71。　Look　inside。　
Most　of　us　wait　to　discover　who　we　are　from　the　impressions　we　get　from　other　people。　〃Oh　do　you　think　I'm　like　that。。。〃　If　we　get　positive　feedback；　that's　great。　It　helps　build　us　up。　But　ideally；　your　journey　should　be　internal。　Travel　deeper　and　deeper　inside　to　find　out　your　own　potential。　Your　potential　is　your　true　identity。　It　only　waits　for　self　motivation　to　e　alive。

74。　Do　something　badly。　****　
Sometimes　we　don't　do　things　because　we　not　sure　we　cannot　do　them　well。　We　feel　that　we　are　not　〃in　the　mood〃　or　our　energy　levels　is　not　are　the　right　state　to　do　that　task　that　we　have。　So　we　put　it　off　or　wait　for　inspiration　to　arrive。　We're　so　afraid　to　do　things　until　we're　sure　we　can　do　them　well；　we　end　up　not　doing　anything。　This　is　the　source　of　all　writers　block　btw。　〃If　a　thing　is　worth　doing；　it's　worth　doing　badly。〃　If　your　not　motivated　to　do　something　you　know　you　need　to　do；　just　decide　to　do　it　badly。　Add　a　little　self　deprecated　humor。　Be　edic　about　what　your　doing。　And　then　enjoy　what　happens　to　you　once　your　in　the　process。

The　principle　of　〃visioneering。〃　You　cannot　do　anything　you　cannot　picture　yourself　doing。　Visioneering　is　just　another　word　for　picturing　yourself。　Once　you　make　the　picturing　process　conscious　and　deliberate；　you　begin　to　create　the　self　you　want　to　be。
