The Absolute Best Shortcut to Take to Get to Greatness

We live in an age of speed. Everything comes at us so fast and information seems to be available at a moments notice. The phone that I use is twice as fast as the old MAC G4 I’m writing on. (Don’t hate – I got a faster computer but I love my silver G4). We celebrate the young and successful and we want everything NOW.

With that in mind, I thought that I would share with you by far the best, most successful, most used shortcut to success -regardless of what personal or business goals you have.

Go ahead and get a pen and some paper … you're gonna want to write this stuff down to remember..

READY ?

DON’T SHORTCUT !!!! DO THE WORK !!!!

Yea.. put your pen back.

Can you quickly rise to a leadership position in your business ? Sure …

Can you come up with a better mousetrap everyone will want ? Why not..

Do some successful people take short cut ? All the time …

Will any of those scenarios play out for you? … Probably not. Don't try to take a shortcut when keeping on the path and hard work is really what is required.

"Just short cut over the tracks and you will be there !!! "

Oh, I’m not saying you're not special, or gifted, or blessed with a certain skill. I think everyone has something to offer the world that is unique. But, I will take the dude or lady who is willing to work harder and faster than the guy who is the MOST talented.

There is nothing in the world more common than a man with potential.

Things will still move fast…  Just know that they will move by you fast if you're not keeping up …

You want to get to your goals faster ? work twice as hard … Period.

I have a dear friend that went through a rough spot in his life and had about 50 bucks cash, two gift card to Target, and 40K in debt. In 30 days he was debt free and UP 45K. How'd he do that ? He worked like a man possessed. Well, a smart man possessed. Was it easy? Nope.

Are you looking for an easy way ? That’s OK; there is nothing wrong with wanting easy. Just don’t aspire to be great.

Michael Jordan once said that while he was with the Bulls many of the practices were harder than the actual games- he ran practice scrimmages at 110% - what happens after that ?

You get a shoe designed for you that sell out every year for 25+ years…

I don't even care for Jordan but that a lot of shoes...

Look : 
Find a way to be more efficient;

Design a better app;

Find a better way to market and sell;

Learn a create a new skill ;

When you get all that accomplished get back on the grind and work your arse off…

In fact find out what the next guy is doing and go twice as hard as him. …

Success and greatness require payment upfront...
