This is the first day of the rest of your life



I went to a full day of motivational seminars yesterday that included Lou Holtz, Colin Powell, Zig Ziegler, and Rudolph Giuliani. Since I am a nice guy I will save you the 8 hours of your time and give you the top points from yesterday:

These will be in total random order, but you should be able to take a few things from this:

People don't go to the store for a 1/4" drill bit, they come for a 1/4" hole, make sure you sell the hole, not the drill bit
Don't forget to re-sell your previous customers, it is much much cheaper to keep them than acquire a new one
You can get everything you want in life if you give others what they want first
encouragement is the fuel that hope runs on
Opposites attract,.....then attack
Your either growing or your dying
If you raced a pregnant woman, the best you would finish would be third
Focus on what you have, not what you don't have
This is a true story I made up
Have meaningful relationship with people
If you get knocked down, only you can pick yourself up
Don't hate people
Turn the TV off
You get what you give
It's not the big things, it's the hundreds of small things that make the difference
Be honest and do the right thing!

Pick just one of the above and do it TODAY! SERIOUSLY...TODAY!

OK, now since I motivated you, feel free to send me a check for $149! (insert smile here)
