When is it okay to quit?

Imagine you've started learning piano - and already you are thinking: "This is too hard. Maybe I'll try the triangle ..."

Or imagine you've begun selling real estate. And you can't believe how many deals collapse!

You ask yourself, "Is it time to quit and look for something easier?"

The best time to quit is AFTER YOU'VE SUCCEEDED!

Why? Because, success is more about persistence than talent.

With practice you can probably do most things quite well - maybe not like an expert, but reasonably well.

And you don't know how much fun something is until you can do it reasonably well.

Until you can play a dozen songs on your piano, you'll never know the thrill of making music.

Until you have sold maybe twenty properties, you'll never know if it is more fun being a successful agent than being a starving agent.

Hang in there long enough to reach a target.

THEN decide if you'll quit.

It's like pizza. Until you've tasted good pizza, how do you know if you like pizza?

Of course, sometimes you try something and it is obvious, "This was a really dumb idea!"

But otherwise, it is all about persistence.

When you finish whatever you start, two things happen:
1. You consider carefully before starting something, and
2. You develop a success habit.

In a nutshell

Set a fair target, achieve it, then decide if you'll quit.

It's amazing how a little success can change your mind!

When life gets tough ...

How do you survive when life gets tough, through a personal tragedy? How do you hang on when you are grieving, lonely or broke?

You can only tackle your problems as you would climb a mountain ...

If you go rock climbing - and you get stuck on a precipice - you suddenly focus on the present moment!

All your effort goes into your next step. Then your next step. Inch by inch.

Eventually you find that the worst is over.

The same strategy works for everyday life.

When things seem desperate, you can only focus on the present moment. One problem at a time.

You take a step. You get a little confidence ... and take another step, and another.

Eventually you find that the worst is over.

If you were to worry about
a) everything you need to do in the next year, or
b) everything that could go wrong in the next year,
you might go bananas!

But you can handle one day at a time.

And whenever 24 hours is too scary, bite off five minutes at a time.

In a nutshell

All you can do is give your best effort until bedtime. Let tomorrow take care of itself.

Proof: Work Makes You Mad



Work = Force x Distance



W=FD



According to Newton,

Force = Mass x Acceleration



F=MA



By Substitution,

Work = Mass x Acceleration x Distance



Work = MAD

QUESTION:

How do these people get so rich?

I'm not talking about people who inherit wealth ...

... I'm talking about the people who make it!

ANSWER: It's mostly people who use their imagination to create things that become the richest people in the world ... people like:

* Stephen King who creates stories
* Oprah Winfrey who created talk-show history
* the Ted Turner's and Richard Branson's who create organizations
* Jerry Seinfeld who creates entertainment
* Donna Karan who creates "a style", and
* Bill Gates!

So you say, "If I'm not a creative genius, and I want to make more money, where will it come from?"

ANSWER: From your imagination, whoever you are.

EXAMPLE:

Let's say that you are broke and living on bread and water.

You ask yourself, "How can I eat some healthy food and save money?"

Answer: "I'll grow bean sprouts in my kitchen for virtually nothing!"

After a month of eating sprouts you figure, "I hate sprouts!"

"I'll sell my sprouts to the neighbours for a dollar a bag, and buy steak!"

Ideas solve your money problems!

EXAMPLE:

Let's say that you are working for a boss but you want to make money in your spare time.

You ask yourself, "What skills have I got, or what do I love to do, that people will pay me to do?"

You imagine yourself making personalised greeting cards or walking the neighbours' dogs.

You imagine yourself renovating your apartment or teaching aerobics.

You imagine yourself creating a website!

You try some ideas. Eventually one works.

Where did it all begin? In your imagination.

If you already have your own business - just like the richest people in the world - increased profits will likely depend on how imaginatively you answer questions like ...

* "How can I do more with less?"
* "How can I manage my time better?"
* "What do people really want, and how can I deliver it?"

And guess what!

Many of your ideas won't work.

Fortunately, you don't need every idea to work, just one or two.

In a nutshell

If money comes from your imagination, you may not need to work harder to make more money.

You may just need an increase in the quantity and the quality of your ideas.

And who knows ... you may soon join the richest people in the world!
