Free 25.000 $ Idea for You
Here is a free 25.000 $ idea for you. It comes from a true story and it has helped a lot of people achieve their goals. I am one of the person to whom this has meant a huge change in my results, and I have, after trying it and using it my self, recommended the idea and helped other people to use it and benefit from it as well. Now you can read the story and if you like it you can try it for the next 30 days to see if it will change your life and move you closer to your goal, as it did for me.Here is the story, please enjoy it. The 25.000 $ Idea.The story goes that the president of a steel company had granted an interview to an efficiency expert named Ivy Lee. Lee was telling his prospective client how Lee’s firm could help him to do a better job of managing the company, when the president broke in to say something to the effect that he wasn’t at present managing as well as he knew how. He went on to tell Ivy Lee that what was needed wasn’t more knowing – but a lot more doing. He said, "We know what we should be doing; now if you can show us a better way of getting it done, I’ll listen to you – and pay you anything within reason you ask."Well, Lee then said that he could give him something in twenty minutes that would INCREASE HIS EFFICIENCY by at least 50 %. He then handed the man a blank sheet of paper and said: "write down on this paper the six most important things you have to do tomorrow." Well, the man thought about it, and did as requested – it took him about three minutes. Lee then said, "Now number them in the order of their importance to you and the company." Well, that took about five minutes. And then Lee said, "Now put the paper in your pocket, and the first thing tomorrow morning, take it out and look at item number one. Don’t look at the others, just number one, and start working on it; and – if you can – stay with it until it’s completed. Then take item number two the same way; then number three and so on until you have to quit for the day. Don’t worry if you have only finished one or two. You will be working on the most important ones. The others can wait. If you can’t finish them all by this method, you could not have finished them with any other method. And without some system, you’d probably take ten times as long to finish them – and might not even have them in the order of their importance. "Do this every working day," Lee went on. "After you’ve convinced yourself of the value of this system, have your men try it. Try it as long as you like, and then send me your check for whatever you think the idea is worth." The entire interview hadn’t taken more than a half-hour. In a few weeks, the story has it that the company president sent Ivy Lee a CHECK FOR 25.000 $ with a letter saying the idea was the most profitable, from a money standpoint, he had ever learned in his life. And it was later said that in the five years this was the plan that was largely responsible for turning what was then a little known steel company into one of the biggest independent steel producers in the world. I hope you enjoyed the story and that you would like to try it in your own life. There are two reasons you have to make the list before going to bed. One is that by making the list in the evening, your subconscious mind can "prepare and work" on the things you have to do while you are sleeping, you can say that you dream about it, so that you might have solved some of the problems you will be facing all ready. The second thing is that when you make the list in the evening, you know what you will be doing the next day, and you can start right away, you do not have to make up your mind first on what you will have to do.
