Wise Wednesdays - There is No Magic Pill
Arriving at one point is the starting point to another.- John Dewey
I had someone call me lately and ask about accessing financing for her business idea. After some discussion she revealed that she had gone online and paid some good money to a company that gave her a list of grants and loans -- none which applied to her.
The lesson: Don’t look for a “magic pill” to solve your business problems. For those who think money is readably available read last weeks blog (Wise Wednesdays – No One Will Give You Money) .
This advice also applies to those who are looking for “the” great marketing idea to solve their problems.
Instead replace the “magic pill” attitude with a “one-a-day vitamin” mentality. That means that great results usually occur from what you do day-to-day. No fast and easy answers. Have a big dream but start off in baby steps. Be steady and deliberate in your implementing.
Just ask any successful entrepreneur.
Cheers,
Dominik
