You Sleep When You Die
you sleep when you die...and other unpopular thoughts from retail marketing leader, Jordan Zimmerman
Think about this: 100 years from now, virtually everything and everyone on this planet will be gone. Most of the people reading this blog will be long gone. Our friends and associates will be gone. Many of our children will even be gone. Life as we know it will have moved on, leaving us behind as nothing more than a memory…a legacy of what once was.
You must have a plan in order to achieve any goal, no matter how big or how small. And that plan must be actionable. You need to set smaller goals along the way that help you reach the big goal, like stepping stones for success…
There’s only one legitimate excuse for procrastination: TIME. It’s the only thing we can’t create more of. Time is an investment. What we do with it today affects our future.
If I had to sum up my life in one word, it would be insanity. Yes, INSANITY. Anything else in life is just normal. ‘Insane’ doesn’t have to be a bad word. We’ve been programmed throughout our lives to think ‘insanity’ is a bad thing, but ‘insane’ just means you think different…act different. And in reality, that’s what we should all strive for.
My last post talked about business goals. It focused on forgetting about anything and anybody that got in the way of achieving success in 2010. No matter what you’re trying to accomplish in the business world, you must have a detailed ‘business plan.’
What about your other goals? Should you make personal resolutions too? If you want to accomplish them, of course you should!
