Default You don\'t have to get it right, Just get it going!

I read this post off another forum and really thought you guys might find it very helpful.

Hey fellow Warrior,

Just thought I'd like to share a little inspiration with you.

"Gurus" - please don't judge me by this post [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

It'll be great for those who can't seem to get anywhere
Those who suffer from IDEA overload especially.

I started marketing back in 2003. (I've been full-time since 2005)
Yea, yea.. I can tell you that "I've been in your shoes" and
that "I've tried so many things but didn't get anywhere".
Too much of a cliche' so let's get straight to the story.

In early 2005, it struck me.

I heard a quote from a motivational speaker named
Mike Litman (MikeLitman.com). Some of you may know him and some
may not.

He stresses out a lot:
"You don't have to get it right, you just have to get it going".

Now, it may not be him who said this quote in the first place,
but I sure am glad I heard that.

The reason why I wasn't getting things done and why I
couldn't even see my first dollar come in, is because I
had so many product ideas & so much information which
wasn't being utilized.

I was a perfectionist and I wanted things done right.

I had this long list of ideas and I didn't know where to start.
But luckily, from that quote, it opened up a new world for me.
I changed the way I approached things with my business.
It changed the way I made decisions for my business.

I tackled each idea by asking myself:

1. What is the easiest project to complete?
2. What is the fastest project to complete?

And generally, which idea will lead me to my ultimate goal?

It was soon after when I made my first $5 sale.
It wasn't much, but just to see that I've actually given VALUE to
someone, makes me proud.

I still remember the day when I jumped in the air shouting
"Yesss!!!". My mum heard it, my sister heard it, the neighbours heard
it...that's how happy I was. It gave me hope where quitting was
the only option if this hadn't happened to me.

Let me ask you, which of these two choices would you take?

1. Start with a big project which you think can bring your lots and
lots of cash

OR

2. Start with a minor product idea which you think
will be faster and easier to accomplish, but won't get you
as much $$$ as the bigger project?

I'd say the second.

Why?

1. Because you feel a sense of achievement - that you've completed
an actual product of your own or it could be your first optin page.

2. You start to build MOMENTUM which will ultimately give you more
motivation to keep going with your business.

Anthony Robbins mentioned the power of "Chunking" in one of his earlier books, called "Notes From A Friend".

Here's what it says:

"The most successful people are those who understand the power
of 'chunking', who don't bite off more than they can chew at one time.
In other words, they break a goal down into biteside pieces,
achievable 'sub-goals' that lead toward the ultimate success they desire

But it's not enough just to set subgoals; you have to celebrate the
achievement of each small step. This will help you build momentum and
develop habits that will gradually turn your dreams into reality."

- Anthony Robbins.

I also remember Mark Joyner mentioning the power of chunking in
one of his books.

Now, I don't know about you, but that to me is real powerful.


Get your project going!

* It doesn't matter if the sales copy sucks - you can make improvements
along the way. Just make sure YOU GET IT GOING.

* Who cares if your graphics looks like a dog's pile - you can make
improvements along the way. Just make sure YOU GET IT GOING.

* It doesn't matter if your software script isn't perfect - Check out
Mike Filsaimes Butterfly marketing script. I bought it on launch day
and the script back then needed some major work to it. But at least
Mike GOT IT GOING. The script is one powerful tool now.

* Your ebook doesn't have to be perfect. If you're getting a lot
of refunds, for some reason, then you know that your ebook
needs changes. It could be the title of your ebook, the content
you shared or whatever. It isn't hard to email that person who did
get a refund and asking he/she "what made you decide that this
ebook isn't right for you?". You now can made changes to reflect
what others have said. Just GET IT GOING


Bottom line is - If you have those great ideas you want to turn
into something (a product, a network, a list etc), then:

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

Hope this has helped you someway, one way or anyway [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

To your success,
