“When it is obvious that the goals cannot be reached, don’t adjust the goals, focus on adjusting the action steps.”Confucius
I recently wrote that to Triple Your Revenues you firstly need FOCUS. We need, as Tony Robins suggests, “to concentrate our power…to master anything…”

FOCUS alone is not enough.
I met a business owner recently. He was intently focused on increasing his revenues from $3,000,000 to $5,000,000. I asked why? He replied “because at $5,000,000 someone else will take an interest in the business.” This was his exit strategy.
I asked how? He answered, “as he always had by referrals”. But referrals had only gotten him to $3,000,000 for the past number of years. What new action did he have planned? Would he:
• establish an outside sales force? “No tried that once it didn’t work!”
• establish an inside sales force? “No tried that once it didn’t work!”
• enhance his customer strategy to win more referrals? “Huh?”
In reality this business owner was just an “order taker” and the only way he was going to 
increase his revenue by just 67% was to wait and ride the wave of the next major economic expansion. Anyone know when that will be?
