Everything you do or neglect to do, has an impact on your business.
The impact is always positive or negative. Nothing in business is neutral. A casual remark, the decision not to attend a meeting, a quick email or social media update – All of these will impact your business, to a lesser or greater extent. Everything counts.
Here’s what my mentor, Jim Rohn, used to say:
Success is neither magical nor mysterious. Success is the natural consequence of consistently applying the basic fundamentals.
Failure is not a single, cataclysmic event. You don’t fail overnight. Instead, failure is a few errors in judgement, repeated every day.
The simple things you do every day are far more likely to influence your eventual outcome, than the less frequent major decisions you apply so much thought to. Get the basics right and repeat them every day.
So simple.
So magical.
So easy to do.
So easy to ignore.
