Hi, Nice to see you again. Feel free to leave a question in the comments if you're unsure about something. I'll do my best to get back to you asap!
So this lesson comes from Brian Klemmer who I just discovered a few weeks ago …bought all his books and have been devouring them ever since.
So the question for today’s lesson is…
Are you carrots, eggs or coffee?
Brian explains it like this…
When you put carrots in hot water, the water changes the carrots.
When you put an egg in hot water, the water changes the egg.
But…
When you put coffee in water, THE WATER CHANGES.
And that how leaders are too… When leaders are in a situation, they change it. They don’t allow themselves to be changed by it.
This reminds me of my favorite quote from Ghandi “Be the change you want to see in the world.“
In the process of absorbing all kinds of network marketing training, I have heard over and over again, the speed of the leader is the speed of the pack. This is so prevalent in our businesses.
If you notice the people who are consistent and have a sense of urgency about their business are the ones who actually get to the level of success they desire and deserve.
If you’re team is going too slow for you…maybe that’s because you’re going too slow as well. They are following your lead.
Do any of you experience that? If so…tell me about it below.
I know I do…so lately I’ve been going “faster”…so that I can be the coffee it the water and change my environment and my team.
I like this post! I joined a 30 day challenge to help me maintain the sense of urgency you talk. Thanks for reminding me that I want to be coffee… oh and I love that quote by gandhi too!
