YOU Are the Shiniest All

In the same amount of time it takes for you to watch a video or read an article or unroll a social media thread about how artificial intelligence will change your life and career —

— someone else has actually changed their life and career (and that of a client) by making a sale using an email, text, pencil, phone or a plain ol’ handshake.

It’s the same for that “new model” or “next company” or “trendy training” or “ancient wisdom” or whatnot.

For three decades I’ve watched people “getting ready to get ready to get going” and constantly resetting the starting clock because “the next thing” was about to disrupt the market.

Oh, and it did: It disrupted plenty of the market *makers* most of all.

It disrupted them...
From doing what they can do now.
From applying what they do know today.
From moving forward on their current path.

One year ago people were “waiting for the market to change” while others made more sales than at any time in history.

This year, people are “waiting for something shiny to change the market” while others are making more sales than at any time in their history.

See what’s really getting disrupted?

Stop seeking the shiny.
Be the Shiny.
