When you start something new it can be tough to get the ball rolling.

For instance, if I was to learn water-skiing right now, the odds are good that I would be pretty damn hopeless when I first begun.

In fact, I’d feel like a bit of a fool.

And it’s like that whenever you start anything new, isn’t it?

Years ago, at the introduction of the internet I remember doing speeches to some quite high profile business owners on internet marketing.

Truth is, I didn’t know all that much. But neither did anyone else so in the first few years it was a bit like the blind leading the blind.

And I was a little less blind than others.

Anyway, that’s not my point.

My point is an extended family member of whom I was working with at the time looked at all of my documentation from that report and said “What do you think you are doing. You write terribly. Awful. You need to take a course and learn how to do it properly.”

Anyway, now people say to me “Ah, yes. It’s easy for you because you’re a great writer.”

Well, yes… it is now.

But only because I have done it over and over and over and over again.

I was terrible once.

And you will be terrible at things too when you first start them.

But I saw a quote yesterday which basically spells out the way we should approach perfection…

“Imperfect action beats perfect inaction every time” Mitch Axelrod.

So the next time you think about not bothering to do something because  you won’t do it very well, think about this and remember you cannot lose by actually TAKING ACTION.

And the more you take action, the better you are going to be.

Period.

For instance, some people won’t send out a sales letter because they don’t think they can write the perfect letter.

But you should forget about perfection.

Dan Kennedy has a saying “good enough is good enough.”

The most important thing is to move.

Nobody ever climbed a mountain by sitting at the bottom and trying to work out how to do it perfectly.

They moved.

Of course they had their tools… their jumpers… their climbing gear…etc.

But they made their errors along the way.

And it’s the same with getting more customers, isn’t it.

Sometimes you’ll run into challenges. But if you have the right toolkit - http://www.morecustomersmadeeasy.com – then the journey is a heck of a
lot easier.
