John: Thanks for your perspective on continual improvement. The concept and your post are timeless. And as you and your readers have pointed out, the concept applies to every aspect of life. We don’t have to do it all at once; we will make progress moving forward a little ever day.

@Sundi – Of course I did – all this stuff is just life with different jargon wrapped around it anyway isn’t it?

I bet you never thought you’d provide a parenting tool through your blog, did you? I’ve been trying to teach my 10-year-old son about goals and how they need to at least slightly push you or they aren’t worth the time you spent thinking about them. I’m going to try the threaded fingers on him and see if he’ll finally get it! Hey, if mom can build a business surely I can get my 10-year-old to step out of his comfort zone!

Create an amazing day!

Thank you for the little bit at a time thinking. I’m currently at a fulltime job trying to subsidize my own stuff. The big plan gets overwhelming and I know that the things I do are compatible with the idea of a steady bit at a time system.

Steady is the key point; remember the tortoise and the hare.

Just read this today (Monday morning) and it was the jolt I needed to get moving at work. It’s a rainy cool Monday and my dog and bed are just a staircase away. I was very tempted to get a magazine and just snuggle with the dog — but now I’m going to make my “to do list” and get going.
Thanks!!
PS: Can I uncross my hands now? : )

Great post.
I definitely agree that it’s the little things that will get your business to the next level.

Most people say that you can replicate success by using tried and true methods. It works in some cases but if you want to take your success to a whole new level, you need a big idea.

But, you donâ€™t sit there and meditate and suddenly one big idea comes out…

No, really. It doesnâ€™t happen like that.

There are some who can generate brilliant, problem-solving profit-booming ideas, instantly. However, the rest of us mere mortals need to keep trying and pushing.

You sit down, and generate 50 ideas. Or 100 ideas. Or even better, 300 ideas. And from there, I bet you that at least one of them will be good enough to explode your business to the next level. Thatâ€™s the foundation â€“itâ€™s always a numbers game.

Funnel vision is a concept by Jay Abraham, the basic idea of which is this: if you look outside your own field into another domain, whatever is there â€“their cliches and norms â€“take them and apply them to your field and your products will soar.

You can generate ideas to boost your business in 2 ways: from the inside looking out, or from the outside looking in.

You can generate a lot of ideas using these two techniques. Listing the norms may take you a while, and just by twisting them you already have 20-30 ideas off the bat.

Great advice!
That worried feeling can drive you, but so can the feeling of you winning a new client or making a big sale!

You have to build your business day by day, step by step, this is very true!
Unfortunately nowadays people have less time so they want results fast and easy but thats not the way to go…

I think we need more exercises not to forget the lesson
