Introduction
Unlocking your potential relies on embracing change and transformation as natural elements of growth, rather than viewing success through a fixed mindset.
Story
A couple of years ago in Hawaii, I had lunch with my son, who seemed upset because his friends had left him out of something important. I could see the hurt in his eyes. When I asked if he wanted my perspective, he said yes—and that conversation turned into a valuable lesson about change and growth.
The Exercise
I grabbed a napkin and pen to start an activity with him. I explained that energy drives the universe—it can’t be created or destroyed but simply changes form over time. Together, we reflected on the qualities he cherished in his friends, exploring what made those bonds so meaningful.
Finding the Transformation
As we talked, I encouraged him to think about people he knew who displayed similar qualities to those he valued in his friends. To his surprise, he realized those attributes hadn’t disappeared—they were simply expressed in new and diverse ways. This shift in perspective allowed him to see the richness in his surroundings and understand that nothing had truly been lost; it had only transformed.
Success Clue
The key to success is recognizing that loss is often a perception created by the mind. When you feel you’ve lost something, take a step back and reflect on its essence. Where else does it exist in your life? This awareness can shift your mindset from scarcity to abundance.
Single Principle
The fundamental idea here is sustainability. Nothing truly disappears or comes out of nowhere—everything transforms. This principle applies not just to relationships but to all areas of life. Embracing this concept helps you see challenges as opportunities for growth rather than obstacles.
Characteristics Traits
Characteristics Traits
It’s important to identify the qualities that matter most to you—such as kindness, humor, or creativity—when forming relationships. Often, these traits are present in the people around you; they just need recognition and gratitude.
Who Else In Your Life
Take a moment to think about the people in your life who embody the qualities you admire most. Acknowledge their traits and appreciate the connections you share rather than dwelling on what you may feel is missing.
Is There Anybody Else
When you experience loss or disappointment, pause and reflect on the individuals in your life. Who exhibits the traits you value most? Often, you’ll find that those characteristics are already present, even if they appear differently.
What Went Missing
Once you’ve identified the qualities you value, ask yourself what feels absent. This question can shift your perspective and help you see that nothing is truly missing—it has simply changed.
The Illusion
The concept of loss often clouds our perception, making us feel as though we lack something. In reality, nothing is truly lost; everything is in a state of continuous change. Recognizing this helps us appreciate the transformations happening around us.
The Form
Understanding how qualities manifest is essential. When you acknowledge the traits you admire in others, you realize they haven’t disappeared—they’ve simply taken new forms. This perspective allows you to value the richness in your current relationships.
Example
For instance, when I set a goal to earn $50,000 per month, I initially saw it as a massive challenge. However, I shifted my perspective to recognize the worth I already possessed within myself. By valuing my skills and traits, I achieved that goal within a month.
FAQ

Reflect on your relationships and experiences. Write down the traits you admired most in those moments and look for them in your life today.

Embracing this way of thinking allows you to cultivate a mindset of success and discover your capacity for growth in all areas of life. Remember, growth is a continuous process, and every moment is an opportunity to appreciate the abundance around you.
