"There are no secrets. There are no tricks. If anything, it's the opposite: Whether you're a pro athlete or a guy running a business or driving a truck or going to school, it's simple. Ask yourself where you are now, and where you want to be instead. Ask yourself what you're willing to do to get there. Then make a plan to get there. Act on it." - Tim Grover
Yesterday I got active in growing the tutoring business. I contacted the Chamber of Commerce to explore membership; contacted ISU's small business development center to attend a seminar; contacted a respected tutor in town to establish a mentoring relationship; contacted Heartland Community College about the possibility of tutoring there. This list came from about 15 minutes of sitting quietly with pencil and paper to brainstorm possible networking ideas.
Perspective rarely changes by sitting still; adventures seldom happen in the living room. Action makes the difference.
