Explore Possibility Thinking
“Nothing is so embarrassing as watching someone do something that you said could not be done.”
—SAM EWING
People who embrace possibility thinking are capable of accomplishing tasks that seem impossible because they believe in
solutions. Here are several reasons why you should become a possibility thinker:
1. Possibility Thinking Increases Your Possibilities!
When you believe you can do something difficult—and you succeed—many doors open for you. When George Lucas
succeeded in making Star Wars, despite those who said the special effects he wanted hadn’t ever been done and couldn’t be
done, many other possibilities opened up to him. Industrial Light and Magic (ILM), the company he created to produce
those “impossible” special effects, became a source of revenue to help underwrite his other projects. He was able to produce
merchandising tie-ins to his movies, thus bringing in another revenue stream to fund his movie making. But his confidence
in doing the difficult has also made a huge impact on other movie makers and a whole new generation of movie goers.
Popular culture writer Chris Sale-wicz asserts, “At first directly through his own work and then via the unparalleled
influence of ILM, George Lucas has dictated for two decades the essential broad notion of what is cinema.” If you open
yourself up to possibility thinking, you open yourself up to many other possibilities.
2. Possibility Thinking Draws Opportunities and People to You!
The case of George Lucas helps you to see how being a possibility thinker can create new opportunities and attract people.
People who think big attract big people to them. If you want to achieve big things, you need to become a possibility thinker.
