Focus on your people and watch what happens to profits.
Focus on service and watch what happens to your product.
Focus on others and watch what happens to you.
Focus on today and watch what happens tomorrow.
The career, the wedding, or even the day may not be going “as planned.”
Welcome the turbulence.
It just may be the sign you’re headed in the right direction.
Have you noticed that Apple is only one not convincing us to buy iPhone 5?
Look at the growth of your business, church, service, book, blog, or idea.
Chances are this growth is not coming from your promotions. Instead, it’s probably due to your tribe sharing your story.
“Wow” your people and then let them share.
People are the last thing we haven’t found a way to SPAM.
Pinterest? Check.
Facebook? Check.
Email? Check.
Twitter? Check.
YouTube? Check.
Fantasy Football? Check.
Pre-Ordered the iPhone 5? Check.
The Voice? Check.
Did the ball move forward? Yes or no?
The question we must pose to our yesterday’s is did they get me closer to where I want to be 5 years from now?
Your joy 5 years from today hinges on what did or did not happen yesterday.
Don’t allow the small noise of today to steal from your future music.
This is not a promo to stray from the social media experience, not have fun, or not find time to relax. It’s just your friendly reminder that September 18, 2017 should not be a surprise when it gets here.
I finished a book yesterday called Love Works by Joel Manby.
Joel ends the book encouraging us to focus more on our BE goals instead of our DO goals.
I had never heard it put this way and thought it would serve well for a Monday post.
Answering the questions of who am I, what’s my purpose, and where am I headed will get you to doing what you always wanted to do.
You’ve got to BE before you can DO and you’ve got to DO before you can HAVE.
It’s easy to have a product or service. On the other hand, its a reward to have a product or service that stands for something.
