Get out of your comfort zone to reach new hieghts!

Are you ready to take your business to new heights?

People who are successful have become so by operating out of their comfort levels. They take calculated risks; they work longer, harder, and smarter. Successful people do not wait for things to be perfect for them in order to go out and make more money or climb that corporate ladder!

Success comes by making things happen; by actively going out and doing that what others find difficult or "too much" to do. Successful people do not whine and over analyze the circumstances; they just go out and do what it takes!

Let me give you an example. One cannot watch TV with out a fitness commercial that shows super hot, hard, and sculpted bodies. What is the difference between those people and those who are out of shape? The difference is that the people on the commercial went that extra mile, ran longer, ate right, and went beyond their personal comfort zone. I can bet you it is not contraption that they are marketing that has anything significant to do with their physical appearance.

It does not matter what activity you are doing, if you do not go that extra mile, you will never be great at it.

Look at successful people in your industry. What makes them different? Why did they have so much success and not you? If you are say that that person was at the right place at the right time, you don't have as much money as he/she did, etc. etc....then you have already failed at your business and have failed to realize that that person was a mover and shaker. That person probably woke up earlier, went long distances to satisfy his customer, and took that extra time to understand his prospect and market, made plans, and so on.

That person could have easily opted to be an average... a one of many. -But that person decided that he/she did not want to be "just like the rest" and understood that it took extra effort to stand out!

I am sure there are many things on your to-do list that you want to do; you know that by doing such things you will stand out....but each time you come to that task, you procrastinate...you make excuses...it not the right time, oh! It won't work; I will do it tomorrow...etc. STOP! Just do it. Get up and make that call you were afraid to, go out when others in your field are staying in. Make that extra effort.

Make it a habit and you will never be complacent again, as you would have tasted the sweet nectar of success and one you have tasted what success feels like you would not want to go back to tasting the bitterness of failure!

Good Luck

Till next time....
