Listen "32- The Secret to a Winning Strategy"
Episode Synopsis
I won something yesterday! It’s pretty cool, really. It’s a high quality microphone attachment for Apple devices like the iPad, iPad mini, and iPhone. It’s called the Zoom iQ5. If it sounds like something that you might find useful, you can check it out at www.goldenspiralmedia.com/iq5. That’s a link that will take you to B & H Photo and Video.
Would you like to know how I managed to win this really cool microphone? Here’s my secret. I entered the sweepstakes. That’s it. Now, you may not think I’m being serious but I am. The reality is that if I would not have entered the sweepstakes, I would not have won the mic.
And so it is with our goals. What is your goal? Lose weight, publish a book, start a podcast, develop a tutorial, learn how to crochet, build a birdhouse, restore that old car in your garage? None of those things will ever be done if you never take the first step, and all of them can be accomplished if you do.
Now, of course, there is a big difference in taking the first step in winning something, and taking the first step to giving up an addiction. I recognize that. However, I think the main difference is the way we look at it while we’re standing in that starting spot.
Let’s think of these things, and the journey we’ll go on, like we would a Monopoly board. We all start out on the space marked GO. What else is on that square? An arrow that is pointing us in the right direction. The very next space after GO is Mediterranean Avenue. It only takes one step to reach that space and the cost is only $60. The last property on the end of the first side is 9 times farther away and will cost twice as much. If you desire to reach the end of the next side of the board you’ll have to travel 19 times farther and pay over 3 times the amount as Mediterranean Avenue. The end of the third side is 29 times farther at over 4 times the cost, and the final space, Boardwalk, is a distance 39 times farther and will cost nearly 7 times more than Mediterranean Avenue. ...
