The Iron Man Movie was pretty good. I gave it 2 1/2 stars out of 4. I didn’t love the ending, but I thought it was pretty good overall.
Something I’ve always been big on is relying on yourself for the goods, not other people.
Hopefully you’ve all seen “Batman Begins” with Christian Bale. My favorite part in the whole movie was when they were sword fighting on the ice and Raz al Gul tells Bruce Wayne that his fathers death was not his fault. It was his fathers.
Bruce gets mad, and says “He didn’t have any training!”
Raz yells back “Training is nothing, WILL is everything. The WILL to ACT!”
And so it is with us. The will to take action is what separates winners from losers.
The good news is that you don’t have to do a whole lot to separate yourself from the pack.
You are probably aware of the 80-20 principle. I love it and try my hardest to live by it. It says that 20 percent of our input creates 80 of our results.
It’s a proven phenomenon from hundreds of years ago, and still holds true in just about everything we do in our lives. 20 percent of our customers give us 80% of our income. 20 percent of our tasks at work net 80% of our results. And on and on.
So, in my short post today, I just wanted to give you some food for thought.
What is the most PROFITABLE thing you do during the day? What makes you the most money. (Hopefully you said marketing!) Once you have established that one most profitable task, take some time, make sure you can do spend at least 20% of your time on that. Delegate and delete items that get in the way of you accomplishing that.
You’ll see big results in a hurry,
