And I Always Thought A Dog Was a Man’s Best Friend…

Turns out Dogs are a great friend.

But “To Do Lists” seem to be my best friend. Not only do I get more accomplished. I get it done quicker and better when I have it written down as a constant reminder to myself.

When you have your own writing staring you in the face to do something. You get it done just to scratch it off the list.

Today my list consisted of getting “small” things done I’ve been putting off for not only weeks, but an ENTIRE YEAR. I made up some comb bound books for my cold calling session I’ve been putting off, that I’ll go on tomorrow at 10 AM Sharp. But I made a few calls and finally took my car in to be inspected for some damage I’d done to it OVER A YEAR AGO. The good news is, I did something I told myself I should do. The bad news is, the damage is WAY worse than I thought it would be… *sigh*

So I urge you. This week:

Begin Making To-Do lists. And follow through. Make sure you have it on you at all times. So you can write things down as you think of them. Then you have no more excuses for forgetting–and therefor not taking action.

Start your To-Do list with something you’ve been putting off for a long time(days, weeks, or in my case over a year!) and do it. No matter how small.

Once you begin to Take Action you begin to build moment. And eventually the inertia keeps you achieving things just out of habit.

Tomorrow should be a fun day! I’m going to be taking my new Mogul Smartphone on the road!

I’ll be supply video throughout the day updating on my cold calls! Should be fun!

The successful people force themselves to do the things the unsuccessful people DO NOT do.

This coming Wednesday is a day I’ve set aside to make COLD CALLS for the advertising company I work for.

In spirit of massive action:

So in addition to just “going out” and calling on businesses. I commit to gaining at least 1 new project on that day. If I do not get at least 3 project lead, I will continue to go out full time everyday until I achieve this.

One of my biggest downfalls in my ability to achieve massive financial success has been my willingness to give up if it gets hard. Or not giving 110% every time.

NOT ANYMORE!

I will be busting my ass every moment to gain as much business as humanly possible. This will not only help build integrity and momentum. It will also help financially with commissions.

I’m going to leave you with a quote from my #1 Sales Mentor:

“Obstacles can’t stop you. Problems can’t stop you. Most of all, other people can’t stop you. Only you can stop you.”
