Minions were right, Bestseller IF YOU CAN'T CALM THE WATERS LEARN TO RIDE THE WAVES http://www.tinyurl.com/ridewaves #amazonbestseller #ridethewaves A couple of years back I heard Jack Canfield suggest setting audacious goals as a strategy for great achievement. I set the goal of providing a positive message or resource to 500,900 people and of "If you can't calm the waters learn to ride the waves" becoming a bestseller. Well, I fell way short of documentable numbers in 2014, so I reset my goals in 2015. Now the blessing: Here we are in late October and because of the insight of Dr. Timothy Moore and the outstanding support of many of you, "If you can't calm the waters learn to ride the waves" has become an Amazon bestseller. AND, with your help and through the resources and technology in the 21st century, posts and messages have already surpassed my goal of reaching 500,900 people in 2015. This doesn't even include Google , Instagram, other social media pages, groups and posts. Then to include the marketing genius of Charles Blair, posts on my behalf by Brian Shanklin and many of you, Duru Interviews, Joytalk, videos and radio shows with Cyrus Webb,Ona Brown, Tina Hobson, Renee Sunday and more, who knows the reach! Oh what a feeling! I just want to encourage all to set audacious goals and encourage you to be relentless in your pursuit. Charles Blair called these goals, "BHAG" Big Hairy Audacious Goals (Not sure where you got it from Charles but I love it). Note, just as I did, should you fall short, take what you can use, double your efforts and begin again! Blessings to you all. I will continue to reach out and to contribute to focus with you, on being the change we want to see in the world. So what other audacious goals and dreams do you persistently stretch to meet? Stay with it. Persist and believe, continue to help others reach their goals along the way and yours will be met as well.
