Moonshot Mindset
Exponential technologies enable our next mindset, known as Moonshot Thinking.
Most people and companies are happy with incremental progress in their lives. They are happy with 10% more revenue or salary or a 10% reduction in costs. The challenge is that if you’re only aiming for 10%, then 10% is likely what you’ll get. Why are many folks happy with 10%? Because 10% is anchored in an incremental and scarcity mindset.
But the world’s most successful people don’t act based on scarcity. They act based on their Abundance and Exponential Mindsets and pursue a 10x improvement in their lives. Put differently, they pursue a 1000% change, what we’ll refer to as a Moonshot.
A Moonshot Mindset lets us set goals that are radically difficult. Billion-person challenges. Objectives that sound crazy until they are suddenly achieved and thereafter are called breakthroughs.
Moonshots are ventures that require a lot of risk, new ways of thinking, and data-driven Experimentation, but they are also ventures that ultimately pay exponential rewards.
A Moonshot Mindset allows us to ask: What is the 10X version of my product? My company? My industry? Or my life?
Perhaps you came to this book not being interested in a Moonshot, just figuring out your Purpose or MTP would be good enough. But don’t discount the excitement of taking a Moonshot.
There are many benefits to having a Moonshot Mindset. Here are just a few to get you started:
-
When you shoot for 10X improvement and try to do something radically hard, you approach the problem you’re solving in a completely different way.
-
You understand that “the day before something is a breakthrough; it’s a crazy idea.” Your Moonshot Mindset gives you permission to think about and try crazy ideas.
-
If you’re a leader or an executive, an added benefit is that Moonshots focus and motivate your team, helping you to attract the best talent in the world.
