focusing your energy on bettering yourself or doing something that just makes you or someone else smile,” he says.

3) Review all of your talents and decide which one brings you the most joy.

Hansen asks, “Which one, when you are fully engaged, makes time and space disappear? What is one activity that you look forward to, lose yourself in and excel at that is your true divine imagination at work?”

"My definition of success is the difference between where you are and the use of your full potential. Each of you has a multiplicity of talents, and you need to exercise all of your potential to reach your dreams," Hansen says.
