Your Best Summer Ever
This is a story of two contrasting groups of people. I have a friend who is part of a Mastermind group of four entrepreneurs. They meet every week to encourage and support one another and what strikes me is how productive they have been.
My friend was sharing how he went back and counted the projects and initiatives this little group developed over the summer last year. Between them, they developed three new books, launched several new websites, and one member launched a whole new enterprise.
While estimates are always risky, my guess is that these "summer projects" generated substantial revenue by end year end last year, and it will propel exponential growth in the years to come.
In contrast, I know too many people who work only part-time during the summer. Now, obviously, I want everyone to enjoy a relaxing summer but at what cost?
Every year I write that summer is the time to get a jump on your competition. Every summer I note that while most people are on vacation, this is the time to build your business.
NOW is the time to dream big! NOW is the time to organize your fall campaign, your special events and your end of year triumph! NOW is the time for action! As a coach, I am convinced that the work you do during the summer will largely determine your level of success for the entire year.
Yes, of course you should take the kids fishing, have some picnics and enjoy the long summer days. (And, in the Southern Hemisphere, avoid getting caught in the "winter doldrums.") But as Brian Tracy has advocated for years, when you work, work flat-out. Work hard! Work smart! Work with full concentration and full attention.

- Hi Zacman,
You are welcome to this great forum. How are you enjoying the cold. I prefer winter to Summer here in South Africa. The heat is so much that people nearly put on cloth here
