“If you chase two rabbits, both will escape.” – Anonymous

Ask for business. So many things are lost to us for want of asking. Don’t make the mistake of thinking that you can succeed in business without asking for it. Let everyone know what you do. Give everyone a card. Let everyone know that they can call you for a free initial consultation that may include a Calorie Expenditures Report custom-tailored to their body weight. Or offer a free six-page Initial Assessment Report. After you’ve done so much for the prospect up-front and without charge, they will feel somewhat obligated to work with you to some degree. Spending time with prospects is a good avenue for acquiring new business… but don’t forget to ask them for it!

“Ask and it shall be given you; seek and ye shall find;
knock and it shall be opened unto you.” – Bible, Matthew 7:7

Don’t be afraid to make mistakes. You will learn more from your mistakes than you do from your successes. Try not to keep making the same mistakes over and over. View every disaster for what it is: an opportunity to learn and improve.

“Good judgment comes from experience and…
experience comes from bad judgment.” – Anonymous
