What's The One Thing To Move YOU Forward

Have you ever wondered, "What's the one thing I can do to move my business forward?"

Do you know what the answer is?

No one thing by itself will move your business forward. As irritating as that may seem, let me explain and I'm sure you've heard of the phrase...


"It's the little things that matter"


What's The One Thing To Move You Forward

In Jeff Olson's book The Slight Edge, he best describes the little things as...

Imagine you have this large spin wheel which weighs a few tons and you have to turn it around one revolution by yourself. And, once you begin to move it just moves a few inches. You continue to push on, and it moves a few more inches. The next, it moves a whole foot. The next move pushes it 90 degrees. And, before you know it, you have turned the spin wheel one revolution.

Which push do you think made the difference in making the one revolution turn? The first one, the second, or the last? Well, there is no particular push that made a difference. It's all of them that mattered.

Each and every push that turned it just the slightest amount, led to one full revolution. With your business it is the same thing. Everyday you are doing the little things, which may seem insignificant. But, with the power of compounding effort, those continuous small tasks lead to success.

So, if you are still wondering, "But, what can I do?" Here it is... Do everything, every single day of that which will contribute to moving your business forward. For the networkers, that means contacting prospects day in and day out, even though each one may not turn into a distributor. Those efforts will not go unrecognized and they will eventually lead to success.

So, keep on keeping on.

When a businessman or a businesswoman touches success they are bound to leave the ground they are standing at I say to keep your lawn evergreen you've to keep nurturing the soil beneath, keeping in mind the tiniest aspect of business dept that brings in money please make sure that dept has all your energy into moving it forward as you move your big business forward. In this way success multiplies rather than being dormant after years or a single generation.
