You’ve been saying these words wrong
Pitbull believes that things happen for a reason. If you spill your cup of coffee in the morning, are you going to allow that to ruin your day? He suggests that maybe that cup spilled for a reason. “Maybe you weren’t supposed to be in traffic, or not supposed to be at a stop sign,” he said. Rather than getting angry or frustrated about the disruption to your day, “keep moving and pour yourself a new cup.”
“Now take that analogy and apply it to your business,” he said. Are you going to allow setbacks and challenges to ruin your day or make you angry? Or are you going to enjoy the journey? After all, “you never know where your journey will take you,” he said. “Enjoy the ride! Have fun, keep learning. That’s what keeps it exciting and spicy.”
“So for everybody out there in business,” he said as his parting words, “get ready for it. It’s an amazing journey. But you’re going to hear a lot of no’s, won’ts, can’ts, don’ts, crazy, stupid, impossible!” But, according to Pitbull, we’ve been looking at these words the wrong way. “No is a new opportunity. The word can’t is can. The word don’t is do. The word won’t is won. The word crazy… well it’s just crazy–that’s why we invest in ourselves.”
