You cannot change the power of the wind, but you can set your sail in a way that will compel you to your port much more quickly and accurately. Business success is a process. Converting prospects takes time and the continual practice of planting wheat is always a challenge in a world where taking time and exhibiting patience are passing away. It is always a good day to make a change.

Refuse any longer to grieve what might have been. There is another bus running shortly and that bus might be the greatest ride you have had to date in your business career. Don’t miss out on the blessing ahead because you are enamored with the curse of yesterday or last year. It isn’t worth it and besides, business opportunities are all around us. We just must be ready at the stop to get on and ride it to our destination. You know -the place where you may just become famous.

Do not let your frustrations and closed doors dictate to you what you can do and what “they” will do if you just show them how much you care. Remember, people do not buy because of their NEED, they buy because of what they WANT. Give them what they WANT so you can eventually give them what they NEED. In doing so, you will ensure both yourself and them that what they are getting from you and your product is going to at some level – change them for the good and in that scenario, everybody wins.

Lack of direction or purpose is a major problem that we must scale if we would even sniff business success. Somebody says, “I don’t have enough hours in a day to do all that I need to do.” But that is strange. All of us have the same amount of time to do what we THINK is our duty. The real deal is – a 28-hour day will not remedy the struggle of the man or woman who does not have a clear purpose on why they do what they do and how they do what they do.
