You don’t have to know a lot of things or do a lot of things to be successful.
Emerson once wrote, “The law of nature is, DO the thing, and you shall have the power: but they who do not the thing have not the power.”
Want to be successful? Hang around someone who embodies your definition of success and do what they do.
The problem is we’re looking for hidden codes when success has already left the clues we’re looking for.
Think bigger. Act smaller.
You’re either growing or being passed by.
Study.
Study often.
Read.
Re-read.
Learn.
Learn again.
Stretch.
Be stretched.
While you’re here always think about going there (a place of growth). Champions are “here” equipped while being “there” conscious.
Someone is currently thinking about how to do what you currently do better…and chances are they’re on to something.
Don’t enter the races you’re seeing. And, careful, there are plenty of recruiters for those races. They want you to be like them. Grouped. Cooped. Stationary.
Create a race.
Be you.
Become your ideas.
Change the world.
Leave the hour, the day, and this life different than you found it.
Who needs help?
What can we create to help them?
When would help be beneficial? If the answer is not now go back to “who” and start over.
Where will they find our helpful art?
Why will they care about our help?
No question is greater than the others, but all must be continually addressed.
Sub par.
Fair.
Mediocre.
Decent.
Average.
Good.
Great.
Superb.
Remarkable.
The best.
You’re going to have to choose one of these as your pathway.
The market will then, in turn, choose you in accordance to what you choose.
