Huh - you're probably thinking. That doesn't make sense.

Well maybe it does.

The year 2006 has just ended.

And 2007 is off to a fast start.

But - did you take a breather? Did you reflect on what sales strategies worked and what didn't work for you last year?

Did you prepare a written flight (sales) plan for your trip through 2007?

Is your plan so clear and concise that you can visualize it? You can see how much you'll earn in 2007. You can picture yourself winning specific and BIG accounts. You can see yourself winning sales rep of the year in your company.

You can see you and your family going on the most fabulous vacation ever.

If you can't see it because you didn't invest time to imagine it - don't think it's gonna happen. Your chances are better at winning Lotto!

You can't do this on the fly - you need to slow down, maybe for a day, to get the ball rolling.

Look, action follows thought. Stop and think about this statement. Action follows thought.

If you agree with me on that point, well you should spend some time thinking about where you want to be at the end of 2007 - personally and professionally.

It's this simple! Think it. Plan it. Then do it.

If you can imagine it - you can achieve it.

Slow down to think it and plan it.

Then you can stomp on the gas pedal to get it done.

It's okay for you to desire to become the person you're capable of becoming. Why settle for so little when you can have so much?

I read this in the current issue of Food and Wine Magazine:

"No matter how well-established they are, great chefs never stop searching for new ways to improve their cooking."

Likewise I believe, sales superstars, never stop searching for ways to improve their selling. Naturally - I count them as my best customers. They keep buying my information products searching for new ideas. Obviously they keep coming back because they have learned it's wise to be with the Mise.

Go take a look over your shoulder.

Did you achieve everything you wanted to achieve last year?

Did you strike the perfect balance between mind, body, and spirit - which is spelled out with incredible clarity in "The Science Of Getting Rich?"

There's only one person holding you back from extraordinary success and wealth.

So, what's it going to be in 2007? More of the same or radical thinking?

I prefer some radical thinking and I hope you do too.

Slow down to think it and plan it and then pick up the pace.

Let's go sell something . . .
