Weekend Inspiration: One Degree

By Michelle Shaeffer | 6 Comments

What difference could it make if you could put in just one degree more effort towards reaching your goals?

My challenge to you this week – throw 1% more passion and energy into your business and see what happens.  Stay up a little bit later or get up a little bit earlier.  Reach out to one more person and build a connection.  Spend that extra hour to get your new report done.  What can you do to push just a little more forward?

“When I was young, I observed that nine out of ten things I did were failures.  So I did ten times more work.”  ~George Bernard Shaw

“Put your heart, mind, intellect and soul even to your smallest acts.  This is the secret of success.”  ~Swami Sivananda

    This is such great advice, Michelle. I am game. I started yesterday morning thinking I didn’t have the motivation to write a single post for next week. I forced myself to do one, which somehow turned into a 4-post series starting tomorrow.

    For me, it is simply forcing myself to move beyond that “I can’t do anymore” thought that leads into much greater things.

      That “I can’t do this…” is where we’re just about to get results most of the time, I think. :)

    Okay, I am willing to take the challenge. I could use a little more passion and steam to get things really accomplished.

    I love he Simple Truths videos, they are so inspiring.

    Thanks Michelle.

    Thats an awesome idea but the problem with 1% is that i cant calculate it. I might do 10% assuming that it’s only 1% :)
