Great day!
I hope you had a great Christmas and Holiday Celebration with your family! I'm sure you all are planning for a great New Year too! It will be great... won't it?
Question... What comes to mind when you hear ... "you should have a long-term perspective?"
You know... often times most folks have a 'short-term' view of their lives and businesses... looking for the instant results...the flash in the pan goal achievement. Why? because in the last several years... we've become accustomed to this fast-paced, instant everything world that's right in the palms of our hands. I mean we see it everywhere...
"Quick weight loss"
"Easy and Fast Money in your Account in Under 60 minutes"
"Instant Leads for your Business NOW!"
Our technologies are moving in quickly! What once took us 2, 5 or even 10 years to finally figure out... is now done in under 90 days! Amazing... thus we've trained our psychology to look for those quick results and when we don't get what we want... we then question..."Why isn't this working for me?" As a result, we stop trying and begin to look for another way or even worse ...an easier way. Listen, if there's an easier and faster way to do things... I'm all in...heck ... Why not!
However, here's the challenge: Even in 'TODAY'S FAST-PACED WORLD' ... if we don't give the things we are trying enough time to work... we'll end up disappointed.
So, what's the solution? What's the quick fix? Sorry, there isn't one. However, what does work for the most successful people on this planet and probably other planets; people like; Jeff Bezos or the late Mother Teresa ... is having a long-term perspective.
Yes... you can place an order...'in less than 2 hours' on Amazon and get it here by tomorrow... however, the ability by Amazon get it to you 'fast' ... takes a long-term perspective, planning and deciding to make that even work!
One of the greatest Violinist of our time ... Itzhak Perlman was giving a concert and at the end of the concert a young lady, an aspiring violinist herself, came up to Perlman and told him that she would give her life to learn how to be as great as he was and his answer to her was... "I have given my life."
Today's 15-Minute Huddle ... What's Your Perspective? We discussed some of the above thoughts. Again, the most successful people have a long-term perspective which in turns...makes them ... well... some of the richest people on this planet! Mmmmmmm ... Something to think about.
Enjoy the recording, have a great holiday week and hurry on back here again tomorrow.
Great day Now, Mike
