It All Counts
Every thing you do counts toward where you will be in a year or five years. It all counts, regardless of whether it moves you forward or if it moves you backwards. It all counts. Everything you do or do not do adds up. This cumulative effect can take you to the heights or depths of life.
This is why we just keep working and moving forward as much a possible. Every internet marketing book I read counts. Every auction I list on Ebay for $3 or $100 counts. Every extra minute I spend working instead of day dreaming counts. My positive thoughts count. Unfortunately my negative thoughts count to. They count against me and take away from the good I might otherwise have had.
What is possible. Is it possible for you to own a multi-million dollar company in five years. Do you think you could actually be the president of a large corporation. OK, how about a 14 year old developing a multi-million dollar corporation. At 14 a boy started a website. Now as a 19 year old college student he runs his own corporation. See the video story at http://cnn.com It is in the “WATCH FREE VIDEO in the center column just below the main news story headlines. Watch the video, “Making millions between classes”.
In the next five years, what could you or I do. This was a student with homework, not a full time entrepreneur. If a 14 year old with some help from his dad could do this, what could you do? What could I do? A very interesting question.
Yes, the boy had a dad already in the business to help him. You or I can find help if we search for it. The kid probably got some financial help from his dad, it did not say. He got some help learning to import items. Again, something anyone can learn to do. He started small with only a few items and grew one or two or so items at a time. Everything counts.
