The Edison Success Plan

The Edison Success Plan


Are you familiar with the Thomas Edison Success Plan?

I think that Tony Robins probably does the best job of explaining it.

He puts it into 4 simple steps:

¨ STEP 1: Know What You Want

¨ STEP 2: Take Action; Take Massive Action

¨ STEP 3: Notice What's Working and Not Working

¨ STEP 4: Change Your Approach and Try Again

It's that simple. Now you may want to argue that it's not that easy, but easy or not… it is that simple.

Everyone seems to get stuck on a different step. Step 1 is probably the biggest obstacle for most people. Most people have never really thought about what they want.

Since you're reading this and seeking information on how to grow your home based business I will assume that you've got Step 1 covered.

So let's talk about Step 2 - Take Action.

Here's what Action is not. It's not ordering books and audio courses.

That's learning and education.

Now while that stuff is essential to your business success, it does not count as Action. Sorry.

Here's what does count as Action:

- Building your list…
- Communication with your list…
- Marketing to your list…

Learning about those things does not count as Massive Action. Unfortunately it took me a couple of years to figure that one out.

So save yourself 2-3 years and take my word on this one.

Do The Thing… And You Will Have The Power!

Take some Action today.

If you need to learn something first before you can take action then learn it. But don't take 3 years to figure it all out before you do something.

"You don't have to get it right, you just have to get it going."
- Joe Schroeder

Learn something and then Take Action on it. Here's what will happen:

YOU'LL SCREW UP!

That's the Thomas Edison Success Formula.

Do something; Do anything; so what if you screw up; it's the best way to learn; Study something for 3 years and then try it and you'll still screw it up, so why not just start now.

The people that succeed in this world are the ones that are not afraid to fail.

Failure is not an option… it's a stepping stone to success.

So if you want to join Me, Edison and all the others that weren't afraid to get mud on their faces then step up to the plate and start swinging for the fence.

I appricate you being here and wanting more from life…
