Leave the Raid in the Cupboard...You WANT Bugs in Your Business!
Happened upon an article by Jim Rohn in my files today and it immediately started me thinking about Diane Hochman's "Cockroach Marketing" training.
Let me ask you a question...
Have you ever been working on a project and hit a barrier
or block that stopped your progress?
I have...many times.
You know, you're humming along, and all of a sudden you reach a point where you're at the end of your knowledge base, don't have access to a tool or the technology you think you need, the money to buy something, etc.
That's the time you need "bugs" in your business!
Mr. Rohn and Mrs. Hochman each have their own unique way of describing this concept, and the
two blended together create a premier marketing philosophy that, if followed, can lead to success and abundance...all that you envision.

The Ant Philosophy
By Jim Rohn
I think everybody should study ants. They have an amazing four-part philosophy.
Here’s the first part: Ants never quit. That’s a good philosophy. If they’re headed somewhere and you try to stop the, they’ll look for another way. They’ll climb over, they’ll climb under, they’ll climb around. They keep looking for another way. What a neat philosophy, to never quit looking for a way to get where you’re supposed to go.
Second, ants think winter all summer. That’s an important perspective. You can’t be so naïve as to think summer will last forever. So ants are gathering their winter food in the middle of summer.
The third part of the ant philosophy is that ants think summer all winter. That is so important. During the winter, ants remind themselves, “This won’t last long – we’ll soon be out of here.” And the first warm day, the ants are out. If it turns cold again, they’ll dive back down, but then they come out the first warm day. They can’t wait to get out.
And here’s the last part of the ant philosophy. How much will an ant gather during the summer to prepare for winter? All he possibly can. What an incredible philosophy, the “all-you-possibly-can” philosophy.
WOW! What a great philosophy to have…the ant philosophy.
Never give up, look ahead, stay positive, & do all you can.

Procrastination (sometimes) Pays Off!
Under normal circumstances, I don’t recommend procrastination
We know that letting things go, putting things off etc. is not a good habit to get into.
We’re told to “strike while the iron is hot”…”opportunity knocks but once”…
You know, all those wonderful clichés that make us feel guilty when we decide to do it “tomorrow”
But once in a blue moon…which, if you check, happens only once every 2 – 3 years…procrastination actually pays off!
This, dear reader, is one of those times.
I know you’ve heard about (maybe even listened to) the marketing legend, Joe Schroeder.
He’s quite a guy…very uncommon…and not everyone’s cup of tea. That’s OK.
But the one thing that you can’t deny is that he’s a marketing genius! (just ask Mike Dillard and Diane Hochman)
Here’s the thing…
You know that Mechanics of Wealth package that I’ve been telling you to get?
The one you’ve been putting off ordering?
Well, Joe and I were talking yesterday afternoon and he told me that over the next month or so, he’s gonna be sending all kinds of neat stuff to the people that order it.
CD’s, booklets, postcards, etc. All stuff to help YOU with YOUR marketing…both online and offline.
And the best part…
No charge! Zip! Zilch! Nada!
Knowing Joe as I do, if I were YOU, and hadn’t ordered the Mechanics of Wealth package yet, I’d head on over to The Million Mind March to get it ASAP…like today!
Just $12.95 shipping for the CD’s and booklet…and now, all those extras mailed to your house over the next month and a half!
Procrastination pays only once in a blue moon…don’t put this one off!
BTW...Don’t forget to put my name, Cathie Heath, in the comment box so I can send you a very special audio training. Free, of course!
Oh! And in case you were wondering, I don’t make a cent from Joe’s Mechanics of Wealth package. As a matter of fact, neither does Joe!!

Quick Tip Saves Editing Time
Splitting audio and video files can be challenging and time consuming.
Shortly after I began doing videos I came up with a little trick, and
using this technique will allow you to edit your files in a fraction of the time.

How Big is YOUR Elephant?
That may seem a bit odd to you, but the humble elephant has been used in quite a few analogies…
The elephant in the middle of the room…
The chain around the elephant’s leg…
And the one I'll talk about here…
How do you eat an elephant?
Of course, we know the answer to that one is
“One Bite at a time”, right?
But I’d like to suggest that before that first bite is attempted, you must cut it up first. The bites must be made more manageable.
So I ask you again…
How big is your elephant?
The size of your elephant, or goal or challenge, will determine how long it will take to cut it into pieces and “eaten.”
Let me explain what I mean…
Let’s assume that your goal is to reach a $100,000 annual income.
That’s your “elephant”.
How many retail sales, how many people working for you (or in your downline), costs of doing business at that level, profit margins or bonuses and residuals…there’s more, but you get the idea.
Now work backwards.
Cut it in half, quarters, etc. until you reach the increment that you can REALISTICALLY see yourself doing in the next 30 days. This will take time, determination and being really straight with yourself, but once you get to what you can honestly see yourself accomplishing in the next 30 days, break it down into weekly and finally into daily target activities.
Those are the things you need to do each and every day
WITHOUT FAIL in order to reach to your ultimate goal.
Following these steps can reveal approximately how long it will take you to reach your goal as well.
In our example of $100,000, if in a year you can get to $25,000 (and this is net income, don’t forget), then it will take 4 years of consistent effort to reach your goal.
Be sure to use some kind of tracking system (even if it’s notations on a calendar page) to record what's actually going on.
Without tracking, you’ll have no way to gauge your progress and could end up becoming discouraged.
In a nutshell...

Your next step is to determine what your business will look like when you’re at that level.
Really break it down.

Now work backwards.

One warning, however...many business owners spend hours, even days, breaking down their long term goal into short term goals, manageable steps, and daily actions...then DON’T TRACK their activities and results!!
Be sure to use some kind of tracking system (even if it’s notations on a calendar page) to record what's actually going on.
Without tracking, you’ll have no way to gauge your progress and could end up becoming discouraged.
In a nutshell...
- Determine the size of your ultimate, long-term goal
- Work backwards, breaking it into honestly manageable daily activities
- Track your activities and results
Using this method, it doesn’t matter.
You can have it cut into bite sized pieces in no time!
