Hi Everyone,
I was just re-reading a really good book called...Trump 101. The latest book by the Donald.
If you do not have it...GET IT! This one is must reading for anyone in business or thinking of starting one.
Here is a great passage (edited for space) from this gem...
Think Trump Scale: Bigger is Better
Thinking small when you could think big limits you in all aspects of your life. People are capable of great things, but not if they don't envision themselves achieving greatness. Start with your own mindset.
Think about the goals you want and the steps you need to achieve them:
- Do you have big or small plans?
- What is limiting or holding you back?
- How can you expand your vision for the future?
You can develop an expansive mindset that lets you paint in bigger, bolder, more colorful strokes.
Here's how...
Before you start any venture, while it's still in the idea stage, imagine ways to increase its size, scale or scope. Don't worry about being realistic or practical.
Explore whether any of your ideas, or parts of them, could be achieved. Identify the hurdles that could stand in your way.
Examine how to overcome those obstacles and the costs it would take.
If the timing for your expanded vision isn't right, the cost is too steep or other challenges are just too great, consider implementing parts of your ideas that you can achieve now. File the rest away because things always change, and what can't be done today could be a piece of cake tomorrow.
More sage advice awaits you in Trump 101.

Until next time...
