Good Morning MOJO,

A few weeks ago, I was talking to a group of people about what it takes to experience a quantum leap in your business and life. During the presentation, one of the things I talked about was needing to make radical changes in order to experience dramatic breakthroughs. After I was done, someone came up and introduced me to the book I mentioned in Monday Morning MOJO a couple of weeks ago, The Slight Edge. He said the book contradicted a lot of my comments about needing to make radical changes to have better life or a better business. I must say I was intrigued at how you could have a radically better life, and be massively more efficient and profitable in your business without making some dramatic changes. Right after that I listened to The Slight Edge on audio book.

The Slight Edge was all about making small changes and maintaining them for a lifetime…that is what is going to make the difference…that is what was going to get you more of what you want in life. Not some radical change. It used examples such as how going for a walk once will not make a big difference in your health, but going for a walk everyday for a lifetime will. It talks about having a salad versus a slice of pizza for lunch…again do it once and will have no impact, but do it long enough and it will have a huge impact on your health. Read 10 pages in a book like Think and Grow Rich and it will have very little impact on your life…but if you read 10 pages in a good book every day for a year, you will read 15 books and that will have a MAJOR impact. Fold a piece of paper in half once and it is not very thick…continue to fold it over and over again 50 times and it will be tall enough to touch the Sun.

A few weeks later I was giving that same talk on what it takes to experience a quantum leap and I changed it a bit. I told everyone all they needed to do was make some small changes to have a better life and business…the key however, is you need to commit to those small changes for a very long time…perhaps a life time. Now that it RADICAL!!!!!!

The Slight Edge is a GREAT book. If you are looking to have a QUANTUM LEAP in the quality of your life, relationships or business this is a must read/listen to book. Here is a link to Jeff Olson’s audio book, The Slight Edge… http://www.amazon.com/Slight-Edge-Jeff-Olson/dp/B000NU3KS6/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2/103-1085872-9815049?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1177905623&sr=8-2

Make it a GREAT week,
