Tapping In

"Inches make champions" - Vince Lombardi

In Napoleon Hill's book, Think and Grow Rich, he tells the story of prospectors that stopped three feet from gold. As they gave up and felt they lost the gold mine, they sold off their equipment to a local. As the local knew about fault lines in the area, he educated himself on the subject and started digging merely three feet to the side where he struck one of the most lucrative gold mines in the west.

The question to ask yourself is... how often are you three feet to gold? Here's what I mean by that, how often are we stopping short with the lack of persistence instead of pushing through the ceiling to the next level.

The eternal principle of small and simple things make great things happen is and always will exist. It is the same as a horse race. Even when a jockey wins by a nose... the prize money is 10 times greater!! So just doing that little extra, the small things that no one else does will put you miles ahead of the competition. Now remember the competition is not others, yet the competition is your own self.

Recently with a friend of mine I have created a life accountability partnership. In which we meet every Sunday for one hour to mastermind and set SMALL personal goals to achieve in the next week to come. As we add the small things up over time with persistence, great accomplishments and joy will come into your life.

The secret is to tap into the growing energy of motivation that will keep you going the extra few inches, and keep you from stopping three feet from gold. The principle of small and simple things is credible in all realms of life Spiritually, Mentally, Physically, Socially, and Financially.

The b side to the truth today is as Casey Persinger said, "KISS, KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID." The ability to keep things simple and pure will allow you to tap into your inner self, your inner true'ness' and allow you to have great changes and progression in which ever realm you feel a need to increase. And remember, there is never an arrival, only a journey!
