The new buzzword in business is “defensive pessimism”. This American
concept is the opposite of positive thinking - executives are
encouraged to come up with worst-case scenarios and then develop
strategies for dealing with them.
Product meltdowns, PR disasters, financial scandals,
corporate catastrophes...let your imagination run wild as you
dream up the ultimate nightmare. And then try to make certain it
never happens.
I believe that, like most business fads, this is simply
insane. The shortest road to disaster starts with negative thinking.
We focus on where we’re going - and if we’re focusing on failure,
failure is what we’ll get. This is why life never gave that old
misery-guts Tony Hancock much to smile about!
Far too many people practise “defensive pessimism”
instinctively, even if they have never heard the jargon. My toughest
task when trying to motivate business teams, and even athletes, is to
shatter the habit of negative thinking. Doubt and anxiety are the
automatic response to a challenge for people who have trained
themselves to accept failure.
I refuse to accept failure. So should you. Turn the jargon on
its head, and force your mind to use “aggressive optimism”. Dream of
the very best that can happen. Picture the best possible outcome in
your mind. And start planning how to make this dream a reality.
Every daydream is like a prayer. You would never pray for
disaster - so why waste your energy imagining it? Focus like a laser
on success, and burn a path straight to the top.
