Go for NO!


When I signed up with beachbody, one of my assignments was to read 10 pages of personal development. I did not think I would benefit  much from them. But I am determined to make this work for me so, I thought what the heck I will do this. I bought the book "go for NO" by Richard Fenton and Andrea Waltz. Its has given me allot to think about.
Success<-------Me--------->Failure in the book this is what they say we all see as how we either fail or succeed! I think this is what I would have thought of how we make it. But as the book says.
Me----->Failure--------> Success Failure is the halfway point to success! Not a destination to be avoided! After failure if you keep going straight that is where success is!
I like this phrase "No doesn't mean never, It means not yet!" Research shows that sixty percent of customers say No four times before they finally say YES! Isn't that something. I would have never thought that was true. I know for myself I am more apt to move on when someone says no! And not ask why? To find out more about there situation. They use one of Thomas Edison's quotes  that I find really helpful. " I haven't failed Ten Thousand Times - I have simply discovered Ten thousand ways that will not work!" I believe that this is true! I now that it is hard to hear no. But if we just stop there, we will never see the great potential we could be if we stop. "Yes is the Destination and No is how we get there."
